All-time sprint king Usain Bolt won’t be running at all for a while.
He went down playing defense and was carried off on a stretcher. But he clapped all the way to reassure fans.
Bolt posted a photo of himself in a boot with crutches in the locker room after the match. “Ruptured Achilles but done know we a warrior,” he wrote.
Bolt hasn’t competed in an Olympics since 2016; another one is quickly approaching in Paris.
Like him, time went pretty fast, too. He remains the world record holder in both the 100 and 200. Those are pretty good laurels to sit on while he watches the Games this summer before turning 38 in late August.
