Biography
Bruce Jenner was on such a roll in 1976 that during the Olympic competition, he broke his own world record by 74 points. It was his third world record in a row, a feat matched only by Finland's Paavo Yrjola. Bruce dominated the second day at Montreal, posting a personal best in the 1500 meters, one of his top events. It was his twelfth decathlon victory in a row. Jenner promptly retired after the Montreal Olympics and pursued a career in broadcasting.
