Whether it was his gold chains or gold kicks, Michael Johnson knew how to stunt on the competition. And it worked well in his favor that with the gold accessories, came gold medals. The Texas native is considered to be one of the greatest track athletes ever.
Despite being retired for 16 years, Johnson is still a fixture at Nike, and the Swoosh recently gave us a crash course on what it's like to train as an Olympic athlete at the Michael Johnson Performance center in Dallas, Texas. This was a part of Nike's eight-week Limitless Potential Program that hopes to transform a select group of people into top-tier athletes.
During our visit, we spoke with Michael Johnson about his time as an Olympic athlete and whether or not he has a "lifetime deal" with Nike. Check out the interview in the video above.
