Madras VS Nyssa Team score Nyssa 44, Madras 15, with individual results: 103 James Farmer, Nyssa pinned Loren Dunten, first round; 112 Bryan Running to Kah-Nee-Ta from Warm Springs by accident wouldn't be very funny to most of us, but that's how Roy Nakamura, physi cian at the Warm Springs clinic and December Exerciser of the Month, described the incident. Nakamura 's wife was supposed to pick him half way to the resort but was late. By the time they met up, Nakamura was at Kah-Nee-Ta. "It was a hot day, so I was feeling a little tired by the end," he said. Nakamura, 34, has been exercis ing on a regular basis since he was six years old when he started Judo training. When he moved to Warm Springs, there were no Judo clubs in which to train, so running became his main exercise activity. Combin ing running with weight training, Nakamura now spends 10 hours a week exercising. "Even though I am 34 years old, I feel like I have the health of a 20-year-old and I don't feel limited in anything I do. Exercise gives me self-confidence in my work, even though my work is not very physi cal. I am an easier person to get along with when I exercise you can ask my wife," he said. Goals are important in Nakam ura 's exercise plans. "It is hard for me to exercise without goals. When I played Judo, I was always prepar ing for tournaments and since IVe been running, IVe always prepared for certain races, like the Portland Marathon and the Hood To Coast Relay." Injuries are proven stumbling blocks for the doctor. A knee strain last summer interrupted his train ing. It is difficult to "sit around at noon because my knee is injured when I feel like running." How ever, his knee is on the mend and Nakamura can be seen running around the community while oth ers of us are feeding our faces. The doctor prefers exercising with others and he says his wife is in volved in aerobics. She is also signed up to run on a women's team in the Hood to Coast Relay. Nakamura said he would sail the Caribbean in his own sail boat if he had no limitations on exercise activities. "Then I'd come back to Warm Springs and tell people all about it," he said. , i? .
