 Pounding the treadmill in a puddle of his own sweat is Phil Sessman, an athlete in every sense. Short dark hair, determined brown eyes, and barely an inch of fat on him. Yeah, I'm really excited. It's so far beyond what I thought I'd achieve in this sport. I'm 31 years old, I've worked really hard for a long time at this, and yeah, it's an absolute thrill to be thinking in two months' time I'll be lining up with the world's best in Paris.
