Jamaica is running things...LITERALLY!!!

Okay, I don't usually get all bragadocious, but I can't help it with the way the Jamaican runners have been killing it. I always route for Jamaica in the Olympics and this year was no exception and boy have I ever been proud of my island and it's atheletes.

I'm sure you already know that Usain Bolt has been and continued to do the damn thing and his latest run was absolutely amazing.

Love to the following (that I can immediately name in my elation):
Shelly-Ann Fraser
Kerron Stewart
Melanie Walker
Sherone Simpson
Veronica Campbell-Brown
Vonnette Dixon
Nickeisha Anderson
Aasafa Powell
Marvin Williams

Love!

I feel bad cause I have yet to see any track & field competitions. I've been trying to, but I keep missing out. A blogger by the name of Jackie Edwards is a member of the jamaican track & field team, as well.

Don - man, you're missing out on some good running for real. I've had my DVR set damn near everyday so i don't miss a thing. That's big about Jackie Edwards; her name sounds familiar.

Love!

Yep...looks like its y'alls turn to build the track and field dynasty. When I was in college it was Barbados that was WRECKING shop well in the college world. *lol*

That green, yellow, and black has been quite impressive!!

My bad on calling the gold yellow, so now it does really make sense fro Usain to have the golden shoes...more so than Michael Johnson.

Do you know Johnson didn't think Bolt could break his record? How? This is a man that cruised to a 100m WR. Anyway things keep getting better and better for the Jamaican track and field team each day!!
