Description

I caught up with Greg Thompson, who is currently warm weather training in Florida. Last year Greg broke the World Championship qualification distance by throwing a mighty 65.5 metres, placing him fourth in the British All Time for discus. Still only in his mid 20s, he has yet to reach his peak as an athlete. We talked about his progress so far, the extreme disappointment of not being selected for the World Championships, even with that throw, and what it means to be black during these times of protest.
