Topic started by: DecFan user	Posted: Dec 09, 2010 This must have been done before by someone, by I haven't seen it. I use the Mureika calculator adjusting for wind and altitude. I list the thousandths just to show the rank order via the calculator, but surely that last digit is not significant. Numbers are actual, wind reading, adjusted time. 1. Huffins Atlanta 96 10.22 0.9 10.279 2. O'Brien Tokyo 91 10.41 -1.6 10.305 Huffins Talence 97 10.29 1.4 10.367 3. Clay Eugene 08 10.39 -0.4 10.370 4. Thompson Stuttgart 86 10.26 2.0 10.371 Clay Gotzis 10 10.35 0.2 10.375 O'Brien Talence 94 10.43 -0.8 10.380 Thompson LA 84 10.44 -1.0 10.380 Huffins Goteburg 95 10.34 0.8 10.385 Huffins Indianapolis 97 10.35 0.6 10.391 5. Eaton Eugene 10 10.37 0.9 10.403 6. Hardee Eugene 08 10.43 -0.4 10.410 O'Brien Atlanta 96 10.32 1.7 10.420 Thompson Edinburgh 84 10.37 0.9 10.422 O'Brien Sacramento 95 10.36 1.5 10.443 Hardee Austin 06 10.35 2.5 10.446 O'Brien Knoxville 94 10.31 2.6 10.449 Corrections welcome! I'm pretty sure these are all the 100m's run in decathlons>8000pts with an adjusted time under 10.450. Note two other times in 2010 for comparison: Eaton's 10.33 -1.0 in the open 100 in Berkeley at PAC-10s adjusts to 10.273, faster than #1 on the list. Hardee's 10.39 0.2 at Gotzis adjusts to 10.417, only slightly inferior to his best, but he was a DNF in that decathlon, so the performance doesn't make the list. With the quickest 100 and 4 of the top 10 times, clearly Huffins is the fastest of all time in the decathlon, but Eaton has the potential to displace him. IP: 166.82....
DecFan user	Posted: Dec 09, 2010 Here is a corrected list. I had overlooked some performances by Clay, O'Brien, and Huffins that make the list. 1. Huffins Atlanta 96 10.22 0.9 10.279 2.

DecFan user	Posted: Dec 09, 2010 Here's the list lowering the decathlon score requirement to 7000. I'm less confident here - there may have been races run in 10.5x with strong negative winds by less well known decathletes that I've missed. 1. Huffins Atlanta 96 10.22 0.9 10.279 2. O'Brien Tokyo 91 10.41 -1.6 10.305 Huffins Talence 97 10.29 1.4 10.367 3. Clay Eugene 08 10.39 -0.4 10.370 4. Thompson Stuttgart 86 10.26 2.0 10.371 Huffins NO 92 10.55 -2.5 10.374 Clay Gotzis 10 10.35 0.2 10.375 O'Brien Talence 94 10.43 -0.8 10.380 Thompson LA 84 10.44 -1.0 10.380 Huffins Goteburg 95 10.34 0.8 10.385 Clay Gotzis 07 10.40 -0.5 10.386 O'Brien NO 92 10.50 -1.7 10.386 Huffins Indianapolis 97 10.35 0.6 10.391 Clay Gotzis 06 10.42 -0.6 10.400 5.

DecFan user	Posted: Dec 10, 2010 A few corrections to the above lists, thanks to a careful reader at the trackandfieldnews.com board: Adjusted time for Clay 07 Gotzis should be 10.385, not 386 Adjusted time for Clay 06 Gotzis should be 10.398, not 400 Wind speed for Eaton 10 Eugene should be 0.5, not 0.9. The calculation was done with the correct windspeed; the error was in the transcription. More corrections welcome! IP: 166.82.... Posts from the same IP: DecFan
DecFan user	Posted: Dec 10, 2010 Another correction: In the list including all 7000+ decathlons, the adjusted time for Huffins in New Orleans 1992 should be 10.412. Not sure where that big error came from . . . IP: 166.82.... Posts from the same IP: DecFan
olorin user	Posted: June 25, 2011 Dec Fan Looking at your adjustmnets is 10.33 +0.6 is equal 10.371 (same as Thompson)? Can you do similar table for the 110h? IP: 124.190....
