Yohan Blake, the 2011 world 100m champion, is looking forward to a great outing at the JN Racers Grand Prix on June 10.

The meet, dubbed “Farewell to a Legend” will be Usain Bolt’s last race in Jamaica.

Blake, who won at the Jamaica Invitational on May 20, said he is “feeling good” and that he is “working to come back”

He has suffered with injuries over the past three years, which have affected his performance on the track.

However, the former Junior and St. Jago High School star, says, “I think I am there (back to full fitness)”

“I am just looking forward to go out there and have a good time,” he added.

Blake said he will miss Bolt, and according to him, “we gel together, we have good chemistry.”
