The first African-American male to represent the US at the Summer Olympics in the sport of rowing.  Aquil Abdullah has been “the first” and “the only” for most of his time in the sport of rowing. The only Black kid on his rowing team throughout high school and college. The first Black man to win the Diamond Sculls race at the Henley Regatta and the first to qualify for the Olympics. Aquil signed up for rowing because he wanted to “goof-off” during the last semester of his senior year at Woodrow Wilson High School, the only public school in DC with a rowing program. He quickly realized that rowing was HARD and he enjoyed the challenge. In just a few short months he made it onto the Varsity boat. He got the attention of the George Washington University Rowing coach setting in motion a journey that led him to the Olympics.  But not without grit, hard work, and hustle. You can expect to hear: - What it takes to make it to the highest level - Living in motels and sleeping on sofas as an Amateur pursuing the dream - Missing qualification for the 2000 Summer Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia by 0.33 of a second - Battling back from qualification heartbreak  - Opening himself up to new opportunities that led him to the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens - What the Olympics After Party is like  - Finding his dream job as a Software Engineer and Rowing Instructor at Hydrow Connect with us: Aquil Abdullah, OLY @fitnessincolor_ @sidbap @PYNRS_

Laura Gamesmaker London 2012 As the Rio Olympics get under way, Sue caught up with Laura, a gamesmaker from London 2012 to talk about her experiences. London 2012 volunteers were called ‘Games Makers', as they helped to make the Games happen. The Games Maker recruitment process began in September 2010, with the London 2012 Organising Committee receiving more than 240,000 applications. Up to 70,000 people were chosen to become Games Makers and they took on a wide variety of roles across the Olympic venues during the Games: from welcoming visitors to transporting athletes, helping out behind the scenes in the Technology team and making sure the results get displayed as quickly and accurately as possible. "Volunteers are the lifeblood of the Olympic Games and part of the DNA of thousands of people in this country,” said Sebastian Coe, Chair of the London 2012 Organising Committee, when the volunteer programme was launched. “The 1948 Olympic Games in London saw the birth of the Games volunteer programme, and we are determined that London 2012 will be a wonderful opportunity for tens of thousands of people to help deliver the most spectacular Games ever.” The volunteers were easy to spot during the Games thanks to their distinctive uniforms, which drew on British heritage in shades of regal purple and poppy red. They were influenced by the historic Grenadier Guards uniform and British sporting heritage including the London 1948 Games, the Wimbledon tennis championships and the Henley Regatta. “The volunteers are the face of the Games and they will turn what could be a good Games, into a great Games,” said Paul Deighton, London 2012 CEO, when the uniforms were unveiled. “They will be high profile in London and in our venues across the UK at Games time and so it's important they look the part. “Delivering the Games is hard work and so the uniform needs to be functional, however we also want our teams to wear it with pride.” Volunteers also play an integral role in the Olympic Movement, with each IOC member representing the IOC in a voluntary capacity.

In a special one-on-one episode of Talking Events, James Anderson, commercial director of Arena Group, talks about the rich history of the company and the way it has evolved to become one of the biggest names in the modern event industry. From its beginnings in 1765 as a sail and rope maker – including supplying the hangman ropes for the tower of London – Arena Group now works in some of the UK’s most prestigious locations, including the Henley Regatta, Lord’s Cricket Ground and Twickenham. During the conversation, James highlights why supplementing permanent venues with temporary structures makes financial sense, and also how it may help venues to research and develop their long-term infrastructure. “Britain is known for its overlay industry”, James told the podcast. “By that, we mean anything that can be put in on a temporary basis to facilitate major events, be they sporting, music or otherwise. Our experience has taught us how to do things to amazing standards, which has led to us working across the world and continuing to develop the global reputation that many UK suppliers have.” He also looks at how the internal fit-out of structures has had to adapt to cope with the modern demands of the end-user, and how open spaces are being transformed in to event venues by the level of expertise now available in the structure industry.
