Usain Bolt
« on: 21 August 2008, 00:44:32 »
Did anyone see this guy run?

He makes the other runners look Distinctly Average

He did the 100metres in 9.69 seconds, the 200metres in 19.30 seconds and what a character just what the sports need :y

I wonder how long it will be before someone beats his World Records?
12 years the 200 metres WR stood at 19.32 ran by Michael Johnson

Yes i did, both my parents have been into athletics since forever, so i seen some folks run. I have NEVER SEEN ANYONE RUN LIKE THAT... Ever. Yet to see the 200 but the guy  only 'ran' about 70 meters of the 100 and celebrated the last 30, crossed the line with a gangly jog, 3 strides ahead, with his arms in the air and head to the sky, and STILL smashed the world record. What time would he have done if hed tried?
I could never get into athletics, dont get it? Yeah yeah you can run jump throw, whatever. Its got to have wheels if you want my attention, but this guy makes Ed Mosses look slow. By the way, i bet the 400 will end up his best event? Only a pound mind.

Sure I heard he had only been running 4 months as well  :o

Will be more good to come from him I'm sure!

Apparently he has an 8ft long stride too.

Would have loved to have seen him run flat out in the 100m though, I said to my other half at the time that he might even have broken into the 9.5s.

Great to watch though  :)
