In 1920, at the Antwerp Olympics, Paavo Nnurmi known as the 'Flying Finn' was pitted against a Frenchman Joseph Guillemot in the 5000 metres. Paavo Nurmi lost the race by five seconds. That was the only long-distance running event he lost in the next eight years. Nurmi displayed single-minded determination to win. For years he subjected himself to endurance training in the forest of his native Finland.
