Champion 6931 Bellingham, Washington | Subject: spoiler 100m ResultsBolt again! 9.58 World record in Berlin!<script src="../../script/fancy.js" type="text/javascript">16 August 2009 - Berlin, Germany – With a performance that defies imagination, Usain Bolt set a new 100m World record of 9.58 on the second evening of the 12th IAAF World Championships in Athletics at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin. The 22-year-old Jamaican knocked a mind-numbing 0.11 second from the 9.69 record he set at the Olympic Games in Beijing exactly one year ago today. Defending champion Tyson Gay of the USA was second in 9.71, a new national record, and Asafa Powell, the former World record holder was third, in 9.84. * pending the usual ratification procedures Edited by BellinghamSpence 2009-08-16 3:00 PM |

Master 2287 Calgary, Alberta | Subject: RE: Track and Field Championship in Berlin thread Into a slight headwind at that! Good to see him run through the finish and pump his chest afterwards. How low can he go? I could see him beating 9.50. |

Extreme Veteran 606 | Subject: RE: Track and Field Championship in Berlin thread At least Tyson Gay made it into a race this time, Bolt had to actually run the entire 100m's  ...Just think, Gay breaks the American record and still gets beat by .13 of a second. |

Weird. Where'd you find that? I did a quick search and came up with this: Bolt doesn't even like the 400. Bolt said last year he was going to give the 400 a try. He has run it a few times with a pr of 45.28 set in 2007. There are no championships, world or olympic, in 2010 so that is why he wants to give the 400 a shot then. Oh yes, his 9.58 100 was with a .9 tailwind not slight headwind as stated earlier. |
