Person who doesn’t have a clear understanding will choose to to chat factless information…..but, don’t worry if they have a particular bias they will defend vehemently….. wonder how their progeny will fare
I like your determination, never give up because u believed in yourself.. I like it. It’s a good.
Just want to see the 100th sub-10 💪🏽 🙏🏼
Even though it’s very early season and they have not competed for a long time 10.51 for an athlete coming back means you are way past your best and it’s downhill from here .I would expect anything from the 10.3s to low 10.4s for any serious future competition. Softer Powell the writing is on the wall
Donovan Mclean gatlin is older than Powell and am sure e is running better times so Powell can still go faster than 30s 20s am sure u rember Kim Collins?
He use to do it before, u y’all like to tear down each other. Give him a break and think positive. KMT
Kerry Kerr they cannot……. they are also clearly deflecting and cowardly and prefer to live vicariously
He won his first race in 10.5
