I get out of breath walking up the stairs these days, admits Usain Bolt
He says his generation ‘just more talented’ than today’s
Legendary sprinter no longer runs and is ‘into Lego now’
Usain Bolt made his comeback to the world of track and field on Sunday night and, for a moment, it was like the good old days. There was his trademark To Da World pose before the 100m finals. The cheers and adulation of 60,000 fans in Tokyo’s National Stadium. A reminder of glories past.
The Jamaican had not watched athletics at all since retiring in 2017 until watching Melissa Jefferson-Wooden and Oblique Seville win gold. And, as he also admitted, he now spends his time streaming movies and building Lego, and even gets out of breath when he walks up stairs.
