There is no doubt that one ofthe greatest concerns of modern man is his health. It isestimated that in the United States $200 billion arespent on health care each year. The medical field hasgrown into such a big business that it employs 4.8million people.Much more interest has been shown in preventivemedicine in recent years. This is probably due to theincreasing costs of medical treatment, but the writing ofsuch people as Dr. Kenneth Cooper have also playedan important role. In his book Aerobics, Dr. Coopercommunicated his message of the benefits of exerciseso effectively that many other authors have followed inhis trail, and literally millions of readers have put ontheir sports shoes and taken to the highways andbyways of America. A recent survey showed that over17 million people are jogging. Many of these are soserious that they trained themselves to run the 26 milesand 385 yards of the hard and tiring marathons(马拉松) that are organized all over the country. The last time I was in Honolulu , I was amazed to see hundreds of people, young and old, running for their lives. And I discovered many of them have run in the Hawaiian Marathon. Exercise has also become a major part of conversation. At a dinner party recently, the president of a bank asked me, “ You look like a runner; how far do you run each day?” A few days later when I appeared on a national television show, the host suddenly asked me if I was a regular runner. On both occasions the conversation turned to the subject of exercise and I found that this is a subject on many people’s minds.
