Cruz mostly African ancestry?
Well, heck - if you go back far enough, we're ALL of mostly African
ancestry, right?
but the statement that 92 of the top 100 times are held by
those of mostly
African ancestry is still wrong... it can only be 82... it's
just poor
data
So this looks like only 7 non-Africans have produced times in the top 100
all time, right?
I'd put Juantorena on the list though (maybe that was his 8th).

for what it's worth my view here is that the discussion is about
probabilities...

It's hard to categorize anyone from the West Indies or Central America
unless you know their specific origin. But assuming Juantorena is
Cruz mostly African ancestry?
