IAAF World Relay Men's 4x400 preview
IAAF World Relay Men's 4x400 preview
The 4x400-meter relay may not be the final event at major championships, but I consider it the finale. Whatever comes after it is just the encore.
The International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), also known as the Department of Redundancy Department, looks to crown its first official 4x400-meter World Relay relay champion. Though the title is technically vacant, the world is well aware that the United States is the true incumbent to the 1600-meter relay throne.
Or, they usually are.
We’ll break down the medal contenders for the Men’s 4x400-meter along with personal bests, seasonal bests, and mildly interesting facts about everyone else in the field.
UNITED STATES - National Record - 2:54.29 | Season Best - 2:59.73
Name // Personal Best // Season Best
Torrin Lawrence - 45.33 (2013) | 45.34
Tony McQuay - 44.40 (2013) | 44.92
LaShawn Merritt - 43.74 (2013) | 44.14
Clayton Parros - 45.42 (2014) | 45.42
Christian Taylor - 45.17 (2014) | 45.17
David Verburg - 44.75 (2013) | 45.03
The Team USA 4x400-meter Relay is many things. They’re the outdoor world record holders. They’re the newly minted indoor world record holders. They’re the reigning outdoor World Champions. They’re the defending indoor World Champions.
They are, to all appearances, the best relay team in the world. But they’re neither the 2012 Olympic Champions nor the 2014 Penn Relays Champions.
Thoroughly beaten in London and bizarre miscues in Philadelphia have cost the Americans two major relay wins. In both instances, the Bahamas has seized the opportunity, but we’ll get to them later.
The first question is can Team USA bring home yet another 4x400-meter gold? Yes.
Using any combination of the six men above, Team USA could walk away the victors. The sextet are all in good form and as long as their exchanges aren’t complete disasters, then they should be fine.
It’s also insane to imagine that based on seasonal bests, Christian Taylor could be on the final squad. Yes, the triple jumper extraordinaire also has world-class quarter-mile speed.
So based on what’s above, if I had to arbitrarily pick a a team and an order, it would be Verburg, to McQuay, to Taylor, to Merritt.
The second question, which we’ve been emailed by a few hopefully fans, is whether the U.S. can get an American and World outdoor record to match their indoor one.
For us, that discussion isn’t even on the dinner table. It’s still on the shelves at the grocery store, waiting to be bought.
The 2:54.29 squad of Andrew Valmon, Quincy Watts, Butch Reynolds, Michael Johnson shouldn’t be concerned this weekend, or for many weekends in the future.
Still, Team USA once again finds itself in the gold medal spotlight--but they’re not alone.

BAHAMAS - National Record - 2:56.72 | Season Best = 3:00.78
Name // Personal Best // Season Best
Chris Brown - 44.40 (2008) | 45.23 | 45.58
Michael Mathieu - 45.06 (2012) | 45.34
Ramon Miller - 44.87 (2012) | 45.21
Wesley Neymour - 45.54 (2013) | 46.42
Demetrius Pinder - 44.77 (2012) | 45.59
LaToy Williams - 44.73 (2009) | 45.58
From the vault of “Things That Could Never Happen in the United States,” I bring you a crowd of bank goers going absolutely bonkers for track and field. I don’t think everyone even knows what’s going on; they’re just jumping up and down and yelling.
If this happened stateside, I guarantee you that’d the SWAT team would be on the scene in no less than two minutes.
In recent years, the Bahamas 4x400-meter team has been perpetual party spoilers (to the Americans) and national heroes (to the Bahamans, obviously).
As I’ve already mentioned above, their electrifying final 50-meters at the 2012 Olympic Games and inadvertent-totally-not-their-fault-but-still hilarious handoff at the 2014 Penn Relays resulted in the small caribbean nation defeating the United States.
Bahamas abides by the “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” thought process and have retained their Olympic champion team from two years ago.
At the Penn Relays, the winning relay of Michael Mathieu (45.7), Demetrius Pinder (44.7), Chris Brown (45.09), and Ramon Miller (45.32) showed that they still mean business.
Also, in what’s another case of ageless wonder, Chris Brown ran the Master’s 35-year-old 400-meter record this indoor season with a mark of 45.58. I hope I ran run 200-meters in that same time when I’m 35-years-old.
Similar to the United States, the Bahamas are rounding into fine form. With no more major relay championships this summer, they look to avenge a poor performance from Moscow 2013, where the team of Chris Brown, Wesley Neymour, LaToy Williams, and O’Jay Ferguson didn’t even make the final.
Even though they had the Bahamas title scrawled across their chest, don’t mistake that team for the team that’ll be competing for gold on their home soil. Home-field advantage is a real thing.

Rusheen McDonald - 45.10 (2012) | 45.29
Edino Steele - 45.38 (2012) | 45.44
Don’t let their 3:04.99 finish at the 2014 Penn Relays fool you. Of the team we saw in Philadelphia, only one member will be making the trip to Nassau, Bahamas--Chumaine Fitten, who split 45.45 on the third leg.
That gives Jamaica, who were the 2013 World Outdoor silver medalists, five legs that have run 45.mid this season. That’s not too shabby.
