I could run that fast, but well, I don't want to :^^^^: my fastest hundred metre time was 3 weeks Laughing3

My son claims he can run a 100 in about 13 seconds. He's just turned 13 and spends about 12 hours of every day at the keyboard or in front of one type of screen or another (PC, DS, TV, etc.) Umm, right. I think *I* might be able to do in in about 15 seconds, assuming I don't pull something in the first few strides. Maybe he meant 100 feet.

if was an avid athlete, I would probably agree with him, but then you included his days activities, maybe he means his time on a game or something like that? 100 feet might be more accurate however. Smile

Bolt is in a league of his own!!!!

The 200m final is tomorrow at 20:35 local Berlin time. They are 6 hours ahead so that would make it 14:35 EST (2:35pm). CBC should have some coverage at the time... maybe... cbc.ca will have it streaming for sure.

200m Men's Final race is going to start very shortly... cbc.ca streaming it live.

New world record!!! 19.19. Wow.

by shabbs on Thu Aug 20, 2009 2:40 pm

Previous world record was 19.30 - set by him in Beijing of course.

Next closest runner today was over .5 seconds away.

HOLY CRAP!

It was remarkable to watch - he was so far ahead of everyone it was not even funny.
