A trailblazer Rabbit in the long run

In any endeavor there has to be someone to start and lead the way in being the first to do so. Martin Miller was definitely a trailblazer for Atlanta High School Athletics. Running for the Rabbs in the late 1960’s and early 70’s he brought Atlanta High its very first State Champion in an individual track event. After more than 40 years of competing in UIL track the Rabbits finally had a champion as Martin won the mile run at Austin in the 1970 State Track Meet. He enjoyed the success so much that he came back in 1971 to win gold in the mile again. Eighteen years would pass until another Rabb would be a State Track Champion in 1989. Many Runnin’ Rabbs have since earned gold following in Miller’s lead atop the State victory stand.
