that he called her a 16 year old british girl, i would guess he would know british are not americans.
I ran at the same club until this year - no way she's 6' 2'' - well well under 6' I'd have said.
Was always amusing at the clubs annual awards evening- watched the U13 and then U15s go up and pick up their award for winning their "league" and Jodie was twice the size of any of them - even the boys!
There are conflicting accounts of this girl's height.

She is a legit athlete but unless your winning world championships, you should be running races where you lose occasionally.

Yes, but she was drugged and had to use Johnnie Cockran to get her off the charge.

http://www.letsrun.com/saveFairbs (or more likely person pretending to be him) - previous posts were quite clearly referring to Williams as being 6'2'' not the American so please shut the f*** up.

No need to tell us what we already know.
"She had a brush with drugs while in high school in 1992. She missed an out-of-competition drug test — an overnight package informing her of the test was misplaced in her coach's office — but was exonerated in a hearing at which her representative was famed lawyer Johnnie Cochran."

you are right... we shouldn't be impressed with a 16 year old girl who ran 22.7 and 11.4. She probably dominated the local boy athletes as well.
Ok to be impressed with the times she's run. I find the winning streak to be VERY UNIMPRESSIVE though, ESPECIALLY since it goes back to when she was 11.

I'm in Moncton and just saw her run and then up close in the mixed zone. She's 5'7" and slim ...
Says 5'7 here!
100m final should be interesting, pity we can't watch it
Well, let’s hope we’ve found someone who might finally break the fabulous Kathy Cook’s British records for the 100, 200 and 400, set way back in 81 and 84.
Kathy - the first clean runner home in the 400 at the 84 Games.

But it does include the Worth Youth Championships (U18) which she won aged 15.
It's not that unimpressive.

Some of the specific decent races she's won and the times she's run are what is impressive, NOT a winning streak that goes back to when she was 11.
Chalk up another one for her unimpressive streak.
Gonna be an interesting race in the final later on. All times seem to be a bit down in the semis despite the wind being favourable.
Hard to really tell how they were running though without seeing it. (anyone watch it?)
Very easy.
Well done Jodie.

Purvis was never in it (to win). Very surprised - but Williams looked very good. She has a great upside once she gains some more strength (muscle).
