Nadia 50 years later

As a young coach, I almost jumped in a vehicle and drove 3 days to Montreal to watch Nadia win the 1976 Olympics.

It seemed to far. Too expensive. I didn’t go.

My mistake.

Her performance in Montreal was one of the great stories of our sport.

Nadia had a lot of difficulty. But — Nellie Kim had more. Nadia was more impressive to me for her astonishing execution.
