Bolt sets sights on breaking 20-second mark in 200

Usain Bolt hopes to bounce back from a rare defeat with a convincing victory in the 200 meters at the Bislett Games on Thursday.

The Jamaican, who lost to American Justin Gatlin in the 100 in Rome last week, is aiming to be the first to break the 20-second mark this season, in his first long sprint of the year.

Bolt says, "I'm feeling pretty good, I think I'm in shape to run under 20 seconds. It's all about the execution and getting it right."

Bolt has his sights set on Frank Fredericks' track record of 19.82, set by the Namibian in 1996, and will be pushed by local challenger Jaysuma Saidy Ndure, who is also aiming to beat the 20-second mark.

European 200 champion Churandy Martina of the Netherlands and Curtis Mitchell of the U.S. are also running.
