The Jamaican legend, Usain Bolt, recently appeared in the “Ready Set Go” podcast with five-time Olympic medalist Justin Gatlin and former Bahamian sprinter Rodney Green. He expressed his thoughts on the current conditions of the sport and the changes that are currently shaping the track. He shared:

“I think they're trying though. I watch a competition; it's better, I must say. I think the competition, like the women level, are not dropped. They have really surpassed men when it comes to competing. I watch and the level that they at and everybody's running World Records. They're running faster time,” Bolt mentioned [3:36 onwards]

He continued,

“So for me it's okay, I think it could be better. Michael Johnson is doing this new thing I hope works. It's better for the athletes, more money, that's always good because track and field is way down on the total when it comes to making money. So I think if this works, could be a big deal.”

Bolt reflected that the competitive standard of women racing has significantly improved compared to men. He shed positive light on Michael Johnson’s Grand Slam Track, the upcoming league, and how it could favorably change the present and future of track athletes. He also mentioned his views on the generational changes taking place in the sport.
