I gotta write something, too? Nobody told me this! All I can think of to say is: WHEW! And, Thanks to Everyone who helped me getting this issue (and my act) together. I have many names and numbers of volunteers who expressed interest in assisting with Footprints. If I haven’t called on you yet, don’t fret, I’m slowly making my way down the list. You will hear from me - I have plenty more to learn. I apologize for the lateness of this issue and am working hard to catch up. My number one concern is to get these out timely, really (oh, and to make sure there’s plenty of adult beverages at the races, too). Please, read this cover-to-cover; give us ideas on improvements, suggestions for articles, postings, pictures, you get the idea..

  • Temperature Chapter 1—Temperature Impact Study For
    May 15, 2019 Temperature Chapter 1—Temperature Impact Study for Spokane, Washington “Climate change will increase the frequency and severity of future extreme heat events while also resulting in generally warmer summers and milder winters, with implications for human health.” — Marcus Sarofim et al., “Temperature-Related Death and Illness. The Impacts of Climate Change on Human Health in the United States: A Scientific Assessment. U.S. Global Change Research Program” Chapter Summary: This chapter examines the effects that projected future temperature increases are likely to have on human health and safety in Spokane. Spokane’s annual Lilac Bloomsday Run (Bloomsday) is used as a case study to illustrate potential impacts to human health. Lead Authors: Rebecca MacMullan (350 Spokane), Kara Odegard (Measure Meant), Jim Simon (Gonzaga University), and David Camp (Northwest Renewables) Review Editors: Nathan Gilles (CIRC/Oregon State University), Katherine Hegewisch (CIRC/University of Idaho), John Abatzoglou (CIRC/UI), Ann Mooney (CIRC/OSU), and Meghan Dalton (CIRC/OSU). Key Findings: 1. Strong evidence suggests that human-caused climate change is leading to rising temperatures in Spokane that will likely correspond to a rise in heat-related illnesses. 2. By the middle of this century (2040–2069), mean annual temperatures in Spokane are projected to be 4.4 degrees Fahrenheit warmer under the lower emissions scenario (RCP 4.5) and 5.9 °F warmer under the high emissions scenario (RCP 8.5) than they were during the historical years 1971–2000. Temperature increases in Spokane become more extreme by late century (2070–2099), rising by 5.5 °F under RCP 4.5 and by 9.5 °F under RCP 8.5.

    West Valley Marathon ANNOUNCING: NIKE TRACK CLUB The new A.A.U.-Sanctioned Nike Track Club is now open for membership. This club will be most unique in that a human resource file will be developed to en­ courage the co-operative exchange of services, special abilities, and skills that members can share and provide with/for each other.

Therefore, we hope to promote friendship and camaraderie among all who share run­ ning as a common interest. Some of the objectives of the Nike Track Club will be as follows: (1) To de­ velop and promote age-group competition, fun-runs, and road races; (2) To provide coaching for those interested; (3) To offer numerous workshops, lectures, and se­ minars on the subject of running as presented by key resource people here in the Bay Area and from throughout the country; (4) To provide a clearing house for pam­ phlets and other materials; (5) To encourage executives of business, industry, and government to promote and support physical fitness/running programs. So whether you're a sub-2:20 marathoner or a beginning runner, the Nike Track Club extends an open invitation to join them.
