Usain Bolt

This guy is absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!

Not only did he break his own record in the 100m, he absolutely SMASHED his record in the 200m - an amazing 19.19 seconds!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! They were putting time into distance and that worked out at 2m!! 2m!!! He was running that much faster than he was last year! It's insane!!!

BUT, that was the first race that I've actually seen the guy work. Every other time it just looks like Bolt is taking a jog while the others are busting their arses off but today he was gritting his teeth and really going for that record. But I don't think that anyone was expecting him to shave that much time off the record - let alone break it again. He was saying in an interview that he was tired and his training regime had been a bit slack because he had an injury. Well, if that's what he can do when he hasn't been training well, then what the hell would he have achieved if he was on top form?! It's like, when Bolt's in the line up, the race is on for second place because no one is ever anywhere near him. In this final, they were saying that's the biggest gap they've ever seen anyone win by. And what's even more amazing is that the top 5 all ran under 20 seconds! So it's great for them because they all achieved PBs SBs and NRs. Such a great race.

I remember the days when the sprints were all about the Americans. But the Jamaicans have absolutely dominated in the last few years. And it doesn't look like that will change! Those records are so ridiculous that commentators were saying that the people that would even come close to ever beating them aren't even born yet. NO ONE ALIVE is capable of touching them. How amazing is that!!!! The Jamaican women as well have been incredible.

And what a performance by Sharman in the 110m hurdles. That guy is so funny. I hung out with him a few years back - very much a charmer and ladies man. Think I'll leave it at that!! But he did so well, finishing 4th in the final and getting a new PB of 13.30 - the 4th fastest time in the UK in that event. Is that record still held by Colin Jackson? I can't remember if anyone broke that.....

And I'm sorry, but HOW BUFF IS WALLACE SPEARMON?!?!?!?!? You know me, I'm an absolute sucker for the light skin and light eye boys and he is a very fine specimen indeed! LOL!!!

Sorry babes - you know it's all about you...but I simply HAD to mention it!!! I miss you like crazy and can't wait to see you next month!! <3

So yah, I have totally been enjoying the World Championships. The woman's high jump final was pretty gritty as well. I am just so excited for the 2012 Olympics. Wherever I am in the world, I will definitely fly back to London to support the team - and more importantly my friends that compete. I am sooooo proud of you all!!!

Go GBR!!!
