Re: who am I? 60s TRIVIA

His son developed into a pretty good distance runner too. I think he made a few XC state meets and went once or twice for track too.

Since Satch is probably old and has gone to bed somewhere, and I "knew " the answer from the get-go, I'll now say it:

Rob ( Robin )Lingle is correct !

Yep, I know it alright, but as said before "I was there (almost)" so I'll stay mum.

But I too recall the article in NY Times the day after he won 2 CC RACES IN ONE DAY at Van Cortlandt Park... article included a picture of him and his coach. His conference meet was in the morning, no sweat at all, but the Eastern States meet in the afternoon had all the big hitters.... and he won it too.

Cool question satch, it will be neato if anyone gets it ( other than me).

I think I know but I have an unfair advantage of growing up in the immediate area, so I will withhold my answer.
