El gofer Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 A new hero!! Savannah Sanitoa of Amreican Samoa in the Womens 100 metres!! Finished over 3 seconds behind the winner. She is absolutely huge and literally thundered out of the blocks!!! Fair play to her. Any one see it? If not it will be on youtube very soon and is well worth a viewing!!! 20.1.09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great effort and I think it may have been a personal best for her too. In the previous heat there was a Laotian and a girl from Kiribati, again not countries renowned for their sporting achievements and not surprisingly both were well off the qualifying places - but once again one of them got a pb. Achievement comes in all forms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
franco Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Not a big fan of watching athletics but it's been brill so far. The women's 10K final on Saturday was possibly the best distance race I've ever seen, Jess Ennis winning the heptathlon was superb, but Usain Bolt's 100m win was just astonishing.

GiGi Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Thing is, Bolt never goes all out for the whole race! He slows down a wee bit right at the end just so he can break his own record again. Peter Weatherson is the greatest player since Ritchie, and should be assigned 'chairman for life' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maccaboy Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Aye hes defo on something that cant be detected yet i recon ! You might be right, but I hope he's the real deal - the guy's a real character and some athlete. Never seen such a good sprinter clown around so much seconds before a final.

leyTON Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 the problem of course - over the course of his career (before making a mockery of the 400 and 800 metre records) bolt will set records that no human can ever beat leytons official prediction - bolt will run 9.35 before his 26th birthday that record will stand for 40 years by that tiem humans wont exist in any case We are not home and dry, we could not even be said to be home and vigorously towelling ourselves off!

leyTON Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 anyone see the SA athlete getting a gender test? its going to take weeks apparently surely just pop his/her kegs down, and if theres an object resembling the baton for the 4 x 100 then shes disqualified We are not home and dry, we could not even be said to be home and vigorously towelling ourselves off!
