1. Fantastic race! I'd only seen the US coverage of this before, which is sooo biased toward, yes, you guessed it, the US team! Olga was a first rate 400m and there was no way she was gonna be caught! Nazarova always seemed to run better in relays than in the individual event; what an incredible leg she ran! Thanks for posting this video!
2. Think that as of 12/31/1987 he had 100 10.96 and 200 21.96-which he did to begin in 1988-with 10.49 in 100 finishing with 21.34 in 200 and then upon learning that there would be surprise controls from 1989 I delete
3. pensar que al 31/12/1987 tenia en 100 10,96 y en 200 21.96-que hizo para comenzar en 1988 - con 10,49 en 100 terminar con 21.34 en 200 y luego al enterarse que que habria controles sorpresivos a partir de 1989 -se borrro
4. god damn. how the fuck did olga nazarova do that, she destroyed diane dixon on that second leg of 4x400m, the soviets were phenoms of 400m relays
