I have a first pick for the dashes: I believe that Me'Lisa Barber will win the 60 m competition during the world indoor championships this year.

This thread title tripped me out, as I just got back from an Indoor meet in Moscow, Idaho at 1am last night.

Well -- she did win -- did not she. It was a repeat of the US Indoor Championships.

As to the Polish dashers (male and female), I stand by my prediction that they will gain within this century (21st) upset the British supremacy in the sprints in Europe -- this time, it will happen outdoors.
Kuc is an also runner on the men's 4 x 100 m relay, and he got to a semifinal with a PB of 6.64. Knowing that these guys are near perfect on exchanges 9 out of 10 times, you have to subtract about 2 to 3 seconds of their season bests to get their relay time.
The Polish dashers decided not to prepare for the Indoor Championships; for people who did not even try to get ready for the competition, they have done pretty well so far.
Christie Aaron -- she has not won much, if anything on individual basis as of late -- the French cannot be happy. When I looked at her recent picture, she looks like she needs a vacation -- she is too young to be so tired. It makes her look like a granny.

If Shawn Crawford was part of the team USA in 60 meters, it would be an American 1-2 sweep, but Terrence Trammell is not a flat--dash specialist, and, to give credit that is due, Andrey Yepishin ran a hell of a race -- new Russian national record -- even, if, like in a case of the Polish Marcin Urbas's (do not compare with Marian Woronin's Polish national record over 100 m -- this guy was close to 10.00 flat over 100 m for some time -- European record until Linford Christie improved it: both guys most likely did ... Christie got busted when he became Master) 19.98s over 200 m, another Polish national record, it was a fluke.

In men's 400 m, I do believe that Milton Campbell will win (by now, he should sufficiently experienced). I think that Francique Alleyne will be second, and Molefe California third. I see Devian Clark coming a third place -- he needs to be sneaky to get a medal or win, but she will be too certain of himself, and this is how he will miss the ceremony, or rather being the center of attention during the ceremony.

The US 400 m specialists were a disappointment (even in the gold medal relay), but I was right with respect to Devian Clark.
