Ethiopia's Abebe Bikila was the first African to win an Olympic gold medal and the first man ever to win two Olympic marathons, 1960 and 1964.
Bikila won a gold medal and set a world record while running barefoot at the 1960 Olympic Games in Rome, Italy. He then bested his own record at the 1964 Olympics in Tokyo, Japan.
This is so great,have heard so many great things about him.
