she was actually 19 not 18,and there is no way in hell an under 20 female can run that fast,clean.No woman can run that fast clean,at any age,just as no man can run sub 9.9 clean.
I was at this meet. I've been to professional meets in Eugene, Oregon. This is my 1st meet in southern Florida. The turnout was maybe around 5k. What shocked me was that the crowd was like 99.99% black. I would say 50% or more of these were Jamaicans. I think I've heard that some southern California meets are like this. About 30% of the crowd that were seated near the finish line left after the 100m final.
Extremely windy and extremely fast. It was looking like she might never run to her potential again. We'll have to assume this is on the level. She's always welcome back on this performance basis, just spare us the personal grievances.

Was the timing system working correctly? Regardless, I bet she had a post-race celebratory toke.
This really adds some drama to the Botswana event on the 29th.
SAFP will make her debut, and Richardson is scheduled as well. You have to give Richardson an advantage in terms of race fitness; she seems in top form But SAPF is so good and so experienced, a victory for her in this event would not surprise. Also, Richardson can sometimes self destruct mentally, but she seems to be in a great place right now.
This is a huge psychological moment for Richardson. A victory over SAPF would really let her know she is back as good as ever, and send a message to the Jamaican sprinters, as well.
Im not sure if ETH or Jackson are entered, but Richardson’s rebound makes the women’s 100 that much better going forward.
Except they are in different events SAFP in the 100 and SR the 200m at the meet on the 29th

Is this the first time you left your gated community in Weston? How hard did you clutch your pearls?
You're also an idiot. The stadium holds 5000 people. It was maybe 60% full. Backstretch was sparsely populated. Plenty of seats in front stretch also.
It also wasn't "50% Jamaican." Seriously is this your first time seeing Black people outside of national geographic? Most were AMERICAN with caribbean roots. It would help if you actually talked to the people sitting next to you.
At +0.0, it would be 10.73. At +2.0 (highest legal wind), it would be 10.63 (PR). Either way it's a giant all-conditions world lead -- for context even at the worst possible wind of -2.0, it would be a world lead at 10.86.
maybe more of a difference 0.0 to 2.1 then 2.0 to 4.1? i wonder how that works...eventually, you get to the point where your legs can only move so fast, and the wind is not making you THAT MUCH faster.
True.
The reason why the wind speed in a 100m sprint would have a greater difference from 0.0 meters/second to 2.1 meters/second than between 2.0 meters/second to 4.1 meters/second is due to the physics of running. As Richardson (or any other athlete) runs, they encounter air resistance, which slows them down. When there is a tailwind, such as in the case of wind speeds between 2.0 meters/second to 4.1 meters/second, the athlete experiences a boost in speed due to reduced air resistance. However, this boost in speed reaches a limit as the athlete approaches their maximum velocity.
When wind speeds are between 0.0 meters/second to 2.1 meters/second, the effect of the wind is much more pronounced as it provides a greater boost in speed than when wind speeds are higher. This is because the athlete is still accelerating and has not yet reached their maximum velocity, so the impact of the tailwind is more significant. As the athlete approaches their maximum velocity, the impact of the tailwind decreases, and the difference in speed between wind speeds of 2.0 meters/second to 4.1 meters/second becomes less significant.
In short, the effect of the wind on Richardson's speed would be most pronounced when she was accelerating and had not yet reached her maximum velocity. As she approach her maximum velocity, the impact of the wind would become less significant, and the difference in speed between wind speeds of 2.0 meters/second to 4.1 meters/second would become smaller.
Huh?
With a strong tailwind, maximum velocity increases also.
Not a sprints aficionado here, but isn't SCR the person who chose to be coached by Denis Mitchell and to train with Justin Gatlin's group? Based on that alone, an enormous amount of skepticism is warranted towards any fast times she puts up.
I'm honestly confused how anyone's default assumption can be that she's clean.
What shocked me was that the crowd was like 99.99% black. I would say 50% or more of these were Jamaicans.
I think I've heard that some southern California meets are like this.
You have no idea what you're talking about. I've been to lots of track meets in Southern California over the past two decades. I've never once seen a track meet that was anywhere close to 99.99% black or 50% Jamaican.

He heard that black people lived in SC, so he assumed they must be just taking over everything. He’s still surprised that Black people can be anything beyond minstrels.
