Allyson Felix — a performance every bit as impressive as Bolt’s

Thank you. David Rudisha’s performance was THE highlight on the track, even ahead of Bolt in my humble opinion. Sprinters have to run fast. Middle and long distance do not. Yet Rudisha chose to challenge the other 7 men to a game of ‘catch me if you can’ and dragged them all to their own personal best times. The 8th place finisher was fast enough to have won Gold in the past 3 Olympics. Amazing.
