Let's give a Sonny Side of Sports birthday salute to Morocco's 1984 Olympic champion Said Aouita, who was born on November 2, 1959. On Tuesday's show, Sonny recognizes Aouita as the only athlete in history to have won Olympic medals at both 800m and 5,000m. Aouita won gold at 5,000m at the 1984 Los Angeles Games and he won a bronze medal at 800m at the 1988 Seoul Olympics. Also on the program, Sonny will have news about 2021 Olympic 5,000m champion Joshua Cheptegei of Uganda, plus much more.
