“Be passionate about what you do.”
In this episode, Allison interviews Robert Esmie. Robert Esmie is a 4x100 Relay Olympic Gold Medalist, Founder Airblastoff Sports, and Co-Founder Critiq.com. In the only Olympic race he ever ran, Robert Esmie became an Olympic champion. He was the lead off runner of the gold medal winning Canadian 4x100m relay team at Atlanta 1996 with Glenroy Gilbert, Bruny Surin and 100m Olympic champion Donovan Bailey. Replacing an injured Carlton Chambers who ran in the first two rounds, Esmie showed up to the Olympic relay final with the words “Relay Blast Off” shaved into his head in an attempt to relax his team mates and shut down the partisan crowd, while wearing a t-shirt that said “Relax. You’ve been erased” in hopes that he would get the mental advantage over American lead off runner Jon Drummond – which he did when he caught him reading his t-shirt. Despite being in a minor traffic accident enroute to the stadium and the relay final being delayed by a disqualification, Esmie ran the race of his life.
Robert and Allison discuss his mindset leading up to the Olympics from the day he first had the vision to be an Olympic Gold Medal runner to the day he received the Olympic Gold Medal. There are so many ways to describe this interview: inspiring, uplifting and empowering in so many ways.
