Thestar.com: Olympic sprinter Perdita Felicien's comeback

[lillmisspretty]

im a hurdler, and perdita is definitely my role model. i would love to meet her in person

[katwian09]

i love her accent

[macassa420]

Perdita is a wonderful person. She might have came in last today but she is still number one to me.Time has come to pass the torch to Mrs. Lopes.Perdita will be just fine whatever she does next.. She might have went down but she will get back up and keep going.

She came to my school yesterday and signed a soccer ball for the school and spoke to us.

[Tr0llsNeverDie]

she didnt want to lose again so made a fake injury.

[shottut]

Yeah ... okay then..

[mattiieeeee]

she had a foot injury.

[Icecoldhard]

She must have rolled up laughed at your one inch, dont be so bitter, anyone would laugh, you may try surgery to help that though

[MohamedAhmedJul5]

I am from the US and Perdita Felicien is a great athlete. Man, it is a shame that she has to put her olympic dreams on hold.

[BPJW]

it doesn't matter if she will be 31 in 2012..look at Bridgette Foster and delloreen Ennis london two jamaican hurdlers who are in their thirties who are at the prime of their careers...and she has done adequate training since then..if she didn't how would she have won silver in osaka

[OnaraBoludo]

She is a Gold Medal Winner for the great person that she is.

[rereiw]

she sure has a lot of heart

[Notorious725]

She's officially not going to China.

[kinggerdave]

i don't feel bad for her in Athens, I feel bad for the other woman that she took out when she bailed

[louisgdehaut]

me too man, I can't believe her dream was shattered by another runner that can't run in a straight line with hurdles on the way. This is a nightmare. I know it's only a race, but how can you fall when you never usually fall? Pressure is too much for her = not a champion but a choker. sucks, but that's the truth. What a shame for the country. Perdita, sounds like Perdre in french, wich means lose.

[neevana]

she's pure class, no doubt about it!

[carmie1818]

There is no such thing as an Olympian who is a "loser".

[uncomplientspud]

btw, i broke 2 min on that track during my indoor season! felt great to do

[uncomplientspud]

Best luck Perdita! Canada is behind you all the way!!

[jaaxxor]

ya maybe but dont make fun you probally couldnt do any better
