Even if he is a few weeks late, Usain Bolt has the same old message – ‘Catch me if you can’.

There was no sign of the world and Olympic champion in the early-season races he usually runs back home in Jamaica. And sure enough, there were fears he was late with training, or worse, not fully recovered from last year’s back injury.

That’s not the case, says agent Ricky Simms.

He said “everything has gone very, very well over the winter. We are looking forward to his first race in Rome” on May 26, the third of the season’s Diamond League events.
