Olympic 1996 sprint double champion over 200m and 400m, Michal Johnson talked about his world record run over the half lap at the Games.
The American talked about what he did and didn’t do right and his reactions to getting – what he believed was a brilliant start to brak the world in the 200m.
Johnson set a world mark of 19.32 seconds – running in his gold shoes.
His mark has since been lowered by Jamaica’s Usain Both.
