I am sure he would have gone very close to 3:30 with more opposition that night. It was only a few days before the Olympics, and he was up against six great milers who were all having their own "Olympics" due to the boycott, utterly slammed by Ovett on a night when he looked imperious.
Great turn of speed with 200m to go!

TY, but...respectfully...could we get some Ovett we haven't seen yet? Some of his less famous races?
