Italian sprint legend Pietro Mennea dead, one of the myths of world sport. Someone wrote that we should not need myths, I am personally convinced of the contrary. Myths are for me the land to which safe return when I feel uncertain. Are those thoughts that you do not have every day, because it would be like wasting them, but they are there when you are in difficult times and give you the conviction to continue. It’s clear that everybody represents them in his/her own way but they have become legends for their intrinsic characteristics of dedication, toughness, strength, the absolute idea of being able to be as you wish. Of course, they reached what they want, as it was for Mennea unforgettable victories and a stunning record on 200m. An absolute life, a real positive Blade Runner.
