If they would have, we would have heard about it. Maybe some Jungle man deep in the heart of the Amazon that no one knows about might have, but that someone that we know of, no.

I like the Amazon man answer. I found something interesting though: http://worldrec.info/2007/08/28/athletics-100m-what-is-the-fastest-possible-timeThis covers the fastest possible "assembled" 100m based on the best ever recorded split times for every 10m. They add up to about 9.5. However, the fastest first 10m length is 1.69 seconds due to the acceleration time off the blocks, while everything else is in the .85-.90 range.Replace the first 10 meters with a .90 and I'd venture that Bolt last night possibly covered a 100m stretch of the 200m final in under 9 seconds!

Asafa Powel ran 100m in 8.70 seconds as the anchor leg in the 4x100m men's sprint team in the 2008 Beijing Olympics - the fastest electronically timed 100m ever.

Bob Hayes has the fastest hand-timed 100m, also as the anchor leg, as part of the US Olympic Sprint team at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, with a time of 9.5 seconds.

Jim Thorpe wowed the sporting world by winning gold medals in the pentathlon and the decathlon in the 1912 Olympics in Stockholm. Later that year, against opponents like the fabled Army football team, he scored 25 touchdowns for the Carlisle Indian School. Then Thorpe played six years of professional baseball as an outfielder for the New York Giants, the Cincinnati Reds and the Boston Braves. In 1916 his football team, the Canton Bulldogs, won their first of three unofficial national championships, and Thorpe served as the first president of what is now the National Football League. Of mixed European and Native American background, Thorpe was a popular hero; his life story was dramatized in the 1951 film Jim Thorpe, All-American, starring Burt Lancaster. Although he never got rich because of it, Thorpe is considered one of the greatest athletes of the 20th century.

Sandals were the most common footwear in most early civilizations, however, a few early cultures had shoes. In Mesopotamia, (c. 1600-1200 BC) a type of soft shoes were worn by the mountain people who lived on the border of Iran. The soft shoe was made of wraparound leather, similar to a moccasin. As late as 1850 most shoes were made on absolutely straight lasts, there being no difference between the right and the left shoe.

Track events are running on a track ie. 100m, 200m, 300m, 400m, 800m, 1500m and hurdles. For 100m you would run one quarter of the way around the track. Field events are events that don't take place on the track ie. long jump, javelin, shot-put, triple jump and high jump.
