The author of the Griak story is Ken Popejoy, who had a distinguished running career, as illustrated in the old, faded b&w photo below. It's from a mile race in 1973 at the LA Coliseum.
The guy in the Bowling Green uniform is Dave Wottle, 1972 Olympic champion at 800 meters. The guy in front is Popejoy. On the right with USA on his singlet is Marty Liquori. Photo by Jim Ferstle |
