Description

Press play and get ready for some laughs and some tears. 1996 Olympic Gold Medalist Dan O'Brien sits down to talk about the coaches that poured into him during his career as one of the top decathletes in the world. You'll learn of Larry Hunt the coach responsible for steering Dan into the decathlon and by that very act changed the world of track and field for the better. We'll learn of the multiple heart breaks including the 1992 Olympic Trials. Dan gives us a behind the scenes look at the famous 'Dan and Dave' Reebok commercials, and we learn what he's up to now. ENJOY!
