is an Olympian, a World Athletics Council member, a former world record holder in triple jump, and president of HSJ Incorporated. He lives in Carlsbad.
I am sitting in my hotel room in Tokyo having finished two days of World Athletics’ Council meetings and reflecting on what a very different Olympic Games we are having. These may be the least attended Games, but millions of people are watching. And what an Olympics it has been so far.
I have a very unique perspective on these Games. I am well-versed on the Olympic Movement, the country of Japan and the experience of an athlete at the Olympic Games.
