    51.7 in 400 hurdles 1932.... would have won this past weekend.... although I think the conditions in LA would have been more balmy

    Was only reading about him this morning.

    I hope at 93 I'm able to jog 500 yards.

    May he Rest In Peace.

    Sport and the Olympics were very different in his era. Sport meant sport and every medal winner did not immediately have a question mark or suspicion over them as will be the case over the coming weeks.
