Zola Budd / Mary Decker collision in 3,000M final (1984) 5

If you don't get it - you have never run /train on the level that requires real competition. ZB was and still is in a different class than MD. If you look at the track records before and after this event [continuing still today] you will clearly see who is the better athlete in heart and soul! If it gets to hot in the kitchen get out, the same in the arena of sport. MD had NO chance that day she knew it. Instead it was better for her to end up with the worlds no 1 number in her hand, stepping with her spikes on Zolas feet and end up crying so the world would feel sorry for her? Years later the two women raced each other again. Research the grace that one of them walked away with - no sour loser this time!
