Maybe he instills the will to win ???
Maybe he knows how to get his athletes to peak at just the right time.
Come on give credit where credit is due.

While Zatopek's Olympic triple will surely never be duplicated, I
believe he set another record that is just as, if not more untouchable: an
unbroken streak of 69 victories over 5,000 and 10,000 meters between 1949
and 1952.
Few elite runners today will even come close to running
Allow me to explain why we used mile splits for the announcing at the NCAA
XC meet.
Remember, we are using high school kids at the intermediate points with
walkie talkies. We instruct them to give us the split, the leaders and the
team scores or team 1-5 differentials, depending on their

when is the meet going to be aired?
Does anyone have a tape of the start? i doubt that many people were taping
(just seems like it was too cold to tape- my mothers camara froze).
I would really like to see the start so if anyone has pictures or a tape
could you let me know?
Thanks

The best thing the amazing Emil Zatopek ever did was to give one of his
Olympic 5,000-meter gold medals to the legendary Ron Clarke. From all I've
heard and read, Zapopek was an absolutely terrific man. He will be missed.

Coach Mac's record stands on it's own. He's obviously has an excellent system
which allows his athletes to perform their best on the right day. To say that
Stanford has more "talent" than Arkansas is just not true. Karanu, Travis,
Karie and Link certainly stack up, in terms of perceived

I first met Emil Zatopek at the Prague European Championships in 1978 and
was amazed at how friendly and warm he was to mere hacks. We would meet at
the stadium bar/cafe and he would talk track and field for however long
people wanted to listen.
He was self deprecatory, too. Talking about his

My guess is this: tradition. He gets everyone on the same page at the right
