About Linford Christie OBE

1992 Barcelona Olympics 100m Gold Medalist
First European to run 100m under ten seconds
Coached Olympic and Commonwealth medalists
When it comes to the 100m, Linford Christie is undoubtedly Europe's greatest ever star to grace the track.

At the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, while Freddie Mercury showed he had the pipes to compete with Montserrat Caballé, Linford demonstrated that he was in a league of his own by winning gold in the 100m.

Throughout his international career spanning seventeen years, Linford represented his country in over 60 competitions and earned more major championship medals (a staggering 23, in case you were wondering) than any other British sprinter.

Linford holds the distinction of being the only British athlete to have won gold medals in the 100m at all four major competitions, and he was the first European to run a sub-ten-second time.

His fastest time of 9.87 seconds, achieved when he triumphed at the 1993 World Championship in Stuttgart, still stands as the European record.

Even after retiring from athletics, Linford's success has continued in his coaching role, where he has guided numerous top athletes to victory, including Olympic medalists Darren Campbell, Katharine Merry, Mark Lewis Francis, and Commonwealth Gold Medalist Laura Turner.

Linford is not only super quick and super inspirational, but he is also eager to provide the motivation that you might need to achieve your goals.
