Great video. Thanks for the post.
Still among the greatest marathon performances of all time.

great read
Wow, I can't see anything wrong with Steve Jones form. Easily one of the best I've seen. Good leg lift, relaxed arms and staying smooth.
I wish they still made those shoed.
Steve wasn't on the juice, either.
Great days.
Thanks for posting the video and articles.
I have the same video, though it's on vcr. I think that's the one where Jones was racing the pacer the first two miles and eventually cranked on right past him.

YA THINK?
was on the press truck that day just ahead of the leaders and so got to watch it all unfold very up close...was just utterly remarkable...seeing the race video today does nothing but give me goosebumps...cool.
