We have, for the past two years, been fortunate to work with Maurice Greene, a man who dominated the sprints from 1997 to 2004 with his talent, focus and sheer determination. Maurice is a keen observer of the sport and I have always found his conversations, his observations quite helpful as I work to cover the sport.

Over the last two global championships, thanks to the support of adidas, @runblogrun has been working with Maurice Greene to cover the major championships.
This is the second full show (about 10 minutes) into how to appreciate the World Championships. We think that you will enjoy it!
