Evelyn Ashford all natural, all the time. One of the top 4 greatest female sprinters ever!
Evelyn Ashford.. my very favourite.. love her
I worked with Evelyn for 4 years she worked at the Disneyland resort as a candy maker and she was just the sweetest most genuine person I have ever came across! She was a supervisor for years until she left the company
I love Evelyn Ashford she was my idol growing up! Never will forget meeting her in person at the 1983 World Championship in Track and Field in Helsinki.
Tight! Flo Fastest but Evelyn G.O.A.T.! Felix & Shelly not far behind Evelyn!
ashford: what an amazing talent, boy could she run like the wind awesome talent.
Exactly right. She was an amazing athlete.
So glad I could see this. Growing up to watching her was just so much fun. Her discipline and great running was always to watch!
Like Merlene Ottey, Evelyn Ashford just another incredible Athlete and Olympic Icon!!
I always thought Evelyn was one of the coolest Olympic athletes of all time, she's certainly one of the greatest Olympic athletes.
NkrumahTure She was so cool here that she barely reacted on winning and only held her arms aloft when she heard she got the OR.
What a cool lady. Such an athlete Evelyn is
What a joy it is to watch Evelyn Ashford run!
+Julia Santos Solomon ....Indeed! She is just pure poetry in motion!
+Julia Santos Solomon I like her. but is she taking steroid like others?
Julia Santos Solomon awesome comment
carla Bisnar I don't believe she ever tested positive for any steroid.
She had won World Cup doubles in 79 and 81 beating the E Germans. Those were major international wins!
I've loved her all along...
After the olympics ashford went to Europe and beat everybody.
merlene ottey was amazing exactly how many olympic finals did she make and over how many years.
Evelyn, all natural running style.
Evelyn ashford una de las mas grandes corredoras conjuntamente con allyson Félix son mis favoritas Teo setiembre 30 2020
Such a shame we couldn’t have a Ashford v Gohr showdown that year, they were both in great form.
Testament to Eveyn's grace and speed that I remembered her name even though she never gets a mention these days.. at this time the east Germans were all on drugs I recall
Impecable atleta en una década dominada x el doping .
Angella Tayor developed her static nerve problem in training in the 82 off season training. She didn't perform well in the 83 season (especially after her great 82 season), she was expected to double at the world university games in 83, and should have hope to do better at the world championships in 83. But the static nerve (which is the biggest nerve in the body) problem plauge her for the rest of her career. She injured her left quad badly in her first round heat, here.
Allyson Felix, who came in 5th at the 2012 Olympics would have won this race @ 10.89, but Evelyn did go on to run 10.76 after this which would have gotten her silver at London 2012.
Evelyn Ashford would have ran a world record if there was a 2.0m wind behind her back, the best naturally gifted woman sprinter before the millenium.
sandocean17 Not all that tall either.
@@pix046she was around 5'4 and very tiny
I so disagree, in their rivalry.. Gohr has won 3 races of 15, one of those races was the final of the 83 WC in which Ashford pulled a hamstring (dnf), but that still counts as a defeat.That would be the last time see would beat Ashford. And all remaining races were won relatively easily by Ashford.
Great run by Evleyn here and the rest of the field, except for the Canadian girls I thought AngellaTaylor would be the silver medalist here, but she injured herself in her heat and appartently suffered from a static nerve problem thoughout most of her career. But even Angela Bailey seemed a little off form here, good for Alice Brown and her silver, great sprinting ...
Blistering speed! So fast her time after against Gohr would've won the 2015, and 2017 womens 100m World Championship title! I thought yall said athletes evolved?
The great Evelyn Ashford, you go girl...
@rhoomsy thanks, but i meant how many olympic finals did she make over 100m 200m and relays.
本当に、すごかった、、マナーの良さも最高、
But for Flow Jo, ashford wouldvhavevhotbgreatervsppreciation and recognition.
What a pace

1. Evelyn Ashford (USA) 10.97 ;
2. Alice Brown (USA) 11.13;
3. Merlene Ottey-Page (JAM) 11.16;
4. Jeanette Bolden (USA) 11.25;
5. Grace Jackson (JAM) 1139;
6. Angela Bailey (CAN) 11.40;
7. Heather Oakes (GBR) 11.43;
8. Angela Taylor (CAN) 11.62.
@vhickerson I don't believe so, I know Angela was from Coventry, England; and Donevan was from Jamacia.
Yes, I'm aware of the conditions. I was talking about times, period. 10.98 is still a very good time. With this time, Ashford would have beat Felix for the US Track & Field National title, which she won in 11+ seconds.
Greatest
They were running into a headwind...hence slower times even for that era.
1984 Olympic champion that's Evelyn we are now in 2022 that's 36years ago Evelyn rite now must be in her fifties now...wud really love to know wea n wat she is doing
She is in her 60s
This is the year I was born
How come?🤔🤔
Where was Flo Jo?
@casadegolfas So did Ottey, Brown and Bolden.....
Fantastic body...
Where was Flo Jo at this time?
daveyork0 She didnt run the 100m at this time but she got silver in the 200m at this Olympics.
marlies gohr was missed!
Hold the phone ..... the 200m winner usa runner did not run in the 100m nor did Flo Jo or they didn't qualify?? Aaaand why didn't evelyn run the 200m? Surely she would've contested the 🏅medal? Pls explain?
Evelyn pulled up injured in the first round of the 200 at the US trials and didn't qualify. Valerie Briscoe Hooks ran the 200/400 double. FloJo ran the 200/400 at the trials but didn't qualify at 400m.
@@waynehentley4332 wow thank u very interesting reading explains a lot.
If Jeanette Bolden had drive phase she could have won.
Well not against Ashford but at least medaled.
gohr was missed why? because we needed a steroid burger silver medalist?

Одни негры, ни одной белокожей спортсменки...
marlies gohr was missed! i think she would av won and ashford would av revenge in the relay.
Wonder if there were any non dopers
All were non dopers in this race!
Coleman did some terrible Olympic commentaries over the years and this has got to be as bad as any.
Why? What did he say?
