	HurdlesFirst - Takin' it Back to '72
		Milburn set a new world record in that race, but because it took place on the same day as the 400 meter final, and only two days after the terrorist attack, Milburn’s outstanding performance went more or less unnoticed, and has never been acknowledged for the phenomenal achievement that it was.
		At about the second or third hurdle, Drut went by me. I recall thinking, and I remember this vividly, how on Saturday mornings I used to watch cartoons, and they had one about a guy marooned on an island, and he’d be seeing hallucinations of hamburgers on wings.
		They put Rod’s name up, they put Guy’s name up, then when they put Hill in the third slot, I bet I jumped twenty feet in the air.
