Still Waters Posted January 31, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 31, 2017 A former Olympian has taken a day of rest to end a 52-year running streak of at least one mile every single day. Ron Hill, who competed at the Tokyo Olympics in 1964 and Munich in 1972, has put on his running shoes every day since 20 December 1964 - a total of 52 years and 39 days. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lancashire-38810882 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen my 80yr-old disabled mother sprint 20ft into her living room and leap onto her orthopaedic chair on hearing the Eastenders theme tune. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
