Usain Bolt hung his sprinting boots up many years ago. Both the rusty and lush green track and field games miss him dearly. However, the Jamaican never let his engagements with the fields go, be it by trying a hard sprint on the sideline or keeping the athlete friends with him. Usain Bolt keeps enjoying the merriment he had created with his love for the sport. However, on a few things, he misses the glorified moments he had witnessed in his hay time. 

Recently, one such moment came along where Bolt had no option except to taste his tears. It was because of the remembrance of an untimely demise that had once almost broken the 37-year-old athlete. 

A mishap that shook Usain Bolt to the core 

In a series of Instagram stories posted by Usain Bolt on January 20, one stayed apart because of the message it bore. The sad visceral was clear to his fans with the sentences, “RIP MY G”. In further detail, the post held the image of Germaine Mason, the Olympic silver medalist who lost his life in 2017. The Jamaica-born athlete had changed his allegiance to Great Britain in 2006. However, the mutual respect between Bolt and Mason had never changed its color. Eventually, on the very day, when the fatal road accident had snatched the British high jumper’s life, Usain Bolt was one of the first to rush to the situation. After that, it had taken scores of time for the 9x Olympic champion to move on from the horrific loss. 

An unscheduled off from the routine had helped Usain Bolt at that time. Meanwhile, to The Guardian, he had claimed, “Mentally, I wasn’t ready to even train for, like, two and a half weeks, which I had to take off and just collect myself.” Eventually, that was his primary guard against the grief he had passed through.
