Rio Olympics 2016

[Baxter]

Didn't think that Johnson record would go for ages. Had that guy run close to that before?

43.48 was his previous PB

 

[Lennon7]

Aye, ten or so mins now...

I think I'll just about pull through for 10. Dropped off on the sofa about half an hour ago though

 

[Red Pavan]

Nope. Jeremy Wariner was second fastest at 43.45.

 

[paulscholes18]

What's the significance of that?

Wide bend and can't see where anyone else is until the last 100

 

[U99ted]

This Canadian girls fit. Might nip over to Rio

You'll have to sneak past the mighty Ashton Eaton

 

[Jippy]

Thiam lezzing off with KJT would be worth a watch.

I dropped off about a second after Jess got silver yesterday. Urgh, work tomorrow!

 

[Sigma]

Aww, she's crying. What dreams are made of

 

[Moonred]

That 400m was incredible. And now it's time..

 

[TheNewEra]

Come on Bolt do yourself proud!!

 

[Sigma]

Now for the best part of the entire olympics

 

[Sylar]

Hope Bolt smashes Gatlin tbh.
WOuld be great to see a hattrick of Gold for Bolt with a WR as well.

 

[Rightnr]

What the heck is that intro for 100m final. Seems everyone is Superbowling sport nowadays.

 

[Jippy]

I kind of have begrudging respect for Gatlin. He shrugs off the haters.

 

[RobinLFC]

This is going to be special

 

[Sigma]

Some boos for Gatlin

 

[Dante]

Arsenal fans in the Olympic stadium.

 

[Sigma]

What the heck is that intro for 100m final. Seems everyone is Superbowling sport nowadays.

They are going to introduce them once more as well

 

[Bubz27]

What the heck is that intro for 100m final. Seems everyone is Superbowling sport nowadays.

They did it for the women yesterday as well. Apparently introduced in Beijing at the Worlds.

 

[Ubik]

'Mon Bolt, fart in Gatlin's face.

 

[Reckless Full Back]

Did Bolt change his shoes?

 

[Flamingo Purple]

Don't understand the boos, drugs or no drugs he's an incredible athlete and deserves respect.

 

[Rightnr]

Is it just me or is Bolt wearing a different outfit for the final?

 

[Sylar]

Don't understand the boos, drugs or no drugs he's an incredible athlete and deserves respect.

Erm...

 

[Pink Moon]

Come on Bolt.

 

[Reckless Full Back]

Don't understand the boos, drugs or no drugs he's an incredible athlete and deserves respect.

 

[sammsky1]

That 400m was incredible. And now it's time..

OMFG!!!! What a run!!!!!

 

[Reckless Full Back]

Is it just me or is Bolt wearing a different outfit for the final?

Pretty sure his shoes weren't gold for the semi.

 

[Dante]

Bolt breaking 100m and 200m in Beijing and then breaking both world records again in the next WC was the best I've seen. Unheard of.

It was great but I've always felt a bit cheated that he didn't run flat-out all the way. I know it's a bit weird to say this, but my memories of that race are kind of bitter-sweet.

Van Niekirk is right up there. Maybe even a little ahead, for me. I've always had a personal preference for the 400m.

 

[Bubz27]

I'm nervous.

 

[K2K]

Overslept and missed the 400m.

4 alarms missed to boot .

 

[Skills]

YES

 

[Bubz27]

Get in! Bad start and he still does it!

 

[paulscholes18]

Bolt 9.8, not as fast as I was hoping

 

[Pink Moon]

Get in.

 

[Rightnr]

A bit dissapointing but still awesome.

 

[Rado_N]

No new WR but big win

 

[K2K]

Bolt wins again.

 

[RobinLFC]

He's just unstoppable once he really gets underway. Expected a quicker time tbh but what an athlete, what a champion!
