damn sexy

[akoodi66]

Quite a legend!!!!

[liljazy2423]

Am a big fan of Merlene i love her but i want to see her as a COACH not on the track at big events. She need to have the world respect, her days is finish on the track she should retire and age gracefully. Most of the other athletes retire from the track is still in jamaica working with the children. Grace Jackson doing very well for her self out there in jamaica.

I grow up watching Merlene Ottey perform, she is always one of my favorite athlete..happy to see she still looks incredibly well. gorgeous as ever.... thanks for all the great memories....the board of athletic in Jamaica should try to encourage her to come to Jamaica and be some form of mentor or adviser to the young and present athletes competing now...

[kiwimusic422]

I love you style can you train me....

[Gravyman]

She was the only one carrying Jamaica's track aspirations durinh the 90's. She's a legend, but lost way too many races in the finals.

[pearpeas]

This was a tragic to go out in non-Jamaican colours.

Jamaica should really honour her. She truly put them on the map in so many ways. I would love to see her go back to coach there....

[liljazy2423]

@pearpeas TRUE!! jamaica needs her. WHAT is she doing, or trying to PROVE. There is so many things she could do in JAMAICA. the young generation need her. Pack your bags OTTEY and go home.

[jesuisdavid1]

@liljazy2423 she's doing what's she is supposed to be doing...Jamaican's are ungrateful...she was willing to give and gave Jamaica a lot over many years....now she's giving to a country and to the world that accepts her more...if you understood women, you would understand her need to feel accepted all the time...

[liljazy2423]

@jesuisdavid1 Can you please tell me what country and world accepts merlene. She's 51 now. disgraceful. What will she acheive now, she will not win a medal anymore, if jamaica was so ungrateful she should have left long time ago. I understand she left jamaica to be with her boyfriend. Don't think she left because jamaica did not accepts her. Even Ottey said herself she wanted to carry on running but she know she coulden't in jamaica. She's got a passion for running. She forget to have kids.

[liljazy2423]

@pearpeas Very true! 

[sequiaonda78]

Whata humble Queen. 

[liquor228]

Merlene is the greatest ever!!!

[auchindown]

queen merlene

[elchavon08]

I love Ottey!!

[sequiaonda78]

Very nice to see the extremely experienced Ottey running next to a young talent like Allyson Felix from 0:25 to 0:36, still epic, to see those to big ones running together...

[Jelloxox]

50!?!?!?!?1 holy shit! GOOD BLACK DONT CRACK! lOL BUT SERIOUSLY.SHE LOOKS AMAZING.And shes won more awards than almost everyone.Great accomplishments.

[peterkin1010]

@Jelloxox TOTALLY AGREE-Jamaican ladies are the best on earth and Merlene is a glowing example!

[josepablobolanos]

Amazing woman... Athletic and sexy as hell at age 50 and, yet, did you see her at 36??? Grrrrr!!! I intend to stay fit until the day I die, as well! Good inspiration, Marlene.

[warriorprince1010]

@josepablobolanos I agree, what a beauitful women.

[guzlla]

She grew up next door to where my dad grew up in Jamaica!

[nochanane]

@guzlla

Where in Cold Spring is your dad from?

(If that is not too much of a personal question)

I'm from Cold Spring, I'm trying to do a paper called On the Map reasons why places are recognised.

[OutlawzAK]

SHE IS A WOMAN.................. I wish, if I could have chance to see her in person. She could easily be my mother, but at sometime she like my youngest sister.

[sportnerd112]

phenomenal indeed... a real legend !

Just unfortunate those fast times of 10.74 & 21.64 didn't come thru @ the Olympic games would have surley won in 1992 or 1996... none-the-less Fabulous career Merlene

[Ajazz16]
