THE INSIDE RUNNING
A FORMER Canterbury representative at both track and cross-country running, W. A. Kennedy showed he is still a very spry 47, by winning the fifth lap in the senior first division six by one mile relay, when the Canterbury Cross-Country Running Management Committee opened the inter-club racing season with a programme of five relay races at Rawhiti Domain last week.
Although called into the team as an emergency, Ken-
nedy showed he might well feature more prominently in events later in the season, particularly in races such as the Takahe-Akaroa relay, where his tactical experience and ability to shrewdly appreciate the situation has been invaluable to his club. A Canterbury selector, a position he shares this year with a former Olympic representative, A. W. Richards, Kennedy may well take the opportunity of sizing up the runners' capabilities in relation to courses by competing with them.
