RIP Sir Roger Bannister Sir Roger Gilbert Bannister (23 March 1929 3 March 2018) was a British middle-distance athlete, doctor and academic who ran the first sub-4-minute mile. Roger Bannister, the first person to break the 4-minute mile, died in Oxford on Saturday at age 88, the Associated Press reports. More than 60 years ago, back on a cinder track at Oxford University s Iffley Road Stadium in 1954, Bannister completed four laps in 3:59.4, a record-breaking performance that many believed was not humanly possible. The image of the exhausted Bannister with his eyes closed and mouth agape appeared on the front page of newspapers around the world, a testament to what humankind could achieve. It became a symbol of attempting a challenge in the physical world of something hitherto thought impossible, Bannister said as the 50th anniversary of the run approached, according to the AP. I d like to see it as a metaphor not only for sport, but for life and seeking challenges.
