DOUBLES—SECOND ROUND GARY HERSHORN/REUTERS “Whenit’s something you really love doing you don’t want to stop,” said Allen Johnson, “but I’m accepting of the decision to retire.” BY CARL LITTLE
Hurdling into retirement Olympic gold medalist Johnson
It is fitting that Allen John-
son, an Olympic gold medalist, chose the 110-meter hurdles as his specialty. He has taken the challenge of getting over obsta- cles and literally turned it into a game. Johnson was born legally
blind in his left eye, which im- pairs his depth perception. He’s unable to pour water into a glass without holding the glass in one hand, but he managed to fling himself over 10 42-inch barriers in less than 13 seconds. “The body adapts and I guess
my body found ways to compen- sate,” he says. The D.C. native has pieced
together one of the legendary careers in track and field. He won Olympic gold in 1996, owns a record four world outdoor championshipsandthree indoor titlesandbroke themagic13-sec- ondbarrier 11 times in his career, morethananyoneelse in history. Johnson announced his re-
tirement lastmonthat 39, an age when most high hurdlers have long since hung up their spikes. Sylvanues Hepburn, John-
son’s coach since 2000, said Johnson’s technique, even more than his foot speed, allowed him to last so long. Instructors at coaches’ clinics show film of Johnsonwhentheywanttomod- el impeccable form. Johnson “reinvented the
event,” Hepburn says. “When he was 34, 35, he was still running under 13 seconds. There was no other hurdler doing that at that age. I don’t know where I’m going to find another athlete like that.” On July 10, Johnson stood in
front of a crowd of about 7,000 at a meet in England and said his body, in its third decade as a pro, could no longer handle the de- mands of the high hurdles. The unofficial endcamethree
days earlier in Scotland. During warm-ups, Johnson pulled up, then grabbed for his thigh. The strain he felt in his left quadri- ceps was enough to keep him from racing. He knew then the time had come to call it quits.
looking to stay in sport as coach, agent Retired life, just a few weeks
old, has been a mixed bag. While he misses competing, he is thrilled to have more time to watch his daughter, Tristine, blossom in the sport. The 18- year-old was nearly 4 when Johnson took his victory lap around the Olympic stadium with her in his arms. This fall, Tristine will compete as a fresh- man at North Carolina, her fa- ther’s alma mater. Johnson also has started taking steps toward his next career as a coach and agent. “When it’s something you
really love doing you don’t want to stop, but I’m accepting of the decision to retire,” Johnson said fromhishomeinSouthCarolina. “It’s a lot easier now to be with my family,andI think Ihave a lot that I can give the young ath- letes.” The man who won gold in
Atlanta in 12.92 seconds — an Olympic record at the time and just .01 of a second shy of the then-world record — broke 13 seconds for the last time 10 years later, winning at the 2006World Cup in Athens. “The only thing I regret for
him is he never broke the world record,” Bob Digby, who coached Johnson while he was a student at Lake Braddock, said. “He was close so many times. He danced all around it.”
Slow to get started For a world-class athlete,
Johnson needed some time to jump-start his career.He starred as a multi-event athlete for Lake Braddock in the late 1980s, win- ning several state titles, but the nation’s top college programs didn’t consider him a can’t-miss recruit. He went on to North Carolina, not a juggernaut in the sport,andwonthe 55-meter hur- dles at theNCAAindoor champi- onships. He had a third-place finish outdoors. Even after an impressive col- lege career he was the guy who
nobody wanted. Johnson was sometimes turned away from races on the European pro cir- cuit hours before they were sup- posed to start. The relative un- known was nixed in favor of athletes whom meet directors considered bigger draws. Big-name sponsors weren’t
flocking to him either. After muchpleadingbyhisagent,Nike gave Johnson gear to wear but refused to sign him to a contract. Johnson says it was because they thought, at 5 feet 10 and 165 pounds, he was too small. Even after finding global suc-
cess, Johnson stayed connected to home. In 1996, the track at Lake Braddock was peppered with so many potholes that the school couldn’t host meets. Johnson, fresh off his Olympic victory, returned to Burke to start the process of building a newone. On a cool night after a foot-
ball game, Johnson signed near- ly 1,500 T-shirts. He and his mother, Saundra Johnson- Smith, got other Olympians such as Michael Johnson and Gail Devers to donate signed pictures and other memorabilia for a si- lent auction that raised more than $5,000. Johnsonmatched it with $5,000 of his own and got companies such as Nike and Oakley to contribute. U.S. Track and Field donated $5,000 worth of hurdles. Lake Braddock raised rough-
ly half of the $100,000 it needed. Fairfax County paid the rest. Lake Braddock hosted the first Allen Johnson Invitational on its brand new track in the spring of 1998. Since its installation, the Bruins have won a combined 10 boys’ and girls’ region titles. Partly because of his work in
restoring the track, Johnson was named the 1999USATF VisaHu- manitarian of the Year. “I used the hell out of this
guy,” Digby said, laughing. “Ev- ery time I needed him, he’d come.”

Coping with injuries Doing too much led to John-
son’s injuries on the track. As a lanky high schooler, leaping around practices while wearing an Eric Dickerson jersey and big, round glasses, Johnson partici- pated in nearly everything. In 1988, when Lake Braddock won the Virginia AAA indoor state championship, he competed in the long jump, triple jump, high jump and 55 hurdles. “When you competed at our
program, we went out to win,” Digby said. “Unfortunately, when you’ve got a guy like Allen who’s going to get you a lot of points, he’d say put me in as much stuff as you can so we can win. Allen was as much a team player as anyone. “That was so early in my
coaching career that I probably didn’t know how to take care of kids’ injuries as well as I did in the end.” Injuries dogged Johnson’s
early years as a pro, but in those days he snapped back quickly. Duringthe last fewyears,howev- er,hespentmoretimerecuperat- ing than training. Johnson tore a tendon in his
ankle in 2008 that required sur- gery. He spent the better part of last year recovering. InMay, despite dealingwitha
sore Achilles’ tendon and strained calf muscle, Johnson stepped onto the track in Shang- hai for his first meet of the 2010 outdoor season. He finished in 13.65, one of the slowest times of his career. The voices of doctors and a
fewfriendswhowere tellinghim it was time to retire looped in- side his head as he limped away from the finish line. Said Johnson: “Even when
everybody’s telling you thatmay- be it’s time [to quit], you say ‘I’m different. I’m not a regular per- son. I can do things that even great athletes can’t do.’ Then reality steps in. “I think I might’ve stayed too
long, but I needed toknowit was really over. I was going to get every ounce out of myself. I did that.”
