Usain Bolt has kept the world oohing and ahhing for a decade. No one is surprised that Usain Bolt wanted to go out on top, but no one thought it would come so soon. The good thing is that Usain Bolt wants to remain involved in the sport, and perhaps he can shake up some of the ancient ways we approach our sport.

This is a fun video, but it does not give Usain Bolt the praise and adulation that he deserves. We will try that later in the season. But, it is a fun video to watch as Usain gets ready for the 100 meters in Monaco on July 21, 2017.
