ATHLETICS Ferdinand Omanyala: Dream of breaking Usain Bolt's world record is in sight
Earlier this season, he went for an indoor tour in France where he won three out of the four races he was participating in.
He, however, noted that breaking the 100m world record will be harder because the race is a bit more technical. The 200m world record currently stands at 19.19 while the 100m world record is 9.58.
“I’m not worried about any of them…I really don’t know. I think the 100m is going to be harder because it’s quicker and if you make a mistake during the race you’re not going to break it. It’s also a bit more technical,” Bolt said.
The multiple world champion retired in 2017 having won 11 world titles in the 100m, 200m, and the 4x100m relay races.
He had also won eight Olympic titles over the 100m, 200m, and the 4x100m relay. He revealed that his main goal as an athlete was always to leave a legacy behind.
