You bring to mind Tyson Gay&#...Outstanding article!<br />You bring to mind Tyson Gay's remarks a couple of times about his body having to get used to running 9.71 and then 9.69. I'm guessing that he's training so hard that that accounts for his groin injury, etc. Remember how Michael Johnson strained his hamstring when he ran his WR 19.32?<br />It's easy for physiologists to make predictions of 9.40, 1:39, etc. The reality of ultimate human tolerances for the training and for the then unprecedented speeds, however, may put the kibosh on those predictions. The men may already be there. The women already are. Usain Bolt may have already seen his best days. Just as in Olympic lifting wrist injuries seem to show that they are approaching their limits, Bolt's and Gay's and Bekele's injuries may show the same.John Nehmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09143181078741467658noreply@blogger.com
