1. I bet everyone came here for one reason!!!!
   
   
   
   
   
   SHE GOT OUTPACED BY KENDRA HARRISONNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!! (the anniversary games)
2. Roided to the gills..
3. #2 and #3 in Donkova's record race from 1988 must be faster than #2 and #3 in the 2016 record race.
4. 12.20 and a new WR today. Still not competing in in Rio 2016.What a race!
5. and broke it today >> 12.20"
6. Harrison just beaten Donkova's record tonight with 12.20s, that's another drug fuelled record gone but still far too many remain (cough notably women's athletics)
7. Keni Harrison ran 12.24s to close the gap......
8. my real interest is on hurdles
   i love hurdles
   and i like to be a hurdle player
9. Hey, you all shut up!! Look at her technique, she is brilliant, only Sally Pearson is running with almost such great technique!! 😉
10. Drugs work.
11. This is not the 12,21 WR-race, in which the 2nd place athlete was 2,5s down to Donkowa (at least if the IAAF World Record book is correct).
    
    But I also can't find which race this should be.
12. It's actually Sally Pearson bro, Aussie Proud
13. On today's mondo tracks...... this incredible technique would be running a 12.00 all the time.  Not hating on today's athletes, but Yordanka was incredible.   Remember, she also had a teammate who was running 12.2  and 12.3.    On today's tracks Donkova would have already erased a step from the start to the first hurdle, plus have the advantage of the lively tracks that Mondo builds today.
14. Pos. Time Athlete Country Venue Date Ref 1 12.21 (+0.7) Yordanka Donkova Bulgaria Stara Zagora 20 August 1988
15. sally this year?? lol she won't even touch a 12.3 let alone break the WR
16. Sally Pearson or Brianna Rollins will break it
17. Finally...I've been looking for a clip of the 100mH WR for years. (Windspeed was +0.7m/s) Incidentally, Donkova ran 2 more races at Stara Zagora the following week: 12.24 (+0.9m/s); 12.27 (-1.2m/s) I'd love to see this record beaten soon, ideally at the Olympics or World Championships.
18. This is one of the very few 1980's womens world records that could be broken in a few years...
19. Yes, wind didn't exceed the limit of 2.0 m/s at this competition.
20. 12.21 without wind assistance?
