Breaking the four-minute mile was the classic athletics landmark until Roger Bannister did it on a windy Oxford track in May 1954.
A lesser-known target was 1:30:00 for women in the 20km race walk. The honour went to Kerry Saxby, who plunged into unchartered water 34 years after Bannister on 13 May 1988.
And she did it almost by accident.
In fact, the Australian’s 1:29:40 in the small southern Swedish town of Varnamo was little more than an endurance spin rather than a concerted effort to notch a world record. She even raced the Swedish Championships 10km the day before and won in 44:15. So, the mixed race around a lake was something of a warm down for an athlete who was on fire at the time. ....

Interpretive signage honouring former world champion race walker Kerry Saxby-Junna was unveiled in Ballina on Friday.
The signage, located near the Ballina War Memorial Pool, forms part of the Kerry Saxby Walkway.
The walkway starts at the River Street entry to Captain Cook Park (adjacent to Ballina RSL) and continues to the end of North Wall.
The walkway is approximately 4.5km long, just shy of the 5km Kerry excelled at.
Ms Saxby-Junna held the 5km race walking world record for almost two decades, setting a staggering speed of 20 minutes and three seconds in 1996.
The new signage is over two metres high and features striking aluminium panels listing Kerry s key achievements and a podium made from sandstone. ....
