Me and Carl

Today the IAAF World Indoor Championships starts. Three days of wonderful track and field to enjoy. This time it takes place in Sopot, Poland.001

When Carl Lewis participated in the DN Galan back in 1989, I had the honor to measure his jumps.

Of course – this brings back memories from the time when track and field was a big part of my life. Not only from a viewers perspective, but from being a referee.

003This picture was taken at the Stockholm Stadion back in 1984. My sister is missing in the picture, but my parents and best friend is there along with two other referees from the time.

Now – let’s cheere on our Swedish team this weekend – and especially the ones from “my” team – Hammarby.
