unfortunately, the careers of athletes are temporary, one day the athlete is beat by another, Cathy freeman was amazing, after Ana Guevara beats cathy freeman, all in this world is temporary.
That had to be one of the most exciting moments during those olympic games......hurray for the Aboriginals, hurray for Ms Freeman. Coming from an Aboriginal of Canada.
Cos i'm free...i love the olympics for these kind of historic moments...she seemed such a slight figure under the floodlights that night, and a million voices coming out of the shadows appeared to carry her round, quite wonderful!?
In the 400m lane six is a curse. The best lanes are either 3 or 4. That way, you can see the field ahead of you and be conscious of the two or three guys to your left (inside).
Lane six is preferred by 200m runners. I think it is all psychological after all.
@SonNative It has to do with the curve. In the 200m, the least amount of curve you have, the faster you can go. In the 400 however, you want an even amount all around the track, hence lanes 3 and 4 being the best lanes.
CATHY, you are such an inspiration for every1 especially athletes, i am 11 and am hoping to win gold just like you for australia in the 400m. You show great determination and thats why you wre austrlias best female runner, i hope i can step up to the challenge of being australias best female runner by showing determination lik eyou.

If Marita Koch is still alive she probably had a pain in her bollocks after she watched this. I am Welsh and love to see Australians lose because you are so good at sport, but I yelled my head off for Cathy Freeman and cried like a baby when she won - inspirational and uplifting!

Great race....well done to Cathy. I believe she might have run a lot faster in the traditional track uniform.

I was there watching, what a moment, the sound of the spectators willing her on. And the look of pure relief from Cathy when she had finished.

why is it so good

Because she carried the entire nation's expectations. Australia is not a great running country and she is one of if not our best runner ever.
