Manage episode 274808868 series 2801178
When Mr. Lutterloch took young Roger to the 1948 Olympics, no one would’ve known that he was setting the stage for a life time runner. A runner so passionate for the sport that he would write books and articles and continue running after two knee replacements. Cheering for Emil Zatopek at those Olympics was the catalyst for a passion that has never dimmed. Roger was not a sprinter, in fact, he came in last in every race at school, where no races were longer than 100 yd. Through patience and persistence, Roger became an elite Master’s Runner. With a record in the over 50 age group (2:28:01) at the New York City Marathon and holds Master’s Marathon records at The Boston Marathon and New York City Marathon. As if that wasn’t enough, at the same time Roger has been the Historian of the Running Industry and a professor at Vitoria University of Wellington. Roger has been a race commentator and journalist for many of the world’s top races. His most notable book – When Running Made History https://rb.gy/b42sxm
