Nick Symmonds, Indoors 2014, photo by PhotoRun.net
NIck Symmonds is back. This interview was filmed by Tim Jeffreys for the Shoe Addicts BEFORE his masterful final in the 800 meters.
This is a fantastic interview.
Watching Nick Symmonds after the his masterful 800 meters victory at the USATF Outdoor Championships makes this interview even more amazing.
Symmonds ran seasonal bests in the first two rounds.
His comments on the “right moral code” is well done. He showed class in noting that he might owe Alberto Salazar an apology. He also noted that the process is very important for the sport.
Nick Symmonds has made every team he has tried for and this was no exception. As Duane Solomon collapsed, Casmir Loxsom and Eric Sowinski went by.
