 Jerome Drayton, after competing in the marathon at the Montreal Olympic Games, 1976, by R. Warren In his first full season as a marathoner, Jerome Drayton (born 1945) surprised the running world with his win in 1969 at the Fukuoka world championship race in Japan. He won it two more times and also won a Boston marathon during his athletic career. This photo, taken at the end of the runner’s sixth-place finish at the 1976 Montreal Olympics, shows the physical exhaustion resulting from his efforts exerted during the 42.2 kilometre run. |
