Returning Bolt shatters 150m world record

World record holder and Olympic champion Usain Bolt added yet another title to his tally after racing to victory in the Bupa Great CityGames 150 meter sprint in a new best time in Manchester on Sunday. The Jamaican, who broke both the 100m and 200m records before anchoring his country to the 4x100m relay title in Beijing, clocked 14.36 seconds — smashing the previous world’s best by 0.39 seconds. Bolt, in his first competitive outing of the season, finished well ahead of Britain’s Marlon Devonish, who ran 15.07.
