Who?

I found this article from running times kind of interesting... talks about some of the "really amazing but not really recognized" US Track and Field Olympians:
  • Ralph Hill (5000m - Silver Medal): in 1932, he became the first American to almost win a gold medal in a long distance event... he and the eventual gold medalist were actually awarded the same time!
  • Horace Ashenfelter (3000m Steeplechase - Gold Medal): in 1952, he surged coming off the last water jump to win the race in a world record time!
  • Bob Schul (5000m - Gold Medal): in 1964, he came out of nowhere to out-kick a world class field!
