  • Intro:

    Usain Bolt arrived in New York City on Wednesday for a meet and greet with his fans at the Puma store in lower Manhattan.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English): Usain Bolt (on last season)

    "For me, my coach is happy, and that is the key thing. He sent me over to run a couple of races, and he was happy with how the season was going, so he said ok you can call it a season. So as long as the coach is happy, I am good. (on his foot) Oh yea. Perfect, I have no problem."

    SOUNDBITE (English): Usain Bolt (on preparing for the Olympics)

    "We take the World Championship first. I always try to take it a step at a time, going back to Beijing next year for the World Championships. Then I'll be gone, so for me, I am really focused on trying to get it done. So right now, I am just really happy with the way things are going. Trying to get a few workouts in the off season to keep going. Coach always says, have to keep active. That's my focus."

    SOUNDBITE (English): Usain Bolt (on what drives him for Olympics)

    "I really want to do this three times. I really want to prove to the world I can do this three times. I want to be the only athlete to ever have done it. So I am trying to make myself one of the greatest, not only in my sport, but among the greats in the world. So that is my focus."

    SOUNDBITE (English): Usain Bolt (on fighting complacency)

    "I think you have to make goals. I remember after the Olympics in London, I couldn't figure out what I was going to do. What was going to be my drive? So that season was kind of lazy. I've learned to make myself bigger goals, so I have to push myself and I am very competitive so I always want to get my goals. Definitely one of the things that keeps me going."
