Wow. Congratulations. Looking through this list, Ive remembered the likes of Christine Aaron. She was an amazing athlete. I'm guessing Marion Jones time was when she wasnt on drugs..... |

adaobi123: Wow. Congratulations.Marion Jones was so similar to Usain Bolt during her reign. She was a force. |

Okagbare should keep traning. I see her shaking the world at Rio. She hasn't gotten to her peak yet. She's a tall athlete and doesn't run as fast as Fraser Pryce. She merely strolls. Imagine what will happen when she starts running with all her innermost power. Rio is in 2016. I can't wait. |
