Usain Bolt was born 21 August 1986 in in Sherwood Content,Trelawny, Jamaica. Usain Bolt is a Jamaican sprinter and the fastest man in the world. He is regarded as the fastest person ever, the first man to hold both the 100 metres and 200 metres world records. Along with his teammates, he also set the world record in the 4×100 metres relay. He is the reigning Olympic champion in these three events, the first man to win six Olympic gold medals in sprinting, and an eight-time World champion. He was the first to achieve a “double double” by winning 100 m and 200 m titles at consecutive Olympics (2008 and 2012), and topped this through the first “double triple” (including 4×100 m relays). As a child, Usain attended Waldensia Primary, where he first began to show his sprinting potential, running in the annual national primary-schools’ meeting for his parish. At the age of twelve, Usain Bolt had become the school’s fastest runner over the 100 metres distance. On his entry to William Knibb Memorial High School, Usain Bolt continued to focus on other sports, but his cricket coach noticed his speed on the pitch and urged him to try track and field events. Pablo McNeil, a former Olympic sprint athlete and Dwayne Jarrett coached Usain Bolt by encouraging him to focus his energy on improving his athletic abilities. Usain Bolt won his first annual high school championships medal in 2001, taking the silver medal in the 200 metres with a time of 22.04 seconds. Pablo McNeil soon became his main coach. Usain Bolt has received the OJ in Jamaica for giving his country international recognition in his performance in Track and Field. The OJ is the Order of Jamaica is the fifth of the six ranks in the Jamaican honours system.
