This morning I read an article Messiah of sprint coaching takes centre stage on GLEN MILLS the sprint coach whose 3 wards got the Gold, Silver and Bronze in the ongoing Olympics London 2012. 

Interesting and valuable points from the article. A must read for anyone who is a coach in any field

Few expert insights..

"My knowledge is not exclusive as I believe that other people have similar information. We all get it from the same research, the same scientific data, but maybe I can use it better than most."

“You gain experience and as you do so, you gain knowledge because you run (training) programmes, develop different people and that expands your experience,” said Mills, who coached Jamaica’s Raymond Stewart to sixth place in the 1984 Olympics 100 metres final.

“I’m constantly seeking knowledge, whether it’s in books, on the internet or even talking to other practitioners,” said Mills

“I’ve learnt a lot from the doctors I associate with as it relates to the function of the human body and the different aspects and effects of training on the human body and so on.” 

“It can’t be as long as what has gone already,” he said. “What I do know is that anytime I don’t have that zest, then it’s time to pack up.”
