Ten Second Showdown

Legendary commentator Mike Costello explores the explosive drama of the 100m sprint

The explosive drama of a 100m sprint makes it one of those events that seems to transcend sport. Like the world heavyweight boxing championships, the crown of fastest man or woman in the world has an iconic status, drawing people in - captivating even those who might never watch another athletics event in their life.

For decades, legendary commentator Mike Costello described these mini blockbusters live on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ radio. But that 10 seconds only tells part of the story. In this series he also explores what went on behind the races.
