Four Minutes

Digg! this story.
by Keith Granger
| Yesterday was sick day at our house. Our six-year-old son had a high fever, so we spent the day on the couch watching movies. The kids got to pick most of the movies, but I snuck this one in while they were kind-of napping. Four Minutes is the story of Roger Bannister’s quest to break the four minute mile. I had read the book titled The Perfect Mile several months ago and really enjoyed it. I thought the movie was great, though, as always with movies that follow books, was disappointed that so much of the story had to be left out. The movie really only followed Bannister and left out all the details of Wes Santee and John Landy, who were also in the pursuit. The dvd also included an interview with Roger Bannister and original footage of the first sub-4 minute mile. It was fun to get to see this. This is really a great story and I would highly recommend both the book and the movie. |   |

Hey Keith,
I know it’s not real estate oriented, but maybe you could put our Wenatchee real estate blog on your blogroll?
