Maurice Smith, Adams State grad.
Among other efforts, won the Pre Classic Mile in early '90's (3:57 I believe).

Originally posted by bfVery unofficially, it would be the fabled 3:58 by "Big Hawk", at Ft.Sydney,Neb. in 1877. Short track, probably. Or bs...
Big Hawk, perhaps :?:
Possibly, the mark has never been ratified because the sabre may have violated the "no weights" rule even though the officer reportedly did not release it backwards to add impetus to his leap..

Does anyone know the first 4-minute milers from countries south of the USA, and North of Antarctica ? :wink: There must be a lot, at least partially, "Native Americans" in there... I must confess that I don't know for sure who has that title in Canada... Anybody ?
