Murray Halberg, star product of the Lydiard technique of stamina training, had no downhill run to his remarkable successes in world aathletics. At 17 a football injury almost killed him. He had to fight to find in himself the mental toughness that wins great races.
For ten years Halberg was never beaten over two miles; beaten only twice in international three miling.
He was New Zealand's pioneer sub-four-minute miler; New Zealand's most tireless middle-distance runner; was world record holder in the three miles; olympic 500metres champion; Empire games three-mile champion.
.Without doubt, Murray Halberg is one of New Zealand's great athletic heroes.
