For my fellow track geeks, especially the distance guys, I assume you’ve read Once A Runner by John L. Parker. It’s a fictional but basically autobiographical novel about the Florida Gator track program in the 60s, portrayed in the book as Southeastern University.
I'm old enough to remember those guys that were in the Florida Track club in the early '70s. Such a cool singlet with the orange on it. As far as distance runners go those guys were as good as anybody in the country as a group.

In the 80's while in school I worked at athletic attic, which was the running shoe store Jimmy Carnes and Marty Liquori started with used UF running shoes. I believe Carnes started the Florida Track Club.
