I completely agree that Peter Snell's domination was impressive and I can't
think of anyone who jumps out as a clearly superior 800/1500 guy when
compared to his peers. Running 1:44.1 on a grass track is incredible. But
I'm not sure that doing it barefoot is really any more impressive. My own
personal experience has been that I can run faster on flat, dry grass with
bare feet than I can with any sort of shoes.
Anyone else have any thoughts?
