But if you are not sure that you have the absolute fastest possible 100 meter dash then there is always a possibility that someone else will figure out the way to get it and your win is just temporary achievement. What used to be the record for 100 m dash at one point of time can't ensure even a third place in the modern sport. Your thoughts on this?First Place doesn't need to know that they have the absolute fastest possible 100 meter dash, they only need a 100 meter dash that is faster than everyone else.
