Never write me off, warns king Bolt

BEIJING: Usain Bolt has warned that people write him off at their peril after the imperious Jamaican sealed another world treble gold despite an injury-hit season.
Bolt anchored Jamaica to victory in the 4x100m relay to add to his wins in both the 100m and 200m, trumping his much-touted and controversial American rival Justin Gatlin.
It was Bolt’s fifth treble gold showing in major championships, having performed the same feat at the 2008 and 2012 Olympics in Beijing and London, and world championships in 2009 and 2013 in Berlin and Moscow. His sole hiccup came in the 2011 worlds in Daegu when a false start in the 100m saw him return home with “only” the 200m title and a relay gold.
“This is even better, just to prove everyone wrong,” Bolt said of his treble in Beijing, where his dominance of world sprinting started when he came to prominence in the 2008 Olympics.
The towering 29-year-old has sat out six weeks of competitive action this season with pelvic joint pain, but he roared back despite a lack of outings on the circuit in the most impressive way.
“This season has been rough,” he admitted. “I’m just hoping that next season won’t be like this.
“I’m going to try my utmost best to really get on the right track early in the season and just hopefully can go on to Rio fully ready to run my best.
“I was here to do a job and was much more focused than I normally am because normally I’m in great shape with more races under my belt.”
