  • STEVE CRAM COMPLETE RACE LIST

    Happy New Year to one and all - hope somebody can help me out here. Does anybody have a complete race list for Steve Cram? I've got up to and including the LA Olympics in "Steve Cram - The Making of an Athlete" by Roger Tames but would love to get hold of the rest of his career up to 1993. Thanks in advance!

    I'd like to know, just for statistics, what his 1500 time(& site) was in 1977. It was 3:42-something, and if under 3:42.36 it would be a "verifiable" age-16 WR.
