Blake looks forward to double at Jamaica Trials

Yohan Blake is confident he will be fit and ready to take on the sprint double at June’s National Senior Championships.

Blake, in an interview with Reuters, said “how I`m training now, I really think I can get back there (full fitness), so right now I`m not worried.”

And according to the 25-year-old Blake, "based on how my training is feeling right now, I would like to attempt the (100-200) double at the national trials.”

The Jamaica Trials is set for June 25-28 while the Beijing World Championships will be held August 22-28.

Blake suffered a hamstring injury at the Glasgow Grand Prix last July. He has not raced since, but according to his manager Cubie Seegobin, "I`ve watched him train and I`ve seen the times and the progression and like I`ve said, we are ahead of ourselves.”
