At the Beijing Olympics, the morning of the preliminary heat, Felix Sanchez got the news that his grandma had died.  He ran, but ended up doing horribly.  He cried the whole day.  He vowed that he would win a medal for her before he retired.  And today in London, he won the gold.  That picture on the ground is of himself and his grandma.

What’s your motivation?
