9.71 Tyson Gay

[MJ]

.. and he's two meters behind Usain Bolt who runs 100 meters in 9.58!

How bad fo you feel when you are 0.03 of a second behind the world record but theres a guy a mile down the track?

It was a spectacular run.


This deserves more than the sports section.

Re: 9.71 Tyson Gay

Love how Bolt still has time to look around crossing the line.. Wonder will anyone ever beat his record now.

Fair play to Gay though, you have to feel bad for him.

He reckons he can run 9.4.

Re: 9.71 Tyson Gay

I find it astounding that he has taken such a massive margin off the world record. To me, it's the equivalent of us landing on Mars.

I think he may just break the 18 second barrier in the 200 mts.

I think it's going to be a very long time before we see anything like this fella again.

Re: 9.71 Tyson Gay

ya that was utterly insane...

really appreciating how wild this guy is. i used to run the 100m, 4x100 relay and 200m, and i still can't comprehend just how fast these lightning bolts get out of the blocks. their speed is so superior to the curve... it's scary.

i hate to say it, yeah he's fast, but physique means nothing when it comes to cheating in sports, anyone that 100% thinks this guy is clean is very naive

I guess thats the problem with being as successful as he is, everyone will always say your on drugs and how do you prove otherwise? Take all the drug tests, pass them and people will still say "oh it must be some undetected substance"

Re: 9.71 Tyson Gay

having never competed before in track I would objectively mention that Tyson appears to be proportionately much bigger and stronger than his opponents in that race.

i have seen michael johnson run live before, that was awesome.

Based on what? The fact that he's that fast? There's never been anyone that tall who's been able to run that fast - simple physics. His strides are stupidly long and his leg speed is very fast. I'd say quite the opposite - that anyone that thinks he's on something is being unneccessarily cynical
