Top 10 Legendary Runners
They are all from the pre-1980 years before the influx of so many of the great African runners although a couple of the runners I listed had a big part in that running revolution. Are there any other runners you think belong on that list?

Is Jim Ryun a possibility? With his World Record, American Record, Silver Medal and his amazing race against Peter Snell and someone else( I can't remember the name).
Jim Ryan is a possibility. His high school mile record (3:55.3 in 1965) might still be standing if it wasn't for Alan Webb's amazing run at the Prefontaine Classic in 2001.
