Usain St. Leo Bolt aka Lightning Bolt is a jamaican sprinter that holds the record for being the fastest person in the world. He also is the first man ever to hold both the 100 metre sprint and 200 metre sprint world record. Usain Bolt is 26 and was born on the 21st August 1986, he was born in Trelawny, Jamaica. Did you know that he has NEVER won a bronze medal at any of his races, only Golds and Silvers.
Usain Bolt lives in Kingston, Jamaica but was born and raised in Trelawny, Jamaica. Trelawny was named after a man named William Trelawny, he was a member of the Parliament who eventually became The governor of Jamaica. He then died 1772 December that's when it was named Trelawny.
Bolt competes in Track and Field, it is held right in the middle of the stadium. It has a whole bunch of running, throwing, and jumping sports like, Sprint, Middle Distance, Long Distance, Hurdles, Relays, Shot-Put, Long Jump and more. There are even mixed events that are called Pentathlon, Heptathlon, and decathlon. But they have to race their own gender.
He is my favorite athlete because he is so successful in his career and never gives up. He always tries his best in everything he does. He is a true inspirational hero to lots of people all over the world, including me. Good luck usain bolt in all of your races.
