About

Famous as both a centenarian and a champion runner, he claimed numerous United Kingdom and world records for his running times in the over-ninety-years-old age category.

Before Fame

Born with weak lower limbs, he was not able to walk until just after his fifth birthday. He built up his strength and began running in his early adulthood years, but did not become a competitive racer until he was in his eighties.
