Usain Bolt
Usain St. Leo Bolt, OJ, CD, is a Jamaican sprinter. Regarded as the fastest person ever timed, he is the first man to hold both the 100 metres and 200 metres world records since fully automatic time measurements became mandatory in 1977. Along with his teammates, he also set the world record in the 4×100 metres relay. He is the reigning Olympic champion in these three events, and the first man at the modern Olympic Games to win six gold...

If you're the Olympic champion then they have to wait four more years to get you again.
Once a year I will clean my room, just because I feel I should.
I've worked hard over the years, I've been injured and I've worked hard through it, and I've made it.
I've learned over the years that if you start thinking about the race, it stresses you out a little bit. I just try to relax and think about video games, what I'm gonna do after the race, what I'm gonna do just to chill. Stuff like that to relax a little before the race.
I really don't have a favorite meal. I eat anything.
For me he (Tendulkar) is one of the greatest cricketers
Track and field was very big when I was growing up.
Sleep is extremely important to me - I need to rest and recover in order for the training I do to be absorbed by my body
It was not perfect but I'm very happy. It could have been better, but I'm now looking forward to my second race of the season.
I have to move on now as there is no point to dwell on the past. I have a few days to refocus and get ready for the 200 meters on Friday. After this I have the 4×100-meter and a few other races before the end of the season.
My coach told me if I broke the national record for the 200, I could run a 100.
There are things that bother me. I try not to let them, but they do.
People always say I'm a legend, but I'm not. Not until I've defended my Olympic titles. That's when I've decided I'll be a legend.
My relationship with everyone in Jamaica is good.
