Front Street Mile Winner Thie At Olympics
[Written by Stephen Wright]
Two-times Front Street Mile winner James Thie is among the familiar faces in Paris, with the Welshman helping coach Team Great Britain’s distance runners.
Thie, who won the elite men’s race in 2003 and 2004, also coaches Bermuda’s top middle-distance runner, Dage Minors, who teamed up with Thie in September last year.
Minors, 28, spent several months this year working with Thie at the Cardiff Metropolitan University in Wales, where he is the performance director for athletics.
