The first one was made in 1984 to coincide with the 40th anniverary of Bannister's run and I think it was commercially available at the time.

There are certain races from the past that I'd love to see again but I fear the recordings no longer exist.
My number one choice is a bit obscure. It is the men's 1500m race from the U.S-v- W.Ge ... |

Why hasn't Kipketer had a go at the 1000m record ?

As a 55 year old runner I believe a pulse monitor could/will save my life.
At my age what I think I can do and what I can in reality achieve are somewhat different.
