I love the throws. Throwers and distance runners get along because they work out long hours, consume mass quantities of food products and beverages, and are the mellow part of the sport of athletics. Perhaps the addition might be that they both are mellow until they either enter the ring or hit the start line of the race…
I met John Godina in 1992 at an TAFWA Indoor Luncheon in Manhattan that I was fortunate enough to be at. I watched John compete in Goteborg, Atlanta among other places. I always enjoyed his sense of humor, and also his competitive nature.
John’s dream, the world throws’ center, is his baby. Godina is coaching, and Dan Taylor is one of his athletes. Hats off to the World Throws Center for sponsoring the National Throw Coaches Clinic and Convention. Good things, and good people build our sport. This is a ” good thing”.
