Pre-season began sometime in Au- gust with hill workouts, speed work- outs, and long distance runs. Weather was very hot, in the 80’s and 90 s. Coach Merlin Reynolds was being a slave driv- er. But he’ had a purpose for putting us through these hard, pre-season wor- kouts. Our workouts consisted of the use of the bike path, beginning at Mazama and ending at OIT, and once you ar- rived at OIT you spent more time work- ing out on a hill course, before you would return to Mazama. The veteran runners were completing about 45 miles a week while the newcomers were work- ing out at about 25 miles a week. By the end of pre-season training all of us were in shape and ready to start the season, just for a vacation. The season was a lot of fun, and when all was said an done, the MHS team came in fourth in the conference, this was a great accomplishment, and we de- cided all the hard work had paid off.
