EastBayprepoftheweek67, you got him. Happy birthday today to Bob Schul, winner of the Olympic 5,000 meters in Tokyo (in less than perfect conditions). This coming Thursday, October 18, will mark the 48th anniversary of Schul's victory in the Olympic 5,000 at Tokyo. If you have never seen the final 800 meters of that race, you might want to check it out via YouTube. Nice job, EastBayprepoftheweek67.
