Michael Phelps set a new world record in the 400m individual medley in today’s Olympic trials. In second place was Ryan Lochte, who, in his quest to finally beat Phelps in the event, swam fast enough to break the old world record. In track and field, Tyson Gay ran the 100 meter in 9.68 seconds, the best time ever recorded. It doesn’t qualify as a world record because the tailwind was too fast.
If anyone’s interested, the NYT has a section devoted to the Beijing Olympics.
