about wilsons store after receiving autographs from the toronto maple leaf rightwing jogging as a science jogging started as a fad when it was considered the in thing to do by some but as time wears on people are beginning to realize it was here to stay it has become a part of the daily routine of millions of north americans the jogger cmes ma myriad of different shapes and sizes from tbe trim athlete out for a fivemile jaunt to keep in shape to the overweight businessman out fora two block marathon trying to get into shape as sportswear manufacturers realized that jogging was here to stay they started to cash in on the craze- people buy shoes shorts sweatsuits sweatbands and other attire thought needed to present the look of a real jogger of course as with most sports people jog for a variety of reasons enjoyment a realization of the need for a degree of physical fitness some just think it fashionable to go for a jaunt in the local park in a flashy leisure suit naturally a person must exercise a certain amount of caution when starting scheduled runs it would be extremely unwise to attempt a five- mile trek in your first week of training or in the first six months for that matter start gradually using a slow pace and running for a short pre- measured distance slowly increasing the pace and distance as you begin to feel fitter if you have any serious medical problems a trip to your doctor would be advisable he would be able to give you an idea of the stress your body can handle it has long been recognized jogging is one of the best ways to recover from a heart attack in his recently published book dr terence kavanagh the car diologist and medical director of the toronto rehabilitation center says that properly controlled jogging makes the heart beat slower thus in- creasing its supply of oxygen to the muscles the higher the intake of oxygen the more overall improvement there is in a persons ability to perform endurance work at the same time keeping on a regular program causes the heart to enlarge and provide the body with increased circulatory performance but the road to better health must be approached with caution the importance of choosing the proper footwear can not be stressed enough the shoe is the most important part of the joggers equipment failure to select the right type of shoe can cause the wearer extreme discomfort and pain in the form of blisters where the shoe has rubbed against the foot flat feet from the foot striking the ground the wrong way sore calves and thighs from the jarring when a thinsoled shoe strikes the ground to hard and even twisted ankles when runners slip and slides because the shoes have poor traction as interest steaily grew manufacturers began to cater to the jogger studies were conducted to find the optimum shoe design the adidas shoe company was a pioneer in this field as one of the first companies to produce shoes for specific sports of course many companies were formed as a result of the jogging craze and companies such as bauer extended their lines to accommodate the demand for fine footwear adidas and bauer both have several dif ferent running models for all budgets these companies stress that fitting is impoi iant the shoe should fit snugly but not tightly there should be no external pressure points the shoes should be able to flex and the jogger should be able to move his toes relatively freely ensuring proper width and height haley wilson of murray wilsons shoe store said the store carries an extensive line of adidas bauer and north star shoes but the best seller was probably the bauer targa the targa contains many of the features important to a quality jogging shoes including excellent support cushioning and tough light- weight uppers jogging can be both enjoyable and physically beneficial but a person must ensure he is properly equipped by remembering his feet are an important part of the body to be given the attention they deserve at wilsons skate fit is important murray wilson shoe stores is one of the few remaining dealers of skates who still provide qualified fitting this has been their policy since george t wilson first started carrying skates in the 1920s a properly fitted skate will provide greater satisfaction for you or your child to explain what goes into the proper fitting of the skate it is necessary to give a breakdown of the skate construction first the toe cap of a hockey skate is hard to protect the feet from the tremendous impact which results from a fast puck or contact with the boards however because of its hardness it is important that the toes are not constricted in the toe cap as it will not stretch or give the heel counter on both hockey and figure skates is very important for heel and ankle sup port it is this part of the skate which provides any and all support and should therefore feel snug when the skates tied up so that the heel cannot shift wilson shoe stores have a wide selection of footwear for

unless well supported which can become painful after skating for any length of time the blade supports on skates up until just recently have been mainly metal to offer strength however new all bauer hockey skates have the new polycar bonate tiiuk blade supports these have one third of the weight of the conventional metal runners yet the strength is almost as great the blade supports should be centered on the skate boot such that it falls in line with the foot for maximum skating control most bluc runiicis are made of carbon steel tuuk blaes however introduced a new stainless steel runner

found that one can skate as well this way as they can in a full boot ankle and heel support are actually the same thing when the ankles go over it is really the heel that is turning the question most
