LONDON (AP) — Usain Bolt went from breaking a record to spinning a record.

The sprinter completed the defense of all three Olympic titles by anchoring Jamaica’s 4×100-meter relay team to a world record Saturday night.

Bolt then hotfooted it from Olympic Stadium to a party nearby in east London, where he turned DJ, entertaining the packed crowd in the early hours of Sunday morning.

At the party, Bolt said: “I did what I did and I came here to be legend and I am now so I am very happy with myself.”

Bolt won gold in the 100 and 200 meters this week.
