Farhan Lalji got what he asked for and it was even better than he imagined.
Last year, knowing the assignments for the 2012 Summer Olympic Games were coming up, Lalji told his bosses at TSN that if they were going to send him, the New Westminster resident had just one request. He wanted athletics, and no other.
“I kind of felt, if I wasn’t going it was no problem it just meant more time with the family, but if I was to go that’s what I wanted to do,” said Lalji upon his return from London this week. “It’s the signature event at the Olympics. No one ever got back to me, but when the list of assignments came down there it was.”
It meant a lot of work. Lalji had to get to know the backgrounds of 2,500 athletes in 45 different events. The heavy-duty homework was worth it.
