“If I hadn’t been a good runner, I would have been a bad runner – but I would still have been a runner.”
Brendan Foster
Brendan Foster is retiring from commentating after this years world's in London which starts Friday. When I first started running Brendan was one of the guys I looked up to as he just seemed a workman like guy when he ran as you saw the effort he put out in his races. If you are in the UK you can watch this BBC program on him - Brendan Foster: A Life in Athletics. If anyone knows a way to to watch this in the US let me know as I would like to see it, hope it ends up on Youtube at some time.
