Flotrack's Most Memorable Moment, Best of 2012 - Watching men's 1500 final in London!

(August 7, 2012) - This is a video of the Flocasts crew (Flotrack, Flowrestling, Cyclingdirt and Gymnastike) all together watching the men's 1500 meter final. Flocasts started in Austin where Leo Manzano lives and trains. Mark Floreani, the founder of Flotrack, was a teammate of Leo's at the University of Texas. Texas along with Leo was one of the first programs and athletes to open there doors to Flotrack. In addition Leo's coach, Ryan Ponsonby, was Mark's partner in crime from day one of Flotrack as they drove around the country getting the first videos anyone ever saw on the site. Since then we have been there almost every step of the way from traveling with Leo, filming workouts, actually pacing Leo in his workouts and celebrating specials occasions (birthdays, holidays, etc...). As we grew closer to Leo throughout his career we understood how much the Olympic dream meant to him. And as you can see in the video, it wasn't only the lovers of track & field....everyone in the company who knew Leo understand. The emotions in the room we something like we had never felt before and it is a moment we won't ever forget.

Speakers: Leo Manzano, Mark Flotrack, Ryan Fenton, Mark Bader, Mark Floreani, Kevin Liao

I think the BYU team video was cooler when batty broke the collegiate record. Sure it's no olympic medal but i feel like the fact that it was his team made it better overall. plus, you guys can't give yourselves an award. and you probly copied the BYU guys who did there's back in feb.

That's what I'm talkin about! I was watching this race at a cafe in Belgrade. Was trying to keep myself from being the abnoxious American, but didn't give a damn!

Cue up this race video at 4:43 and start at the same time as the reaction vid. The side-by-side makes it even better!

I was in the stadium that night and it was GREAT! Thanks for the reminder of how exciting it was. One race; everything on the line. That's what makes track & field the best.

Why did you guys keep calling Manzano's name so much compared to Centro's even though he won the bronze at Worlds last year?

Was this the same reaction when he was reppin' both flags? Leo was a cool dude until he no longer represented the United States.))))

There's ALWAYS one. Did you like "The Hangover" with Mike Tyson in it? Or did you not watch it because he was a convicted rapist?

This is awesome, pure joy unleashed :) I put a link to this video on my training studio's facebook page. Do you guys at Flotrack know if Leo has seen this yet? I can't imagine anything much cooler than being an athlete that would inspire this kind of reaction.

Awesome. NBC should hire you guys. Their announcers sounded like they were watching a funeral.
