Two great track & field races that deserve note. The 1500 meter race that American Cole Hocker won all on guts and will power. Boxed in on the inside lane and losing stride temporarily he shifts into overdrive and beats the world champion for a taste of his own glory for old glory. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2sb32uxUO10
Then the mens 400 meter final has another American, Quincy Hall, (who went to H.S. around my neck of the woods) that dug deep down into his reserves and toughed out a win that looked impossible from where he was after the final turn. Great moments in sporting history. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkmcEL-C25I
The Olympics always has those moments. Just pure human desire and perseverance.
