This year’s 2025 Bob Hayes Informational Track Meet (BHITM) was once met with a whirlwind of activities to celebrate and honor the Jacksonville legend. The Festivities included a Hall of Fame Banquet and two track meets, one honoring Coach James Day and Olympian Bob Hayes. The festivities are named after 1964 Olympian Bob ‘Bullet’ Hayes. Bob ran in the slowest lane, tied the world record of 10.0 in the 100-meter race, and won two gold medals and was once regarded at “World’s Fastest Human.”

Look at what has happened. Books that tell the truth of our past are being banned. Black history is being rewritten, diluted, and erased to protect the fragile sensibilities of those who cannot face the sins of their forefathers.
