{"product_id":"9780762766857","title":"Four-Minute Mile: 50th Anniversary Edition","description":"All sports have pivotal moments, single events that change perceptions forever. Such a moment passed on a blustery May afternoon in 1954, when Roger Bannister broke the \"unbreakable\" four-minute-mile barrier at the Iffley track of the University of Oxford. His unparalleled achievement is considered one of the two greatest athletic achievements of the twentieth century -- the other being the ascent of Mount Everest. This is the story of that epic event, written frankly and gracefully by one of sport's true heroes. But The Four-Minute Mile is more than an account of a single afternoon. It is a memoir of the first order, a heartfelt telling of the events that shaped Banister's life and his running during sport's Golden Age. Today, fifty years later, lovers of sport -- runners and non-runners alike -- will be moved by this impassioned story.
