Athletics is perhaps the most democratic sport on Earth. It requires no expensive equipment—only a pair of shoes and a stretch of ground. This accessibility has allowed it to become a global equalizer, where a runner from a high-altitude village in Kenya can stand on the same podium as a pampered prodigy from a high-tech American training center.

We are constantly told we have reached the limits of human performance, yet those limits continue to crumble. From Roger Bannister’s four-minute mile to Usain Bolt’s lightning sprints, athletes prove that "impossible" is a moving target.
