Gary Reed 800m

[@tjmckenzie4048]

This is why I think Gary was the greatest middle distance runner ever produced from Canada. He could be competitive in any type of race, fast or slow. He could compete with and beat anybody. Even thought Kevin Sullivan and Graham Hood were both outstanding, they had to compete against such loaded fields at the Worlds and Olympics and never really had a shot at medalling. Reed almost won the 07 Worlds and was .29 from winning the gold in Beijing.
