  • Wow, look at the back kick on that stride, that dude will spike the (heck) out of you!

  • Juantorena had the all time greatest running style. It really looks magnificent.

  • What an exciting race! You can't really say that Juantorena controlled the entire race, as Boit really charged hard at the end. I still have vivid memories of his exploits in 1976 and used to have that Track and Field News poster of him up in my house (along with the one of John Walker). The quality of this copy is superb for its time, too. Too many of these old videos are terrible quality.

  • i got 4.18 im slow xd

  • i dont understand the world cup, if europe were to win for instance who keeps the trophy?

  • @mrcatohead

    Presumably the European Athletics Association.

  • Well, this is the year that the 800m will really take off and 1min 44 plus will definitely not be considered a good time.

  • @musik102 How right you were!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111

  • people make a big fuss about technology, but the 800m mens times now arent any faster than then. Like within 1 second give or take

  • Wulbeck's starting position is illegal now & I think was then! An athlete can start with 2 hands on the ground or 0 but not 1.

  • @trickygoose what if your an amputee

  • @mrcatohead

    Good point - I think an athlete with only one hand would be an exception as long as they were doing a crouch start.

    In short:

    standing start - no hands on ground

    crouch start - all hands on ground.

  • Juantorena, an awesome athlete.
