May 05, 1954 - Roger Bannister does it. Runs mile in under four minutes: Britain's Roger Bannister has done it. Last night he ran the fabulous four minute mile, a feat which the world's athletes have been trying to achieve for years, His time the three minutes 59.4 seconds. As he passed the post at Oxford's Iffley road track he was swept up in a mass of cheering, shouting spectators. Photo shows the world record mile lap by lap at Oxford last night. In picture No.1 Chris Brasher's agonized expression on he makes the pace at the end of the first lap shows his anxiety to keep to schedule, Bannister is just behind him and the rhyme is 57.5 secs
