Recreation Report
GARY LISLE, DIRECTOR
As I look around town these
days, I see more and more people
jogging. Both young and old can
take part in this activity without
the pressure that competition so
often provides. Jogging is simply
running at a very slow pace and
is very good for fitness.
People are being constantly
uvc,xtiiai ded wiiii fitness gim-
micks but a good explanation, use
of films, tests and the presen.ta-
'tion of research data would do a
great deal to improve upon com-
munity members understanding
of why it is so important to be fit.
It might also instill in the
majority of the community a
better attitude towards fitness,
Jogging is an activity that im-
proves the cardio -respiratory
systems. Cardio is a fancy word
that has to do with the heart and
respiratory is related to ..our
breathing. By making the heart
stronger, it is better able to do the
job at hand — namely distribute
the blood throughout the body.
Because the heart is essentially a
muscle bathed in blood, it is
important to maintain its quality.
Like any other muscle, the heart
will perform and do a better job
the stronger it is.
However; undue strain can
cause damage to this delicate
organ. Jogging at a pace that is
comfortable for you and for a
time determined by yourself can
be rewarding in fitness improve-
ment as well as the feeling of
`ease' that it gives you.
As mentioned earlier, our
respiratory system is also great-
ly affected by jogging. When we
breathe, we take in a number of
gases but the most important one
is oxygen. This oxygen goes into
the lungs, where it diffuses into
the bl000d stream and is carried
by the blood to all parts of the
body. The oxygen is used by the
body cells to do the required work
and the product, carbon dioxide
is released into the blood and re-
turned to the lungs where it is ex-
pelled.
By increasing the amount of
oxygen that we get to the cells,
we can increase the -.amount of
available energy and thus our
ability to perform the task at
hand. Jogging helps to improve
upon the lungs' ability to get as
much oxygen into the blood as
possible.
This presentation is very brief
and by no means complete, but I
hope it at least explains some of
• the unanswered questions about
fitness as it is related to our lungs
and heart. As with any type of fit-
ness, cardio -respiratory fitness is .
not something that can be ac-
complished overnight. It is im-
portant to our every day living
and as such should be made a
part of pur daily activities. There
are a number of people in town
who have taken up jogging in the
past year. I am personally
acquainted with three people
(and I'm sure there are more)
who have been running for a
number of years and have made
it a part of their daily routine.
They do it not for the fitness
alone, but because they feel so
good after they jog.
To further explain the import-
ance of fitness, it is hoped that
this winter we can have classes,
possibly as a part of night school,
to try to better educate the public
in regards to fitness.
Wingham juvenile girls
win first playoff game
The Wingham Juvenile Girls
completed their league schedule
in fine style with a big win over
the league's top team in. Dublin.
The game was one of the best
played matches of the entire
season and the . Wingham girls
came home with a well-earned 14-
8 victory. Doreen Taylor pitched
an excellent game for the team
and was strong offensively get-
ting on base six times and scoring
three runs.
This ,contest was a total team
effort with every player con-
tributing to the win, Probably the
best defensive play of the game
was' a fantastic shoe -string catch
by right fielder Laurie Johnston,
which saved a couple of runs.
Defeating the league cham-
pions in the final game of the
schedule, gave the girls the
psychological boost they needed
heading into the first round of the
playoffs. The opposition for the
first seriesis Ripley.
After being rained out several
times, the opening game of the
series was played in Ripley. on
Friday night. Despite the very
cold temperatures the team con-
tinued its good defensive play and
came away with a 20-10 win and a
one game lead in the best -of -three
series.
Once again, Doreen Taylor
supplied very effective pitching
as well as coming up big offen-
sively, hitting two singles and a
double; Several of the girls were
strong offensively: Janice
Coultes had three doubles and a
triple; Kathy Cruickshank hit a
single and two doubles; Esther
Nethery had two singles and a
triple; and Peggy Tervit added a
single and two triples.
The team has lacked effective
batting in recent games and it's a
good sign to see the girls coming
on strong offensively aftera bad
slump.
The team is playing the kind of
ball that can take them a long
way in these playoffs so come out
and give them your support. Bar-
ring more problems with the
weather there will be a game in
Wingham Friday night at 7:00
p.m.
