There was a miler named ( I think) Charlie CHRISTMAS...

Unlike Satch's joking post, I am serious about mine, and posted it before I saw his.

Re: Xmas Trivia Question

Yes, Charlie Christmas of Abilene Christian, in the late '60s. (We actually once compiled the alpha leaders for the mile and couldn't find ANYBODY with an X who had ever run a mile--the Christmas pun courtesy of Ed Fox)

Malcolm X ran the mile in high school

Re: Xmas Trivia Question

Even though the question's been answered...the answer to the literal question (or best answer I could find) is...
Sibusiso Xaba from South Africa who ran a 14:29.29 5k in 1998

soo either he's run a mile before or we just guess that his 5k split mile is the fastest ever for someone with an X last name
