Midnight Caller Posted July 16, 2023 Author Share Posted July 16, 2023 No takers? The race popped up on YouTube. You can take a wild guess at the time, where they ran splits of 52/400m🔥 and something like 1.42/800m🔥 Race was in your backyard and the winner was a well known Kenyan runner of the 80's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And John Walker (a fantastic Nz runner in the 70's) was the first to break the 3.50 mile mark. Some schmuck from Africa beat him at the Christchurch commonwealth games annoyingly. But he got Olympic Gold to make up for it . and who doesn't love a bit of 'Johnny Walker' to celebrate that ?? 😄🥇 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
