And where is Burns? I been salivating at the porspaect of having a fit and in form Thompson, Burns and Brown to form the base of the 400 relay in Beijing, but I guess that does not look real good.

  Darrel ran the third leg on the relay.

  Impressive anchor leg from Powell

World 100m record holder Asafa Powell was impressive on his anchor leg for MVP Track Club at Saturday's University of Technology (UTech) 50th Anniversary Track Classic at the National Stadium in Kingston, Jamaica (22 March).

Powell, who received the baton with a comfortable lead from Trinidad & Tobago's 2003 World Championships 100m silver medallist Darrell Brown, strolled to an easy team victory in 39.22 seconds.

Nester Carter and Jamaica's 2005 World Championships 100m silver medallist Michael Frater completed the quartet, which beat UTech Track Club (39.93) and UTech (40.01) to better the four times listed so far this season.

G. C. Foster College (44.12) won the women's 4x100m ahead of Sprint Tech (46.45).

Sprinter Sherone Simpson improved on her 400m time with an impressive 51.25 seconds to beat two-time World Junior Championships 400m silver medallist Sonita Sutherland (51.32) and Melaine Walker (51.61).

In the men's 200m, Carter, a member of Jamaica's silver medal sprint relay team in Osaka, raced to victory in a personal best 20.38 seconds to beat Frater (20.81) and Ghana's Seth Amoo (20.93).

Andrew Hinds of Barbados improved to 10.20 to win the men's 100m while Shericka Williams won the women´s 100 m in 11.49.

Oniel Wright of Liberia ran 51.38 to win the men's 400m hurdles ahead of Cuban Yasel Abril (51.91).

Great Britain's Germaine Mason, a member of MVP Track Club, won the men's High Jump with a leap of 2.15m while Jovanee Jarrett leapt 6.61m to win the women's Long Jump.

World Championships medallist Brigitte Foster-Hylton made a solid return to the hurdles with an easy win in 13.16 seconds.

Anthony Foster for the IAAF

When there is a 200 he somehow does not show up - and I'm sorry 39 anything for this group is pitiful.

[Ngozi]

I getting the impression that he not up for it ..... if he not willing to do the work he won't do anything

[Storeboy]

Ngozi, you absolutely right.  Somebody needs to tell Darrell that breaking records at 17 don't mean nothing if you don't do the hard work and exibit the discipline throughout your career.  Ato, can you get throgh these your sprinter's skull?

[A.B.]

I have tried to be supportive yet honest about everything that has gone down with the TWO B's and to be honest it is hte number one question I get now when I am travelling....WHAT HAPPENED TO BURNS AND BROWN.

I will support all my countrymen with my heart but my head knows damn well where to look for the next world beater from TNT.

where is beldman going to run

[Aviator]

He is also running at the Florida relays. Xavier Carter and Steve Mullings are also entrants in the 100m, so he will have good competition.
You can find the link to both male and female entry lists here..............

To be honest with you I cannot remember the name of the man's coach right now. Hopefully Ato or someone else in the know pass through.

If memory serves me right Marc didn't have his first individual race until the Doha meet, so I don't know if he's doing the same this year. I just hope he ain't running that 10.2x nonsense like he was running last year.

[A.B.]

why is Darrel NOT running anything

[Trini1]

I see that Michelle-Lee Ahye is also an entry for both the 100 and 200m that comes as a big surprise didn't she just injure herself in the Carifta games. Nevertheless go Michelle do us proud!!!!!!! It would be nice to see all our girls running solid times and even better if the 15yr old could beat the two 'veterans'. Seeing that Ms Ashby is running would it be safe to assume that her debts have been cleared? I hope we can see the Fana Ashby of 2004/5 who ran that just slightly wind aided(+2.2m/s) time of 11.03s but she has been out of competition long so its just a hope. A big let down with Fana is that she seems to run well at home but when elsewhere she performs poorly or she will run well in prelims and tie up in finals e.g. 2004 NCAA outdoor champs, 11.20PB in prelims and eight place finish in finals, another is after running so well in Trinidad (11.03w, 11.12) she just did crap in the olympics (11.43(1st round), 11.54(2nd round)). Just 1 more thing correct me if i'm wrong but Fana and Bianca Knight have similar builds and runnin techniques but 1 is a lot faster i think Fana should take some tips.

Yea i would say that they have similar a build, but B.K. is a bit 'thicker'. As far as the running styles goes, I can't even comment because is so long since i have seen Fana run. I just hope they ain't over running poor Michelle-Lee.
