A 200 metre race is a sprint running event. Despite the fact that it is often a faster race than the 100 m, it is less popular than the 100 m, an often attracts runners from that event who wish to "double up" and claim both titles. This feat has been achieved eight times at the Olympic Games, the last by Carl Lewis in 1984. An Olympic double of 200 m and 400 m was first achieved by Valerie Brisco-Hooks in 1984, and later by Michael Johnson and Marie-José Pérec in 1996.
