Brodel Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Jamaican Asafa Powell breaks the men's 100m world record in Athens - clocking a new time of 9.77 seconds. The old record was 9.78. haha such a small difference but it must be awesome to be the fastest man on earth.

Doli Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 About time he did it. He needs to stop looking around at other runners near the end of races like he did in a few, that was messing him up time wise, he has the speed.
