An Olympic Warm-Up

Representing Australia, 19-year-old Michelle Jenneke warms up and then smokes her competition in the 100-meter hurdles during the 2012 World Junior Championships in Barcelona. Stormy will be cheering for the US team as the Olympics launches this week, but I’ll be honest: My allegiance might just veer toward Australia in the 100-meter hurdles. H/T Ghost of the Flea
