Very good, gm33 and happy birthday to Livio Berruti. Berruti won Olympic gold about 32 years after another L.B. (Lord Burghley) won his Olympic gold medal. Yes, I know his name was David, but results usually show Lord Burghley. Luigi Beccali would also work, especially coming from the same country. Happy 75th birthday to Livio Berruti. Rumor has it that Livio will light newspapers and programs instead of candles today.
Actually, in full:
David George Brownlow Cecil, the 6th Marquess of Exeter, Lord Burghley

Happy 75th birthday today (Monday) to an Olympic champion who won the gold medal at the age of 21. Our birthday athlete was born about 325 miles from the Olympic city where this person won the Olympic gold medal.
About 32 years before our birthday athlete won Olympic gold, another athlete, sharing the same initials as our birthday person, won Olympic gold.
Don't worry about the hurdles when trying to figure the name of this birthday athlete.
The city where our birthday individual was born hosted the Olympic Games about 67 years after our birthday athlete was born.
Wearing objects that were black and white, this champion became very famous in the track and field world.
Enough clues for now. Who is this champion with a birthday today?
