Athletics: London calling sprint ace Bolt
DOUBLE Olympic sprint champion Usain Bolt wants to achieve legendary status by defending his titles at London 2012.
The Jamaican dismissed weekend reports he did not intend be in involved in three years time to try to retain the 100metres and 200m gold medals he won with such style in Beijing.
"It is always great to go and defend your title. I could never have said that," said the 22-year-old.
"That would be a great feat for me. I want to be a legend and if I am going to be a legend that would be a milestone for me."
The Jamaican notched up another milestone yesterday when he ran the fastest time over 150m in the Bupa Great CityGames sprint.
He set a new best time of 14.35 seconds – smashing the previous world's best by 0.40secs.
