Legends of Athletics – Interview with Maurice Greene

March 14, 2013 by Jimson Lee 1 Comment

If you have 10 minutes to spare, then this video of Maurice Green from the IAAF is a good one.

The IAAF Academy had plenty of videos of past and present athletes, so be sure to check them out.

In this video, you will learn:

  • Who was Mo’s role model? The answer will surprise you, and it’s NOT Carl Lewis.
  • What does he regret most after leaving the sport?  (current athletes, take note)
  • What is it REALLY like to race on a grass track?
  • His favorite spikes and  the technology behind it (a free plug for adidas!)

    interesting interview with Mo from a different angle. Very surprised by his role model though…, and i like it. It just shows that spike (whether light or heavy built), it’s the Athlete that makes the spike shoe look good.
