Coe v Ovett Christmas competition

Double Olympic 1500m champion Lord Sebastian Coe recalls his Christmas Day rivalry with Steve Ovett from almost 40 years ago. Coe remembers going out on a training run inspired by the thought that fellow Brit Ovett would also be pounding the streets in preparation for the 1980 Moscow Olympics.
