Roger Bannister ran the first sub-four minute mile.

I'm assuming that 60 years ago today he also dropped dead.

Amazingly he is still alive

Wonder when someone will break the 3:40 barrier

I know one xenophobic, breast milk lovin, Bloomin' Onion eatin, struggles to support his weight while walking let alone running SOB who won't be breaking it.

Excellent photo of KG in action!

Roger Bannister ran the first sub-four minute mile.

Nice fedora, rain coat and black glasses to go along with his notepad!

Hey, that is interesting.
I ran a 5 minute mile in Cross Country at Springfield H.S.(Delco) in 1969.
But of course, others ran much better.
