We are a little over a week out from the final and most daunting event of the summer Olympics! The Men’s Olympic Marathon will be a great display of fitness, talent and above all perseverance over the oppressive Beijing heat and humidity! I know Brian Sell has been down in Florida for some time now and is running in 90+ heat for his workouts with 80% humidity most days. According to his coach Kevin Hanson he has been nailing his workouts and is ready!!
Well, the bag is packed and I am off tomorrow morning after a quick run. I will get there just in time to catch the men’s 1500m final on Tuesday night. It just got a lot less interesting with Lagat not making the final?!
