- On this episode of Donovan Bailey Running Things, Donovan and Jason Portuondo recap the track events at the 2024 Paris Summer Olympic Games. Athletes discussed include Noah Lyles, Kishane Thompson, Fred Kerley, Letsile Tebogo, Oblique Seville, Lamont Marcell Jacobs, Julien Alfred, Sha'Carri Richardson, Kenny Bednarek, Gabby Thomas, Andre De Grasse and the 4x100m Canadian relay team. Also, bonus Breaking talk!
Did you guys hear about the hero's welcome Tebogo his team received in Botswana? A national public holiday to celebrate them, a red-carpet reception at a stadium packed full of fans, a cultural dance and a thank you speech from the President of Botswana!
My guy, DeGrasse, is the beast for Canada. I'm so happy he went out with a gold medal.
Yes, Florida is so proud of DeGrasse, a fellow Floridian.
FINALLLLLLLLY !!!!! I’ve been needing this podcast during the Olympics 😢 Glad you guys are back ❤😊
Missed Paulino's 48.17 #4 all-time & 1st all sub 50s W400m race; Missed Marco Arop missing out on 800m Gold by 0.01s; Missed USA M&W's 4x4 Teams missing the WRs by just over 0.1s!
S/O Thiam, Kipyegon & Crouser for being the only 3 T&F Athletes to 3-Peat ('16, '21 & '24). Mondo, Crouser, Kipyegon & El Bakkali are the only 4 athletes to win individual Gold in the last 4 Global Champs so on track to make it 5 in a row @'25 Tokyo WC. Katie Moon would've been #5 but narrowly missed out following her Silver Medal in the PV which was won by Nina Kennedy. S/O both Sifan Hassan for being such a talented & entertaining maniac with her 2nd successive OLY medalling in 3 Distance Events & JCQ's consistency for being the only female sprint hurdler to medal in each of the last 4 Global Champs! Zurich DL has confirmed Mondo will race Karsten over 100m on Wed Sept. 4 the day before the main meet which will have Hocker, Kerr, Nuguse & Jakob race the 1500m on Thurs Sept. 5 🔥🔥🔥
Great Track Coverage!
In my opinion whatever caused the delay in starting the 100m men's disadvantaged Tebogo and Thompson. Tebogo also lost 21 days after his mum died. After seeing him practice here in Botswana we thought he would get silver to Thompson but my hat's off to Lyles. It will be interesting to see Tebogo & Thompson in the Diamond League. Really wish you guys had been there to see the reception live here in Gaborone.
New to this channel after the Olympics. Great content - looking forward to more. My one suggestion would be to improve the intro - perhaps with a montage of Donovan Bailey from his Olympic days.
Amazing podcast!!
4:49 - it was the difference between running and racing. All season Kishane has been running... trying stuff out... checking out his phases. Noah has been racing! He already knows his phases and the perfectly timed lean at the end is pure experience. He's had to use it previously and it's second nature now.
The other guy is a Lyles fan lol Don is right the covid thing bit took a bit away from the Tebogo win
Jamaica has had its high and low moments in athletics championships. As a resilient people we will RISE again. On the other hand, it's good to see other Caribbean athletes doing very well at the PARIS OLYMPICS such as JULIAN ALFRED from St. Lucia and LaFond (Dominica).
What about African athletes doing well
@urbanstocks4628 Jamaicans don’t care about African athletes.
Guys the best 3rd leg is that yohane blake when jamaica broke the WR that curve was too much
Yesssss, wanted to mention that and lost my train of thought, lol. You are right!!!
Fun fact
Usain Bolt actually has the fastest Third leg ever when he ran the curve in 8.9 seconds in Beijing 2008.
@@panashenhavira i can’t find record of that time because it was DSQ in 2017 please share the source
You lot need time stamps on the video that highlights the topic you’ll be talking about. Good show. From the uk 🇬🇧!!!
Great podcast. FYI it’s Tebo-ho. The G is an H in Botswana
Yes you're right...like Oh-man yala
NO a G is pronouced G in Botswana but H in Lesotho. TeeeBooGGGo
Congratulation to Canada for winning the 4 x 100 m final that was amazing. Amazing amazing for Canada that make me happy there was American track and field star the interview ask him what about Canada in the track relay? And they, American track and field star said who who who listen to me don’t you underestimate the power of Canada action speak louder than words you see what happen win the 4 x 100 m final and the American team was the qualified. Don’t you mess with Canada? 🇨🇦 oh Canada, you get the last laugh 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Donovan I was wondering when someone was going to say that about Shakari. She freezes when surrounded by great athletes.
I don’t that she won the world championships from behind with a stacked field
@@michellerowe-smith5803 she was on the outside lane with no pressure. Athletes abandon their race strategies when under pressure unless they are totally confident in their training and speed. We will see next year again.
Please put time stamps on your videos. Thanks
30:33 - Part of the bonus the US Relay had in the 80's and 90's was that ¾ of their relay were Santa Monica Track Club members and they specialized in relay running. The US almost never had to think about "practice" because their guys practiced together all year and year after year!!
Also Grant Holloway.... you'll have to work hard to find an instance where he ran a relay and didn't destroy his leg
Didn’t Seville (re)-injury himself in the final?
love the show great keep it up great coment
Right about Tebogo MVP. He's the next MIchael Johnson. He'll run the 400m WR in the next years.
Yes it should have been two gold medal
Also let add Noah went to a post olympic party on Sunday and Monday posted his test that he was now covid negative, he was video taped dancing
True, but he tested positive from Tuesday 6th and tested negative on Saturday 10th. That’s believable for a super fit athlete.
I’m no athlete, but when I had Covid in 2022 I only tested positive for 3 days on lateral flow tests and the only symptom I had was a slight runny nose for 2 days. Some people have good immune systems.
@@ExileRadio but if he only had a runny nose for 2 days it's not the best excuse
@@crabb9966 Of course it is. Just because your only noticeable symptom whilst not pushing your body hard is a runny nose doesn’t mean it’s not going to affect you if you run 200m as fast as you can.
I’m sure my own 200m sprint would have been affected when I just appeared to have a runny nose with Covid if I tried to run it as fast as I can.
Covid is an upper respiratory infection, so you aren’t gunna be at 100% performance when you have it, even if you have it mild.
That said, I’ll only give Lyles 50/50 at best he could have beaten Tebogo’s 19.46 on the day if he didn’t have Covid. He’s only run faster than that once.
@@crabb9966he had a fever and he was running in the Olympics. His immune system was weakened by the stress of the Olympics.
@@crabb9966if Noah tested for Covid on Tuesday, it means he already had COVID in his system when he won the 100m 2 days earlier. He also got Bronze in the 200m with Covid.
I think Shacari like the outside lanes. I don't think she can handle the pressure when her competition is next to her. From what I saw in the Olympics if Shacari had the middle lanes in the world champs she wasn't going to win.
She won Doha in 2023 in lane 6 right next to Shericka Jackson, setting a meet record. She also won gold at the trials in lane 5 or 6. She was in lane 5 at the Olympics in 4x100 when she levitated past the field for gold.😂 I think being denied entrance and not having a proper warmup before the final might've impacted her performance.
@Tadaia I am talking about the big stage world champs and Olympics she only ran and won one world champs and she was not beside Shericka who was in the middle lane beside Pryce Shacari was in lane 9
@@talkingitout1623 I’m not sure. I wouldn’t say she’s not capable of winning from the middle lanes,… but… I think Alfred being such a fast starter and Richardson being a poor starter definitely put pressure on her being in the lane next to her. She probably would have benefitted being in a lane away from Alfred’s flying start.
@@ExileRadio you are probably right ✅️
@tadaia I agree with you. I'm a long time Alfred fan and really happy for the win. But both SAFP & ShaCarri were impacted by the crap at the gate.
FUN FACTS! Mike Marsh is the USA 🇺🇸 men's relay coach.
Mike Marsh should be FIRED!
Here we go again owning Julien. As said by Julien "Lucia Pressure"
The women's 4x 100was not discussed
16:56 - Similar to letting the other athletes know you have Covid. Anson Henry talked about Noah's Covid on his podcast a day or two before the finals. Anson was in London... if he knew and shared, then Tebogo, Knighton, Bednarek etc etc... they knew.
Oblique was injured in the race so you are misreading his performance
I disagree with KT going 9.6s high/9.7s low had he stayed relaxed. At 60m KT split 6.40s in Paris. Nobody is going 9.6s while splitting 6.40s. I mean, we can do the math and say that Usain Bolt could have (6.40+3.27=9.67s) but only Bolt has ever gone sub 3.3s from 60...100m.
Regardless, in all of Bolt's sub 9.7s performances he always split 6.3s low, namely 6.31s in his 9.58s and 6.32s in his 9.63/9.69s.
Tyson Gay split 6.36s in his 9.69s.
Yohan Blake split 6.33s in his 9.69s.
So, 6.40s just no. KT could have maybe ran 6.40+3.37=9.77s if he had stayed relaxed throughout.
Y'all missed simbini came in 4th
They talked about him listen carefully
DON'T FORGET when Seville beat Lyes in Jamaica he also said that he was TIRED because of what he and his partner did the night before. Come on 😮who the HELL is INTERESTED in there affair the night before. NO CLASS at all. 😮
That was fake news.
Donovan, it is Simbine, not Sambine😂
You're also wrong, his name is Simbine
@@leratomonethi4265 Typo, now corrected
Has Donovan ever won an Olympic final in the rain without a decent warm-up?
He beat Michael Johnson in 150 metre
@talkingitout1623 That's not what he asked.
He’s an Olympic gold medalist.
@donovanbailey you need to coach brother
He's always trying to coach me...don't worry
Noah is selfish, every time he loses he has an excuse. So upset he took away Letsile shine. When Seville beat Noah in Jamaica he blamed it on the gun being fired too fast.
I don’t think he’s selfish. He didn’t choose to have the cameras on him when he lost. They’ve done the same thing with athletes like Usain Bolt when he pulled up in his last race.
@@waterrocketlab151yeah but Bolt did not make excuses to take away from Gatlin’s win though, and that’s the difference.
You guys should do this more you didn’t do justice lol you didn’t big up the Zambian dude on the 400m Samakonga..missed South Africa and Simbine winning silver.
Omanyala choked.
Only runs well in altitude
The way Noah disrespect Andre Degrase and Canada was ugly nuff love to Andre and Canada 🇨🇦 🇯🇲
Noah Lyles haters want to change the rules. It’s the torso that crosses the line first wins. Noah WON!
Him fi change him name to Noah lyes.
Why is that?
A who dat? Me, or Donovan...lol
Someone tell Carl Lewis no one is allowed to use the spice he was on anymore. USA aren't winning anymore
Donovan is a hater he giving all those Excuses for Kishane if he would have done this ? For Tebogo if he would have done this...
Well if I knew the lottery numbers I would be a millionaire! Wat a joke !😆😆
He is not great for the sport, unnecessary arrogance, don't like. He needs to talk about his own sport and stop hating on other people and talking bad about the other athletes. He took a lot away from Tebogo winning. Sore loser.
I don't want to dispute what you both say and love your podcast but you are both wrong look it up in the Olympic rules when awarding medals and a photo finish develops the rules say that the race and winner is determined in the 100th second not 1000th seconds. So in actual fact the 100th second puts Kishane and Noah as 9.79 and both should've received a gold medal look back in the 2008 olympics when degrasse and Trevon bromell both were awarded the bronze medal with the time of both was rounded off to the 100th second not 1000th.
Good point...
