When we do our Masters competitions I'm often asked how we compare with the guys who were Olympians in our youth. A few keep going (Willie Banks the triple jumper still competes), Ed Moses tried to make a comeback and then disapeared, but what about the huge stars like Carl Lewis?
Well here's the answer:
The race doesn't start for about 5 minutes, so scroll through the fluff.
Bottom line - Dennis Mitchell wins in 11.6, Carl Lewis is at least half a second behind. In the Master's World rankings that wouldn't make a dent. (In fact my best 100m last season was 12.6)
