It's an October afternoon in Northern Alberta and 29 runners' line up for a cross country meet in Grande Prairie.&#xD;
&#xD;
Amongst the many faces and laces. is a competitor who only a year prior had given up a pack-a-day cigarette habit.&#xD;
&#xD;
All of that has changed.&#xD;
&#xD;
Such is the life now of Ian Lee of the Concordia University of Edmonton Thunder cross country team, in that the 25 year-old placed fourth overall amongst the collegiate athletes in the above mentioned Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference Running Room Grand Prix #4.</description>

      <title>Kiana Scarf Making Strides at Lakeland College</title>
      <link>https://www.acac.ab.ca/general/2016-17/releases/20161007j4su2u</link>

On the Lakeland College Rustlers cross country roster it lists Kiana Scarf at 5-foot-4 in height.&#xD;
&#xD;
In reality, Scarf, is 5-foot-1.  The extra inches might have been added due to the extra length and personal growth Scarf has had to travel during life&#x2019;s journey.  When Scarf was in Grade 5 her mother Michelle was diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer.  &#x201c;The doctors told her she had two years max to live...she beat the odds and made it to six,&#x201d; said Scarf, her mother passing away May 11, 2014 at the age of 37 years.</description>
