Why are Jamaican runners dominating the olympics?

Question

it seems a little sketchy to me

Answer 1

Because they are fast!!! That one dude.. shoot he looks like he is just jogging have the time to get over the finish line.. he doesnt even break a sweet. He makes it look so easy... Hopefully the U.S can do something to win..

Answer 2

i think sprinting is like a national sport next to soccer

Answer 3

Because they are Jamaican and they are the sh*t. :)

Answer 4

why not???!!!

Answer 5

b/c they are the best. just like african people who run in a marathon here in theu.s. they always win those marathons

Answer 6

does that mean that it seems sketchy to you that micheal phelps won 8 medals??

Yeesh, you must be one arrogant and ignorant fool!!

Answer 7

ummmm...well gee I dunnoooo.. maybe because they run faster than all of their competitors?

Answer 8

Active training.

Answer 9

I think you mean the USA dominates Softball because it is Cuba that dominates baseball. The way Bolt was jogging and sort of showboating over the finish line makes me think a little. But the Jamacians overall are just dominate runners. Every country has an event they are dominate in. And Track just happens to be the dominate sport for Jamacia.

Answer 10

It only looks that way because of how awesome Usain Bolt is, but Jamaica has only won 4 medals, and will probably get 1 or 2 more.

Congratulations to the Jamaicans for winning the 100m sprint for the first time and breaking the world record.

Answer 11

Same reason the US dominates baseball and Romania used to dominate gymnastics.  They are the best.  And amazing to watch.

That and also because they gave up bobsledding!
