Nice video!

[@willstuart4504]

Cool video 👏👏 But I'm shocked Bolts 19.19 200m didn't score off the charts?? Still awesome tho... * I get it now, because he blew everyone away and 2nd and 3rd were WAY behind. 👍

These are not the fastest races. These may be the most competitive. For the fastest 100metre race you have to add the time of the eight runners. The lowest total would be the fastest race. An athlete breaking a record does not make that the fastest race. It makes that person the fastest. The race involves all the starters. The headline is misleading.
