Ones n youth decides to become an
athlete, and It Is granted ho possesses
good henltli, ono of tho first requisites Is
to detcrmlno which events are best suited
to hint. This Is a question which the
novice should not undertake id answer.
1'liyslc.it make-up, tho known powers oC
pndiirniu'r. und othrr peculiar qualities
must bo studied beforo hn Is urged to
try special e.tuuts Hveli then It will he
dllllvult to dnslgnato th s or that spe
clnlt. Tho safest course to pursue Is to
forget about specialties tntll you hnvo
tried oursolf out "all nrcMnd." Then you
should weight Judgment with experienced
athletic friends. Their views wilt bo Val
uable, but ou nro tho best Judgo after
nil
Thero Is no gnuee to follow when the ques
tion develosl "What events should 1 select?"
Ion might plil out two men who In stature
and nuts, ular development appear to be Ideally
titled for the same events say for point of
Illustration the half mile. Yet upon repeated
Irtlll. cntAlln. n Hi.n nrlnt nt .l,in (hi..
sifuld tio a vssi difference noted in thelf re-spi-tlve
abilities. What II food for one man
sv-ouui hn poison for nnother This Is rarttcu-
inny imo 01 iracK ana nem atnietics, no
two men train nllke. No two develop nllk.
Too iinmo amount of work for all the eandl
datee would bo disastrous.
Mhletto authorities will tell you that a
rnuad nt work Hut-lncr thA first few weeks of
tho training period Is practical. After that,
linwover. tho Individuals should be nureeil
ninng 10 suit ins individual case iu tne Desx
plan, for an enthusiast Is to try a series of
sprint racea, nnd. finding hla nctton unaulted
to this work, might try tho middle distance,
440 nnd up tn the mllo. If his gnlt Is here
found to be slmv, go In for the distance rune,
two miles nnd up. It Is found from experi
ence that distance men mnke tho bst sprinters
and middle distance runners So It might
tie well to start distance work at the .out
set. Then after the muscles aro developed
tiv out In the speed events A sprinter who
nsplres to become a hurdler will And distance
work a great foundation. From distance he
should turn lho quarter mile nnd then point
tn lho sprints. It Is essential that a hurdler
be a good sprinter.
Th sum of the wholo matter of specialties
seems to be- Co out for distance running:
first nnd nfterward concentrate your peculiar
enorglcs along ttie lines best suited to you.
