I'm ready. Are you ready? Let's Go!
I saw the race too. The crazy thing is that Bolt can go even faster! The last 10 meters he did not go fully. I think he will keep breaking the record for some years now. I think 9.4 is possible for him!
I didn't see it but I saw him break records at the olmpics. Pretty amazing but I prefer my races tight.
god of lightning indeed. demolished his own record in the 200m moments ago. Again by 11 hundredths of a second bringing it down to 19.19s. once again, as iga said above he seemed to hold back and just cruise through the last 15m-20m. some people feel he can break 19s in the 200. simply astonishing.
yeah that's more fitting. hermes the messenger god with wings on his feet
I was making a pun on his last name. Bolt. Leave it to Iga to suck the fun out of anything with his inane ramblings.

Watching the 100m dash on TV last night from the world championships, in the same stadium in Berlin where 73 years ago Jesse Owens made sporting and world history, left me speechless, jaw-dropped and misty-eyed. Some hours after the event my own words still fail me but I wanted to make this entry today because something worth blogging about has taken place. Something momentous. The best I can do is make a little collection of quotes.
"When Bolt ran 9.69 secs last summer in Beijing, even that seemed an impossible time. To take another 11 hundredths of a second off that defies logic, history and everyone else's biology." - Tom Fordyce, BBC Sport
"The Earth stopped for a second, and he went to Mars." - Maurice Green, former 100m world champion and world record holder
"We've never seen anything like him, and I'm not sure we'll ever see anything like him again." - Michael Johnson, former 100m world champion and world record holder
"I ran the best I could but it was not enough. I believe I put in a championship performance and I am very pleased with the national record. I'm happy he ran 9.5 because I knew he could do it. I'm happy for him." - Tyson Gay, reigning world champion coming into last night's final and US record holder
"Jesse made history here, so I'm going to try to do the same" - Usain Bolt before the race
"I'm ready. Are you ready? Let's go!" - Usain Bolt at the camera seconds before the start of the race
