Beginning our 14th year and 1,200+ postings. A blog for athletes and fans of 20th century Track and Field culled from articles in sports journals of the day, original articles, book reviews, and commentaries from readers who lived and ran and coached in that era. We're equivalent to an Amer. Legion post of Track and Field but without cheap beer. You may contact us directly at irathermediate@gmail.com or write a comment below. George Brose, Courtenay, BC ed.

Paul Ebert, a former OU miler sent this to us.
Hi George, Paul Ebert here, At the Big Eight 1961 mile I finished 2nd to
Bill Dotson in 4:15.9 and there was a scramble, as I outkicked three
others for second place. After the race I was doubled over couldn't seem
to catch my breath (oxygen debt) Incidently Bill Dotson was Kansas Univ. first
sub 4:oo miler, It was 3:59 in 1962 His fastest (he finished 5th in race). enjoy your
track info. Paul Ebert 1958-1962 univ. okla.
