A sad day for distance running. Ted Corbitt has died. I have sent this article to many in the UC running community since he was a UC grad , even though he was not all that well treated while competing for the Bearcats. (more) |

Here
is a photo taken
at the quarter mile mark of the 1967 Big 8 Mile at Norman.
Notables in the race are Jim Ryun of
Kansas (lane

Laubert of OSU, and Allen Russell of Kansas (outside). I'm
on the inside
lane. |

I
want to recommend a great new track book called "The
Perfect Mile" by Neal Bascomb. It details the quest for
the 4 minute mile by Bannister, Landy, and Santee which will
be particularly intersting to those of us who were present
in those times and saw Santee run and had that great rivalry
with Bill Easton at Kansas. This book is currently being made
into a feature film such as was Seabiscuit last year. |
