NOTICE OF 47th ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN to all 1992 VMC FINANCIAL MEMBERS that the 47th ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING will be held on SUNDAY 21 MARCH 1993 at 11.00am AT THE ROBINSON HALL (Vic Walkers Clubrooms), ALBERT PARK, rear of the Basketball Stadium and facing the Lake, immediately following the 25/5km Albert Park Fun Run. Business will include the presentation of the ANNUAL REPORT and reports from the EXECUTIVE, the election of the General Committee for 1993 and any item of General Business brought forward from those present at the meeting. All Members, where possible, are encouraged to attend and meet the General Committee both past and future. Refreshments will be served. Letters To The Editor.......... Dear Richard Just a short note of appreciation for your kind letter and cheque for $2001 received today. Both were much appreciated (but neither necessary!) Please thank the VMC on my behalf for this donation. It is always a highlight of the Australian Track and Field season to run at the Zatopek Meet due to the good organisa­ tion, generally good conditions and a crowd appreciative of distance running performances. Some of my best athletic memories are sitting with my Ballarat running mates cheering for Mona in his Zatopek wins. I think the Zatopek Meet is tremendous for the development of distance running in Australia, as it caters for athletes of all abilities and now over more than one event (the inclusion of a Steeple was a great initiative!) As such, I was very pleased that I was able to break the long standing National Record at one of my favourite Meets and in front of many athletic Mends. I hope my performance now will also encourage more juniors into the Steeple and make the AIS Malinowski Cup a much sought after victory, along with the Zatopek Trophy for 10,000m. Thanks again for your support. Best wishes, SHAUN CREIGHTON (Editor: The Club donated $200 to Shaun in recognition of his record breaking run at the Zatopek Meeting) WANTED TO BORROW Does Anybody Have A Videotape Of The Following: - 1982 Commonwealth Games Marathon, 10,000m & 5,000m - 1983 Rotterdam Marathon - 1983 Helsinki Marathon - 1985 Chicago Marathon Please Contact ROBERT SUTTON on 397 6017 (24hr answering machine) Many Thanks If You Can Help!

The performance of Shaun Creighton to shatter Kerry O'Brien's 22 year old Australian record will certainly remain a permanent image in my memory. It wasn't just his brave solo effort that stood out, but the tremendous determination to prove wrong his non-selection for the Barcelona Olympics. Then of course there was Mona's fourth successive Zatopek victory (a feat not before achieved), the two Australian Junior records by the Power siblings and the emergence of Jackie Gallagher in the womens 10,000m further improving the ranks of Australian womens distance running. Full results and reports can be found inside. Susie Power leaves no doubt to being the 'hottest' distance running prospect in Australia at the moment. For this, she has been honoured with being awarded the second 'Fred Lester' Athletics Scholarship. Her recent record breaking performances coupled with a consistent 1992 road and cross country season made her selection by the Committee of the VMC very easy.
