Is it a deer? Is is a plane? No, it may be Usain Bolt in Bushy Park!
Writes Mark Birch, Lettings Manager at Teddington estate agents Jackson Stops & Staff: “We, like the rest of London are well aware that the 2012 Olympics commences in London in less than a year.
“What you may not be aware is that if you go down to Bushy Park in the lead-up to the Olympics, keep an eye out because that speeding object in the park might not be a deer but the fastest man on the planet – Usain Bolt .
“The highest paid and fastest athlete in the history of track and field is represented by the management firm Pace Sports Management in Teddington who also represent British hopefuls such as Rhys Williams, Mark Lewis Francis and Christine Ohuruogu.
“However if you don’t feel you’d be able to keep pace with Mr Bolt but fancy a run in the park, it may be worth joining the weekly family-friendly 5k run which is held every Saturday – click here for more details.”
