MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Damian Warner has been on a relentless quest to be the best decathlete in history for more than a decade and his Olympic gold medal in Tokyo was just one goal ticked off along the way.
After a heartbreaking hamstring injury knocked him out of the world championships last July, the 33-year-old Canadian - who this weekend will look to extend his record of victories at Hypo-Meeting in Gotzis, Austria to seven - and coach Gar Leyshon believe the world record is well within reach. It might take a "perfect decathlon" to get it.
