athletic events inthe Olympic programme there would be no difficulty infinding sufficient material for a massive compendium ora series of shorter specialist volumes,so to containthe essential rules and the nub of training and competi-tion advice in one slim booklet is a formidable task.Creditably Carlton Johnson has achieved this in amanner that retains the interest,and serves the interests,of the organiser,the judge,the coach and the athlete.  \nThere is an unfortunate tendency nowadays to thinkof athletics almost solely in terms of championships andrecords,ignoring the fact that for the majority ofparticipants in this oldest and most fundamental ofsports the pleasure lies in the actual participation,andthe reward in the sense of physical and mental satisfac-tion that comes with even the most modest achievementin one of the many varied skills and activities thatcomprise athletics.  \nEvery type of physique can be catered for by at leastone of the running,jumping,throwing or walkinggroups of events and just to complete the course,throwor jump any distance at all in the correct manner or toclear a cross-bar provides a measurable achievementwhether it be assessed on a decathlon scoring table orin an award scheme.  \nThere is no sport with a wider base...every school-child who is not lame or infirm,runs,jumps andthrows...and the talented can emerge to progress upthe pyramid.  \nThis book,catering as it does for those at the base,worthily provides for the great good of a great number,and I hope that all those who have the good fortune touse it and profit from it will share the pleasure andenjoyment that athletics brings to its devotees all overthe world.  \nultutu rd  \nHonorary SecretaryBritish Amateur Athletic Board  \n# INTRODUCTION\n\nRunning has
