4x100m finals coming up!🥇 If you saw the USA crash out despite having guys capable of 9.8 seconds, you know it's not a case of just putting the fastest sprinters out there Check these @ourracebook extracts explaining the differing demands of the 4 relay legs👇

Relays are on @Olympics! We talk about them when they go wrong. But how complex can it be? Well here's some insight from @TeamGB 4x100m🥇winners @jasongardener, @campbelldarren, @MarlonDevonish & @mlewisfrancis

The US team showed us yesterday how challenging the relay can be. This new book from @bcemercer and @TrystanBevan1 on Team GB's 2004 surprise triumph is sure to be a great read. Looking forward to getting my hands on it! 🏅

Well said, the last time I was part of a winning 4x100m relay team that won on flat speed alone was at a Midlands athletic open meeting, as a junior athlete! #learn @ourracebook @Olympics20Tokyo not Telford open. 😉

'On paper the US team should have been favourites' Ronnie Baker said: “We are all running fast right now. Fred is running 9.8 and I am running 9.8" Was true in 2004 and it's true now. The relay isn't just stacking the fastest athletes and hoping for the best... @ourracebook

The calls where truly enlightening as I was so interested in hearing my teammates journeys and perspective leading to that magical night. Your performance sport experience along with talented writing skills has certainly produced an excellent account of Our Race. Thank you 👍🏽

Halfway through (2nd changeover) and enjoying this, especially the honesty and even when knowing the ’ending’. What though is the smell of the “freshly cut sand from the infield” in chapter 4?

Always remember going to the British Champs in Bedford in 2005 and warming up next to @MarlonDevonish and @campbelldarren - I was a million miles off their standard but even to say that I’d warmed up next to them and raced in the heats after them was great

What has been amazing during our sessions writing the book was hearing the different perspectives from Darren, Marlon and Mark on the race that night. Truly fascinating as we had not previously spent time together properly to share each others experiences on…Our Race!

So true! All the fantastic memories came flooding back, alongside the boys’ perspectives it added interesting insight.
