BRISTOL, Conn, U.S.A. — Usain Bolt, the world’s fastest human, raced against 11 ESPN employees at the company’s Bristol, Conn. campus today. The race included two Sportscenter anchors. After a β€œpractice run,” in which all but one ESPN worker ran but Bolt didn’t, he easily mosied to a first-place finish. After his victory, he quipped, β€œDo I get a medal or something?” The β€œESPNers” had varied excuses, including that they were winded from the first run and that their shoes were untied. ESPN employees were packed five deep along the 100 meter course on a paved road.
