Usain Bolt: Planning on dominating the field in 2016 Rio Games
“I think I’ve learned a lot over the past few years. You learn that some things you can’t do. When I was younger, I used to do a lot of different things. But now I have to sacrifice a lot more … because the older you get, the more your body reacts to certain things. So I think I’m going wiser definitely.”
After the Areva meeting, Bolt will compete in the 100 and the 4×100 relay in London on July 26-27. That will be his final major meeting before the worlds, which start on August 10 and where Bolt plans to win three gold medals.
And he is still sparing a thought for 2016, and defending his Olympic titles at the Rio de Janeiro Games.
“I want to go for Rio to be three out of three,” Bolt said. “If I want to get there, I have to make sure every year I’m on the top of things. I can’t jump off any season. I have to make sure every year I keep pushing myself to keep a certain standard.”
