Jamaican Usain 'Lightning' Bolt is arguably the most celebrated
sportsman in the world. From the relative obscurity of being a
world-class 200 metres runner and winner of the Athletics World
Championship silver medal in 2007, Bolt has elevated himself to
iconic stature with his incredible world record runs in the 100
metres and his unbelievable performances at the 2008 Beijing
Olympics. He is already being touted as the 'saviour' of track and
field athletics and has been a fantastic ambassador for Jamaica,
the Caribbean and the entire global African diaspora. This 22
year-old promises astonishing feats to come and his performances
indicate that he is more than ready to fulfil those promises.
Already a track phenomenon at the precocious age of twelve, this
uncomplicated country boy leads the new generation of Caribbean
stars who chose to stay at home, and train, study and work in
familiar climes. His story is an inspiration to all and his instant
celebrity shows the power of the media and the importance of the
Olympic Games even in today's crowded sports calendar.
