Stampman Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Depending who you believe nobody tripped her per se--it was more of a collision...Weird thing is I watched that but can't remember who it was--but it was one of the longer distance races I believe--So I claim .000000000001% of the correct answer...

Saintsfan Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Mary Decker fell over Zola Budd, no tripping was involved! Budd was born a South African but was granted a Briotish passport in order to compete in LA.And Decker was a cry baby! Her husband was Richard Slaney, a British hammer thrower (I think it was hammer!) and I assume it was the 3000m from memory. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
