Here is the photo gallery for the Belgcom Ivo Van Damme Memorial, held in Brussels on August 27, 2010. Even with a less than normal start, Tyson Gay ran a superb 9.79 to take the win!
Also running well was Leonel Manzano, who ran 3:32.37, to take the 3:33.01 of one Jim Ryun, from 1967, off the US top ten list. Note that Leonel, when he finished third in the Emsley Carr Mile on August 14, at AVIVA London, ran 3:50.34, which took Jim Ryun’s 1967 WR of 3:51.1 off the US top ten list!
Lisa Galaviz, one of the top U.S. steeplers for nearly a decade now, ran a fine 9:24.83, her personal best, in the steeple in Brussels! Lisa has raced all over the world this year in the steeple!
