Usain Bolt 2012 Olympics Events Schedule for Last Week of Games
Usain Bolt at the 2012 Olympics will be featured in highly anticipated events in the Track & Field schedule. Check below for events and times for must-see Bolt races scheduled in the Olympics games.
One of the most awaited races on the London 2012 Track and Field schedule was the Men's 100-Meter Dash. Favorites in the this Olympic event included Jamaica's Bolt, Yohan Blake, and Asafa Powell. Other runners predicted to look out for were Tyson Gay and Justin Gatlin of the United States.
Usain Bolt qualified for the Men's 100M Dash semi-finals with a run of 10.09 seconds. The star Olympian finished the 100-Meter sprint final on Sunday with a time of 9.63 seconds to take gold in the most emphatic way, to trash anyone thought that he was no longer the fastest man on the planet.
The Jamaican powered his way away from the pack to retain his Olympic crown and set an new Olympic record time.
Blake came in 9.75 seconds in the race, taking silver. Gatlin of the US, finished in 9.79 seconds, securing the bronze medal.
Bolt becomes only the second man to ever retain the 100 meter sprint Olympic championship, with Carl Lewis being the only man to ever have done that before. There may be more history made by this man before the week is out at London 2012.
Check out when to catch Bolt in action again during the 2012 London Olympics.
