For
the past thirty-nine years the Bob Hayes Invitational Track meet has
been a focal point for young track and field participants from the
southeastern United
States. For those too young to
remember, Bob Hayes was the Florida A&M sprinter that was dubbed
"Bullet Bob" for his dominance of the sprints from 60 to 100
yards.
Hayes, who came to the world's attention in 1964, was the first person
to run 100 yards in 9.1 seconds and also held the world record for
sixty yards at 5.9 seconds. He was awarded two gold medals in the 1964
Olympics. A muscular 5 feet eleven inches and 190 pounds, Hayes also
excelled in football and is a member of the NFL Dallas Cowboys Ring of
Honor.
