"In Sport the athlete is always left
with the same options. Great
athletes are not simply born
great. No one is born a great
Anything - great athletes are not
born, they are made. They are a
complex mix of genetics, environment,
an indomitable will to win, often a
sacrificial lifestyle,
an excellent coach and if they are
to be long - lasting, an obsession
with consistency“
Sebastian Coe

• Actions rather than aptitudes
