He is stronger in the 100m. Wouldn't have wanted to run it at the trials? Also saving himself for the relay? |

Because he didn't make the team. |

He made the team. Did you not watch the 100m? The question is, did he even try out for the 200m? |

Because Gatlin wasn't selected for the 200m. Spearman, Mitchell and Young competed in the trails and that's why they competed. Gatlin didn't and wasn't. |

He does not like running the 200 and he did not want to be worn down by training for both events. He will double next year |

Three other Americans placed 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in the trials. I don't believe Gatlin even ran the 200m at the trials. Maybe he doesn't like the 200m. Maybe he sucks at it. Maybe the supplements he uses are geared more toward the 100m. Who knows? |

Vastly different from not entering in the first place. Why say "3 other Americans placed 1st, 2nd and 3rd" when you know Gatlin wasn't even in the race? There, I spelled it out for you. |

It is common for speed/power athletes to be bigger coming out of their fall/prep phase since that is where they do the most volume of lifting. You'll see them "thin" out throughout the competition season as their lifting volume tails off. Secondly why is improving 1 second so astronomical - she didn't go to a powerhouse school, didn't have all the competition of the Big 12 like Ms. Knight - so the room for improvement was rather large. John Smith can coach - period - Ryan Bailey will be an Olympic favorite in 4 years and all you guys will be talking about how he's doping cause he improved so much. Maybe if Ms. Knight would push away from the dinner table and get into the weight room she could be a little faster. She's easily carrying 15 lbs of bad(fat) weight that unnecessary. |
