The 1980s, like the 1950s was a great decade for mile running. Just as we remember the 50s for the race to break the 4-minute barrier, the 80s was equally famous for the burgeoning number of street mile races which took place in major city centres around the world.

Arguably, the most famous of these races was New York’s ‘Fifth Avenue Mile’, which after a number of years out of the sporting headlines is back in 2005, with a top quality elite field lining up for this Saturday's Continental Airlines Fifth Avenue Mile (24 September).

Unmatched pedigree

Sydney Maree, former South African turned USA citizen, who was to break the World 1500m record in 1983 (3:31.24), was the winner of the inaugural ‘Fifth Avenue Mile’ in 1981. Leann Warren, the women’s victor.

During the next decade many of the principal names in world 1500m and Mile running were to feature as winners of the race: Steve Scott, John Walker, Frank O’Mara, Jose-Luis Gonzalez, Peter Elliott, Wendy Sly, Maricicia Puica, Lynn Williams, Mary Slaney, Paula Ivan, PattiSue Plumer to name but a few. More recently, the multiple victories of Issac Viciosa and Paula Radcliffe also showed the New York race retained its class long after most other major street miles had disappeared from the international calendar.

US$30,000 prize purse

But this weekend, with a total prize purse of US$30,000, with the men’s and women’s champions each winning US$5000, and the race now sponsored by Continental Airlines, the Fifth Avenue Mile is very much back at the top. Also, aired live on ESPNEWS, the race is returning to national television for the first time in more than a decade.

There is also a US$10,000 bonus on offer for a men’s or women’s course record. Maree’s inaugural run of 3:47.52 in 1981 still holds the standard, while the women’s fastest of 4:16.68 was set by Plummer in 1990.

Webb vs Mottram vs Silva

It is in the men’s race where it is felt the record is most likely to fall. Battling for honours on Saturday will be USA Olympian Alan Webb, who will race against Craig Mottram of Australia, the World 5000m bronze medallist, and Rui Silva of Portugal, the World and Olympic 1500m bronze medallist, and former World Indoor champion.

'My goal is not to get the American record. It is basically to compete and be the best in the world,” confirmed Webb. “I'm not thinking, 'I'm going to be the saviour of track and field, so I have to work hard.' It's just about going out and doing the work. It's all about doing your best.'
Steve Scott, the great American miler says this of Webb. 'By the time he's done with his career, Alan will be the greatest American distance runner ever.'
Mary Wittenberg President of NYRR says this of Webb, 'Whenever Alan steps to the line you know there's a shot that he's going to go faster than he ever has in his life. He's always goes after it. He's not afraid to take risks'
