Bolt targeting sub-19 seconds 200m
Usain Bolt is looking to add to an already-decorated career by breaking new ground in the 200 metres at next year's Olympic Games.
Six-time Olympic gold medallist Usain Bolt is targeting another piece of history as he looks forward to next year's Olympic Games.
The Jamaican sprinter has taken the athletics world by storm in recent years and is the double reigning Olympic champion in the 100 metres, 200m and 4x100m relay.
Bolt also holds the world records over both sprint distances and is hoping to break further ground in the 200m in Rio de Janeiro next year.
His 19.19 seconds in Berlin in 2009 usurped the 19.32 set by Michael Johnson at the Atlanta Games in 1996, but Bolt believes he can dip under 19 seconds.
"I want to break the 200m world record, that's one of my biggest goals. I want to run under 19 seconds," he said.
"I think this season it would be hard to do but the key thing is to try and stay injury free this season so I can go into the Olympic season in the best shape I can be so it will be easier to attempt to break the records.
"I worry about nobody. I know when I'm at my best it's almost impossible to beat me so I have to give it my best and I'll be okay."
