Track & Field World Champ's

[jb_from_texas]

is anyone watching the champs?

Not that T&F is that popular in the States but it's near and dear to my heart.

Check them out on VS network and NBC today and next Saturday.

Noteable results:

US regained 100 title - Tyson Gay 9.85

Alan Webb advances to semi's in 1500

 (leads world in mile and 1500 this year)

 (set US mile record earlier this summer - 3:46.91)

check it out.

I'm glad to see someone else following this.  Webb is the man!  Do you think Gay will break the WR soon?

Nope, but one of the LSU wide receivers is ranked 2nd to the fastest sprinter in the world.

I sure hope the Fighting Tigers can get the ball to him and watch him turn on the after burners.

I believe in the right race he can.  I was a bit surprised it wasnt a little faster at World's.  He has great top end speed.  If it wasnt for an insanely fast 19.32 WR by MJ in the 200 i believe more people would know his name.  19.66 into a head wind is quite incredible itself.

Kara Goucher (married to Adam, 5k) placed third in the 10k.  Very well strategically ran.

Hopefully Webb can do what the world knows what he is capable of...3:28 or better.
