The world-champion pro-
fessional middle distance
runner of the early years of
this century was a Canadian.
Fred Meadows was an
outstanding athlete, and had
a unique method of training
for the five mile foot races at
which he excelled.
He was assisted in his
road work oby a harness
horse!
James Hillis of Guelph
was famous in his own way
as an Owner and driver of
fast trotters, and raced
throughout the province.
Every morning the two
potential champions could
be seen as they paced eaeh
other doVin the country
roads near Guelph, Ontario.
One, the fast trotter, and the
other the foot-racer; each
working to condition wind
and limb for future contests.
Meadows swept all local
competitions, and won two
five mile races on one
Thanksgiving day, an
unequalled feat. He
competed in the Olyrripic
Games "Of 1908 in
England, and went on to
become world's champion
as a profeStional.
