P Pastime could bring All-America honors by CARLOS MURGUIA Sports Writer Michelle Brown is like a lot of people who enjoy the sport of running just as a nastime. University Daily Kansan But she also enjoys the competitive aspect of running, which could bring All-America honors to Brown, KU's top cross country runner. "When you have an opportunity to run just for fun, you can really release some of your tension," she says. "When I'm running, I try to think things out and make plans about them." But running competitively demands her individual attention. "Especially before an important race," Brown says, "I become lost in my thoughts because I concentrate so much. It's almost as if change personalities. "USALLY, I'm easygoing and like I came around, but, before a race starts, I become more focused." Brown's introverted style of running has paid off for her and the dayhawks in her own right. Brown, a junior, holds KU records in the cross country run (17:48), indoor mile (4:54) and two-mile (10:48.8), and the outdoor 1,500 meter run (14:29.1) and 3,000 meter run Last weekend, at the Region VI cross country meet, Brown and the KU team won a second consecutive intercollegiate Athletics for Women's national cross country meet. Will be held in April. If Brown can finish in the top 15 at nationals, she will earn All-America honors. She says it will take a good race and hard work to finish in the top 15. KU women's cross country coach Teri Redersson says Brown has a good chance of beating Bobby Fischer. Brown says her competitiveness had its roots in her high school cross country and "In high school I love to win the races," she says. "In high school I became accustomed to winning, but since running against collegiate competition, I've changed my philosophy from winning all the time to beating certain individuals and improving." Brown admits that running in race after and practicing all the time does take its KANSAN Sports "THEE ARE TIMES when I tread and I wish could I stop and rest for while," she says. "But then I start thinking about how much I enjoy running and I keep on running." Another factor which has influenced her decision to continue running is an apparent image she must maintain to herself and others. "I know I can be good if I keep on running." Brown says. "I think that other people have an expectation of me, that I have to be given, that keeps me going also." Competing from race to race has meant a continuously pressured cycle that affects not only her running but also other parts of her life. "The pressure builds up to a meet, peaks before the starts and then releases after the races. It gets even stronger after it's over it starts all over again. It afferces school work a little, but right now it doesn't." BROWN IS INVOLVED other extra-curricular activities. She works for the Women's Athletic Council and is officer on the Women's Athletic Council, and also is an officer in her office, Kappa Brown says she doesn't think there is a leader on KU's team. She does her part by turning in good times and working hard in preparation for the hope everyone also will do same. Although pressed for time, Brown does manage to allocate time for giving helpful advice and taking care of her freshmen. She says she gives advice on what to expect from other colleges' runners "I try to give advice on little things," she says. "Everyone wants to help everyone on our team. If it helps someone on the team by me giving advice, then I'll give it." Brown says she'll continue to race as long as thinks she's canelle of competing. "As long as I keep on improving my times," she says, "I still run. When there comes a time when I feel I can't improve anymore, then I'll stop."
