The 200 metre world record is the most awesome object in athletics. In thirty years, it has only been broken three times. In 1978, I think, Pietro Mennea broke it in Mexico City. It then stood until 1996 and the Atlanta Olympics, when Michael Johnson broke it with one of the most awesome runs I ever saw. And Johnson's record has stood until now

It was amazing wasn't it? The 10k swim was great too. I am loving the Olympics this year, it is well timed with my protracted and leisurely house move so I am packing lots of boxes in front of the TV.

Awesome indeed! And while he seemed to be strolling at the park, the rest of the athletes looked like they were running for their lives... and losing.
