WITH LYDIARDS THERE'S NO CONTEST
Shoe fashions come and go. They celebrate one style this season, another the next.

Simple things do it. Real leather. Top craftsmanship. Attention to detail.
And the design by Arthur Lydiard. The man who knows everything worth knowing about running. And shoes.
Lydiard. The training's built-in.
FREE! THE LYDIARD TRAINING PROGRAM
Arthur Lydiard has recently published a training brochure that contains in brief all his major findings and theories. In it he covers the basic physiological effects of running. He explains why running, whether competitive or non-competitive, is the foundation on which to build a healthy, active life both in sports and other endeavors. And he provides practical, sensible programs for both joggers and competitive runners. There are special sections on distance training and marathon preparation. This brochure is yours free of charge when you purchase a pair of Lydiard shoes at Footlocker.
