Carmelita Jeter's primal scream in London was, well iconic. Destroying a record from the early 1980s was past being cool, it was, well, one of my favorite moments in London. Carmelita ran a fast relay at Mt. SAC, but had a cramp in the 100 meters. She is fine, per her twitter feed. And that, is a great thing.
