Can anyone give any information on this race or send me to a site that can? I would really like to read up on it if any of you have any information.
Thanks

Which race do you have in mind? They raced in the 800 meters in the 1964 Olympics, but that wasn't the only time. I know Peter raced Crothers on one of his North American tours and probably hooked up with him on a European tour or two.
I ran for Fred Foot and with Kidd andCrothers Bailey and Shepherd for 5 years. For the 60s a few hometrained Canadians competed with the world. I had left but I am sure the race referred to between Snell and Bill was in Toronto at Varsity Stadium.
Hi Orville,
Believe it or not, we actually talked briefly after the Boston Marathon in 1973 or 74. I remember you because your training profile was in Runner's World back in the days when they were interested in those sorts of things. It's good to see I'm not the oldest guy here.
If it is the Toronto race, there's be a good account In "No Bugles, No Drums." I can check and see.
Sorry about Fred Foot, I thought there was an "e" at the end of his name. Had you been in touch with him at all?
Didn't you train with Brian Gough too!
