Marita Koch (331 words)
The 1985 season was a long one for those European athletes competing in the World Cup in Canberra in October and consequently Marita Koch competed sparingly, but with top quality performances.
At Canberra, Koch was expected to win the 200m, which she did easily in a time of 21.90sec, but on the strength of Vlaykina's season to date, the 400m was not considered a pushover for Koch.
In the final, Koch produced one of the greatest athletics feats in history, speeding through 200m in 22.4sec and finishing in an incredible 47.60sec.
