Usain Bolt runs fastest 200 time this year
Staff Reporter | Posted July 14, 2008 6:31 PM
Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt ran the fastest 200 meters of any runner this year at a meet in Athens, Greece on Sunday. Bolt's time of 19.67 seconds was the fifth fastest time in history, according to the Associated Press.
Bolt previously set the 100 meter world record at a track meet in New York in May, defeating American Tyson Gay. He told a press conference in May that he is not sure if he will run in both the 100 and 200 at the Beijing Olympics in August.
American Michael Johnson still holds the 200 meter world record of 19.32 seconds. Gay ran the world's fastest 100 meters in June, but it was not considered a world record because it was wind-aided.
