Five Golds in Five Games
Global Village Idiot Started conversation Sep 23, 2000
Let's take a moment to reflect on the achievement of Steven Redgrave:
Five gold medals in an unbroken sequence from Los Angeles via Seoul, Barcelona and Atlanta, all the way to Sydney. Remarkable.
Doing all that in a sport based on physical power and endurance. Unique.
Doing it as a diabetic. Unbelievable.
Steve Redgrave. Astonishing human being.
