That 9.85 from '22 is literally his only sub 9.90s in the last 12yrs!

A few sprinters stand out to me as truly exceptional. Su Bingtian. To run a 9.82 at his age (31), from his ethnic background, with his stocky frame. Simply unbelievable. Justin Gatlin. To have still been running world-leading sub 10 second sprints at 38-39 years old is just outstanding, only Kim Collins exceeds that kind of longevity. We don't even know what his peak years might have looked like given he was banned. The fact he even came back to world class sprinting after the bans is an impressive feat. Yohan Blake. Technically no man has covered 200 meters on a track faster than him, not even prime bolt. If Sprinting was formatted more logically, such as measuring the time from the moment you launch off your starting blocks, he'd be the world record holder in that event. Usain Bolt. I don't have to even explain.

Yohan Blake, may be able to qualify for the 2024 Jamaica Olympic Track and Field Team but no guarantee. The one challenge Yohan Blake is having really is recovery time and training volume. Yohan Blake is a truly amazing athlete and extremely talented one of the best sprinters in the sport of Track and Field for his era of 2008 to 2016 his arguably in the running of top 4 male short sprinters in the world: Usain Bolt, Justin Gatlin, Tyson Gay, Asafa Powell. Once he is that company, then you talk of Yohan Blake being one of the best male short sprinters in the history of Track and Field. Yohan Blake, now being an elite track and field athlete in the short sprints he has the challenge of recovery time increasing and the need for the training volume to decrease. This is due to a reduction in cell turnover as people age, this gets to a point when he cannot sustain significant training volume to reach the level of athletic performance in the of combination Muscular Endurance, Neuromuscular Firing, Speed of Muscle Contraction, and training of max velocity sprint mechanics needed when performing at his highest levels of sprinting velocity and performance. This leads to an unfortunate reality, that the sport of Track and Field especially in sprinting requires such high levels of performance that sprinters in their mid to late 30's rarely are able to compete on the elite professional due to recurrent overuse injuries such as muscle strains or reduction of performances in season due a needed reduction in training volume overtime with longer progressions for increased recovery time. I have seen it many times with athletes I have coached on the elite level, and it is a challenging space to be in for a Track and Field Coach and Elite Athlete Sprinter in which you want to push as hard and as long as possible, but you don't want to get injured overtime that fine line and balance gets harder to know and manage. So Yohan Blake is an amazing athlete with a superb career that is towards its end, at least for this stage. He can always do masters track and field or see if he wants to try another event possibly that maybe more suitable for him at this stage of his athletic career and development. Wish him all the best and happy to have seen him perform.

My personal opinion is he is very likely to be in better shape than his time suggests. Only two years ago he won the Jamaican championships in 9.85, so the injury must be the limiting factor. The question is, which part of his race it is affecting and what is the viability of its complete recovery. That's his body. The rest is up to whether he has the mental resiliance to see it through.
