Sobre este áudio
Zero regrets. It's a philosophy not just about sport but about life. School, business, academics, love - anything and everything. It's complicated and yet not. You have to figure out who it is you want to be. Not what you want to be - but who. There has to be a vision, a dream, a plan. Then you chase that with everything you've got.
Over three consecutive Olympic games, Apolo Ohno has come to symbolize the very best of the competitive spirit - remaining equally gracious in victory and defeat, always striving to improve his performance, and appreciating the value of the hard work of training as much as any reward it might bring. In Zero Regrets, Apolo shares the inspiring personal story behind his remarkable success, as well as the hard-won truths and strategies he has discovered in good times and bad.
Raised by his single father, an immigrant from Japan who often worked 12-hour days, the young Apolo found it difficult to balance his enormous natural gifts as an athlete with an admittedly wild, rebellious streak. After making a name for himself as a promising young speed skater, his career was almost over before it began when his lack of preparation caused him to finish last at the U.S. Olympic trials in 1998. A life-changing week of solitary soul-searching at the age of 15 led him to recommit himself to his training, and at the 1999 world junior championships he won first place overall - one of the most remarkable turnarounds in sports history. From that moment on, the world of speed skating had a new champion and Apolo was on his way to legendary status.
Much more than an account of races won and lost, Apolo shares his secrets for achieving total focus and mental toughness, secrets that can be applied in situations well beyond sports.
