Gotta Have Faith

An excerpt from an excellent piece on Craig Mottram:

"I read lots of stories about other sports, particularly American sports stories about people overcoming obstacles, and I'm fascinated by those sorts of things. Because that's what I do, that's the heart of it. Everyone thinks it's to do with the training … you can learn about the training in four or five books — it's written everywhere. It's the other stuff. Some people, no matter how much you tell them, they'll never be able to do it."

USATF Indoors Championships

The USATF Indoor Track and Field Championships took place the weekend of February 24-25th. There were plenty of fast results.
