Summary

Richson Simeon competed in the 100m in the Rio olympics in 2016. And got last place with an 11.81. By comparison, the winner of that event was Usain Bolt with a 9.81. Simeon was running for a country he wasn't even born in, in an event he had never competed in until that year. Why would he even waste his time showing up, just to be embarrassed. It's not like he pulled up with a hamstring injury, or gave up, either. He ran his fastest and got smoked, Richson Simeon was THE WORST. My name is Matt Johnston, and I just love a good underdog story. I'm fascinated with people who gave their best and didn't just come up short ...but came in dead last.
