“At 10 minutes to seven on a dark, cool evening in Mexico City in 1968, John Stephen Akwari of Tanzania painfully hobbled into the Olympic Stadium-the last man to finish the marathon. The winner had already been crowned, and the victory ceremony was long finished. So the stadium was almost empty and Akwari - alone, his leg bloody and bandaged - struggled to circle the track to the finish line.

They sent me 9,000 miles to finish the race.” MenLongCountryLastsYoungLinesDarkRaceCitiesStruggleMinutesVictoryEmptySevenTrackLegsFinishedMilesCirclesEveningWinnerYoung ManMexicoBloodyCeremonyMarathonStadiumsFinish LineMexico CityTanzania Author:Walter Inglis Anderson
