Will anyone Ever catch Bolt?

There must come a time that the human body can not possibly run any faster.... when Bolt runs he actually makes everyone else look slow :o

He certainly holds peoples interest within sport.
Will he break the world record in the Final...... I think so, he's a showman and why not when you are so good.

Im due to go and watch him in the 200m on Thurs. although I will give my son first option as he is much more into sport than I am.
He was in about 6th place at around 40 metres,if he could start quick as the others its hard to imagine what time he could do.

Not only is he something special within his sport, he send a Great character too. :y

Alot of people slated these games before they started and yet I have enjoyed every second I have seen.

I was extremely apprehensive that we could organise a piss up in brewery tbh.
But it's been a fantastic event.

Bolt said in his interview he was worried about the start, having false started in a major event prior to the Olympics where you only get one chance or your out. So he sat in the blocks a little longer than he'd have liked.
But as his coach reminded him, he said, his race is not about the start, it's the last half where he really flys.
He could sit in the blocks until the rest have all gone and still win it seems. :)

The beauracrats who organised the ticketing,greedy corporations,greedy unions,egotistical politicians and that dick who organised the opening ceremony etc. made it a national embarrasment until the relatively normal (but hard working & talented) people who compete got there and turned the thing around into something that has generated a real feelgood factor for the country imo. :y

I was in Potters Field Park on the South Bank by Tower Bridge last night, where they were showing the athletics on a big screen.  There was a huge crowd, and the atmosphere was electric!!!  :y  When Jessica Ennis and Mo Farah won their events the place erupted!!  :y :y :y

Afterwards we repaired to a pub in the back streets which was jumping!!! and when they showed Jessica Ennis's medal presentation, everyone sung God Save the Queen!!  :) 

I don't think I've ever heard The National Anthem sung with such pride, passion and gusto!!  8) 8) 8)  and I reckon we must have rattled the windows abit!!!  :y :y :y :y :y :y :y :y :y :y

I watched him win the 200m race tonight.It doesnt seem possible a human can cover that distance in under 20 seconds even though youve just seen it.The bloke is phenomenal,and a born superstar. Charisma just oozes from him,even from over 50 yards away.
The Jamaicans in the stadium (along with everyone else),lifted the roof off the place when he came out on the track,and they went absolutely berserk when he crossed the line.
Was a great day out,but Im completely knackered. :)
