Olympics is nothing without Usain Bolt. He will always be my favourite on the track. Secondly, a surprising win by Japan coming in 2nd. WOW.

[@thepsychologist8159]

Yer, but he didn't diversify. That's why it's Carl Lewis for me, one of only two athletes to achieve the 100m, 200m, 4x100m relay and the long jump at a single Olympic Games. And then Lewis being only one of two male athletes (track and field) to win a gold in four consecutive Olympics.

[@tquarrie828]

​@@thepsychologist8159 arguing 4 and 4 verses 3, 3, and 3 is tough. But the multiple olympic record performances for Bolt tips the scale for me personally.

[@thepsychologist8159]

@@tquarrie828 True, and that can't be disputed. However, the long jump can be very tough on the legs, especially the leading knees and hamstrings. In fact, even before the 80's Lewis was already experiencing issues with his knees (before he was a known sprinter). If Lewis had of dedicated himself to sprinting only, he would have been more dominant with a longer career. Considering Lewis ran his quickest in 1991 beating a quality field, was evidence of his sprint capabilities (and his performance running anchor at the 1992 Olympics in the 4x 100m was highly impressive). Not inconceivable that Lewis could have also done the triple-triple in three separate Olympics. Also, don't forget the USA boycotted the 1980 Olympics, so Lewis could have won his first gold here, giving him 10 gold medals in total.
