Usain Bolt with Jamaicain teammates win his third Olympic gold medal

Usain Bolt Wins Third Olympic Gold Medal: Are You Faster Than Him?

Jamaica’s fastest man alive, Usain Bolt won his third gold medal today. He ran the third leg of the men’s 400 meter relay. His teammate Asafa Powell, who’s record Usain broke in the 100 meter relay, closed the race. Needless to say, it was as easy as all of the other races.
With the win Usain Bolt became the fourth person in the history of the Olympics to win the 100, 200 and 400.

Usain Bolt wins 200 Meter relay

Last Saturday we all watched the way Usain Bolt won the 100 meter relay: sprinting half the length and jogging to the finish, all while pumping his chest and freezing for the “Bolt” << take a picture.
He repeated it in the 200 meter race. And here we have him once again, striking a pose. Never mind the braggadocio some people are grumbling about, he’s a young Jamaican dude with a mother who admits she likes to party: it’s in the blood. After today’s 400 relay Usain Bolt defended his on track antics..

Usain Bolt strikes the Bolt pose

“All I can say is, yo, Jamaican sprinters taking over the world.
To me, I’m a performer. I come out here to be a performer and let the people enjoy themselves. Sometimes, it’s good to enjoy yourself. This is my work, it’s my job. If you don’t enjoy your job, it doesn’t make any sense to actually do it because you won’t have any fun.”

Usain Bolt leaving em' in the dust

Think about this, if he runs a 100 meter race in 9 seconds, that means he’s covering 10 meters a second. In one tick..  over ten feet. His height has something to do with it. Those guys with little, stumpy legs have to put down in double the work just to keep up.

As we have seen, they don’t.

Because Usain makes it look so easy, I’m sure there are people at home talking like they could beat him in a race - and actually believe it. Maybe you’re one of them. Let’s put that to the test.

Usain Bolt has the right to do what ever he wants after he smashes everyone else. To the losers, get over it this dude is the real deal. If you don’t like his swagger them beat him in a race. Do ya’ thing Bolt.
