Gary Morgan is my hero. Gary travels more than I do and he goes to places that I have never even considered. On most weekends, Mr. Ubiquitous is pacing runners in various half marathons and marathons around the world. Gary Morgan was a member of the 1988 U.S. Olympic team at the men’s 20k.
Gary Morgan and I have done geek video coverage of major athletics events around the world. Gary and I tell stories, go over the meet, and try and give it a finishing touch or final memory of the meet.
The key is this: Gary Morgan loves the sport, and loves the Olympic movement. Right now, he is in Sochi, covering the Winter Olympics
This is from the 2013 World Championships in Moscow. It is Running Network’s salute to the World Championships.

Of RunBlogRun, his daily pilgrimage with the sport, Larry says: "I have to admit, I love traveling to far away meets, writing about the sport I love, and the athletes I respect, for my readers at runblogrun.com, the most of anything I have ever done, except, maybe running itself."
