by It’s Billy Mills week!!
At the 1964 Olympics, he shocked the world and came from behind to win the gold medal in the 10k race. At the time, he set a world record of 28 minutes, 24.4 seconds and is still the only American to ever win a gold medal in the 10k event. His win was an upset that has been called the second greatest moment in Olympic history.
October 14, 2014 is the official anniversary date – congratulate Billy today!
Congratulations again from your biggest fans ever since Haskell! You’re always so gracious when we see each other every ten years or so. And you’ so nice to my extended family. Thank you for being an inspiration to all.
