Bolt and Pistorius to Compete in Czech Meet OSTRAVA, Czech Republic - Usain Bolt, the triple Olympic gold medalist and world record holder, will headline an impressive field at the 51st Golden Spike meet here Friday evening. Although less prestigious than the International Association of Athletics Federations" Diamond League events, the World Challenge meet annually attracts some of the sport's elite performers, especially this season with the coming London Olympics. It will be Bolt's sixth appearance here. A 25-year-old from Kingston, Jamaica, he will race in the 100 meters for the second consecutive year. "I'm definitely coming out here really focused," said Bolt, who wore a Yankees baseball cap during the opening news conference. I've never seen the weather so nice here in Ostrava, and if it is this nice on Friday I can go real fast. I think 9.7 is possible. That's the aim. Earlier this month, Bolt clocked a 9.82 in Kingston. His current 100-meter world record is 9.58. Oscar Pistorius will continue his quest to make Olympic history, striving to become the first amputee athlete to compete in both the Paralympics and Olympic Games. A South African double amputee, Pistorius will take to the track in Europe for the first time this season racing alongside the 2008 Olympic 400-meter champion, LaShawn Merritt. "It's a privilege to run with LaShawn, but I'm sure he is going to post a very quick time tomorrow night," Pistorius, 25, said. I'll try to stick with him for part of the race. If I could run mid-45s here, I'll be happy with that," he said, referring to the 400-meter race in which he and Merritt will compete. To secure his Olympic spot on South Africa's team, Pistorius needs to run the Olympic A standard of 45.3, which he has done twice in the past 10 months. But he mentioned Thursday that the B qualification of 45.7 might also be adequate as no South African runner has reached the mark this season. "I'm in good shape," he said. I'm expecting to run an A or B qualification by the end of the month. Regarding any possible postrace celebrations should he qualify, Pistorius said, "I'll leave the dancing to the Jamaicans." Other top Americans in the field are Darvis Patton (100 meters), Wallace Spearmon (200 meters), Sanya Richards-Ross (400 meters) and Lolo Jones (110-meter hurdles).
