which I find more indicative of Jamaica's performance at this meet. Yes, it does have us as third place but my goodness, fi a country like Jamaica this is a tremendous achievement.

Very nice! for us track crazed people that is really wikid, but the general public don't care bout that, this is all about the glory of the gold, unfortunately VCB wasn't ready for this championship.With that gold and a little more effort and planning on the 4*400 if we could win that we could have had 9 golds. That would have taken us to total glory at this championship event, bragging rights for a millennia. Now the US will still walk away with the honours a little wounded with their 8 or 9 gold compared to our 7 or 8 they also have more silvers so if it is tied at 8 they still prevail.
