I additionally met Michael Johnson, whom if you realize your Olympic and observe historical past, is without doubt one of the biggest of all-time. Between Olympics and World Championships, Johnson went an ideal 13-for-13 in gold medal occasions—technically 12-for-12 after two USA relay members admitted to doping, leading to a DQ—within the 200, 400, and 4×400 meters. We chatted for a few minutes and have related visions about a few of what ails what I believe is a superb sport.
It’s an incredible dream to have lived out and I hope to do that once more at subsequent yr’s Prefontaine Basic, though I’m dreading the lodge costs for 4th of July weekend.
