⇒ mens 200m sprint

Usain Bolt FTW!

Bolt ran the whole distance this time and left the field 10m behind as he crossed the finish in a new world record time of 19.30s!

notes on the race:

• Bolt is a fun kind of guy--you can't help get swept up in his tomfoolery (posing) and boogeying-down after winning.


• Walter Dix reminds me of Lil' Jon


• Shane Crawford is f#cking huge!. How does someone that bulky run that fast?


• spare a thought for Spearmon, who was disqualied for taking one half-step out of his lane

Also watched the 110m hurdles semis. Dayron Robles (sp?) is a pimp. He's the favourite and all, but how many athletes can run like him while passing for H&R Block's finest? Add to that the enormous gold cross which threatens to impale him through the throat should he fall...
