“Experience has taught me how important it is to just keep going, focusing on running fast and relaxed. Eventually it passes and the flow returns. It’s part of racing.”
I can’t believe I forgot to post this picture. Frank Shorter was one of the speakers at the Calgary Marathon expo in May. We didn’t get to hear him speak but I did get his autograph and this picture. For those of you who don’t know who he is… he’s the 1972 Olympic Marathon gold medalist. Pretty cool, eh?
Meeting him was a surprise so I didn’t know what to say except, how’s it going? Are you sticking around for the marathon? I hate small talk. But it was cool nonetheless. He seemed to be a nice guy.
