Peter Snell

Re: Peter Snell

Typo. Obviously it was the 4 X 880 Relay.Tom Murphy and Jack Yerman ran the other two legs.

Re: Peter Snell

Wrong runner! I led off and Jerry Siebert anchored the 2 x 880 relay in England after the 1960 Olympics.

So we can assume the brother is Tom Dooley. I should pay attention to those PBS pledge drives more often.

I finally had an excuse to register as no one else has answered Gary Hill's HSers vs Peter Snell question:

Norm Trerise

Usually, the trivia answerers are too fast for me.

Re: Peter Snell

Canadian Ducks include Harry Jerome, Art Boileau, Peter Spir (a miler no less).

What about Bruce Mortenson? But he was from Minnesota I believe.

Re: Peter Snell

Hey, back to my question.... again! Nobody can come up with who the first high schooler was to beat Snell in '65?

Hints you already have: he went on to become Roscoe Divine's teammate at Oregon, and the Kingston Trio knew his brother.

Here's another: he's Canadian.

Re: Peter Snell

I picked up a copy of the book on eBay (signed copy) for $31

and as for senior runners, Snell is completing a book on maintaining fitness through advancing age.

Re: Peter Snell

Hmmmmm, might that be me?
