World Champion
dont know how many of you have been following World Championships Athletics at the ex Olympic Stadium. but i thought i would share my visit from the opening night
before i start on the action got to hand it to the volunteers & security because Volunteers were brilliant couldnt have been more helpful & security officials doing the searches surprised me because we got in this queue/wall of people of thousands spilt into 8 queues. i thought 35/40mins at least instead just 15mins dont know if thats comparible to silverstone. After finally getting to our seats that were great once we had finally got to them on row 65. takes alot for me to feel sorry for west ham fans doing that 19 times a year as upper tier stairs are ridiculously steep. might as well give free heart attack with every season ticket
onto what was an amazing night & experience it was. because in went into the ballot 12 months ago as i had to see the legend Usain Bolt 1 of Greatest sprinters in history & will i feel go down in history as 1 of special sportsman that trancedented his sport, race 1 final time before he retired post championships & he delivered on everything i hoped because he is a brilliant showman even in the 1st round the noise you think he was british. as soon as he was on track everyone stood up & huge roar from the crowd. as expected he won his heat to send everyone happy, Bolt was Amazing as i say. but onto my sporting highlight of 2017 (excluding Blades lifting L1 trophy) Mo Farah 10000m race. i cant begin to tell you what a privilege it was to be there in person to witness Mo farah Victory. because i was at olympics 5 yrs ago but 3 days after Super Saturday, them final 2 laps was incredible i nearly lost my voice i understand now when talk about special atmosphere from 2012 .because it support like mexican wave of noise that followed Mo Farah around the track & the deafening roar easily rivaled anything ive been lucky to witness in sport.
