Jeff and his running buddies -- Frank Shorter, Bill Rodgers, Steve Prefontaine, Don Kardong, Amby Burfoot, Kenny Moore and others -- captured the attention of a new generation of fitness-minded Americans, and the running boom was born. What had been a sport for the few became an activity for the millions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eJeff attended Wesleyan University and was All-American in cross-country and track. In preparing for the 1972 Olympics, Jeff, along with Frank Shorter and Jack Bacheler, spent two months training in the mountains at Vail, Colorado, and all three made the Olympic team that year.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn 1973 Jeff set an American record in the 10-mile. He won the first Atlanta Marathon at age 18, and was the first winner of Atlanta's Peachtree Road Race in 1970. In the mid-'70s he began to follow a training program that emphasized more rest and less weekly mileage, coupled with a long run every other week. At age 35 he ran the Houston-Tenneco Marathon in 2:16.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJeff Galloway's Competitive Career\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHigh school: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-mile: 4:28;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e2-mile: 9:48\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCollege: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-mile: 4:12;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e2-mile: 9:06;\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e3-mile: 14:10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther times: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-mile: 27:21\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e10K: 28:29\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e10-mile: 47:49 (U.S. record, 1973)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eJeff met his wife Barbara at a track meet in Florida.
