This show best represents the spirit of the Olympics! - you see teammate Dave mingling not only with his fellow track mates, but with other athletes/sports and folks from other countries. Also, Dave had to compete with an injury at age 30 - while raising a family - to make the team, when most would have given up on their Olympic dream. What an inspiration!
That was awesome. In the year pre Internet and video everywhere. It is great to see walk photos from that era. I'ma big fan of walking and especially "Big Red". Dave is a great inspiration.
This was great, Dave. Thanks for posting it. - Dan O'Brien (the walker, not the decathlete)
