Yea he should be insane in the 200 meters because his starts aren't the best but he gains speed at like 30-40 meters. Looking forward to seeing that in the future

Quite honestly I think he could run a 400m next olympics with an outstanding time if he trained for it.

[Jakerz]

He'd probably be good at it, but I don't know if he'd have the stamina for gold in it, unless he really concentrated on training for just that

He has four years. You can get stamina for a 400m is less than one if you train correctly Remember he runs works out every day.

Team GB kicked ass this weekend !!

Bolt was amazing. He didn't really need to worry about the time as he can beat it anytime he likes. If he could get his starts right I bet he could get close to 9 seconds....that would be crazy.

Yea if I was him I wouldn't worry about 400m, it's a lot different race then 100-200m, I'd spend the next 4 years perfecting his starts

Yeah, his start wasn't very good.
Meh, its probably just cause I run distance that I want everyone to run farther

I can run a fast 400m but I prefer the 800m Which is actually middle distance.
Fuck Cross Country.
So actually I'm middle distance I guess.

I tried 400m last year, ran it in 54.8 or something, which is shit as my competitors were running under 52 Friend won Ofssa (All of Ontario) with a time of 48.something :\ Made me look terrible lol
800m I'm terrible at, don't know what's different about it but I get a horrible time lol

Lol you would beat me, just barely.
I run around 54.9-55.3. That was my range of times this year. I didn't place anywhere I sucked.
My 800m was 2:09 something, got 3rd for states for my division in our relay. So we'll see what happens this year

[Jakerz]

Yea that's really good for 800m My time was always over 2:20 if I remember correctly

[Niche]

Its not that good.
For my age is alright but this year I need to be getting around 2:00 Flat and breaking 2:00 next year.

How'd the other 2 jamaicans do?

Asafa came in fifth I believe, I don't know about the other.

According to nbcolympics.com, the final is scheduled for the 20th at 10:20PM. I'm not sure if that's in Beijing time or EST though.

[Jakerz]

Ahh Remind me to check Wednesday

[sonic]

omg.
This topic on the olympics has less posts than a topic about blood, hatred, and other violent stuff.
Damn. We all suck/

[Eeyore]

Some of that will be because of people coming in the same position, for example in the 100m womens sprint yesterday there was 1 gold and 2 silvers and no bronze because 2nd and 3rd got the exact same time.

Pretty much accurate. I think I saw a swim where two tied for 3rd, but I don't remember what it was.
