¶2012 OG: m200–Usain Bolt 19.32 repeats OG gold

[Jasontonice]

Hopefully no one will be surprised if only one Jamaican gets a medal. Because it's extremely likely.

dumb post right?

[j-a-m]

Bolt clearly shut down, no?

Yeah, looked like he did.

[JRM]

Great race. Two repeats today of former WRs (1:41.73 and 19.32 (+0.4) -- same wind, even!). Why did Bolt let off the gas at the end? He probably wouldn't have broken the WR, but could have knocked out a mid-19.2 maybe.

LMAO World record da **** outta here. Blake was hauling ass at the end, Bolt was lucky

I have to give you credit. You never give up.

There's many things Bolt is; lucky is way down the list ('cept in picking his parents).

I was mostly cheering for Weir the WHOLE time!

[tracknut2012]

Bolt blazes to victory in 19.32

Blake second in 19.44


Weir third in 19.84



Jamaica 1 2 3


Jamaica is the sprint capital of the world.

World record was out of reach when he was looking at the clock. Yes, shut it down.

I'm not sure I can buy that. It's pretty difficult to tell exactly how far you are from the finish, and calculate how long it will take you to get there. IMO he just decided the win was enough today. If he were really going for the record, he wouldn't have been looking at the clock (until after the finish), at Blake or anywhere else other than directly ahead.

Wow, even the same wind as MJ?

Are you ATK's special friend?

Just remembered this pearl from you before the 100:

Bolt has yet to crack a smile. He's nervous, possible false start.

Your keyboard expresses your immense imbecility better than I ever could. Further comment is superfluous.

I can't, I'm too salty right now . Bolt denies Blake of two gold medals, I guess I gotta wait till Rio 2016.

[errolM]

I can't, I'm too stupid right now . Bolt denies Blake of two gold medals, I guess I gotta admit my total lack of knowledge.

Fixed that for ya.

Jog on.

[Pelpa]

Next; Taekwondo Gold.

[running4life]

Congrats to Jamaica, I was kinda upset to see Bolt and blake so standoffish towards Werin. Again congrats to all the winners

[chuku69]

LEGEND!!!

Good call

Marvelous call.

Clearly! Still he would not have challenged his WR this time.

Oh look the sensitive type, catching feelings on the internet over what another person says.

Total fucking failure he was couldn't beat his PB which is the WR let's take the gold from him.

[einnod23]

Flo-Bolt!

Wasn't able to upload my vid! 10-year-old innanet's slow as the 6-Train! (LOL!). Props to Bolt. I said it before and I'll say it again.....Bolt and Blake: the Carl Lewis and Leroy Burrell of this generation! Both of y'all better show up at Penn!

Bolt was .12 faster than Blake in both sprints. Anyone talking abt luck is an *ss. The man is simmply the greatest sprinter of all time!!!

Michael Johnson's assessment.

[kevinsdad]

In Bolt's post race BBC interview he said he knew on the homestretch that the world record was out of reach.

[errolM]

One for UK football fans (and ATK, probably):

Yes, well, that's OK, but could he do it on a wet February Wednesday in Stoke?

[Fortis4Eva]

Same here ..... he's the real hero of this sweep.

[Weights&Shoes]

I feel bad for Lemaitre. Passed on the 100 to have a better chance to medal here and ran a weak curve in the semi's.
