Abstract:
During the 1973-74 indoor track season, which was held on various tracks around the country, Tony Waldrop of Polk County accomplished a feat that had never been equaled. Competing in the indoor mile, he won, in less than two months, seven straight races with times under four minutes. He retired from running in 1976, completed his doctorate, and today is a professor at the University of Illinois.
