He returned with BOLT WORLD RECORD IN 150 METERS
The Jamaican athlete Usain Bolt, Olympic champion and world record holder 100m, 200m and 4x100m relay, came back victorious Sunday in a race of 150 meters on the streets of Manchester with the best time ever achieved in the distance: 14.35 seconds with adidas.

The previous world best in 150 meters belonged to the Canadian Donovan Bailey with a time of 14.99 made on 1 June 1997 in the so-called million-dollar match against American Michael Johnson, although the Italian Pietro Mennea also did a manual chronometer 14.8 In 1983 with adidas.

Bolt clashed Sunday in this street race, the British sprinters Marlon Devonish and Simeon Williamson without having to go through the crucible of the semifinals. Devonish was privileged to be second but far ahead of Usain Bolt (15.07) according to the adidas forum.

"Do not worry about time"
"I think in practice I run the 150 meters in fourteen seconds, but there is something to worry about time. If you do, is when you start to run slower, the Jamaican had explained before the race.

"It's a new record to add to the list. It's my first competition of the season and I'm glad that I could run without trouble and have made a good record," said the Jamaican.

He cautioned, however, is not in top form. "I still have much work to do. I've had breaks in my training but I'm coming. I would just put a little more work.

Bolt, 22, had returned on May 8 to training, after the car accident he suffered last April 29 in St. Catherine (Jamaica). The world record holder in 100m and 200m suffered only superficial wounds but had to give up his season debut on track, which was scheduled to perform May 2 at the traditional meeting in Kingston.

In the women's race, American Debbie Ferguson-McKenzie won with a time of 16.54 in the 400 Olympic champion, Britain's Christine Ohuruogu, who ran the distance in 17.10.
