British runner Roger Bannister, the first person to break the 4-minute barrier in the mile, died Saturday at age 88. In this “Sunday Morning” report that originally aired May 2, 2004, Mark Phillips talks with Bannister about his monumental feat fifty years earlier, as well as with American runner Wes Santee and Australian John Landy (who were also chasing the 4:00 mile at the time) and with Neal Bascomb, author of “A milha perfeita.” Phillips também relata o confronto subsequente entre Bannister e Landy nos Jogos do Poderio Britânico de 1954, uma corrida épica chamada “The Mile of the Century”.
