In 2009 the top of the sport was still the Golden League: six meetings, one million dollars for anyone who won their event at all six. Three athletes did it, and two of them raced in Nike. Sanya Richards went six for six over 400 m — 49.57 in Berlin on 14 June, then Oslo, Rome and Paris, 48.94 in Zürich, and 48.83 in Brussels on 4 September, the fastest time run by anyone that year. Kenenisa Bekele, a Nike athlete for more than two decades, matched her over 5000 m and closed Brussels in 12:55.31. They shared the jackpot with Yelena Isinbayeva, $333,333 each.
The roads gave the Nike season its most American moment. On 1 November, Meb Keflezighi — a Nike athlete then, two years before the brand let his contract lapse and Skechers picked him up — won the New York City Marathon in 2:09:15, the first American man to do it since Alberto Salazar in 1982.
Competition briefs — race briefs, or “bun huggers” — are the snug, minimalist bottom half of the classic two-piece athletics kit, worn with a crop top or singlet by sprinters, hurdlers and jumpers for full hip movement with zero loose fabric.
No rule mandates them: World Athletics TR5 names no garment at all. The brief earned the start line on fit through the 1980s, survived a real argument about who decides what women race in, and remains the choice of most championship sprinters today.
