At the age of 38 he is competing 100 m race, that's really inspiring, he proved age is just a number.

[@beewalk34]

Back in the day most elite sprinters were retired by 28

[@michellegill1278]

Cheating is just a number!

[@vigulfmusicproduct]

It's amazing, and he's a very cool athlete:)

[@Obkerry]

Beautiful podcast. Thanks for bringing Justin on board during this episode. I love him.

[@willstuart4504]

As a Canadian and obviously a Degrasse fan, I have to say I have nothing but respect for Gatlin. The man is fire ...
Almost 40 years old and still bringing it!👍👍🔥
Bolt is the Goat , and likely always will be, but as for longevity. ...pffft, NOBODY is even close. The man is a straight beast.
Great interview gentlemen 👍

[@TheBTMPodcast]

Much appreciated. Gat is the truth fo sure. We hope to get Bolt on this season.

[@mav6232]

this was awesome to watch! thank you! track and field athletes need to do more media because apart from the olympics people dont see them much unless theyre a real fan who watch the circut! But media is how come usain made all that money
Btw you guys have a great personality

[@rockpitts2904]

Justin Gatlin is my favorite Male Track Athlete Of All Time...

[@bartibarti2886]

Cool!

[@davidmanjhu]

Great story about Saints tryout!

[@Tutankhamenreyes]

Indeed

[@tarshaburruss2943]

Bless

[@wallecethomblon431]

Justin Gatlin! And Micheal Roger are two of my favourite sprinters.Inspite of their ages above 35yrs, they are still able to challenge the young sprinters. I do hope these two great sprinters are able to prevail during the US Olympic Trails amonth before the Tokyo Olympic 2020 (2021).Best of luck to both sprinters.

[@ravirajug1137]

Hope he will olympic 2021 100 , 200, 4*100 events

[@marvindavis5481]

I would have put Flo Jo instead of Felix on that 3rd leg.

[@tarshaburruss2943]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🖐

[@meu2488]

Cap 🧢... he knows he would put Bolt last !!! 🤨

[@vevapenn2862]

Where and how...just an old man killing himself whilst Bolt retire with millions and the world record..
