Usain Bolts New Record

Last night Jamaica's Usain Bolt smashed his old Olympic world record by winning his race in 9.63 seconds. He got to the line before his fellow Jamaican opponent Yohan Blake and just behind them was Justin Gatlin from the United States America. After the race Usain was really proud and knew that he was the one to bet. Meaning his country is now 25th on the medal table.

During the start of the race, I didn’t really know what was going to happen with any of the racers. But once we got the end Usain showed courage and let his feet pound the ground with a win. I am sure his butterflys have flu away and he has replaced them by being proud and I am also sure his country is proud of him and hope he will still be the star to bet.


Here is a link to a really cool website about his race!

    I like this part here:

    It is a well formed sentence. My favourite part about the sentence is that the Butterflies have flown away.
