Items related to Usain Bolt: Fast as Lightning
Usain Bolt is the fastest man on the planet-and one of the most popular athletes of all time. His dramatic world record-breaking feats in the 100 and 200 meters have earned him Olympic and world gold medals in the last several years. But what has endeared this young Jamaican above all else is his playful attitude and winning personality. Mike Rowbottom, a widely experienced writer on Summer and Winter Olympics, looks at the way Bolt's prodigious talent has been shaped from his earliest years by a competitive system in his native Jamaica, which has produced generations of world-class sprinters.
