We are. What a race!!!! I watched it last night and it was amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing. It seemed so effortless to, like he floated through it. The best was how he left everyone else in his dust - they didn't stand a chance!

Have you seen Wayde's great-grandmother trainer tanie Ansi?? Here's a pic of them taken by the Team SA photographer after his win:

So interesting how you need to do a double take 'cos you'd think his trainer would be very different and yet it's simply brainwashing that makes you feel that. I've decided I also want to be training a world champ Olympian history maker when I'm in my 70s.
