Companions of the Compendium Episode 25 Calvin Smith Former World Record 100m Sprinter, Olympic Gold Medalist and Author


Today I got to meet a hero of mine growing up! Even when I was young I loved sprinting and the Olympics! Today I get to meet one of the fastest people in the history of planet earth. A clean sport advocate, we got into numerous subjects from his upbringing in the South, his college experience all the way to his gold medal glory. We dove deeply into how he trained and what he thought was his secret weapon against his opponents. He talked about the importance of keeping the drug testers ahead of the cheaters and why he feels it's important for the athletes who toe the line testing themselves against the world's best. He had some ideas on how to fix the sport of track & field while building off its natural advantages. It was a special treat to sit down and chat with this world-class human being!
