Usain Thunderbolt Bolt

Did you happen to watch the Olympics last night? 100m finals offered two fantastic runners. Sherone Simpson and Kerron Stewart actually tied with a time of 10.98s and so both will receive a silver medal. With the electronic timers we have today, it is easier to calculate down to the ninth degree. The rules state that when a tie occurs, the next medal will not be given. Jamaica can be proud. Speaking of Jamaica, did you see the long legs on Usain “ThunderBOLT” Bolt? He made the men’s 100m finals look like a walk in the park. He was looking around and moving his arms like he was out for a stroll. He set a world record of 9.69s!!

    Greetings,

    This man is really amazing, actually all the Jamaican runners are all amazing. They’ve had a great speed talent… that’s why they dominated for this game.

    I envy people who is really fast. when i was in grade school i try track and field but i failed. i’m not that fast as them but the good thing is i can use my speed in playing basketball. if i win in the Olympics for sure i myself is proud of my achievements. It feels good that you know your the fastest man or woman in the whole world.

    i agree with you on bolt. it truly was spectacular to watch him run… he made it look amazingly easy, and he managed to be quite ahead of the pack, even after his slow start. quite thrilling. :)

  6. I would of liked to have seen how fast he could of ran if he ran full speed instead of pulling up at the end of the race. He makes running that fast look effortless.

    I finally managed to find a video of Bolt since they keep getting taken down from Youtube, and I was on vacation when the Olympics were on. Pretty amazing to say the least. I found the 200 even more impressive since it shows his speed and domination better. Jamaica keeps churning out amazing runners.

  9. I read an article the other day with Physicist calulating that if Bolt had not slowed down to wave his arms about he could have run 9.52. Still awesome, I still remember a sub 10 run being something special back in the 80s.

    Very interesting. I wonder if he is upset with himself for slowing down.
