		Five of the eight 100m hurdles world championship medals won by Team USA athletes are due to the brilliance of two-time Olympic 100m gold medalist, Gail Devers, who won her first of two world championship silver medals in Tokyo in 1991.
		Six months prior to the championships, Devers was bed-ridden and facing the possibility of having both feet amputated after being stricken with Graves Disease, a condition that caused her to miss competing in 1989 and 1990.
		At the 1991 World Championships, Devers, who was mired in third place in the final in Tokyo, put on a furious charge in the final stages of the race to surpass Russia's Natalya Grigoryeva to capture one of the unlikeliest silver medals in track and field history.

		The World Indoor Championships in Athletics (WICA) was the most significant athletics event to be staged in the UK since the 1948 Olympic Games, and was a huge triumph for the City of Birmingham and The NEC Group which hosted the event.
		The mission statement was “To deliver an outstanding sporting spectacle of world significance, which inspires athletics excellence, celebrates cultural diversity and enhances Birmingham’s reputation as a leading international city.” The main organisers and stakeholders were Birmingham City Council, UK Sport and UK Athletics, whilst the event remained under the jurisdiction of the IAAF.
		The IAAF were particularly impressed with the idea of the VIP Event Guide and asked to use the front cover design for their own publication.

		The Athletics World Championship is a biennial track and field competition of the International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF).
		I think if Rio, Johannesburg or Sydney were to bid they would be strong bids as the championships have not been held in the southern hemisphere so the IAAF would be keen for a new frontier just like Edmonton 2001 was the first time the event was held in North America.
		A World Championship in the United States would be great and do wonders for the sport here, but as someone said earlier, there are no stadia capable of hosting and no one willing to build one for something not an Olympic Games.

	IAAF World Indoor Championships in Athletics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The International Association of Athletics Federations World Indoor Championships were inaugurated as the World Indoor Games in 1985 in Paris, France and were subsequently renamed in 1987 as they are known today.
		The 200 m was absent from the 2006 championships in Moscow, as in recent years it has become too predictable.
		In their short history the championships have seen Mozambique's Maria Mutola claim an incredible 6 gold medals in the women's 800 m from 1993 to 2004, her only defeat coming at the hands of Ludmila Formanová of the Czech Republic in 1999 in a championship record of 1 minute 56.9 seconds that still stands.
