Introduction Twelve tense men crouched into their starting position. All were ready. On your mark, Get set . .. ...... BANG! They were off. Forming a broken line, the twelve runners settled down to an even pace. Four miles of rugged country lay ahead but each runner had determination written on his face. They were going to achieve their goal, the Victor's Crown. Mile One presented the most difficult challenge. The terrain was rough and stony. It took a genuine runner to come through. It was not unusual for some to drop out. But with the determination and stamina that makes up a true runner, ten completed the first lap. Now they approached the bush country and Mile Two. Thorns and briar bushes would often cut their legs. Parched throats would long for a cool drink of water. By now, the runners were starting to feel the strain. But they kept on. Now and then, they would have to fight distracting thoughts from their minds. Things that would take their minds from running and their goal. But the hope of what lay ahead, spurred them on. Mile Two passed into Mile Three. The bush country changed into hill country. It was so easy to let one's legs run down the hills. On the other hand, it was diffi- cult to climb up the other side. Gasping for air, they would struggle up. Their mus- cles ached, their strength was slowly ebbing away, they felt like giving up. One thing, however, kept them going: there was a prize awaiting the winner at the finish. The end of the hill country brought them to Mile Four-the last lap, the home stretch. Competition was keen. Three were running neck and neck. From some un- known resource, these three gathered renewed strength. With a burning desire, they began to put forth that extra effort. The finish line was in sight. It drew closer and closer. First Number One was ahead, then Seven took over with Number Four, close on his heels. They were running full speed now. Pain shot up their legs, their lungs seemed on the verge of bursting. One hundred yards to go. Seven pulled out in front by three yards. He increased it to ten. Sixty yards to go. Eyes were fixed on that white string crossing the track. Ten yards to go, five, four, three, two, one-the winner! Number Seven! Fellow students, this race can be pictured as your life at Trinity College. But remem- ber, this race at school plus all the other races you will run in this life are only a part of the greatest race of all time. How well are you running in this race? Paul said, l press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ .lesus.
