Kingston: Usain Bolt was found aggravated due to series of
delays and several false start of his own race at the Jamaica’s National
Championships. Bolt won the quarter final and qualified to the semifinals of
the 100m in 10.15 seconds.
‘Although sluggish from the blocks,’ bolt was separated
from the field after 40 metres before ‘cruising across the line with the
quarter-finals’ joint second fastest time,’ reports said. The 11-times world
champion was said to be upset due to several false start and the amount of time
he had to wait before the race started.
“It’s just the whole system which bothers me, you know I
was out there too long. They (organisers) just sent everybody out and a whole
lot of false starts and I was in the last heat and I kind of got cold so I
didn’t feel as fluent as I wanted to and that’s what I was really annoyed
about. If I can get through that then I’ll be fine,” Bolt said in the press
meet he attended after the race.
In another development, the world’s fastest man was asked
by the Jamaican police to stop his charitable works following sporadic violences.
Bolt, who is well known in his home country for offering funds to the needy,
was said by the police, are increasing violence due to the helps. Reports are that Bolt is aware of the
disturbances and said that he will stop charitable works because it had caused
trouble.
“The problem is always with the adults and not the kids, so
I now mostly help the young ones. If you’re going to school and need help
paying off your student loan or need books or something, I will try to help you,”
Bolt added.
