5. Speaking about his most famous race, he says: “Going into the
stadium for the final, I was quite relaxed but when I saw my
rivals, tension mounted. And with each minute it increased. I
drew lane five with the South African Malcolm Spence to my left
and the German Manfred Kinder on my right. I was going
strong till about 250 meters. But then I slowed down a bit.

I continued at that speed. At that point I even looked back or
maybe it was just a side-glance. But that fraction of a second
decided my fate. One by one they all caught up with me...”
