Once Upon A Time In The Vest presents its annual "cross country spiked in the knee video award".
Actually this is the only annual award in anything we've ever done. There are a lot of cross country videos
of questionable quality out there on Youtube. Most are inspired by some form of teenage angst. I thought
this one was outstanding, as it goes back into the early 70's and even the 64 Olympic track and field events.
Congratulations to its young producer Davis Nixon.

Beginning our 14th year and 1,200+ postings. A blog for athletes and fans of 20th century Track and Field culled from articles in sports journals of the day, original articles, book reviews, and commentaries from readers who lived and ran and coached in that era. We're equivalent to an Amer. Legion post of Track and Field but without cheap beer. You may contact us directly at irathermediate@gmail.com or write a comment below. George Brose, Courtenay, BC ed.
