Zola Budd:
1984 Olympics- the Budd/Decker race
1985: Zola smashed the 5,000m record. She ran bare-foot and completed the distance in a time of 14 minutes and 48.07 seconds - 10 seconds faster than the previous record.
She returned to South Africa in 1988 and married Mike Pieterse in 1989. They have three children. I understand she still runs for enjoyment and pleasure.
Mary Decker? Interesting you raced with her Teigyr, and I guess it's a mild consolation to hear her reaction was not reserved for Zola only.
However, I have never been interested in how Decker fared after such an ungracious display.
