Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Hwang Young-cho (born March 22, 1970 in Samcheok, Gangwon-do, South Korea) is a former South Korean athlete, winner of the marathon race at the 1992 Summer Olympics and 1994 Asian Games. Born in Samcheok, South Korea, Hwang was a promising track athlete in his junior years, but after his first marathon in 1991, which he won, decided to specialize to marathon. The Barcelona Olympic marathon was only fourth of his career. He had won two and placed second on his three previous marathon competitions. In Barcelona, Hwang was in the leading pack from the start, but in a slowly run race, this group still numbered thirty runners at the halfway mark. However, runners gradually lost contact with the leaders in the second half of the race, until at 35 km, only Hwang and Koichi Morishita from Japan remained. They had quite a memorable struggle, until Hwang broke free after 40 km to win a gold medal.
