Manteo was running the lead-off leg for the U.S. in the 4x400 relay.  He felt and heard the pop right about halfway through his run, but rather than stop and end the US' medal chances he limped out the rest of the lap (and still managed a pretty good time).  The U.S. easily qualified for the finals.
