My heart seemed to jump out from my throat during the last 50 mt. Great joy!! Think that those were the days that athletes could use blood regeneration using a filtering machines after trainings and races, together with strange drugs. I read about in 1984 that italian athletes, mainly spee draces ones, used to use filtering, being not considered as doping. And think that Mennea's weight training was awesome: once USA athletes asked him if his written daily training program was the weekly one!
great race, unbelievable speed. just want to say that In the 70's most runners were probably taking 'something', this fact does not influence mennea's victory. p.s. he had the fastest final 100 meters ever seen on track.
peccato che poi sia andato in forza italia

Agreed jeb. I read it and it certainly reads that. Something wrong somewhere.
