EDITORS COMMENTS
Works send-off for Ron Hill, Britain's marathon runner bound for the Olympic Games! In this print captured in September 1964, we witness a remarkable moment as Ron bids farewell to his colleagues at Courtauldes factory in Droylsden. Known not only for his exceptional running skills but also as a dedicated research chemist, Ron has become an inspiration to all those who have had the privilege of working alongside him. As he steps out of the factory gates for the last time before embarking on his journey to Tokyo, a jubilant crowd gathers to show their support and admiration. The atmosphere is electric with excitement and pride, evident from the beaming smiles on everyone's faces. Colleagues and friends alike gather around Ron, eager to wish him well on this incredible endeavor. This snapshot captures a significant moment of change in both Ron's life and British athletics history. It symbolizes how one can excel not only within their profession but also pursue their passion outside of work. With determination etched into every stride he takes, it is no wonder that Ron has earned himself a place among Britain's finest athletes. Let us celebrate this extraordinary athlete who embodies resilience and dedication as he represents our nation on the grand stage of the Olympics. May his journey be filled with triumphs and may his spirit continue to inspire generations to come.
