💚RIP Ron Hill, a legend of the Running Community💚
Ex-European and Commonwealth marathon champion Ron Hill has died aged 82.
Hill represented Britain in the marathon at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics and at Munich in 1972.

In 1970 he became the first Briton to win the Boston Marathon, breaking the course record, and won Commonwealth gold the same year in a time of two hours nine minutes 28 seconds.
Hill also ran at least one mile every single day for 52 years and 39 days before ending his streak aged 78.

His winning time at the Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh made him only the second man to break 2:10 for the marathon, and he still ranks as the 12th fastest Briton of all time over the 26.2-mile distance, while his winning time in Boston of 2:10:30 took more than three minutes off the existing course record.

Hill also won marathon gold at the 1969 European Championships.
On the track, he competed in the 10,000m at the Mexico City Olympics of 1968, and held world records at 10 miles, 15 miles and 25km.

He later founded a sportswear company, which paid tribute on Sunday to “our founder, our inspiration, a husband, a father, a grandfather, a runner”.

 

On the Day City said farewell to Sergio we lost an absolute legend in Ron Hill , an inspiration for runners everywhere, I ran my first race in his shoes and kit, raced in events created by him, the Tour of Tameside in particular. The World is a lesser place when we lose visionaries like him , RIP Dr Hill
