Jamaica's Men Relay Team Wins Gold in 4x100m Final




Another day, and there are some more medals for Jamaica in the Olympics!


Congratulations to our 4x100m men's relay team: Nesta Carter, Michael Frater, Usain Bolt and Asafa Powell. The men won gold and broke the world record with a time of 37.10 seconds. Bolt ran the third leg of the relay and passed the baton to Asafa who took it home for the team gold. I am so happy Asafa got his first gold!


Apparently Bolt kept running after he passed the baton to Asafa and ended up beating one of the team's competing in the race. LOL!


Congrats also to Trinidad and Tobago who won the silver in 38.06 seconds and Japan who took the bronze in 38.15 seconds.

Jamaicans gone wild !!!!!!!!!!! The government has set up big screens in all the towns - Half Way Tree, Portmore, Montego Bay...all over. Everybody dressed in the black green and gold..at the workplace on the streets. It's pandemonium here in our nation as we celebrate the Jamaica Olympics in Beijing.
