    2016 Rio Olympics

    I agree. This is a fight for the bronze. I think Bolt and Merritt will battle for 1st and 2nd. Degrasse has spent himself and will get in the 20.0x range. I'm betting on Guyliev and Lemaitre for 3rd in 19.9x. A dream come true none the less. There has been a one white person rule in the world...

    2016 Outdoor Track Season

    Wow, that is a good point. There hasn't been this many white guys running 10.0 times since the 80's. If this rate keeps up, odds are that one or two of them will enter the 9.9x realm. But sad to think that the 90's and the '00's had only one white in each going in the 10.0x range without...

    2016 Outdoor Track Season

    What frustrates me was that John Teeters was soooo close to battling for 3rd place on the team. A PR in the mid 9.9's would have gotten him past the semi-finals. Repeating it in the Finals would have let him beat Marvin Bracy. Cleary, John is 10 flat runner. He just needs to up his game to the...

    So that begs the question, who were the previous white Americans who held the adult 100m record?

    Vladislav Dologodin

    This is the closest I could find: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1996_European_Cup_(athletics). But the results were far different. Vlad was just another 10.2 sprinter.

    german sprinters

    Manfred Kokot Mystery For some reason Manfred Kokot has been lost to history. None of the top ten White sprinter lists on the internet have Manfred Kokot as a 10 second electronically timed sprinter. But yet, I found the wikipedia website for the 1972 Olympic 100m has Manfred Kokot running a...
