When I returned to Bird’s Nest Stadium at night, the place was as quiet as paper.
Oh God, my body was exhausted at that time.
As I walked back to the Olympic Village, I immediately realized that everything had changed.
– What the heck?
– No, they’re waiting for you, Usain.
Yes, it’s true they were waiting for me.
Bolt made his first mark in history at the 2008 Olympics.
I anticipated that if I won the 100 meter Olympic gold medal, more people would recognize me.
When I got inside, I saw coach and massage therapist Eddie waiting for me, as well as other athletes.
I jumped up and looked into the lens: `That’s right, I’m now the Olympic champion, isn’t that fierce?`
It’s nice to stay in my house, away from the crazy crowd out there, away from the pressure of an Olympics.
That is something that is not easy to achieve in other teams.
The coach told me: `You will break the 100 meter record again, Bolt. I have found a way to help you improve your performance in the next runs.`
At that time I still thought he was joking.
`It’s fun,` I said.
Bolt’s life completely changed after the Olympics in Beijing.
After chatting for a while, I returned to my room.
We never talk about running, we only talk about girls, football and cricket.
– Hey Usain, what do you think about the 200 meter event?
I lay down, put my head on the pillow, and started thinking.
Johnson is absolutely right to comment like that.
– I don’t know anymore.
But Maurice thinks differently:
– Usain, it only takes you 9.69 seconds to run 100 meters.
– But another 200 meters.
I don’t really know.
While talking to Maurice, I heard footsteps on the stairs.
– Finished the 100 meter event.
Both Maurice and I knew what he was talking about.
