I wonder who ran the relays.

>I wonder who ran the relays.

For USA, it was Grimes to Williams to Patton to someone whose name escapes me right now.

For GBR it was Malcolm to Chambers to Campbell to MLF.

Malcolm's false start -- and subsequently having to hold back -- (coupled with terrible GBR changeovers) cost us the race.


On the women's side, it was Williams, Moore, (yet another name I forgot), to Jenkins who ran a great anchor leg to run down the Russian team, after Kislova took them into the lead on the 3rd leg.

Re: USA - GB - Russia, Montgomery loses again

it seems it has become increasingly difficult for tim to win any races, he seems very unprepared to me. marion gave birth so now he wont get any sleep at home either. it does not look good for the record holder for this year.
white and devers lost too with horrible performances. again i dont understand why did they go to europe so quickly after running six races in four days last weekend. it makes no sense to me, they will have nothing left by mid august.

Is Upshaw's 6.99 with legal wind legal? That's a gigantic PR if so.
