Usain Bolt what an absolute legend. Last 100m race ever, unfortunately fell short to a 2x dirty drugs cheat but never mind - what a great champion and personality Bolt was. Such a loss to athletics.

True legend of an athlete, but also a top professional and seemingly a top guy too. Will be sadly missed in athletics.

It does strike as rather odd that when a 30 year old greatest sprinter of modern/all time is naturally slowing down because of age and wear and tear a 35 year old 2 time convicted drugs cheat seems to get faster.
