Pre's Trail & Beyond Running Advances Joe Henderson, one of Eugene's best known writers, is featured in one of the best "state of the art" articles on running in the Decem ber 1984 issue of Runner's World magazine. Titled "The 10 Greatest Advances in Running," the Hen derson account describes the evo lution of the sport from a small to large, simple to complex under taking with the cost of participa tion going from low to expensive, depending upon the participant. Henderson describes where run ning was in the late fifties to where the sport is today. He reviews run ning as exercise and running as re creation, and describes advances which have made running an acti vity for all. He also tells about the evolution of running including im provement in training, progress and improvement as the result of greater information (books and magazines), as well as the relation of running to science, nutrition and medicine. In short, Henderson says that running has grown up, maturing to an activity with great benefits for those who become involved a little or a lot. One thing for sure, running is here to stay. Gadgets Materials and gadgets which have come mostly from running are digital watches, Gore-tex, lycra, nylon, plastic wearing ap parel and other innovations which have brought about improve ments in the quality of life. A good example of the develop ment of materials and equipment can be seen at the average running store like Bob Gray's "Feets" stores of Eugene. A large selection of digital watches are on display along with electronic and me chanical gadgets to measure heart beat, stride, speed, strike of the foot, and caolories burned. Feets has for sale at $150 a gadget called "Coach," a total exercise com puter. The Coach can monitor the pulse rate of your heart and signal when training intensity is the best or warn when a safe rate is exceed ed. Pace and speed of the runner can be directed by beeps, while measurement of distance covered is made at the same time. An adapter for Coach can be added for use on a bicycle, exercycle or treadmill.
