Usain Bolt - 100m in 9.58 Seconds


Usain Bolt - of Jamaica - created a World Record yesterday by running the 100m dash in the Berlin World Championship in 9.58 seconds.

With this, he became the first man on earth to run sub 9.6 seconds. This is no extraordinary feat considering that a decade back the World Rcord was the 9.85 seconds mark!!

Needless to say, he had great competiton in the final from Tyson Gay and Asafa Powell - and great competitors propel athletes to great heights.
