Jim Hagarty's arm for analysis back in Toronto.
Stapleton said afterward he'd never seen a body
like it. The fitness van is one of seven trailelling

• from page 1A
mysteriously started to
soundlike angels
singing, Jeff stopped the
test, ripped the wires off
my chest and back, and
invited me to sit down. I
watched the monitor as
my heart slowed and Jeff
watched the tickertape
from the elec-
trocardiogram.
"Not bad," said the
tester. "Your heartbeat
is good, both resting and
working," Somehow I
knew it would be good at
resting. It gets a lot of
practice.
If you don't` mind, I'd
rather not talk about the
muscle -testing part of the
exam. I mean, the only
people who go around
squeezing hand -grips
with special indicators on
them are fitness testers,
right?Little wonder I had
trouble getting the in-
dicator to move.
And those silly sit-ups.
The only practice I ever
get at those is the odd
time in the middle of the
night when I bolt upright
in bed after a nightmare
about gruelling reporting
assignments. No wonder
I collapsed after 32 in one
minute.
The tests complete, I
was carried, over to the
starting table in a nice
canvass stretcher and
laid to rest while Jeff
called the coroner,- the
Guiness World Book of
Records, and Dr.
Christian Barnard_..
The last part was the
easiest. Jeff tallied my
scores, comparing them
to a "national average"
for my size and age and
then worked out a
program whereby I
might be able to recreate
a version of the Lazarus
miracle,
I was handed three
pamphlets: How Fit is
Your Foodstyle, A Guide
to Personal Fitness,
Physical Fitness
Assessment Rephrt and,'
in consultation with Jeff,
discovered that I could
snake it to retirtnent age
if three 'times a week I
spent 15 minutes jogging,
skating, swimming,
cycling, walking or cross-
country skiing. Anything,
he said, would be better
than nothing.
He also said that if I
wanted to continue to live
the way I have been, I
would just have to pay the
price.
All four testers, Jeff,
Debbie Barr, ' . Barbara
McFarlane and Cindy
Jones, waved as I rode
away in the ambulance.
Thanks for your help, I
whispered through the
back window:
They"11 be back. Maybe
in September. And they'll
give talks to any service
groups and clubs that
would like to hear about
any fitness area from
nutrition to alcohol.
I don't know yet what
day they're coming back;
to Goderich, but I've
already told the editor
that I haver-, go to a
funeral that day.
But don't let me
discourage you. If the test
did nothing else, it gave
my conscience a good
workout.

Written by a company
from Edmonton known as

of Mitchell, Two Miles Off
is the story of a small

determined to see their
community continue to
