the victories by the American 4x400 relay teams makes the shameful showing by the U.S. 4x100 teams a bit more bearable, but only a bit.
the 400 is a better race anyway, i think.
I agree. The 400 is a better test of speed and strategy with a touch of endurance thrown in to make it interesting.
The 100 is more iconic. I was sick at seeing those races
