NEW DELHI: Usain Bolt, who is recognized as the fastest sprinter in the world, revealed the reasons behind his running. Bolt, who retired from the game, has scored a number of records and medals. During the World Championships in Berlin in 2009, he finished the race in 9.58 seconds and won the gold medal with a world record. Bolt, an 8-time Olympic gold medallist and 11-time world champion, said he raced to win a medal in his career and not to make a record. "The time passes quickly."

"It doesn't seem like it (the gold medal in Berlin) has passed 10 years. For me, the Olympic Games will be like gold medal highlights," Bolt said. "I ran for a medal so many years. Taking a good time with the medal is really the best." Bolt, who is going to be 33 years old on August 21 this month, announced his retirement two years ago. He added, "I remember the blue Regupole track at the Berlin Stadium, which has a great history."

"In 2008, I won three Olympic gold medals for the first time and then trained well. I used to win every championship, but at the same time knew that if I did well, I would win and improve the record. Obviously, I miss the energy of running and running in a packed stadium, but I am happy with my decision to retire and I have no problem with that," Bolt said. Since my retirement, I have been able to relocate my energy and have been very busy. Bolt has made several extraordinary records that are difficult to break.
