Subject: LAST GREAT U.S. TEAM AT XC WORLDS
Body:

Long race men 1981:
The Ethiopians miscounted the laps and sprinted early, Virgin keep his cool and composure, making his move perfectly(as he did in '80) and held off Kedir for his second straight victory. The U.S. again gets second place as a team, this time having to defeat a new group of distance runners from a country that has go on to finish 1st or 2nd since then(if my memory serves me well).
