So sorry to hear about the passing of another huge legend of the sport who made such a contribution to throws in the UK - condolences from all at @RunforRon

Geoff Capes, shot put, strongman and Highland Games legend, dies aged 75. He competed in three Olympics and was a household name in the 1970s and 1980s. ✍️ @Jason_AW 📸 @AthleticsImages athleticsweekly.com/athletics-news…
