Edwin Moses vs. Danny Harris, Madrid 4-Jun-1987

[elforfi1]

It was my fault. I was driving him arround those days in Madrid and I had the A/C too cold. I wasn´t used to it at that time, and he got a cold. It´s not a joke, it´s true and I´ve always had this bad feeling in my mind

[elforfi1]

Fue culpa mia. Yo fui su chofer esos dias en Madrid, y llevaba el A/C muy fuerte. Era una novedad y no sabia usarlo. Le sento mal y corrio acatarrado. No es broma, siempre me ha quedado ese mal rollo.

Haha Danny Harris is my new coach!

[Visionary0001]

@Maliqdrew I raced against your coach when he went to Perris (CA) high school, from 1981-1983, and after that in NCAA competition, also. Amazing talent, even then. Too bad he got BANNED FOR LIFE by the USATF in 1991. Did he tell you kids WHY he got a (rare) lifetime ban from competition? (I won't embarrass him publicly here.)

Tell him R.S. says hi, and that my kids might get a chance to race his kids, soon.

Notice how Edwin Moses clipped the last hurdle, and I mean he really tripped over it! But he could have done that just trying to keep up with Harris, lol.

I remember this was breaking news back then.

[MrScottydabody]

@Eric0816 yeah, i remember it being that too.

En la pista 1 se encontraba el chileno Pablo Esquella ("cacharra"). Que llegó 5º, luego de terminar la carrera se acerca y le dice " sigues siendo el mejor". Grande Moses, gran atleta y persona.

A winning streak of nine years, nine months and nine days came to the end right here. Nobody will come close to achieving that - ever.

Anyone else notice that Moses did not appear to congratulate Harris ?

122 is one record I don't think will ever be broken.
