At any di$ tance between 10 - 15 miles Hill and Drayton almost certainly ranked as the best two in the world. The proof of that lay in the f6ct that three neeks earlier Drayton had s€t a new world l0- mile record oI 46:37.6 breaking the mark prev- iously held by Hill. The Briton still held the rlorld records at 15 miles aod 25,000 metres. Ar the introduction Hill iabove) was grimly seri- ous, Drayton (below) smilinsly nonchalant. The {orthcoming race seemed to appeal 1o the Canad- ian's sense of humour, Hill later said that as they stepped to the line lfor their fourth meeting in less than a year) Drayton looked at him and quip' p€d, "Well, here we go ag6in." It was'here we go agaan' indeed. After half a lap Drayton was setting a wicked pace with Hill right behind.

Although it was never reported in the press, an un- usual incident in the race was that Ron Hill thought he'd heard the incredibly fast time of 12:51 shouted out at the end oJ the {irst lap, (The actual first Iap time was '13:42,by 23 seconds the fastest first lap ever in the racd.) Bather than being unnerved by the 12:51, Hill strode boldly into rhe lead. "l thought 12:51 was probably wrong," he said later, "But assuming it wasn't I felt l'll sp€ed it up even more - make him think a little." A mile later, approaching the end of the Iirst lap, Drayton still held the lead.

    Tom Longboat and the First World War Robert K. Hanks1 In May 1919, Tom Longboat returned to Toronto after serving just over three years in the Canadian army and two years overseas in Europe. When asked by the prominent Toronto Daily Star sports reporter, Lou Marsh, what he had done “over there”, Tom simply replied: “Oh, anything – carrying messages, running, dispatch riding and digging ditches.” This taciturn reply prompted Marsh to complain to his readers: “In my time I’ve interviewed everything from a circus lion to an Eskimo chief, but when it comes down to being the original dummy, Tom Longboat is it. Interviewing a Chinese Joss or a mooley cow is plo compared to the task of digging anything out of Heap Big Chief T. Longboat.” [sic] But if Marsh had been able to see past his own racist stereotypes and his subject’s tendency toward self- deprecating understatement, Tom had indeed outlined his experience in the Canadian armed forces.2 Whereas most previous studies on Tom have understandably focused on his illustrious pre-war running career,3 a deeper examination of his life between 1916-19 indicates that the First World War had a more profound impact on his life and running career than previously understood. “Running” When the First World War began in 1914, Tom was entering the autumnal stages of his great career as a runner. He was still a strong athlete, but his most famous victories were behind him.

  • Updated 2019 Completemedia
    April 15, 2019 Dear Members of the Media, On behalf of the Boston Athletic Association, principal sponsor John Hancock, and all of our sponsors and supporters, we welcome you to the City of Boston and the 123rd running of the Boston Marathon. As the oldest annually contested marathon in the world, the Boston Marathon represents more than a 26.2-mile footrace. The roads from Hopkinton to Boston have served as a beacon for well over a century, bringing those from all backgrounds together to celebrate the pursuit of athletic excellence. From our early beginnings in 1897 through this year’s 123rd running, the Boston Marathon has been an annual tradition that is on full display every April near and far. We hope that all will be able to savor the spirit of the Boston Marathon, regardless whether you are an athlete or volunteer, spectator or member of the media. Race week will surely not disappoint. The race towards Boylston Street will continue to showcase some of the world’s best athletes. Fronting the charge on Marathon Monday will be a quartet of defending champions who persevered through some of the harshest weather conditions in race history twelve months ago. Desiree Linden, the determined and resilient American who snapped a 33-year USA winless streak in the women’s open division, returns with hopes of keeping her crown. Linden has said that last year’s race was the culmination of more than a decade of trying to tame the beast of Boston – a race course that rewards those who are both patient and daring.

This is not surprising because we arefed aconstant diet of these four games by the various elements of the sports media. The improving sports book industry is also dominated by publications devoted to the big four. Other than Kieran Shannon’s recent Hanging from the Rafters,there are very few sports books that examine the social dimension behind the facts of sport. TheAmericans have led the way in true sports history. These writers not only produce the facts of their topic but explain them in the context of their time.

It is a book thatcan sit comfortably on the history as well as the sports bookshelf.

  • Hamilton Athlete Biography: William D. Sherring Leesha Deweerd and Krista Hoftyzer PED 201 Professor John Byl Redeemer Universit
    Hamilton Athlete Biography: William D. Sherring Leesha deWeerd and Krista Hoftyzer PED 201 Professor John Byl Redeemer University College Friday April 9, 2010 As a diverse and cultured country, Canada has produced many phenomenal and successful athletes in the past and present. Athletics is not a new concept to Canadians, as citizens have been participating since its beginnings. Hamilton has long since been a hot spot for producing elite athletes. Among these athletes is William (Billy) Sherring, an Olympic marathon runner. Throughout his lifetime in the 1900’s, Billy participated in many events including the Olympics, the Boston marathon, and Hamilton’s renowned Around-the-Bay road race. Born September 18, 1877 in Hamilton, Ontario, William (Billy) D. Sherring’s roots are tightly linked with the Hamilton area. 1 Billy began his running career at a young age with the Y.M.C.A. Boy’s Club. With a small body frame and weighing only 98 pounds, Sherring quickly shone in his sport. He started competing in his early teen years at various county fairs. At the age of twenty, Sherring achieved his first major success. In a great athletic display, Billy defeated his opponents in a race at Bartonville in 1897. 2 Bartonville was only the beginning of Sherring’s many eminent successes. Two years later, at the age of 21, Billy Sherring won his first of two Around-the-Bay marathons. This marathon began on Christmas Day in 1984 and is the oldest road race in North America. 3 Sherring was not without competition in this marathon. One of his constant and closest competitors was Jack Caffery.
