Emil Zatopek is arguably the single greatest runner of all time. A Czech, he ran in his first race when working in a shoe factory; of a field of 100, he got second place. This race ignited his love of running which eventually led to the olympics and no less than four gold medals. No doubt Zatopek`s greatest acheivement occured in the marathon. The first time the famed Czech had ever run the race he not only won, but set a world record. All this occured in the olympics and in heat that had caused the current world record holder to drop out of the race.
