Imagine how fast he'd be if he was black.

All right, thanks for that Jimmy the Greek.

Some really enjoyable news, thanks for posting.

If this guy ever decides he’s a woman, he’s going to own every record out there.

I went to Houston Strake Jesuit HS. They've always had a strong track team and athletic program in general. They're a 5A private school that competes with the larger 6A public schools. Back in the day, they were a TCIL 3A school (smaller than regular 3A) that competed with public 5A schools, which at that time was the largest rating for schools in the state. What has helped their program is the high level of competition.

Abby Steiner starting to impress, . . . not often you see the back half of a 100m sprint dominated like this. . . . Looking forward to seeing her develop her break out of the blocks. . . From the moment she gets her head steadied she's hitting world-class sprinter speed.

That's amazing because she still hasn't reached her true potential. :-)

Update - indoor record in 200m

That was a heck of a back-end kick.

:-) Watch the comeback Abby Steiner lays on the field in the 3rd leg of this 4x400 relay. She's at least 25-30 meters back when she gets the baton. She gets it at the 1:46 mark if you want to jump forward.



She also just smoked the college 200m record. Her time ranked 20th all-time, so she's still in college and she's running times that could get her on an Olympic podium. Must be that extra muscle white girls have in their hamstrings...

White girl? Ubeja would be rolling in his grave. If he had one. But he doesn’t because he got eaten by a coyote and shit out all over the woods. RIP

Why is she running the third leg? I thought the fastest person was usually the anchor.

Maybe the strategy is to demoralize the other teams' anchor runners since they're going to be behind so far when they start.

Wondered that too. All I know is that if you told someone halfway through the first turn that she'd catch and pass all the competition by halfway through the next turn they'd think you were nuts. Toward the end of that back straight it was like she got shot out of a cannon. Her turnover rate is astounding, like some kind of super robotics.
