Winning by a full four body-lengths over American defending champ Shawn Crawford, Jamaica’s Usain Bolt made Olympic history Wednesday. Bolt became the first-ever sprinter to break world records and win gold medals in both the 100- and 200-meter races during one Olympics. “I blew my mind and I blew the world’s mind,” Bolt says. His 19.30 seconds in the 200 made him the first man since Carl Lewis to sweep gold medals from both sprints. Lewis did so in 1984. Bolt also beat Michael Johnson’s 12-year-old record of 19.32 seconds. Not even Olympics legend Jesse Owens completed a 100, 200 sweep.

<p><em></em><br />
Former Trinidad and Tobago sprinter Alvin Henry has begun a 21-year rape sentence at a time when some of his former contemporaries are attending the Beijing Olympics. Henry, who competed in the 400-meter relay at the 2000 Games, pleaded guilty to raping a New York woman in a park last year. Though he was charged with several similar attacks, Henry was also called the “lover’s lane rapist” after he allegedly recorded a woman having sex in a park with her boyfriend. He reportedly threatened to release the video unless the woman had sex with him.</p>
