Don’t front. Who else was getting tired of watching swimming? When I heard the first announcement that track and field would be getting started, I had to fan myself at the thought of all the gorgeous men in super tight spandex, all sweaty with thighs that could crush a watermelon. Whew! There isn’t just one cutie that catches my eye, so I thought I’d share a few sho have been all over my TV and have kept me tuned in to the Olympics day in and day out. Delicious much? You decide and let me know who you’re feeling or who you would add to the list?
Justin Gatlin
When I told my friend that Justin Gatlin had run over the weekend and that she had missed it, she took a moment to proclaim how fine that boy was to her. And yeah, he’s got it going on. He’s also already got a medal around his neck in this year’s games–a bronze for the very intense 100 meter final against the likes of Usain Bolt and Yohan Blake. After a four-year suspension for testing positive for a banned substance, Gatlin is back in full effect. And looks good while doing it!
Ryan Bailey
Another hot commodity from the US, Bailey didn’t come out with gold (he took fifth place in the 100 meter dash), but he did come out with mad fans (of the womanly persuasion). Plus, he can still get a medal as he part of the epic 4×100 meter relay. I’m absolutely, positively digging those lips, and the fatherly love he shows his little man is hot as well. Go new boo! Yeah, I have a long list of imaginary boos…
Usain Bolt
Maybe I like Usain Bolt, the world’s fastest man and a gold medalist once again in the 100 meter final, is because he’s a character. Not only did he kiss the ground, babies, fans, and do the lightning bolt after his win this weekend, but I think I even peeped him doing the Dougie. Plus, I’m always a fan of an extra tall man with a good sense of humor and an accent. Ya dig?
Trey Hardee
Okay, so the decathlon isn’t probably on your list of ish to watch in the Olympics, but if you miss it, you’ll miss out on cutie Trey Hardee. And he’s got body, so why would you want to do that?? He’s set to get his start in the grueling sport this week, so keep your ears and eyes open for the Birmingham, Al. born boy.
Yohan Blake
Get it right! Usain Bolt isn’t the only male sprinter from Jamaica getting everyone’s attention. Yohan Blake is leaving people in his dust and gaining new fans too. The world champion in the 100 meters took silver behind his training partner and friend, Usain Bolt, but “Blake the beast” is sure to scare some folks again really soon. Like in the 200 meter relay coming up. Like what you see?
Tyson Gay
Haha! Don’t let the name fool you, ladies. The famed sprinter is fair game for the ladies and one of my favorite people to watch run. Those thighs! Anywho, the fine fella from Kentucky couldn’t push those thighs past Gatlin, Blake or Bolt in the 100 meters last night, but he’s still got a chance to help the US bring home gold in the 4×100 meter relay. You got it, boo! And even if you don’t, I’ll enjoy watching…just not in slow motion (they look so crazy in slow motion!).
Asafa Powell
Who doesn’t love that smile???
Another hot Jamaican, Powell’s name should be pretty easy to remember for you, now that you know the delicious-ness that’s associated with it. He couldn’t get a medal against his homeboys Blake and Bolt, and he’s not even running with them in the 4×100 due to an injury according to his agent, so what you saw of him yesterday is probably going to be all you get. But we’ve got a few photos to hold you over until Rio…if he’s lucky…
So which male track stars are eye candy for you? And who are you rooting for in general? Let us know below!
