Kay Humberstone, of the Eagles' support staff, jumps on Sunday in Delhi.

Graham Holroyd ran the mile at the 1950 commonwealth games as a veteran athlete, a young Matt Calland was in attendance carefully measuring out the "country" mile.

Ah yes, forgot about that.

It was the Empire Games in those days, though.
