Can he do it? – Usain Bolt looking to run the 200m in under 19 seconds in 2014
“To reach that landmark pace, I would need to have the perfect season, like the one I had in ’08. I think next year could be my shot at it, though the window of opportunity is getting smaller with every campaign,” he said.
“The older I get, the narrower that window becomes; the harder it is for me to reach peak fitness in time for a major race”.
However, he said that given what he has done in the past, he is not ruling out rounding off his track career with another world record, noting that he is the only obstacle to his progress.
“I don’t think it’s totally out of reach in the next season or so. Seriously, who would be surprised if I did it? Who’s going to stop me from going faster?,” Bolt asked.
“The only man who can bring an end to my status as a star of track and field in the next couple of years is me, and I’m a phenomenon, a serious competitor – a legend for my generation. Believe me, my time isn’t up just yet”. -(CMC)
