Released in 2012, this video walks us through Usain Bolt’s strengths, weaknesses and thought processes as he runs a 100m race. From the video, we see how deeply the runner knows himself, and the faith he places in the process. We also learn that he is one of the slower runners off the blocks.
Usain, as a slow starter, has left us with this lesson. Finishing strong makes up for shaky starts.
