400m..45.28

Answer 1

All professional athletes are on performace enhancers. ignore the people above, they dont know T&F

Answer 2

Its called talent and hard wok

Answer 3

Well that's 1 years difference. YOu can make a big difference in one year by training and developing your self. Also don;t forget hes 21 years old, so still experiencing a small growing curve.

You seem to be making a statement that you can't get any quicker after a certain age

Answer 4

not canadian or american? wins everything and is just as cocky as canadians or americans? must be on roids. how dare be be sure of himself and not be afraid to show it ? how dare he? he's good ,eveyone get over it. you can't have everything. time will tell if he's on roids, until then deal with it. bitter bitter people.

Answer 5

Only drugs that kids using is fine Jamaican herb

Answer 6

definately he is probobly on something. He could of ran a 9.4 or 9.5 which would be unheard of

Answer 7

It seems like a lot of people are saying that.  He has had an amazing amount of improvement, more than a year of training would get almost anyone especially at that level.  But I also think that he is a very unique athlete and I for one am not going to assume that he has been on anything.  I think what he has done is amazing, and I would have liked to see what he could have done if he didn't let up on the last 20m.  

Answer 8

only suspicious when its not an american or canadian being the fastest athlete in the world right ????

He does not 'roid' until he's proven guilty (like Johnson, Jones etc.)

out of interest - how many people have asked if Phelps is on drugs ? Are you American / canadian ? can you at least see why the rest of the world (including china) are so happy about your sprinters getting slapped down in front of the world...;)

Answer 9

Nah, I doubt it.  The guy just turned 22.  If he's 32 and ran these numbers, then it's suspicious.  Bolt is at his peak.  I think he will even get better in the next 2 years.  Time will tell if he's on roid or not.  But I really don't think so :)

Answer 10

It's called training. His times got better over A YEAR. If he was on drugs, it woulda been over a short period of time.
