Jamaican Usain Bolt will decide after next year’s Rio Olympics whether to retire or continue until the London 2017 world championships.
The Jamaican star stated after his 10th career world title in Beijing, in the 200m, that he is `50-50’ on whether he will compete in London, where he won a second Olympic treble in 2012.
“I really want to run at London but I think the sport is not as fun as it used to be. It’s more taxing. I can’t enjoy it as much as I want to because I have to be sacrificing a lot more. So, it’s 50-50.’’
He added at the post-200m news conference: “It’s all about how I feel after Rio and if I feel I can really put my body through one more season, I will do that. If I’m going to be focused and I’m going to be determined, that will determine if I compete after Rio.’’
Bolt has been on the circuit for a decade and will turn 31 in August, 2017. His multi-million dollar contract with sports goods makers, Puma, reportedly runs until that year.
