Another marathon?
In 1963, William Bowerman, Professor of Physical Education at the University of Oregon, published a 4-page pamphlet entitled "The Jogger's Manual." Instructions were simple: Jog until you're puffing, then walk until your breathing is normal again. Repeat.
Soon, people everywhere were running...

Jogging on country roads, getting back to nature...
Bowerman's manual had been based partially upon a visit he made to New Zealand, where he witnessed jogging being used to combat sedentary lifestyles.
In the late 1960's, Bowerman, also a track and field coach, and cardiologist Waldo Harris published a book called "Jogging," which sold more than 1 million copies, and further popularized the jogging craze.
A cheetah can run 70 miles per hour!
In 1968, cardiologist Kenneth Cooper published "Aerobics." Many credit Cooper as the man who popularized running.
In 1977, Jim Fixx wrote a best-seller, entitled "The Complete Book Of Running," which also sold over 1 million copies.
I've got copies of both Cooper's and Fixx's books on my bookshelf.

The nice thing is, even with all the popularity of running, we don't have to run to be successful here at WA.
We can go at whatever pace feels right, and we'll get there just the same.
