      A distant 3rd place is what you consider excellence and dedication? So what do you consider the winner’s performance?

    I am proud of Kyron's performance. As he prepares for the Olympics, it is a good idea for him to keep progressing in good time. One has to be very careful not to produce your top performance too early and falter at the closing stage of your preparation or suffer injury. However, I firmly believe that Kyron needs to use vitamin B-12 to boost his energy level if it is lawful to do so. Should he be permitted to use vitamin B-12 then no one will win him on the track
