Guest Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Absolutely is a great, I'm very into my running and whilst his 4 minute record has been beaten by some distance today to be the first person to run sub 4 minutes is a remarkable achievement, no woman infact has managed it still some 64 years afterwards. RIP Sir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveRolaves Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 A great athlete who broke the sub 4 minute mile in 1954. I was about 15 and at school in 1959 and used to run the mile around 4 laps of the track. I think that the school record holder did it in about 4 minutes 50 seconds which was well behind the record set by Sir Roger. May he rest in Peace.

Selsie Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 First , one and only, cant be taken away,. No special trainers, diets, designer running shoes, just guts and determination to prove a point. RIP Sir Roger, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
