Dave Wottle "The Throttle" Wins 1972 Olympic 800 Meters I was a sophomore cross-country runner in high school when Dave Wottle "The Throttle" (in the white cap) of the USA won the Olympic 800 Meters in probably one of the greatest come-from-behind races in Olympic history. That inspirational race, along with Frank Shorter's gold medal in the marathon, was probably the impetus behind the "running boom" in the USA which started soon after the 1972 Olympics.

Dave Wottle's Classic Comeback 800 Meter Gold Medal Performance at 1972 Olympics At the 1972 Munich Olympics, one of the greatest comeback performances in 800 meter race history occurred with the gold medal performance by American Dave Wottle.

Wottle was only 22 years old at the time. I vividly remember watching this rac
