    Re: Block work shorter than 10m

    Our points are that there's no need to be dependent on someone starting you or a timer function that's nothing like a race.

    Bring you own "starter gun" and you'll be better off. I think the more...

    Re: dix 9.86 at 2012 Mt. Sac

    Also notice that the wind was +2.4, so the result was not quite as good as it appears, but essentially on a par with Yohan Blake's time earlier.
