I sometimes think that running has given me a glimpse of the greatest freedom a man can ever know, because it results in the simultaneous liberation of both mind and body……The runner does not know why he runs. He only knows that he must run……We run, not because we think it is doing us good, but because we enjoy it and cannot help ourselves.
Roger Bannister
The morning of May 6, 1954, Roger did the impossible. He broke the 4-minute mile barrier, and set a new world record in 3:59.6
The current world record is 3:43.13 set in 1999.
