On May 17, 2009 Usain Bolt set a record for the 150 meter dash in Manchester, England. The previous record timeing was 14.99 seconds but when Bolt steps in nothing will get in the way so the current record is 14.35 seconds. Usain Bolt also holds the record for the most medals won in the olympics for running which is three gold medals. He holds the record for the 50 meter dash, and the 100 meter dash. We shall continue to follow his career.

Dear zz,
Is it too late to tell your mom that you don't want to go. I'm sure she'd understand. If it's too late don't worry you'll be learning a lot this summer. I've taken dance classes and I had so mush fun . Don't worry anyone can make friends.
