Abstract
- The article focuses on 19-year-old runner Jim Ryun of Kansas. According to the author, Ryun's goal is not to break Michel Jazy's world record of 3:53:6 but he is out to fracture the mythical 3:50 mile. His coach, Bob Timmons, says Ryun hates any talk of records or goals because for him goals are very private things. He was born James Ronald Ryun and his home city is Wichita. When he was a young boy, he almost died of peritonitis.
