That is RIDICULOUS how he drops a field including a young Ovett and WR-holder Fiasconaro, in a time only three-tenths off the WR. Incredible. Too bad we can't tell what the final 200m was. |

After his surprise victory in Rome, Sušanj disappeared from the athletics scene. By that time, he was already married and a father of two, and quickly realized he would be unable to prepare for the 1976 Summer Olympics while working at the same time. Between athletics and supporting his family, Sušanj chose the latter.[13] Eventually, he did compete at the Montreal Olympics, where he placed 6th in the 800 m final, clocking 1:45.75.[1] By his account, Sušanj was not in optimal form in Montreal because he was serving the army that year.[3] A month after the Olympics he retired from the sport, pursuing a physical education diploma. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luciano_Susanj pity he couldn't have trained full time after this. Based on this race he would have been pushed El Cabello all the way. |

maybe low/mid-1'43 ( they ran in lanes for ?350m, whereas nowdays they break at 150m & he got little bit of drafting before bell ( not much )) he did run nice splits of ~ 51/53 from vid, so pretty good it was after all a 1'44.0 time which was superb at the time, but i don't think you can claim nearly coupla secs of that |
