Hi All,
Sad to say old acquaintance Ron Hill died last week after battling Alzheimers for a few years now. I caught up with him and family last time I was in the UK around 2 years ago and it was so sad to see how he had been robbed of his memories.
He often ran barefoot in the early days as mentioned in the article below, and even won a marathon.

.
His running career would have been one of the longest ever.
Regards
Neil
