Usain Bolt, aims to defend his world record and planning to have a “three-peat” in the upcoming 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games. He also retained his titles 100m and 200m, as well as the 4x100m in 2012 London Olympic Games.
The 26-year old Jamaican said that he has decided to switch to either 400m or long jump.
“To do the three [sprints], that is the focus. I don’t want to try any different events at Rio,” he said.
“I will just defend my titles to show the world there’s a possibility I can do it again.”
Bolt became the first man to retain both Olympic sprint titles when he led home a Jamaica clean sweep in a time of 19.32 seconds in the 200m in London in August, with Yohan Blake in silver and Warren Weir in bronze.
