» The Dream Mile Series
The Dream Mile was and is an annual mile race run at the Bislett Stadium, Oslo as part of the Bislett Games, one of the meetings of the IAAF Golden League athletics competition. This annual event was interrupted in 2004 for the rebuilding of the Bislett stadium, replacing a six-lane track with sharp bends and steep terraces with a conventional eight-lane track and seating. In 1980 the world mile record was set in this race by Steve Ovett, and in 1985 Steve Cram also set a new world mile record.
It has been the host of many amazing and now classic races. Below is the list of Dream Mile footage I have found.
