Name: Rob Hadgraft on Jun 14, 2009Comments: For 10 years (1901 till 1911) Shrubb was the finest distance runner in the world (not just Horsham or Sussex), so recognition in the form of a statue in his home town would be well deserved.

Name: Colin Arnott on Jun 14, 2009Comments: Alfie Shrubb was arguably the best runner of all time. He lived in a town 20 kms east of me here in Canada called Bowmanville. He is a hero in these parts and there is an annual 8K run in his honour.

In Canada we hold a race each year called the Alfie Shrubb 8K Classic, this year it was our 7th year. We also have what we think a very good web site. Have you checked out www.alfieshrubb.ca
