Which Planet ?


"He came, He ran, He conquered"
The whole world gaped when this thing ran 100m and 200m in record time of 9.58 and 19.19 seconds respectively in the World Championships in Atheletics, Berlin 2009. The "It" started off in its usual sanguine attitude and once started it never gave thought to anything else except a World Record.

The finish in Berlin was unlike any other. This thing, clad in yellow finished at least a prominent 5m ahead of the second. The time taken by the thing to finish the race belittled the second guy's time even though the latter had an amazing one(in Berlin, it ran a whooping 9.58s while the second guy had an amazing 9.71s but as you can see - "No comparison") . Considering all this, the photofinish machine got no job as usual for whenever the it runs there is no need for the machine.

After the race is over, the it ran for another 200m in quite the same speed. This led its coach to think of letting the thing loose in 400m too. And if this series of making the it run in all the races, the thing will break all the records in the track events. Not stopping with that, it will better its own record at a regular period of twelve months.

Such astonishing inhuman talent coupled with such great will power and determination, brings just one doubt about the thing in people's minds. It's trademark of pointing to the distant something outside the earth gives this doubt a certainty, and the doubt shall alway remain -

" Which planet ??? "
