Book a cheap ferry to catch Bolt in Belgium

Book a cheap ferry to catch Bolt in Belgium
Fans of athletics hoping to catch a glimpse of some of the world's top track stars should book a ferry to Belgium this weekend.

The Samsung Diamond League finals will be held at the Belgacom Memorial Van Damme stadium and other arenas in Brussels, with events beginning tomorrow morning.

Visitors making ferry crossings to Belgium will get the chance to see 100m record holder Usain Bolt competing in his disciplines as well as the South African 'blade runner' Oscar Pistorious.

Bolt will want to show that he has steadied his starting nerves, after he snapped out of the blocks early in South Korea putting him out of the race.

The Jamaican currently has the sixth fastest track time of the year, falling just shy of fellow countryman Asafa Powell.

He will no doubt be feeling the added pressure ahead of the event, but having already run a 9.78 seconds time on this track three years ago, he can take confidence from his past performance here.

Speaking to the Associated Press he said: "It should be good … I've run very fast on this track."
