They can't afford all that, whitewave. Have you seen the price of the tickets?

They had to pay full price for the kids for one of the sessions, as there were no family tickets left. £50 each. It was probably worth it for Mo.
I hope my grandson coped with the noise!
We're hoping it makes him realise what you have to do when running his own 10ks.

dj and mine!!! He has tickets for the whole weekend and next weekend as well I think.

He is reliving the Olympics I think.

I wouldn't be surprised if they settled in America, i don't think he had the same respect as British born athletes

Do you think Mo will return to the UK once he has stopped racing?
He will not need to train as much.

One of my sons and his family were there. What a fantastic spectacle to watch.

Well done Mo, you are great.

Yes whitewave, I am a strong supporter of Bolt, he deserves a knighthood Gary Sobers was given one .

whitewave Fri 04-Aug-17 19:04:14

grin I'm sure he'll get something. Everyone else has!!

I think a Knighthood would be appropriate.

Sir Usain.

Go Mo,

Opening ceremony.

Gives me the shivers as it reminds me of the wonderful olympics.

Missed by some.

Anniebach Fri 04-Aug-17 12:00:45

He will have to speed up ?

Liam Malone, one of our para-athletes with no legs, reckons he will beat Usain Bolt's record with in the next 3 years :-)
