Ran against him a couple of times in the early '80s. A really decent bloke and so dedicated to his Athletics career.

RIP

    That's sad, he was one of the main UK athletes at the time I was first getting into athletics.

    I saw him run at Crystal Palace as part of that 4x400 team shown on Addickted's link.

    An integral part of a successful team which was greater than the sum of its parts to coin a phrase and tragic that he has passed away so young.

    RIP

    What a crying shame. Cancer is such a cruel disease. RIP Todd

    Such sad news. Another taken so young by this cruel disease.

    Saw Todd ( used to nickname him Tilly Todd ) run many times at the Palace and also as part of the GB 4 x 400 relay team, with special memories of LA '84.
