	Climatic conditions are a crucial factor for good performances in the 100 m. Air resistance is the primary climatic factor in sprint performances. A strong head wind is very detrimental to performance, while a tail wind can improve performances significantly. For this reason, a maximum tail wind of 2.0m/s is allowed for a 100m performance to be considered eligible for records, or "wind legal". Furthermore, sprint athletes perform better at high altitudes because of the thinner air, which provides less air resistance. While there are no limitations on altitude, performances made at altitudes greater than 1000 m above sea level are marked with an "A".<ref name=IAAF>[http://www.iaaf.org/theSport/whatisathletics/TrackandField/disc=100/index,newsId=4666.html 100 metres] IAAF</ref>		Climatic conditions are a crucial factor for good performances in the 100 m.

−	For example, on [[13 April]] [[1996]], Obadele Thompson of Barbados [http://www.iaaf.org/athletes/athlete=9873/BioPopUp.html ran the fastest 100m race ever] in El Paso, Texas. He was clocked at 9.69s. However, it was achieved with a tail wind in excess of 5m/s, well over the IAAF legal limit of 2.0m/s, and the mark was not officially recognized.

 Major 100m races, such as at the Olympic Games, attract much attention, particularly when the world record is thought to be within reach.
-The men's world record has been improved upon eleven times since the introduction of electronic timing in [[1968]], never being surpassed by more than 0.05s at a time. The current men's world record of 9.58s is held by Usain Bolt of Jamaica, set in Berlin on [[16 August]] [[2009]]. The current women's world record of 10.49s belongs to Florence Griffith-Joyner, set in Indianapolis, Indiana, on [[16 July]] [[1988]].

 Due to the progression of record times compared to longer distances, the downward march of the 100m record has been criticized as more a measure of technological advances than athletic greatness.<ref>[http://www.slate.com/id/2174851 McClelland, Ted World's Fastest Sham
