Abebe Bikila won two Olympic golds, in Rome 1960 and Tokyo 1964. Jim Hogan collapsed in the Tokyo marathon, and won the 1966 European marathon championships. Jim Hogan is featured in a wonderful story by Ron Clarke, in his book, #theLonelybreed

Jean Paul Sartre, every athlete should read him…
Jean Paul Sartre was the first person to decline the Nobel Prize. In 1964, Sartre was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, but made it known that he did not wish to accept the prize as he had always declined official honours. More on Sartre’s refusal: bit.ly/2ZP590B

Name an athlete whose real name is so good it sounds made up. Not a nickname, the actual name on the birth certificate. Any sport, any era.

Sad news on loss of this young athlete from India!
💔 JAYARAM DONDAPATI’S LAST RACE Mrutyam Jayaram Dondapati competed in the men’s 200m at the recently concluded U23 Nationals in Jaipur, winning silver with a time of 21.04s. Just 15 days ago, the promising sprinter had joined the Indian Navy through the sports quota. A young athlete with a bright future, gone too soon. #IndianAthletics #OdishaAthletics #Athletics #NNISSports #AthleticsIndia

Helsinki to host 2030 European Athletics Indoor Championships! They were wonderful host to World Champs in 2005, and this will be 4th time that they have hosted @euroathletics champs!
The 2030 European Athletics Championships will be held in Helsinki – the fourth time the Finnish capital has hosted. Helsinki last held the championships in 2012, as well as both 1971 and 1994 [no city has hosted it on four occasions]. It also played host to the inaugural World Athletics Championships in 1983.
