If I move to Jamaica, will I be a faster runner?
How insanely incredible is Usain Bolt?
How awesome was that 200 meter final?
I must note though that I hate how television coverage seems to be largely ignoring the marathon, especially since I think of the men's marathon as kind of the premier event of the Olympics. I'm very excited to watch it Sunday morning. I hope it's not too warm for them. I hope Meb gets to the podium. Actually, I hope all the Americans do well, but most of all, I just want an amazing race by everyone.
But I'm just too awed by Bolt to really focus on much else. I think I watched the 100 and 200 about 40 times each. Wow.
I mean, I seriously think about it and I can't fathom someone really running that fast. From above, it doesn't look that crazy fast, but when they actually show a track-level view, it blows my mind. Seriously.
I can think of a worse place to live. Jamaica is so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteUsain Bolt is amazing, and I really don't think I can comprehend the human body going that fast. He's something.
I am in sheer awe of Bolt's talent. I was disappointed to read that there will be increased drug testing particularly amongst the Jamaican track athletes. I sincerely hope they are all negative. I am really excited about the men's marathon tomorrow. I have really enjoyed watching the track and field events; so much inspiration. I was so touched by Oscar Pristorius' story and his show of true sportsmanship.
