Men and women of nil ages have taken to the roads and sidewalks to Improve their and mental health and perhaps to deflate that spare tire that continues year after r to Jogging is acknowledged to be one of the finest con tnbutors to cardiovascular and respiratory well being and running is considered by many to be the most perfect form of expression Normally unfit people who execute A well planned jogging program are amazed by the fact that only after a few months of training they can run steadily for miles whereas before they started it was a considerable and sometimes dangerous effort to run for the bus class However these questions often go unanswered because they arc or the local organizations that exit specifically for this purpose to promote fitness and well being through run to encourage In age class com potion with the accent not on winning but on steady in performance Hundreds of have left the ranks of the joggers to become competitive runners and the number of local miets which for the ageclass athlete art steadily in creasing Athletes who are years of age are broadly as Masters and those in the age group are Sub Masters Ladies Misters events begin at age Within the Masters division events are held in the groups SO It Tht or become excited by their new found fitness and they wonder if they were to gradually increase their forts just how fit could thev become How many nonstop miles of running could they build up to and how does their fitness compare to other athletes In the same age animation dedicated to age class athletics is the Canadian Masters I whose president is Mr Don This sponsors several meets during the year in eluding the Ontario Masters Track Championships which arc held during the summer and the Ontario Last hosted the first World Misters

is advised that persons over have on electrocardiogram and those over 40 should have a stress an taken while exercizing The Georgetown hospital has the equipment lake a stress The next step is simply to start jogging Comfortable running shoes should be worn with a thick sole for good cushioning and they should have a good arch support The initial workouts should be carefully regulated so that no

yourself to become overtired or out of If jour breathing in to the point thai innot carry on a normal while running overdoing it Also if legs overly stiff as res lit of this exercise again re overdoing it s rounhne you will soon be able to jog he full two miles without stopping or liking Once you have reached this stage Jogging miles 1 tile weekly mileage by 1 m every weeks This does sound like a very large rate mere ise but it soon mounts so that after one year t weekly mileige has increased take place while running Mileage Is more Important than pace and this form of LSD long slow distance running is practised by many world After one year when training mileage has increased to approximately miles pec week the intensity of the running effort con be in creased periodically ic speed work but this is not essential if distance running Is your goal The sprinter may elect not to increase his mileage any further The middle distance athlete may decide lo develop towards a j0 or

racing pace is faster than seven minutes per you arc a runner The pace will naturally reduce for the older age classes Athletes who have become runners arc particularly sensitive to being called Joggers I started Jogging using above prinicplea years at age 34 I was reasonably It at the time but was overweight and getting less It year by year I found using a alow Jogging pace I had no trouble completing the two mile daily run without undue strain By the end of my first year of jogging I had increased my I bad tost lbs and had run 10 around a track In less than one hour By the end of the second year my 10mlle time had been reduced to minutes 10mile road race and my ability to race over longer distances was in creased In my Ihlrd year I ran kilometres IB miles In a hour 45 minutes and at year ran my first marathon miles in hours minutes lam averaging one mile increase every two weeks in training and now try to run approximately to loo miles per week Once this level of effort is achieved it Is usually necessary train twice a day and finding sufficient time to train Is often a problem mileage Is more Important than pace to the distance runner a World class runner now finds he n 100 to miles per week petltlve the world class level However it is doubtful that mileages in excess of 150 per week are particularly beneficial I The level achieved by a Rams open losing note on The Acton Rams of the OLA a Junior Central Division made an inauspicious 1976 debut lost Wednesday evening In when they dropped 14 verdict one of the league new members The Ram gime came together In

Acton squad in its Initial tilt Midway through he opening period the Rams had built up i lead but then their fell apart and walked off the floor with a first period lead The Hams dldn get in the
