A guy ran the 400 meter hurdles, qualified, and then ran the 400 m run 30 minutes later, faltered badly and was vanned off. Actually he just quit and walked off. I cant believe he thought he could pull that off as he barely qualified in the hurdles in an epic struggle.

I actually saw both races, that Tyson Gay was flying. As far as the other guy goes, you know you must be in trouble when you take a delay of game penalty in track and field.

Michael Phelps' performance in the 400 I.M. dwarfed what Rudy Gay did tonight.

400M is the most grueling race, I can't imagine with hurdles too.

It is a total leg amputator.
The 800 m is somewhat of a killer also.
The marathon is just plain stupid if you get a sprint at the finish.
Ahhh its just plain stupid anyway.

The day a man wins the 400m and the 800 m will be the day you see the greatest athlete ever. The diff. in the body conformation for these two races is amazing.

100 m 200 m, real muscular guys... 400 m they slim down a bit(except Michael Johnson), 800 m and they turn to greyhounds. After that, 5' 6" 125 lbs is about the right size.

can the both do it on the BIG stage? both will probably run on the 4X100 teams too. i would also think that Gay will be back next weekend in the 200m trials.
