RE: February 2012 - Base Camp
Read this book a couple of years ago. It's a great story but ultimately a tragic one (a car crash left him in a wheelchair and he died aged 41).

Bikila was the top marathon runner of the 60s. He was partly responsible for my dad and a couple of uncles choosing to organize and run a sponsored marathon around the streets of the Black country in 1969. Mum was manning the final drinks station several months pregnant ... so I was there too. He's got a lot to answer for that Bikili fellow...
