The 35-40 record is 9.96 and the 40-45 record is 9.93
Gatlin has run 9.80 this year. That's quite a bit faster than 9.93.
How are all these old runners running so fast...
Bolt is no spring chicken himself. He will be 30 y.o. next month.

No other 34+ year old has gone under 9.90
Nope. His name Ber4nard Lagat!
Darrell Green wasn't running track but was the fastest man in the NFL at that age.
0/10
Doping helps some people run fast.
Probably, but when you see what a friggin physical specimen he is in person, trackside, you'll realize he's mastered all phases of his race and that might have a much to do with it. He's also a classy, classy guy in person.
And the inside word is that he was too trusting of those in power and those guiding him...that caused him to test positive.
Yeah, that's not popular here. --I got it from the top of the top of insiders at the OT's. --Personally I have no fixed opinion, just sayin.'
Link?
even if hes not the fastest he is still the best.
Justin your the man! Thanks for everything, go lay it down in Rio man!
Yes.
Linford Christie also comes to my mind (9.87 at 33 y.o, and 9.91 at 34) in another era.

Green never broke a 10.08, and after a few NFL seasons wouldn't have broke 10.20.
Gatlin is histories only sub6.50/13.60/9.80/19.60/44.50split sprinter.
An amazing athlete.

Oh, well, in that case I guess Gatlin is clean. USATF has never hidden a positive before. True story.
There is research that suggests that the benefits of some PEDs continue even after the athlete quits taking them.
So he could still be benefitting even though he has cycled off.
This is why so many people want lifetime bans.
