unbelievable drive to make the 1968 Olympic staff.
Ron Daws was not alleged to make the Olympic staff in 1968. He had sciatica so dangerous in 1967 across the Pan Am Video games, he needed to drop out. Ron construct himself up and moved into fourth within the final lap of the 1968 Olympic Trials, working towards a man who had a PB of 49 seconds for 400 meters and Ron’s greatest was 60 seconds! Ron Daws didn’t let it come right down to a kick, he moved away.
