<A Bolt from the blue?
Usain Bolt is going to get the shock of his life when he is beaten in both his main events, the 100m and the 200m, at the London Olympics by his young Jamaican stablemate, Yohan Blake.
That is the view of the medal-winning former British sprinter Jamie Baulch, who follows both men closely.
He told me last week: 'Usain is terrified. You can see the fear in his body language and his eyes, and as someone who's been there, done that, I can tell you Blake's surge in performance will affect Bolt. It already has.
'The young guy is oozing confidence and Bolt is nervous. And tight isn't good.
'Blake to beat Bolt twice in London. You heard it here first.'>

Blake sprints adidas spike into limelight

Sports brand adidas has lauded Jamaican athlete Yohan Blake for sprinting its new shoe into the athletics spotlight last year, wearing the 'lightest' spike ever created, according to its just released annual report.
It indicates the importance that global brands place on key Jamaican athletes.
Adidas juxtaposed its successful launch of a new spike with Blake's win at the World Championships in Daegu, South Korea in August last year.
It is crucial as three-quarters of adidas's €13.3 billion in sales last year (74 per cent in 2010) was earned from 48 new product launches in 2011.
"The adizero prime, the lightest commercial sprint spike ever created, was worn by Yohan Blake and helped him become the World 100-metre champion at the 2011 IAAF World Championships," stated the annual report released in March.
The annual report classified Blake's win at the World Championships as a highlight of adidas's financial year. It carried a photograph of Blake on the cover and another on one of the inside pages of the 242-page report. It was the first time that an adidas annual report has mentioned Blake, despite sponsoring him since 2009.
adidas views its sponsored athletes as assets who provide products certitude while exposing the brand.
"The utilisation of promotion partners such as federations, teams, leagues, events and individuals is an important part of endorsing brand positioning, and an area to which the group dedicates significant resources," the report said.
Extension of brands
It explained that "this not only serves as a vehicle to showcase the credentials of adidas and Reebok (its related brand) products in the performance arena, but also to facilitate the extension of the adidas and Reebok brands in the sports-inspired lifestyle market."
Adidas sales in 2011 increased 13 per
cent year on year to €13.3 billion and its net income to shareholders jumped 18 per cent to €671 million.
Blake's sponsorship portfolio, which increased following his win at the World Championships, includes local sponsors Wisynco and Key Motors, the dealer of Hyundai cars.
Blake belongs to the Racers Track Club which includes 100-metre and 200-metre world-record holder Usain Bolt, who is sponsored by Germany-based Puma. adidas and Puma, formerly a single company run by Dassler brothers, suffered a bitter split in World War 2. It led to the birth of both brands now among the world's largest.

Bolt terrified???
...have seen it at lower level the runner with great upside terrified. It was 1961, Champs, Sabina Park, 440 yards final!

Straight towards finish - Dwight Anderson (KC) and Dennis Anderson (Happy Grove...later...a year after he joined C'bar) running 1-2...take note that straight was approximately 50 yards...Cosmond Vaughn (Mannings) hit that straight last and in those 50 yards he runs 'terrified' and bursts through to win in the then great time of 50.1 seconds (Record breaker and Champion).

I can just imagine Usian Bolt doing same in the 100 meters. I would...as a betting man on T&F events...say there is no way a fit and healthy Blake can defeat a fit and healthy Bolt at 100 meters!

...now the 200M (Yup the 200M) if Bolt leads (both men fit and healthy)...it is hardly likely...but certainly possible that Blake reels him in!!!
18.9 - 19.3??? Yup!..smoothest in the final 50 meters, wins!!!

[Muadib]

yeah.. it sure worked for out for him in the World Championships.... transferring that terror into a blazing start..

lol ! woiee !
