What do you love the most about shot put?

Question

Darrell Hill · Answer

Ah, my first question. What do I love most about the shot put? Honestly, this answer is two part. For me, growing up, playing a lot of team sports, I played football, I played basketball. Shot put for me was always that thing that allowed me to be a true individual. I didn't have to rely on 10 other people to do their job. I didn't have to rely on somebody else to pass me the ball. If I went out and I studied and I did my work and I worked hard, I was able to see that direct correlation translate over into my results. And that type of small thing like that really drove me nuts in a positive way. It really allowed me to really want to work hard. The other side of it is, shot put to me is a true representation of the combination of speed, power, and analytics. I'm a big stats nerd so I go back and watch a lot of film. So that combination of being able to be analytical and be powerful and be fast, that's what shot put is to me and that's why I love it.
