Regrets
3 years ago
I would think most athletes would say their biggest regret would be never winning an olympic medal for their country, or only making it to the finals once out of four trips...especially someone who considers themself as a racer. Not many athletes would say their biggest acheivement is having their old high school times still be on the record books. That is very a very peculiar thought process. |

A lot of US athletes who seem obsessed about chasing times ought to learn from Joetta's career. She won a lot of races and she competed for a long time. My first track coach taught me, track was first about winning races. The times would take care of themselves. Great Interview. Great Athlete. Great Role Model. |

The Clarks have a long legacy in the 800m. I was privileged to be coached by the same person that coached Joetta in High School. Len Klepack. Klepack was a great teacher of life not just track and field. By the way Joetta's Dad is Joe Clark who morgan freeman made famous in Lean on Me |
