Felix ran a PB 21.69 to win the 200m. That puts her at #4 all-time behind FloJo, Marion Jones, and Merlene Ottey.

Jones was aided by altitude as well as drugs. Fastest since Ottey '90.
She destroyed a stellar field.

Very impressive. And everyone knows that Felix has been clean.
WR in london is looking doable. she had a piss porr RT
Not surprised at all. Her 100 times indicated that her speed is back to its old form. Which means her 200 should be back as well.
In addition she got some good speed endurance from 400 training last year. So she built her base then added speed.
Perfectly sound multi-year training, and here is the result. No surprise at all.
I would be surprised if she doesn't PR again before or at the Olympics. 21.5 is not a stretch for her. The next few years will probably be her fastest. I really hope she stays around to her mid-30's, she is so good for the sport. Another 9-10 years of her as the face of the women's team would be great.

Hope this performance allows her to drop the 100 ( for London) with no regrets.

She looked so awesome. I think she definitely has a much faster race in her.

Its within her ability, if her RT comes down and she gets a good tailwind and a dry track.
I hope she gets a WR in her time, her peak performance years are coming up 26-30. She can also still become one of the most decorated Olympians ever. She has 2 Olympics left in her after this. Yes she can be a 5-time Olympian, no doubt in my mind.
Carl Lewis' 9 are still within her reach.
Jamaicans will destroy her.

She probably ran the fastest drug-free AR tonight.
Felix in on HGH, so obvious. Take your blinders off.

Do you look the same at 20 and 26 or perhaps you need a lesson in camera lenes.
Also notice in one she's smiling which makes it look wider, in the other it's made more narrow by how she's speaking. Hard to tell much by those, imo.
