And read a this profile of Reggie Snowden HERE.
Here's an extract:
My first Gay Games attended was New York in 1994. I was only 29 and didn’t know what to expect. All I knew was that I was 29 in a category of 18 to 29. I trained hard with the San Francisco Track and Field club coached by the late, great Frank Demby. As a team, we achieved much more than I could ever imagine. We trained a few days a week and formed great relay teams and had a great time in preparation.
When I arrived in New York, I ended up competing in the 110 hurdles, 400-meter hurdles, triple jump, long jump, 4X100 relay and 4X400 relay. Besides winning the gold in both hurdle events combined with the triple jump and 4X100, I met great participants from the Czech Republic, Switzerland, Stockholm and Texas. Meeting other gay athletes from around the world who shared the same ideas of wellness, competition and a healthy lifestyle of taking care of ourselves was a general theme.
