Four-Time Olympic Gold Medalist Michael Johnson Is In Saudi And The Photos Of His Trip Are Incredible

Avatar

The celebrated American sprinter, Michael Johnson, is on his first trip to Saudi and by the looks of it he loves it.

Johnson is renowned for his four Olympic and eight World Championships gold medals.

He was also the world record holder for being the fastest man in the 200m and 400m races.

He recently shared a series of photos on his Twitter account and used the Qiddiya hashtag. This suggests that he is perhaps somewhere close to where the multi-billion dollar entertainment city, Qiddiya, is being built. The landscape captured in his photos is breathtaking.

He was recently in neighboring Dubai where he opened a performance training and fitness center.

Here he is with Saudi Arabia’s very own Olympian, Hadi Al Somaily, who won silver in the 400 m hurdles event in the Sydney Olympics.
