For sheer sports hotness, it’s hard to go wrong with decathletes, who must train in multiple disciplines. A big tip of the hat to Finneye for pointing us to this Belgian decathlon site. They have extensive photo galleries, and here are some examples:

According to the AP, the South African Olympic committee is finally investigating the Caster Semenya case. Questions about the runner’s gender, and how SA officials handled a “developing situation” prior to the IAAF world championships in Berlin, have continued to emerge in the SA press. The hearings began last Friday and are sure to [...]
South African runner Caster Semenya, whose gender has come into question very publicly after her victory at the World Championships, is “glamming it up” on the cover of You magazine with the headline, “Wow, Look at Caster Now!” I don’t know what she usually looks like out of her running clothes, so maybe she usually [...]
Semenya has returned home to Johannesburg amid a hero’s welcome…and a growing international incident around her gender and the investigation thereof. The IAAF are culpable for the leaks that keep happening, since — according to their own rules — the investigation should have been kept confidential. The South African government is making loud noises of [...]

Usain Bolt demolished the world record in the men’s 200 meters, running a 19.19 to win the gold medal at the World Track and Field Championships in Berlin. The old record, held by Bolt, was 19.30; to shave .11 off the mark is amazing. Bolt beat the second-place finisher by .62 seconds, the largest margin [...]
One of the stranger sports stories is occurring in Berlin, where an investigation has been opened into the gender of the winner of the women’s 800 meters at the World Track and Field Championships. Reports Phil Hersh in the L.A. Times:
At least two of the seven runners who lost to Caster Semenya are convinced she [...]
Here’s how dominant Usain Bolt was in winning the 100 meters at the World Track and Field Championships in Berlin? American Tyson Gay set a personal best (9.71) and a U.S. record and still finished a distant second to Bolt, the Jamaican superstar who ran 9.58 seconds, the fastest ever and the first run in [...]
We have featured Bjorn Barrefors before. He is a 21-year-old Swede who competes in the decathlon for the University of Nebraska (he has his own Twitter feed). What caught our eye were these images of Barrefors at the recent European Combined meet in Poland taken by the awesome Trackpic. They’re from Barrefors tossing the discus.
In [...]
Dean Koga of the Seattle Frontrunners was injured when shrapnel from a 9-inch bomb, one of three tossed, hit him during the track and field competition here in Copenhagen at the World Outgames. The incident is being called a hate crime. Koga, photo right, is being kissed by a fellow runner the day after, glad [...]
French decathlete Romain Barras has been an Outsports favorite since his webmaster asked permission to run some of our photos of Barras on his website. Unlike many jocks, Barras (29, 6-4 and 187 pounds) doesn’t run away from the gays. In fact, he is flattered to be considered hot since we have such good taste [...]
