Apolo Ohno, From Sports Legend To Businessman

American sporting legend Apolo Ohno spent his early life as a swimmer. He realized from an early age he had a natural ability for various sports, and at the age of twelve he became the Washington state swimming champion for his age category. However despite being a talented swimmer, he eventually changed hobbies to focus on his true love, inline speed skating. This was a sport he had fallen I love with earlier in life, and it was to prove a very practical career move, as by the year 2010, he was competing in the winter Olympics, where he won a gold medal for the United States. After reaching this high point, he made the surprise move of deciding to quit competing professionally, and he officially retired from the sport, at which point he could easily have lived comfortable and happily ever after in a life of obscurity. However, this was not to be the end for Apolo Ohno. Along with his sporting ambitions, he had always had a strong desire to become involved in the business world; some people are naturally drawn to high risk, high reward activities, like professional sports and business, and Apolo Ohno is one of them. He went on to found a company by the name of Allysian Sciences. 

The idea behind the company had come to him while he was competing professionally; he had realized quite early on that his performance on a given day could be quite drastically affected by his mental condition. Even if he was in perfect shape, sometimes he didn’t perform as well as he knew he could due to feeling mentally sluggish, over anxious or under confident. He realized that if there were some kind of supplement that could combat this kind of mental activity without affecting the physicality or muscular structure of the body, it could be an enormous hit. Upon his retirement, he set about his new mission, and hired scores of the best scientists, doctors and sports experts to develop and perfect his new idea. It took five years of extensive research and hard work, but in early 2015 the company finally started producing and releasing its miracle product, which has so far taken the world of athletics by storm. Athletes left right and center are snapping up his supplement, and Ohno is deeply proud of what he has achieved.
