Rollerskating Rollerskating, once an indoor pastime, became even more popular as an outdoor sport. Many famous people such as Olivia Newton John and Linda Ronstadt, enjoy outdoor rollerskating. Students who took up the sport found it to be good exercise, good fun, and a practical way to beat rising gas prices. Junior, Deanna Harkins, demonstrated her skills in rollerskating on the paths at Lake Nokomis. The lakes were popular with rollerskaters because of the ready made trails and beautiful scenery. True skating enthusiasts were even seen practicing while listening to stereo headphones. For some people, just getting up on the skates would have been difficult. Students, just getting started in the sport, found it best to try a few practice sessions at home before attempting to show off. They found the sidewalks to be quite different from the highly polished surfaces of roller rinks, which made the ride a little bumpier and a lot more dangerous. Getting there • 17

Jogging Did students jog for pleasure or pain? Some enjoyed the exercise and exhileration of an early morning jog. Others found waking to the sound of an ear-splitting alarm at 5 a.m. caused almost as much mental pain as the physical pain of running. Whatever the reason — to keep in shape, lose weight, or to have fun, jogging was popular with everyone. Hyland Park was a popular spot for jogging. Senior Ann Wellnitz, a regular jogger, enjoyed the nice trails and scenic beauty of the park. Joggers could be seen along sidewalks and side streets all over the city. School hallways provided a suitable indoor running track for student athletes after school. Bumpers and grubby gray sweatshirts, although worn by many, were replaced with chic running outfits and specially designed shoes. Because of the popularity of jogging, athletic clubs devoted space for indoor running tracks. Many books were written on jogging and magazines devoted entirely to the subject. Jogging was a sport, a fad and away of life. ENTERING HYLAND LAKE PARK RESERVE 16 • Getting there
