Bolt ‘not ready’ to race yet after foot injury

Six-time Olympic champion sprinter Usain Bolt has delayed his return to competition after falling behind in training because of a foot injury.
The world record holder has withdrawn from this month’s Ostrava Golden Spike and Paris Diamond League meetings.
Bolt, 27, said he was “100 percent healthy” and back in full training after missing sessions in late March and early April.
But added: “Unfortunately due to the training that I missed I’m behind where I normally am at this time of year.”

The 100m in the Czech Republic town of Ostrava on June 17 would have been the Jamaican’s first race of the year. He had also received top billing for the 100m in Paris on July 5.

“I hope to be back in competition soon, but how soon will depend on my training in the next few weeks,” said the double world and Olympic champion.

“It is important for me to take my time this year as I have three tough years ahead in 2015, 2016 and 2017 as I attempt to defend my world and Olympic titles. — BBC Sport
