Malcolm Gladwell
That's him on the right! Malcolm used to compete in competitive track and field before he set his eyes on storytelling. Even with his full-time job at The New Yorker, he still finds time to run. "I just like the purity of it," he once said. "I like the fact that it doesn't have the rules and refs, the owners and teams, fancy uniforms and equipment, and all the other things that have weighed down so much modern sport."
