Powell wins in 5.64--video

In this video, it looks like maybe Powell was up too early:

What should be added to figure a 60m time?

0.84 or 0.85, I would guess, according to his 50-60m splits in his 9.77 runs...

That would give him 6.48 or 6.49, which would be a current world lead in the 60m, and would be a fantastic 60m indoor season opener.

In Powell's 9.74, he ran his first 50m in an incredible 5.49, and made 60m in 6.32, with a 50-60m split of 0.83, which if used here would have given him a 6.47 60m

So, 6.47-6.49 for a 60m equivalent, what an opener!

He's in sub 10 shape ALREADY. I predict sub 9.75 in June-September.

Good run by Nesta Carter already.

Jamaica 4x100 will be epic.

Asafa-Carter-Blake-Bolt. Sub 37...In that particular order.

Sub 37....kabooom.

5.64 = 6.45 = 9.93

Also, Bracy's 6.08 = 5.69, good for close 4th here.

epic, yes

sub-37, yes

order? no

I think it should be Carter-Blake-Bolt-Powell

Plumbing--

How do you figure that 5.64 = 6.45 ?

That would require a 0.81 50m-60m split, which, I believe, nobody has done under legal conditions.

Gay did 0.80 with a +4.1 in '08, Bolt and Greene (and likely Gay) have all gone 0.82.

Powell himself has never done better than 0.83, and that was at his absolute peak.

Assuming a 0.81 split for him is IMO unsupportable.

Good catch. That was from WAVA table, IAAF is 6.50 for 1208 pts, more congruent with your argument. 100 is 9.99

you got a source for this ??

Yes, I have a source...but didn't you forget to say "MORON"?

To exacerbate the tension that exists in what passes for your mind, I would also note that Powell ran a 5.52 50m in his Zurich 9.77.

Vent, it must be clear to you by now that I have absolutely no regard for you personally.

Posting information of interest to others, but witholding information of interest to yourself, gives me pleasure as a result of the treatment that I have received from you.

Enjoy it...and get your hands out of your Star Wars pajamas, dammit!

depends what info is coming

if lack of it, then you will be exalted by your non-de-plume

i've seen 5.54 & 6.39 for his athens 9.77

i'd be interested in these "zurich splits"

i don't waste time with morons, but i'd like to see quotes

no

it's making crap up

his 9.74 was easing down

being generous, that was 9.70 flat-out

using 6.39 in his athens 9.77, it indicates his rieti 60m split wouda been by simple proportion

~ 6.35

impress me or be moron

"impress me or be moron" (followed by a caveman sound)

Tell me, what brand of hat best fits your sloped forehead?

moron

offer evidence of 6.32

ahh, that's more like it!
