First time Dutrow after the claim, he is bringing him back on Tuesday at 200m!

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.

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.

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.
