Wow! It was great to find out what had happened to Leo after the Olympics. The local newspaper does not do justice to the great running talent Austin has, especially Leo Manzano. How often does UT have an track Olympian?
The guys running at the Olympics are pros and older than many of the first-time Olympians. Great to see that Leo is going to work on developing maturity and greatness. We will see him in the next Oympics! Buena suerte!
yah i would like to see him do that..but i seriously doubt it...i thnk hese gunna become a pretty legit miler...mayb make the podium pretty soon..who knows...its sad how the africas own the distnace events...mayb something like that south americans will come out haha..NOT..africans are gunan own....if i become a track or cc coahc...im not recruit all kenyans..im gunna recruit all Etheopians! hell yah!
It would also be great to see him become the "Rod Dixon/Francie Larrieu-Smith" of his era - move up, in due time, from 1500, to 5000/10000, and eventually to halfs/marathons. We're talking over a 15-year span, though, not 2012, nor even 2016. It's a thought, and a wish for good health and prosperity...
Great interview. Don't mind the driving, actually, Leo seems relaxed and opns aup alot rather than being so focused on being an interviewee. I like the lessons he's learned in such a full year that he has had. Especially lessons from "doing the work". ....and of course lessons from Vig....the small steps. Great job Ryan.
interesting interview, leo seems like a nice guy and he works hard it sounds like, the kinda open ended question made him talk alot.. along with driving ha. anyways he has a good future ahead
I like the driving or the running while interviewing because it shows a natural part of the runners. It also shows the personal relationships that the runners have with the flotrack guys. Keep it up guys, great interviw Ryan
Love Leo but this was not a good interview. Shouldn't ask an open question like that where the interviewee is forced to ramble on. Short questions are much better. Kinda boring.
