CROSS-COUNTRY From over the horizon faint footsteps and heavy breathing grevif steadily louder until emerging over the unconquerable hill appeared an Appleby Harrier. Amidst cheers and jeers he crossed the finish line only then to submit to the fatigue that over- whelmed him. A voice off in the distance could be heard saying, That was good for a practice lap, now do three more before our warm up exercises. Dumbfounded, the lone runner staggered off into the setting sun hopefully, for him, never to be seen again. Although we failed to break our victoryless tradition this year, the team grew as one, and for those who lived to see the end of the season, it was generally felt that we were much fitter than before but not really ready to prove it. Mr. Crabb ' s inspiration was greatly appreciated by everyone as we ate up mile after mile of roadway and mountain side. The aging vets: Chuck Stacey, Hugh Jackson, Des Burke, Nick Jackson will be replaced by the runners of tomorrow: Graham Stuart, Andrew Ross, Brad Merrill, Dave Burke, Brian Baines, Bruce Corley, Don Johnston and Paul Bundschuh who have all our best wishes.
