Does Usain Bolt need a jogging partner? The champion sprinter and world's fastest man recently took a trip to Kenya to help launch a conservation campaign, called Long Run, headed up by German charity Zeitz Foundation, which works to promote ecologically sound practices in Kenya. During the trip, Bolt toured an animal sanctuary in Nairobi and saw some of the animals Africa is known for.

"I was attracted to the initiative because of its objectives on the conservation of the environment and co-existence of different cultures," Bolt told BBC News. "I do a lot of charity work in Jamaica, but I would like to see firsthand the challenges facing Africa in environment."

During his visit, he adopted a baby Cheetah and named it Lightening Bolt. Even though there are a variety of animals in the sanctuary, Bolt obviously felt akin to the cheetah. Is there a better choice?

"I am glad it wasn't a lion. The cheetah is much more calm," he said.
