His age when he broke the 10-second barrier
[edit]IAAF website says it was on 10 July 2009 and he was horn on 26 December 1989. If my calculation is correct, he was then 19 years and 196 days old, not "at 19 years, 197 days" as stated in the article. Could anyone check this, please? --Dwy (talk) 04:58, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

Humor (humour)
[edit]I wonder if this joke is intentional: "Away from athletics, Blake continues to be a keen cricketer..."
And if not, perhaps it should be reworded? Huw Powell (talk) 00:19, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
