@kezza454 I agree I do 400m and after a 2 year injury im currently sitting at 54 seconds. Hoping to get 50 before the end of my season. But its a very tough race and you have to be tactical. You cant sprint off right at the start!
ASD ur oviousy unsocial and oviously american i speek perfect english do u? oh yes u do cos ur englands bitches u americans yes say my language say u fukin dooshes u just add an assent ... how dus it feel to be the most hated country in the world???
wow u are fucking retarded, you bitch about us mispronouncing a stupid fucking name and then your try to insult us in ours and you can't spell for shit- go find a hole in what ever country your from and die
Rooney's solid, but will never be great over 400m. He has the potential to be a very good 800m runner, however.
I was disappointed with his gamesmanship in the 400m final at Beijing, interrupting the focus of other, better runners by breaking early - why break early in 400m?
I was also surprised at his lack of respect towards other runners at the end of his 4x400m heat, crossing the finish line while waving his batten to those behind him and laughing.
Just 6 weeks ago you wouldn't have given Rooney a chance to get into the final...
Now - then he goes and does a 44.83...and then this...44.72...he can defo go faster...the Olympics can make you do that...and if he can make it through the rounds, he has a shot at the British and European records...
god, that commentary was AWFUL! the viewer would have more idea if they just shut up! people actually PAY to watch/hear this?! give me the BBC anyday.
i think rooney is fantastic. his times haven't been great, but he's proved he can rival competition if he's actually given some! i think it's a near certainty that he'll reach the final but don't count on a medal, i think he'll be around 6th or 7th. but expect fireworks in the relay, this boy can dig deep when it counts! watch the 08 euro cup!!
Jeez American commentary must be the worst ever -- theres something about Carol Lewis that I find... annoying.
BTW NBC Universal if you bothered to check the video content of my 400m World Championship video you would know none of the content came from you or here, but you obviously didnt as you filed a copyright claim. Are you suddenly part of the BBC now?
Oh yeah great run by Rooney, a possible outsider for the final but unless he drops to 44.5 or under would be difficult to medal.
It's weird, that you can't comprehend the difference between a Junior athlete gradually progressing as a senior and gradually knocking 10ths off his PB.. (he;s hardly destroying world records now, is he) and a Jamaican who runs 9.72 to destroy the world record, over take Historical greats such as Lewis, Burell and ...ahem, Ben Johnson..in only his 4th or 5th time running the 100m!
I personally choose to believe Bolt is clean, and just a freak of nature however. Ignorance is bliss :P
You need see what we do in Jamaica and what is done in the states, I know how the british train, pathetic, not many people are interested in the sport, only at the olympics, high school students in jamaica train like some of your top athletes here, two times a day five times a week, while here i witness some of your youngters training just three times a week for a couple hours, you have UKA who actually give money to your athletes, in Jamaica it is sponsorship money from whoever is the sponsor,
This is a programme I did in school in Jamaica, 600m, 500m, 300m, 200m, 100m then start from 100m back up again,
another one, ran about a mile to a steep slope maybe about 150m, sprinted the slope 10 times and ran back to school, another thing, after a week of intense training, go to the beach and run a mile or two on the sands do plyometrics for about an hour, i did this once a day, some schools do it two times a day, we would train for at least three hours a day monday to saturday, in school
Right he is freak he ran 19.93 at 15 years old, he has been running fast in jamaica for a long time even before anyone else in the world knew of him, we have others coming up, Yohan blake, dexter lee, ramone mackenzie, and quite a few more females tell you what, look on my list of favourites or my playlists under athletics and you will see references to our boys and girls championships in jamaica, compare that to the british youngsters and you you will see why these things do not surprise us

Well in my last comment I said unless he drops to 44.5 or under would be difficult to medal, 44.60 in the semis its now a possibility.
One last thing: Christine Ohuruogu the 400m Commonwealth, World and now the OLYMPIC CHAMPION!!!
1981aLaN 3 years ago
Maybe not this year, but that British record of 44.3 is going to be Rooney's SOON! Can't wait till he gets a little bit more pace in his legs.
Also, when he switches to the 800m....oh YEAH!
