Tyson GayIn another wind-aided run of 100 meters, Tyson Gay ran (as I like to put it) not quite slow to finish in 9.75 seconds. That’s the 7th fastest 100 meters ever run under any conditions, although it is not eligible for the record books given the assist from Mother Nature.

He only ran the first round of the preliminaries and then called it good for the week, as he prepares for a showdown with Usain Bolt at the World Championships.

That’s gonna be a good race, despite being over by the time you could blink.

    I blink at aproximatly 1/15 s , so even if he ran insantly @ human max speed around37km/h (23mph)he would only get about 66cm (26inches)..

    So not quite finished by the time of a blink,,
