The Sydney Wooderson 4:06 WR? That was handicap set up specially for SW. Only Derek Reynolds was still running in the 1950s, albeit long distances by then.

lol people nowadays can break 4 minute miles easier because they are full time runners and probably dont have jobs...roger bannister was a full time doctor and struggled to find time to train. All the people in the Olympics train most of the day and have a handful of people to help them train, eat right, and tell them wat to do. Roger Bannister probably only had 1 person if that.

Yes, but they wouldn't if it hadn't been for Roger Banister. Runners had been trying to break the 4 minute mile mark 2000 years. Hellenistic Greeks used to tie themselves to the tails of bulls in an attempt to beat the equivalent distance. After Bannister 2 or 3 other runners broke the 4 minute mile in the same year. The only reason we now run under 4 minute miles is because Bannister showed that it was possible and removed the psychological barrier that kept 2000 years of runners from doing it.

ya ur right i wouldn't say it all psychological if he didnt do it some1 would have eventually. but u are correct for thousands of years scientists actually thought it was physically impossible to break the 4 minute mile. At the End of the race Bannister Collapsed to the ground, the original thought at the stadium was that he had died from exhaustion.

With modern training, tracks and nutrition this is at least a 3:53 mile. Only a few people in the world can do that in any given year.

43.13 seconds for a mile is pretty quick. bannister could have been so much better if he wasnt such a nerd, if he trained for it with a proper off season he could have run 3.55 atleast
