Usain Bolts illustrious career ends in tears after injury downs him in final race

It was a heartbreaking ending to an outstanding track and field career for Usain Bolt on Saturday at the IAAF World Championships in London.

Running the final leg of the men’s 4×100 relay for Jamaica, Bolt failed to finish after an injury led him to pull up just after teammate Yohan Blake handed him the baton.

Bolt collapsed on the track, as the British, American and Japanese teams soared ahead to secure their first, second and third podium spots, respectively. This is the first time since 2008 that a team other than Jamaica won the event at a major meet.
