What is your favorite memory.The most amazing race I ever saw was the 200 Breaststroke in the 1968 Olympics. The only gold medal won by a Mexican at the Games Was by Felipe Munoz. Every time he breathed the crowd screamed MEXICO, I have never experienced such passion for a swimming event,(I only saw it on T.V. I can't imagine what it was like in person.)
Dave Wottle (the guy with the hat), 1972 olympic gold in the 800m, in last place at the 600m mark and won by .03 seconds.
Michael Johnson world record in the 200m. May never be broken.
Flo Jo at Seoul, a world record 21.34 in the 200. May never be broken.
OK, swimming: Here is a great olympic moment....for the aussies.
