With Syrian swimmers Yusra Mardini and Rami Anis already training at the Olympic Aquatics Stadium, the refugee team awaits only the arrival of Ethiopian Yonas Kinde, a marathon runner (the last event at Rio 2016), who lives in Luxemburg and will arrive in Rio on the morning of 1 August. In 2008 Beijing Olympic, the Jamaican sprinter broke the Olympic record as well as world record when he clocked 9.63 seconds.
“People always say to me, ‘Usain when you leave the sport, the sport is going to go down”.
‘Especially at the start of past year I noticed that injuries take a little bit more time to get back to where you want to be, ‘ added the fastest man in the world. “It is what I want as well so I’ll work hard to maintain my focus to clinch the gold medal”, he said. “(The men) have really unperformed this season, but I’m sure when we get to the Olympics it won’t be like that”. “So this is why he tells me to stop talking about retirement and just take it a year at a time”.
Bolt has been at the centre of a push by Gulden to put more emphasis on sport performance gear rather than fashion, also bolstered by its sponsorship of English soccer side Arsenal.
