SUB 4 REUNION
Celebrating the men who broke 4 minutes in the mile and ran for Bill Bowerman
Ten runners from the University of Oregon: Jim Bailey, Jim Grelle, Dyrol Burleson, Keith Forman, Archie San Romani, Wade Bell, Dave Wilborn, Arne Kvalheim, Roscoe Divine and Steve Savage broke the 4-minute mile barrier under the tutelage of iconic track and field coach Bill Bowerman from 1956 to 1970 – and each of them has a fascinating story to tell.
On Friday, May 27, we’ll celebrate the accomplishments of those athletes at the inaugural Sub 4 Reunion, a fund-raiser for the Oregon Track Club to be held at the Jaqua Center from 5:30-7:30 p.m. Tickets are $25 for the public, $20 for OTC members, and free to attendees that have ever run a sub-4:00 mile. UO catering will provide appetizers and Hop Valley Brewing Company will debut a Sub 4 Ale, brewed in honor of this special occasion. The social hour begins at 5:30 p.m., followed by a panel discussion with all 10 athletes at 6:30 p.m. Oregon Track Club Elite teammates Andrew Wheating and Tom Farrell will serve as emcees. The event concludes at 7:30 p.m. when everyone can make the short walk to Hayward Field to watch all of the free events on the first night of the 42nd annual Prefontaine Classic. |
