The Big Mig backs myplace

Friday, 02 October 2009 12:17

Miguel IndurainIt seems that when you are in the myplace support team you are never off duty. When Malcolm McClean took a few days out to cycle from London to Paris in aid of the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation he couldn't resist telling anyone who would listen all about myplaceIncluding someone who knows quite a bit about being World class.

 

One of Malcolm's cycling partners was Miguel Indurain, the first man ever to win five consecutive Tours de France. Miguel, seen here sporting his myplace hat, had a resting heart rate of 29 (a few beats lower and he would be clinically dead) and an eight litre lung capacity. Yet he feels he needed other strengths to be World class, he said "My strength was that I am more balanced and calmer than most other riders. I inherited that calm from my father, who was a farmer. You sow, you wait for good or bad weather, you harvest, but working is something you always need to do. The sense for responsibility I have got from my mother."

 

Sow your seeds, work hard and take responsibility.....good advice for anyone involved in pushing their myplace centre onto even greater things.
