Life's New Normal Podcast With Host Long Jump Silver Medalist John Register

On October 18th, 1968, Robert (Bob) Beamon shattered the  world-long jump record in Mexico City. It remains as one of the most extraordinary sporting feats in Olympic history. He broke the existing record by a margin of 55 cm and his world record stood for almost 23 years until it was broken in 1991 by Mike Powell. Beamon's Olympic record stands to this day. Beamonesque: Beamon’s first leap at the 1968 Mexico City Games inspired the new word which means an athletic feat so superior to what has come before, it is overwhelming. Today we talk about his thoughts on still holding the Olympic record. What he was thinking on the medal podium, who he thought was going to surpass his mark, and what he hopes youth will learn from his feat 50 years ago.
