However the sprint superstar insisted he was fit and ready to take on his rivals as he ventured out of his Birmingham training base to watch Batman blockbuster “The Dark Knight Rises.”
Bolt said: “I’m training hard and looking forward to the start of the Games.” Bolt’s private cinema visit came just two days after 12 people were shot dead at a screening of the film at a theatre in Colorado.
