The Summer Olympics are just around the corner and, for the first time since 2000, Jamaican sprinting superstar Usain Bolt won't be on the track.
It's a strange feeling, he admitted.
"I do miss competing," Bolt told USA TODAY Sports, "but the training keeps me away. The fact that I know the work that you have to put in to be at peak shape."
Bolt retired from Olympic competition following the 2016 Games in Rio de Janeiro, capping one of the most dominant stretches for a sprinter in the history of track and field. From 2008 to 2016, he won 11 world titles and eight Olympic gold medals, and swept the 100-meter and 200-meter sprints in three consecutive Games.
