I have to tell you. I love speaking with Maurice Greene. This man knows sprinting and
how athletes respond to challenges.
Maurice Greene is one of the finest sprinters in our sports’ history.
Maurice won World Champs at the 100m in 1997, 1999, and 2001.
In 1999, Maurice won the 200m and anchored the 4 x100m relay to gold.
In the Sydney Olympics, Maurice took gold in the 100 meters and anchored the 4x100m relay.
In 2004, Maurice took the bronze in the 100m and anchored the 4x100m relay to the silver.
Maurice Greene is a brand ambassador, and thanks to adidas, RunBlogRun developed a podcast,
the MO & Larry show, which we produced in Rio 2016 and London 2017. The format was Larry Eder asked
Mo questions and Mo did what he does best after sprinting: Maurice can talk track & field.
In this interview, done during the 2022 World Athletics Championships, we discussed the results of the Men’s & Women’s 100 meters. We also discussed how the Men’s 200 meters would turn out.
You will love this one!
Thanks to Maurice Greene once again for his time and enthusiasm.
Thanks to Danny Lopez, adidas Sports Marketing and Spencer Nel, adidas Global Sports Marketing.
