Despite being lost in the Paris 2024 excitement, where are the men? Sources say with so much excitement that Usain Bolt might consider coming out of Retirement. Can Antonio Watson run a sub 44.00 seconds? Expectations are that multiple Jamaicans might deliver in this event, at Paris 2024. Those who have been asking Glen Mills for 400m Stars see Antonio Watson victory as Redemption for Glen Mills -“One Bob”. Men 400m will be a thriller in Paris. A better script could not have been written, to highlight the Budapest campaign. Performances were at an all time high in Budapest.

Expectations are Elaine Thompson – Herah will join the 200m chase to break the world record of 21.34 seconds. With some effort, ETH can break the 100m world record of 10.49 seconds. Her performance should produce a time of 10.47 seconds. Fans are expecting performances in the Women 200m event to be better than 21.53 seconds. Athletes, whose 200m performance is slower than 22.00 seconds, should consider participating in another event. Fans are anticipating the winning time in Paris to be 21.24 seconds. Two Stars, Shericka Jackson, and Elaine Thompson Herah are planning to assault the current 200m record of 21.34 seconds.

Elaine Thompson Herah will be fine. In 2024, she will realize that she has an opportunity to accomplish something that has never been done and no chance of being repeated. She will have a chance to complete a Triple Double in the 100m and 200m at the Olympics. She will have an opportunity to add some granite to her already cemented Track and Field career. Her Legacy, despite a Sub-Par 2023 season is etched in the annals of Olympic History.

Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce is expected to be competitive in the 100m and might get a Silver or Bronze medal in the event. Fans do not believe Shelley Ann Fraser Pryce will be a Factor in the Women 200m in Paris 2024 but strange things happen in Track and Field. She will be an excellent asset in the 4X100m Relay.

Shericka Jackson has taken ownership of the Women 200m event. The event has become the Shericka Jackson Invitational. Gabby Thomas has significant work to do. Shacari Richardson is unlikely to contend for the Gold medal in the 200m. In 2024 Elaine Thompson – Herah (ETH) will raise the excitement level in this event. Do not be surprised if Shericka Jackson is challenged. There was an aura of frustration and tiredness by Shericka Jackson at the end of season 2023. Regardless when those two Stars come around the bend at Paris 2024, remove or lose your hat. The Tail Gate Partycontinues.
