Marathon

Bill Rodgers was one of my sports heroes growing up. Arguably the greatest road runner (as opposed to track runner) of all time, he was a four time winner of the New York City and Boston Marathons in the 70s and 80s.

He was at the top of his game in 1980 - an Olympic gold medal should have been the crowning achievement of his career.
