Julius Yego: My You Tube training explained

Kenya's Julius Yego explains just how watching the greats of the sport on You Tube has inspired him to World gold in Bejing.
He threw 92.72m - a Commonwealth record to win the competition by nearly four metres.
Speaking on Sportsworld at he Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, he told Lee James it's true he initially hoped to join the ranks of famous Kenyan runners, but has improved his technique after watching videos of Jan Zelezny of the Czech Republic and Norwegian Andreas Thorkildsen, who both won Olympic and world titles.
