About this episode
John Steffensen isn't a swimmer but he did shape Brett's coaching philosophy. They talk about how a swimmer and a runner became friends. How he trained as a 200/400 meter runner. Winning Silver on the 4x100 Relay at the 2004 Olympics in Athens. The similarities between a 200 Freestyle and the 400m. Doping. Training 100% for 9 months, party for 2. Becoming close friends with Usain Bolt. What he's best at. Another chicken nugget story. John's competitive mentality. "If you're not setting a personal best at the Games, you messed up!" Driving home with Usain after he ripped his hamstring in 2014. The Last Dance. And much, much more.
