I watched a link to Bolt's 100m final and the commentators were gushing all over him, saying that it was the greatest athletic achievement ever because he had won the 100m in three olympics.
While it is commendable, I certainly don't think it comes anywhere closet to being the greatest athletic achievement. Is the 100m that revered that a lot of people think it is that special?
On a similar note - what are some great athletic achievements that are noteworthy?
I think winning multiple TDF's is pretty impressive because it is such a long and grueling event. I think Phelp's dominance is pretty impressive too.
