Hall of Fame 1 INTRODUCTION The scottishathletics Hall of Fame was launched at the Track and Field Championships in August 2005. Olympic gold medallists Allan Wells and Eric Liddell were the inaugural inductees to the scottishathletics Hall of Fame. Wells, the 1980 Olympic 100 metres gold medallist, was there in person to accept the award, as was Patricia Russell, the daughter of Liddell, whose triumph in the 400 metres at the 1924 Olympic Games was an inspiration behind the Oscar-winning film Chariots of Fire. The legendary duo were nominated by a specially-appointed panel consisting of Andy Vince, Joan Watt and Bill Walker of scottishathletics, Mark Hollinshead, Managing Director of Sunday Mail and an on-line poll conducted via the scottishathletics website. The on-line poll resulted in the following votes: 31% voting for Allan Wells, 24% for Eric Liddell and 19% for Liz McColgan. Liz was inducted into the Hall of Fame the following year, along with the Olympic gold medallist Wyndham Halswelle.

  • NUTS NOTES Vol
    NUTS NOTES Vol. 18 No.3 June 1980 Editor: Tim Lynch-Staunton, Meadowbank, Eydens Avenue, Walton-on-Thamee, Surrey KT12 3 JP. This is the third issue of NUTS NOTES to go on sale to the general public* For the last twenty or so years it has been available to members of the NUTS on a quarterly basis, thanks mainly to the untiring efforts of Andrew Huxtable, who was editor for many years until last year. We hope this issue will be of interest to athletics fans, in particular those who like athletics' statistics, although it will not in future be entirely a statistical newsletter, and will encourage those who compile lists and other data for their own amusement to submit compilations for consideration for inclusion in future issues. T.L-S. BRITISH BEST PERFORMANCES OF ALL-TIME - 10 MILES (ROAD) One of the most frequently contested yet least documented distance events is the 10 miles. So far as I am aware, no one has previously attempted to produce an all- time list for road performances. There are, of course, certain inherent problems. It's an event which, like the marathon, is subject to considerable variation in the severity of courses; and it is sometimes difficult to establish for sure the accuracy of distance for races advertised as being at 10 miles. But there are several very good reasons for establishing a statistical record of the event. First, almost all top-class distance-runners contest it during their career. Second, it brings together trackmen, cross-country runners and marathoners. Third, it has also produced a significant number of performers who have not achieved major recognition in other events.

  • WAVA Newsletter July 1981 (PDF: Pg
    Some of our correspondents can compete as well as write. The WORLD Association of VETER Athletes JULY 1981 The Presidents Message Dear Veterans, A short message this time. Our many and diverse contri- butors say it all for me. On behalf of all of us, I would like to thank them including those who sent material,. i just could not squeeze in tllis time. This 72 pages is our maximum, but I will endeavour to insert their efforts in newsletter # 6. I have also received a large number of letters from around the world. More than I can find time to answer individually, but "thank you", each comment fills me in on activities somewhere in the world. I would plead, whenever possible, for photographs; I will return them promptly. Amongst material I could not fit into this issue are W.A.V.A. scoring tables for Jumps Pentathlon (Standing, Long, High, Triple, Pole V.) and Women's Heprathlon (Hurdles, Shot, H.J., 200m, L.J., Javelin, 800 metres). These tables will be in the next issue but if anyone would like a copy beforehand, please drop me a line. We are in dire need of someone to write Walking news. We receive limited Walk results but, do not feel qualified to write on this specialized event. Anyone for Walking? A decision has been made and the following corrections will now apply to the following M55-59 events at Hannover Germany at the 3rd WAVA championships. As the result of protests, it was realized that Luis Torres, Puerto Rico, had finished first in 1500M and lOOOOM and 4th in 5000M in the above class, but competed in M50-54 in the later 4th WAVA championships in New Zealand.
