4 × 400 metres Relay, Men

Date30 September – 1 October 1988
StatusOlympic
LocationOl-lim-pik Ju-gyeong-gi-jang, Seoul Sports Complex, Seoul
Participants99 from 22 countries
Olympic Record 2:57.91 / Sunder Nix • Ray Armstead • Alonzo Babers • Antonio McKay USA / 11 August 1984 / Details

The US had the three fastest 400 metre runners ever in Harry “Butch” Reynolds, Steve Lewis, and Danny Everett, so the result was not in doubt. Lewis had won the 400 gold medal and, in August of 1988, Reynolds had broken Lee Evans esteemed world record from the 1968 Olympics, running 43.29 at the Welklasse Meet in Zürich. If the baton was not dropped, and nobody pulled up, the question was not if they would win, but by how much.

Everett and Lewis ran the first two legs in the final, and both bettered 44 seconds, giving the US a huge early lead. Kevin Robinzine ran the third leg and Reynolds anchored, as the answer to the question became “40 metres.” The scoreboard clock showed the final time to be 2:56.17, tantalizingly missing the 1968 Olympic and World record of 2:56.16, but the official time was found to be equal to the world record.
