Olympic Dreams on Stone Mountain

"Loyalty" and "Love" are tattooed across 23 year-old Shante' Brooks' chest. I've been seeing him a lot at the mountain, so today I decided to meet him, and just WOW. This Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn native has been training for the 2016 Olympics (400m and high jump) at Stone Mountain. He spends around 3 hours at a time running up and down the mountain (if I told you how many times you just wouldn't believe me) and sprinting back-and-forth on just the steepest inclines (one pictured with the railing). This track star is currently staying with his aunt in Stone Mountain but has big plans and many bike rides and races scheduled this summer. And, of course, here's to him succeeding in his Olympic dreams!
