IKE MURPHY, the greatest M trainer of athletes In the world, has come out with a warning to youngsters who have tht Marathon craze. Murphy thinks that a race like the Marathon, which is a strain for any fully developed athlete {s a little too strenuous for a boy or for any man who'hasn't time to train properly for It. No man should run distance races, Mike says, unless he has plenty of time to run an hour or two a day and to sleep and rest long; enough to yecuperate entirely—two | things that don’t go together for any schoolboy or any man in business, He thinks the Marathon running will in- jure a lot of boys and young men who would otherwise make their mark in shorter distances And Mike js right, Every so-called “Marathon” run around New York this winter has shown the wisdom of his bellef. I am glad tc note that tn} the Marathon run in the Fourteenth Regiment games to-day every runner will have to be examined thoroughly off their feet and fell exhausted one by by a physician before ne can start.
