Here’s a great clip from coaching legend Joe Vigil.
He’s about to leave for Beijing…but he left us with these words – after seeing the film:
“Everyone in America who loves distance running should see the Long Green Line. It is a fascinating document which vividley portrays the influence one person can have on so many. It displays the passion, integrity, compassion and leadership it took to develop the top high school cross country program in America. It shows the love that he had for all his runners from the state champions to number 200 in the pecking order. He reached them all.”
Joe I. Vigil
Olympic Distance Coach 2008
He has TONS of wisdom – that goes WAY beyond his running knowledge.
