Reviews
"This book is a fascinating insight into the lives of two exceptional runners and will interest both people who remember the event in 1984 when their lives collided, as well as anyone interested in competitive running."--Danielle Sellwood, Sport Sister, "A fascinating story . . . . Skillfully written with much truth and compassion."--Julian Richfield, Cape Times, "The stories of these two female runners and the one moment that will link the two of them together forever make for a great read."-- Window Into Books, "Kyle Keiderling's Olympic Collision brings together the incredible backstory, the race-day tension, and the post-event fallout in a compelling narrative."--Amby Burfoot, Boston Marathon winner (1968), contributing editor to Runner's World , and author of First Ladies of Running, "A fascinating story . . . . Skilfully written with much truth and compassion."--Julian Richfield, Cape Times, " Olympic Collision is absolutely a perfect book that I am going to rave and recommend to one and all."-- Underrated Reads, " Olympic Collision  is absolutely a perfect book that I am going to rave and recommend to one and all."-- Underrated Reads, "Keiderling provides insight into how the sports machine works and particularly into how athletes remember long-ago events on the field--for they remain fresh to both Decker and Budd, each of whom went on to endure other travails off the track. A sprint down Memory Lane for fans of sports history, particularly sports controversies."-- Kirkus, "A fascinating look behind-the-scenes at one of sport's most shocking incidents. A tale of greed, human nature, and how it affected two amazingly talented runners."--Marty Liquori, ABC analyst for the 1984 Olympics and former number one in the world in mile and five-thousand-meter races, "An immensely readable and elegantly written account of the lives and careers of two iconic women distance runners who will always be remembered for their dramatic collision at the Los Angeles Olympics. The penetrating insights it provides into the murky world of politics, illegal drug use, and money in track and field in the 1980s will be of interest well beyond just the running community."--Richard Mayer, South African athletics writer and historian, "Kyle Keiderling has a style of writing that will leave you captivated. His book provides incredible depth beyond one historical Olympic moment."--Joan Hansen, three-thousand-meter finalist in the 1984 Olympics, "Kyle Keiderling's Olympic Collision brings together the incredible backstory, the race-day tension, and the post-event fallout in a compelling narrative."--Amby Burfoot, Boston Marathon winner (1968), contributing editor to Runner's World , and author of First Ladies of Running  , "A fascinating look behind-the-scenes at one of sport's most shocking incidents.

A sprint down Memory Lane for fans of sports history, particularly sports controversies.' Kirkus Reviews 'This is a must-read for any track fan, for its comprehensive history of these two talented, spirited young ladies coming of age at the start of the women's running boom, given opportunities their parents did not have, and that all the young ladies today in high school and college are able to take advantage of.' Olympic Collision 'This book is a fascinating insight into the lives of two exceptional runners and will interest both people who remember the event in 1984 when their lives collided, as well as anyone interested in competitive running.'

  • Fantastic!!!!

    I always wondered what happened after they had that unfortunate accident at the 1984 Olympic 3000M race. Great book! Detailed look at how both of their lives turned out.
