The fantastic showman of track and field does it again.
He didn't just break the world record in the 100m and 200m, he obliterated them. Many coaches and runners will be going back to the drawing board (even scientists) to figure out how they can beat Usain or at least give him some competition.
He is the Tiger Woods of Track and field. Usain Bolt his run his way to the top of the elite athletes to achieve what many thought was not possible. Speculation now centers around the possibilities of Usain running in the 400m to see how far he can push his body and if he has the endurance for the race. What point does he stand to prove by running the 400m? I personally think he should push on with his specialty races, the 100m and the 200m, until he reaches a point where he says to himself "I can go no faster."
100m
world record of 9.58
200m
World record 19.19
4x100
World record of 37.10 (Beijing) a record many were looking forward to be being broken in Berlin. The exchange between Powell and Bolt was a little sloppy and they lost some time on it as Bolt was nearly touching Powell by the time the Baton changed hands.
