Just in case yall didnt hear. He dropped a 19.72 with a +2.5 wind. I think that that was the wind I may be wrong but it was wind aided. I was there, I wish I had a cam to record.
He came off the curve strong and powered down the last 100. Never seen someone put down that much power down on the last 100 of a 200. It was amazing. After the race gay was damn near sleep for an 45 mins after. couldnt even cool down.
19.79. Pretty good considering its his first 200m in a while.

Interesting. I’m guessing he’s in pretty heavy training right now based on time of year.
