Murray Halberg
Born in 1933, Sir Murray Halberg with three children lived in Auckland. In his days, he was a great middle distance runner. He ran in the 5000 metres event at the 1960 Olympics, and he also ran the 3 miles event at the 1958 and 1962 Commonwealth Games. As he won his races, he was given 3 precious gold medals.He was raised in a place called Eketahuna with his mum dad named along with his brother, Hamish. Murray Halberg trained in his backyard. In the past, Murray would race cars and he would race his brother to school.
Murray Halberg inspires me, because he was a fantastic runner and because he never gave up!
