SUNDAY 26 APRIL 2009 – BOSTON, USA: The world’s fastest man Usain Bolt will be in Boston today for the first stop of the PUMA Street Meet World Tour.
Over the course of the next year, against the backdrop of the PUMA Street Meet, Usain Bolt will be travelling the globe looking for the next World’s Fastest – someone to fill his golden shoes and redefine the boundaries of human speed. Some of the fastest athletes in the world never step on a track because they choose another sport instead – and with the help of Bolt, PUMA wants to discover them first.
To kick things off, Bolt will bring his Jamaican friends and fellow Track & Field stars with him to Boston. He’ll be joined by Olympic teammates Maurice Smith, who came in 2nd at the 2007 World Champs in the decathlon and also competed in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games; Chelsea Hammond, who placed 4th at 2008 Beijing Olympics in the Long Jump; Shevon Stoddart, a 2008 Olympian and aspiring recording artist; and Juliet Campbell, 2001 World Champion in the 200m and 400m.
