December 17 happens to be the birthday of a sizable contingent of notable runners. Peter Snell (b. 1938) -- three Olympic golds, five WRs, 1:44.3 800m on a grass track) Tatyana Kazankina (b. 1951) -- three Olympic golds, one WR, first woman under 4:00 for 1,500m (her 3:52.47 PR from 1980 remains a European record). Known doper, in case her Soviet nationality and the historical eras weren't dead giveaways.
