GO!!! It seems like JoJo's getting off to a great start this year as he embarks down the 180 day track known as the middle year of college. If you look at that instant replay, you can see that his footing seemed to be in a good place right as he left the starting line. He's now a few hundred yards down the track and still seems to be keeping a steady pace. I really think he has a chance at winning this thing if he can just keep his eyes on the finish. We've seen in previous races how some great athletes slipped up by getting too caught up in the crowd's excitement and missed qualifying for the next round by a fraction of a second. That's right, and if you recall from last year, JoJo almost missed qualifying for the next round due to fatigue and some blurry vision. But as you can see, it seems that he's getting off to a much better start this time around. If he can push through to the finish for the the next two races, I really think he has a chance at winning the gold. The only thing he needs to remember is to pace himself and save the sprint for those last few yards. We'll have live coverage as this race progresses. And be sure to check in later for boxing as we watch JoJo and some of our other top athletes fight the good fight.
Stay tuned.

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
