John McDonnell, Part 1

Jun 17, 2008

John McDonnell just finished his coaching career this past weekend at the NCAA Championships where his team finished 17th. McDonnell has brought everyone in the track & field community many great memories throughout the years that we are all thankful for. I got to sit down with Coach McD in Fayetteville and talk about his experiences over the years. We met at IHOP so excuse the background noise of people eating, but thats how great Coach is....takes time out of his evening to meet you at IHOP for coffee and chat about his experiences, great guy!

Part 1 goes through how Coach McDonnell started coaching, his first race at age 18, and coming to America for the first time.
