Michael Johnson - King Of Track And Field
Michael Johnson is one of my favorite track and field athlete of all time. Track star Michael Johnson dominated the 400m with win usually a distance away from his closest rival. He still owns the 400m world record in 43.18 sec. His most amazing run was his 200m run in 1996 Olympic which earned him a world record in 19.32 sec. I believe his time is very difficult to beat for a long time.

The only man at the moment that I feel has a chance to go for that time is the current 100m world record holder Usain Bolt but not at least for 4 or 5 more years.
Well what do you know. Usain Bolt has broken that record in the Beijing Olympics with the time 19.30 sec. Check out below for track star Michael Johnson 400m pictures, world record videos, biography and his latest news on his running career.

TamaraG Jul 26, 2012 @ 6:17 pm | deleteMy son has watched several videos of Michael Johnson running. He runs sprints for our varsity track team, the longest being the 200 M and he would love to be as fast as MJ. -
good lens -
This lens has rekindle fond memories of Michael Johnson performance at the 1996 Olympic Games held in Atlanta. Those gold shoes and upright running style was unique...setting records in the 200 meter dash and the 400M. Although Usain Bolt has broken his record time of 19:32 seconds for the 200M, his legacy will always be that of an Olympic Champion!.Also, I remember quite vividly Muhammad Ali holding the torch and lighting the flames for the start of the games.
