Kenyan runner Abel Mutai was only a few meters from the finish line, but got confused with the signs and stopped, thinking he had finished the race. A Spanish man, Ivan Fernandez, was right behind him and, realizing what was going on, started shouting to the Kenyan to keep running. Mutai did not know Spanish and did not understand.
Realizing what was going on, Fernandez pushed Mutai to victory. A reporter asked Ivan, "Why did you do this?" Ivan replied, "My dream is that one day we can have some sort of community life where we push ourselves and help each other win." The reporter insisted "But why did you let the Kenyan win?" Ivan replied, "I didn't let him win, he was going to win. The race was his."
The reporter insisted and asked again, "But you could have won!" Ivan looked at him and replied: "But what would be the merit of my victory? What would be the honor of this medal? What would my Mother think of it?" The values are transmitted from generation to generation. What values do we teach our children and how much do you inspire others to earn? Most of us take advantage of people's weaknesses instead of helping to strengthen them

Grand Canyon Rim-to-Rim History: Races Footraces were held hiking and running across the Grand Canyon rim-to-rim from 1970-1991 participated at times by more than 100 people.

50 years ago this month, Ted Corbitt, “the father of American ultrarunning” ran his lifetime most miles in a month with 1,002.5 miles at the age of 50. He was training to run the famed London-to-Brighton 52-mile race where he finished 2nd in September.

In October 1969, at age 50, Ted was invited to run his first 100-mile race, held on a track at Walton-on-Thames in England. The invitational race started at midnight with 16 runners in a brilliantly lit stadium.

The winner broke the world 100-mile record with 12:31. Ted finished in 3rd with a new American Record, 13:33:06 He said the race “killed him a little.” It took him four months to find enthusiasm to go out on a long training run.
