Bolt not bothered after failing to break 10-second barrier

World’s fastest man Usain Bolt claims he is not bothered after failing to break the 10 second barrier on season debut at the Cayman Invitational on Saturday.Bolt clocked 10.05 to take the event ahead of Jason Rogers of St Kitts and Nevis (10.12) and teammate Kemar Bailey-Cole.
With compatriot Yohan Blake and American sprinter Justin Gatlin having already broken the 10 second barrier the double world record holder was looking to do the same. He, however, admitted to being somewhat race rusty.
“It’s just more races. My coach will determine what I need to work on, but right now it’s just more races” Bolt said following the event.
“It wasn’t the best, but as long as I come out injury free, that’s the key thing,” he added
“The more races I run, the better I will feel so I am just looking forward to running more races and see what happens.
“I am never worried. I’ve been in worse situations. It’s just race rusty. I can tell. I could feel the difference from when you are flying from when you are not.”
Bolt will be in pursuit of history at this summer’s Olympic Games in Rio as he seeks to be the first man to claim three consecutive sprint doubles.(Sportsmax.com)
