With just under one week to the 60th Anniversary of the breaking of the 4 minute mile barrier by Sir Roger Bannister and our Mile Dash Challenge to celebrate this historical event..6th May.
The Sunday Times newspaper reporter, Max Davidson, met up with the now eighty five year young Sir Roger Bannister and his daughter Erin Bannister. He wrote an in-depth article on his life during and after this mile breaking record back in May 6th 1954.

ERIN BANNISTER"You could say I had two fathers: the doctor with his black bag, and the world-famous athlete. And for as long as I can remember, people have recognised him and asked him about four-minute mile. But his fame was never an embarrasment, just a sourse of great pride."
