The Jamaica national record holder for the 100 meters is world record holder Asafa Powell, with a time of 9.74 seconds. -------------------------------------------------- Usain Bolt with 9.58s on 16th August 2009
The current world record holder in the men's 100 meters sprint is Usain Bolt from Jamaica with a time of 9.58 seconds, set in 2009 at the World Championships in Berlin. Bolt is widely regarded as one of the greatest sprinters of all time.
The mile and a half run is extremely rarely, if ever contested by elite runners. However based on current world records for the mile and two mile, we can infer that the world record if it were commonly contested would probably be about 5:50.
The male world record for the 200m sprint is 19.19 seconds, set by Usain Bolt of Jamaica in 2009.
some black guy. it would be mexican, but they can't afford to get to track competitions. i mean, they hav practice jumping over fences so they would be amazing
One African American male who holds a T&F world record is Michael Johnson in the 400m dash.
