Did OJ chase him to the finish line with a knife?

Not sure what your hangup is, but I have nothing against any race. If I could go back in time I'd like to see all races live and prosper, just as I do today. What does going back in time have to do with it?
If you haven't heard by now the evidence against O.J. was planted by racist LAPD cop Mark Furman.

End of thread.
For sure 1964 Tokyo Olympics where the great Billy Mills became the first and only american distance runner to win anything significant. watch the video and see if you dont get emotional.
2007 NCAA XC championships
McDougal outkicks Rupp, McDougal outkicks Rupp!

LOOK AT MILLS!!! LOOK AT MILLS!!!
I know that was the commentary for TV replay. But imagine being an American in Tokyo watching that race, and seeing Mills fly past everyone for the Gold.
This.
1972 5k Olympic final. I'd yell at Pre to wait so he could guarantee a medal....If not that, Walker-Bayi in 74 1500 record.
Duel in the SUN between salazar and dick beardsley. although its tough choice because i'd only get to see them for a small portion of the race. maybe go back in time and watch the tv feed from the bleechers at the finish.
Colter's race against the Blackfeet. His life was on the line over 5-6 miles and he ran so hard he bled like racehorse and killed a man before he crossed the finish.
You can't top that.
He was stark naked and barefoot too.
moorcroft 13.00
And McDougal has done absolutely nothing since!
2003 Paris WC 5000m. Every part of that race was completely badass.
I'd go with the great race of 1856 with Millard Fillmore:

How has this not been said?:
Jesse Owens showing up Hitler in the Berlin Games.
One race, not a whole bunch of events.
I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned Viren in the 72' Olympic 10k. He fell and still set a world record. That guy was a machine. He could finish from a mile out in any race. He also got 5th that year in the marathon.

He could never run a step again be be 100 times more accomplished than you.
Kuts vs. Pirie, Melbourne Olympic Games 10,000m. Anyone know if this race is available anywhere online?
