DASHWOOD - A high school in
Michigan has come up with a sure
fire way to . prepare their cross-
country runners for the fall season.
For the past 28 years, coach
Tony Magni has teen bringing his
runners from Catholic Central High
School in Redford Michigan, to the
Pinery Provincial Park.
The first two weeks in August
are a training camp which is topped
off with a gruelling 18 -mile run
from the park to Ron Memer's
house in Dashwood.
"The first couple of years we
went three weeks, but we found by
the third week we were getting on
each other's nerves and it was too
intense," said Magni.
Spending two weeks together,
eating sleeping and training means
the boys and their coaches have to
get along. Camping at the Pinery
Park, their day began with a nine -
mile run before breakfast.
That is followed by breakfast and
then the boys have the rest of the
day to themselves to enjoy the
beach and Lake Huron before their
five -mile run at 4 p.m.
"It does' help because they know
they have to get ready to come up
here."
Runners get in shape before com-
ing to the camp which began at the
Pinery, because Magni said they
would be less intense on their train-
ing if they didn't get away from
`Redford.
Catholic Central is an all -boys
school and according to Magni
have had very successful cross -

cou'try teams. The co -captains,
Brian Smith and Mark Leo both in
grade 12, enjoy the training camp.
"It's good to get into shape and it
brings the team together," said
Smith. "If you want to be good in
cross-country at CC, you have to
come to camp."
Leo agreed that it makes every-
one work together.
"Once we hit the time trials,
were in shape," he said.
The time trials come early in the
Michigan school year which began
on ThursdaX, the day the team ran
to Mercer's in Dashwood.
Prior to running to Merners', the
boys use to have their final run into
Forest but the Dashwood family
have been very supportive of the
runners over the years.
Thursday's run was a fund-raiser
of sorts. Magni said that the boys
get sponsors for the biggest run of
the training camp and the money
goes towards their cross-country
program.
Magni noted that while the rival
schools back in Michigan do know
::about the camp, some are not for it.
