RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) -- Usain Bolt has a few goals left before he retires: He wants to break his own 200-metre world record, and do it by running under 19 seconds.
He set the record of 19.19 seconds in 2009, and also set the 100 record of 9.58 in the same year.
"That's one of my biggest goals," Bolt said Friday in Rio, which will host South America's first Olympics next year. "It's actually to run under 19 seconds. I think this season it will be hard to do, but the key thing is trying to stay injury free so I can go into the Olympic season in the best shape that I can be."
