EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the year 1989, where we witness the determined spirit of Paul Breed, a Coventry-based New Zealand athlete and middle-distance runner. The image captures a specially arranged race at Kirby Corner Road Athletics Track, as Paul strives to achieve the qualifying time for the highly anticipated 1990 Commonwealth Games in his homeland of Auckland. The intensity on Paul's face is palpable as he pushes himself to his limits, every muscle straining with each powerful stride. It is evident that this race holds immense significance for him - an opportunity not only to represent his country but also to showcase his exceptional talent on an international stage. Unfortunately, fate was not entirely on Paul's side that day. Despite giving it everything he had, he missed the qualifying time by a mere four tenths of a second. However, undeterred by this setback, our resilient athlete remains resolute in his pursuit of success. With unwavering determination burning within him like an unquenchable flame, Paul vows to try again at Crystal Palace next week. This snapshot freezes a pivotal moment in his journey towards achieving greatness and serves as a testament to the indomitable human spirit that drives athletes like him. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph captured by Coventry Telegraph Archive during one fateful autumn day in September 1989, we cannot help but be inspired by Paul Breed's unwavering passion and relentless drive towards realizing his dreams.
