Black days

I remember, when I took Robbie to see what were still called the AAA Championships in Birmingham in 2002, how emotional it was.



The three years that had preceeded it were extremely challenging but he was thrilled to be photographed with some of the stars of the era. Best of all was Olympic silver medallist Roger Black (above) who at that time was working for the BBC.



Little did we think that one of the photos that we took, with Phillips Idowu, would end up a rank higher.



What can you say about a man who sets a personal best time to win a world championship? The same as we said 7 years ago. "Thanks Phillips".
