During a cross country race in Burlanda, Navarre, Ivan was outpaced by Abel Mutai, the London Olympic Bronze Medalist in the 3000M. Ivan ran a good race, but trailed Abel by a wide margin entering the final stretch. Abel, who had an unsurmountable lead, pulled up 10 meters short of the finish line thinking that he had won. Ivan caught up and could have easily passed Abel, but he didn't. Instead he used gestures to communicate to the Kenyan and pushed him ahead and across the line to win the race.
The Main Point
Ivan said that even if winning meant earning a spot on the Spanish team for the European Championships, he still would have pushed Abel ahead. Ivan has character, the cold and calculating Lance Armstrong does not, not even a little.
This event happened in December. Unfortunately, these types of stories are overshadowed by Lance Armstrong admitting to taking performance enhancing drugs and lying about it. This story is also obscured by Manti T'eo imaginary girlfriend hoax.
I have talked to my kids about all of these stories. The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

These are the kinds of sports stories we should want our kids to hear. Sports should teach them about dignity, sportsmanship, fair play and team work--not win no matter what you have to do to win.
ReplyDeleteHi Jodi - Sports should teach that - unfortunately coaches do the teaching and most have not learned this lesson.

You mean we shouldn't teach them to beat their chest and make mean faces when they do the most rudimentary task in their sport of choice? Kidding of course. I agree, more of these stories need to be out there. I've seen similar stories, I believe a girl's track meet, where the runner will help the other runner across, etc. When they do pop up, I make sure my daughter's pay attention to real sportsmanship.
ReplyDeleteI do the same with my kids. Thanks for adding to the conversation.

How much do you charge for a Statistics Assignment Help task? Take, for my case, where I need you to provide me with the Statistics Homework Help on plotting a scatter plot with a regression line? How much should that cost? Do you charge on the basis of the workload or have a constant payment?

The economics assignmenthelp expert handling my assignment has already contacted me and I am certain that my work is underway. I am just hoping that I will get quality economics homework help.

ReplyDeleteJust what I was looking for. I am struggling with my accounting assignment. I want an Accounting Assignment Help tutor to offer me two services. One is to complete my accounting assignments and the other is to provide me with online classes. I believe you are experienced enough to offer both Accounting Homework Help and online classes. I know you charge assignments based on the bulk. Tell me how much you charge for the online classes per hour.

Let me know how much you charge for your math homework help services.
ReplyDeleteI don’t have time to look for another expert and therefore I am going to hire you with the hope that I will get qualityeconomics assignment help. .Being aneconomics homework help professor I expect that your solutions are first class.

ReplyDeleteHey there, I need an Statistics Homework Help expert to help me understand the topic of piecewise regression. In our lectures, the concept seemed very hard, and I could not understand it completely. I need someone who can explain to me in a simpler way that I can understand the topic. he/she should explain to me which is the best model, the best data before the model and how to fit the model using SPSS. If you can deliver quality work then you would be my official Statistics Assignment Help partner.
