It really hurt!"&nbsp; The doctors told him there was nothing they could do.&nbsp; But, Oerter persisted.&nbsp; So, the octors agreed to try a method where they froze the muscle, taped it, gave him ammonia capsules and then hoped for the best.</P> <P>Since each competitor gets to keep their best throw from the previous days preliminaries, Oerter could have stayed in the top eight without over extending himself.&nbsp; However, he said, "I just thought about the four years of hard work and those 1460 days. &nbsp;I did not want to cheat myself."&nbsp; Then during finals each competitor was allowed three throws.&nbsp; But because of the excruciating pain, Oerter decided to make the 2nd throw his last.&nbsp; "So," tells Oerter, "on that second throw I gave it everything I had."&nbsp; He thrw an Olympic record!</P> <P>When asked about the struggles experienced n training for the Olympics, Oerter replied, "Barriers in life happen all the time.&nbsp; You have got to step it up.&nbsp; If you back down, you never learn anything about life or yourself."&nbsp; Lter in his career Oerter did have Olympic coaches who would really push him but he always knew it was to make him better.</P> <P>Al Oerter was also a great success in the business world. Ironically, he worked with computers and advanced technology. Currently, Al Oerter is living i Colorado.&nbsp; And he is still a lean, but powerful 260 pound man.&nbsp; Although he is retired, he stays quite busy as a motivational speaker for a variety of corporations and as a husband, father, and grandfather.</P> <P>We thank Al for the opportunity to tell his story......................... </P>way on the field.&nbsp; The defenses on each team were loaded with talented players.&nbsp; Each team had healed from earlier injuries.&nbsp; The team who wanted it the most and who had prepared the best and the hardest during the year would walk away with the trophy and title of state champions.&nbsp; There was never any doubt that we wanted to do everything in ou power to win.&nbsp; We believe that first you must win in the weight room.&nbsp; When we had Dr. Greg Shepard to Alaska to speak to our players, he asked us if we wanted to win.&nbsp; The question is a touchy one.&nbsp; We had lost the last two state championships each by 5 points.&nbsp; By the weight room door is a sign--#11.&nbsp; Dr. Shepard asked the team on a scale of one to ten, how hard do you think you havdO>NP/yȆ \eH}鏕|{];TN6Oe5hxn F("IN1{\mtb'@ W)[vB6*7wį?1,$2ƴ H_ z a`98.@˅ϯG!T!ٜxbl:}k iL K$q8&c!~f-e Z]Br*_}"rN Gf;mҧ’QrYB} x~͖9UXF__ZKn.NGEE۰~tsVU' o4*¾'"{@dwӓ79 sG&?rO3}qaW(7<Ń"_GV[J:|rǟ4f+ ) G`r3u#YL%CϔtPi[!(-fNw|\((F'o٦O' U;pF9=UOW^h=o*%BE~?tH$~dCZҧ&mWiipͥ9rI ϖ?MpNF]H]щF {*k &z7-zѻj4g5 fb~;u#.n 'J^7If{6O}~?k l+bhԯ4PUiBU,3u$!O;5żpImsTFS'MMҤ$!j9D<?D-Djچ+4bMv@ &EwJ|"ZB[rG*6.F@)1淉mFfcpdWaOO؅"aJQJ"iZ ҡiw_<2)z j.cYG:ݝ%`i  /RiԜ7f]FpɴD& sb^ej:73 bׅhٓ,*Iy딽X#~n[R50[U2IJ[%WR"ds[*PZB6c,M.Ic;l7snD 3MxM,-=QS AnMY>h XiZ~zvo{\cI|x8= cs-Ec~V#Ct̐;R1ƛ0-!dU a&B䍨|8x,aI`; ȥ1MW̧K{_LF?_1O6tџWk۟yTXٳfIӜ[A{.Z MbJN:51F+#)HJ Vj7\?Ѭ zg]U~Y5KO5֍,vƦ ѭdI auKļE8)#bO%%i҂]Zbc`3;T-5knq( :P`=F^ٰ'~e#'[S34GsNJޕF K{`~&1R$~0G>Xu21]=E4ޔlw;vwlR_˭A|H{G{s좌𭒗4xHS2o2XԳq*'/Lr 5)*OMso5y6S#cnn\Wi"'OOt58jKo/]?(tO@|jS M *TeRÕURt?#6[O^=M$13|JlqLICjK7t<!l'z~
