Bolt, who holds the world records in 100 and 200 meters, will race in the men's 4x100 meter relay. "We are thrilled that Usain Bolt will be running at the Penn Relays," said event director Dave Johnson. "He ran here four years in a row as a teenager, and this will be his first time back since he became the sport's biggest star."
