In 1958, Bob Izon ran the mile in world-record time in the under-16 age category, becoming the English schools champion.
But the most meaningful run of his life took place in May, when the founding member of the Rotary Club of Hereford Wye Valley, Herefordshire, England, carried the Olympic torch through his hometown.
Izon is one of several Rotarians who have carried the torch on its relay to the new Olympic Stadium in London for the opening ceremony of the 2012 Summer Olympics on July 27.
"I consider myself very fortunate to have been chosen, as half the bearers are ages 15 to 25," he says.  "It gave me a chance to pursue three objectives: inspire the younger generation, publicize Rotary's good works, and show that a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease does not always condemn one to a nonactive life."
Izon was diagnosed with the disease in 1992 but has remained active as a Rotarian, a justice of the peace, and a school board member at St. Paul's Churck of England Primary School in Hereford.
