Olympics Johnson aims to break 400-meter world record
The Associated Press
SYDNEY, Australia — Michael Johnson plans to end his magnificent Olympic career with a pair of medals to match his new running shoes gold.
Still, there are a couple of milestones on his agenda. He wants to be the first man to repeat as Olympic 400-meter champion, and most of all he wants to break that 43-second mark.
And maybe break the 43-second barrier in the 400 meters while he at it.
"This time around I'm not coming in as the focus of the games trying to make history and do something that's never been done before," Johnson said.

rier in the 400 meters while he sat at. Far more relaxed than he was in his successful quest for an unprecedented double gold in the 200 and 400 four years ago in Atlanta, Johnson is relieved that only the 400 and 1,600-meter relay are on his agenda this time.
More information
"I'm very proud of it, but I just feel that I can do much better than that," he said. "I would like to have my 400-meter world record in my mind equal to what my 200-meter record means. It would be something so far out there it's hard to understand."
That 19.32-second performance in winning the 200 gold in Atlanta stunned a packed stadium and the track and field world. It also made him the first to win the 200 and 400 at the Olympics.
Johnson intended to try to double again this year, but pulled up with a hamstring injury in his much-hyped showdown with Maurice Greene in

Johnson said he believes he can break the record if the weather cooperated. He doesn't want 43.18 to be his 400-meter legacy.
the 200 finals at the U.S. trials, Greene also pulled up lame, and neither will be in the 200 in Sydney.
Johnson brushed aside suggestions that he is such an overwhelming favorite that everyone else will be running for silver.
Now, it's obvious he didn't really want the pressure of another Olympic 200-400 double.
"I would never say that an injury is a blessing in disguise," he said, "but I do believe everything happens for a reason."
"I heard Alvin Harrison say the other day that he's running for a gold medal and he came down here and ran 44.18." Johnson said about Harrison's Sept. 8 performance in Brisbane. "Nobody's going to train that hard to come down here and give me anything. I've got to go out there and earn it."
The injury has healed, and Johnson said he's run better in recent training than he did in the days leading up to his world-record run a year ago.
