usain has a book actually has two out they're very very different books but the book we really want to talk about is an amazing book about his career and it's got the most phenomenal photographs i'm going to get out on a minute and you'll see why i haven't got it out right now when i do but the book is called bolt the opus um there were so many record-breaking moments documented in it when you break a world record because when you're running you must know obviously you're in the lead and you're doing well but do

to compete with him over 100 meters all i wanted to do was just to beat him and to prove that i was better than him so for me when i went out and i i beat him i ran all the way around the track yeah it was when i almost made it all the way back around and the announcer kind of announced that i brought the record that's what i knew wow so yeah wow and you did an extra whole extra lap just to rub it but you know it's interesting what we talked about earlier
with holly there about clearing your mind do you have to do that when you're there i know you're you're in the mind you you know i know you've trained and you're ready for it but is there something you try to think of or try not to think of so i when i get to the start line i tend to try to think about everything upset racing at the time i try to figure out if i'm gonna go out the night before i'm gonna have for dinner i tried to distract myself from the actual race because
the moment you start thinking too much about the race you start getting nervous you start thinking remember this remember that it confuses you you know i mean and that's how you make mistakes [Music] you
