Meade enjoys running and talking
By Pam Peck Kansan Staff Reporter
Julio Meade, 20-year-old KU sophomore from Queens, N.Y., likes to talk and run. And when he talks, he mostly talks about running.

"Track is part of me," said Meade, who as a high school senior was listed as the nation's number one 440-yard dashman with a 46.8 clocking.
As a college freshman, he was the Big Eight's top freshman sprinter. He holds school records of 6.1 seconds in the 60-yard dash and 30.8 in the 300-yard dash.
Meade, a versatile star, runs the 60, 300, 500 and 600-yard dashes indoors, and the 100, 220, 440 and 880-yard dashes outdoors, besides running a leg on the 440, 880 and mile relay teams.
Why does he run in so many events? He savs it's because track appeals to him so much and "maybe because I have the ability," Meade said.
The KU speedster was born in the Dominican Republic and lived there with his grandparents while his father and mother lived in the Netherlands.
Meade, who became a U.S. citizen last May, says his ultimate goal in track is to represent the U.S. at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City.
The KU sophomore kept in condition this summer by running at night through the streets of his neighborhood—a section of New York City which has produced such athletes as Bob Cousy and Lew Alcindor.
Meade believes limited competition as a freshman hurt his chances in the 440 at the National AAU Meet in Bakersfield, Calif., this summer. He made it to the semi-finals but then finished fourth in his heat. He reports the Big Eight Conference has a ruling

"You set certain goals for yourself and you can't meet them unless you compete." Meade said.
that limits the number of meets a freshman can enter during the regular season.
Instead of participating in cross-country this fall, Meade, who was the number four man on the freshman cross-country squad last year, has chosen to work out
twice a week with KU's distance men and four days a week with the sprinters in preparation for the indoor track season which starts in January.
"After college, there isn't much of a future in track, like there is in pro-basketball or football." Meade said. "But when you're as attached to it as I am, you can't give it up completely."
