  The world’s fastest runners come from Jamaica. In the past decade most of the  sprint events have been dominated by male and female runners from the Caribbean  island. Usain Bolt, Asafa Powell and Verona Campbell-Brown are among Jamaica’s  world record holders and Olympic gold medalists.

  36 In former times sprinters were poor people who came from the slums. When  they saw they had talent they got scholarships at American colleges. They  experienced world class training there but, nevertheless, did not feel at home.  Today, Jamaica has the money to employ top coaches, so Jamaican sprinters stay  at home. Here they are more relaxed and can perform better.

  In Jamaica, children start running at a very early age. When they get to  school, teachers and athletic coaches watch them run and walk. Then, depending  on their talent they are sent to track and field clubs. 37 At school track meets  crowds of teenagers get together to compete with each other. Running is very  important in Jamaica and winning a national title or a school championship is  something really big. 38

  Another reason for Jamaica’s success on tracks around the world is food. A  typical breakfast includes salt fish with yams, bananas and maybe a cup of tea.  It contains carbohydrates which runners need to perform well.

  39 They have long legs and little fat. Their narrow hips allow them to lift  their knees higher when they run. Many scientists have been researching African  and Caribbean runners in order to find out if they have a special gene that  makes them faster than the others. 40
