They’re running on the fast track at Olympic Stadium. Here’s proof: Trinidad and Tobago’s Richard Thompson is the only man ever to run 100 meters in under 10 seconds — and finish seventh.
Just a dash of perspective for anyone criticizing Torpedo Thompson for not bringing home the gold. He performed admirably. Before Bolt hit the scene, 9.98 would have been enough to medal.
It’s a whole new world out there right now and the man flew our flag high.
No need to apologize.
