He should have to run with a weighted backpack, give the other guys a chance.

He's had an amazing career! I wonder how long his records will last?

Just blew past his competitors. And they are the rest of the fastest men in the world.

(53,837 posts)6. I knew he would win, but 19.78 is not even close to his record of 19.19.
I thought with DeGrasse in the race it would be a fast time.
Oh well, Bolt has given us quite a lot during his reign as "The Fastest Man in the World".
I wish the best to him.
