Shrub Is q Wonder,
Ten Miles His Limit
1t Is a Question if He Would
Be Able to Stick With Do
rando Over the Marathon
Route.

FOLDING every record from one
~ and one-quarter miles to twelve.
L L and with performance OF IL
miles 1.l37 yards in an hour to his
credit, Alfred Shrubb is regarded as the
most remarkable distance runner the
world has ever seen. Ten miles is his
favorite distance, but he has run fif-
teen miles in close to record time-l
hour 20 minutes Is IS seconds. There
is little doubt in the minds of experts
tina, Shrubb can beat either Dorando or
Hayes over ten miles. but how he
would perform over longer route.
say the Marathon distance. Is prob
lematical, and would he quit to the
gameness and endurance of the plucky
little Italian? Only q match can prove
that but in view OF the fact that Eng
land has always maintained that ten
miles is enough for any man to run, a
match with Dorando over the historic
twenty-six mile route Is unlikely.
Shrubb has been beaten only once In
more than 1850 races. He has out
classed everybody he ever raced In
America. so that now 1t is impossible to
finS any one man who can give him
any kind Of a race. During the pas,
year Shrubb has raced against relays OF
from two to four men and distances
from four to twelve miles, and won
easily-not by yards but by laps.
Shrubb has been running for ten
years, and to-day is as good as ever.
He attributes this to hard work and q
clean life.

course was a mile and a half lona
with an 80 per cent. grade. For p miles
he travelled along rough roads and
then entered the Empire City Track to
finish the last four miles.
Every racegoer knows what a race
course is like when muddy. Crowley :

lonaboat's First Race.
Longboats first race was the Herald
race at Hamilton, the home of Sherring
Marathon winner at Athens. Longboat
knew nothing about running then He
was just naturally a good runner. like
most Of the Indians. He appeared at
Hamilton in a striped bathing suit and
ran in it. He wore heavy brogans. He
had never seen running shoes and didn't
know such things were worn. But he
won easily, and after that there We're
plenty of men to coach him and look
out for his interests. Longboat was
forced to quit after running about
twenty miles in the London Marathon
He was in poor shape.
After Hayes had won-a few weeks
after--the Englishmen ran off a conso!a-
ton Marathon, to give some English
men a chance to show after Hayes had
left the country and Dorando had
turned professional. Longboat ran in
that and won in faster time than Hayes
\, had made But the real Marathon was
run on blistering hot day. and the
one that Longboat took was in cool
weather. In spite of that fact, Long
boat may be able to give Dorando q hot
time when they meet, II the great In
dian is in good shape. He is taller than
Dorando by foot or so, and has a
long, easy stride that covers ground In
fine style.
Dorando is quite willing to run

the Marathon distance, but no shorter
route. Shrubb. who can trim the world
up to fifteen or sixteen miles. says that
about ten miles would suit him nicely,
and that the Marathon is a brutal test
and no race for gentleman to run. In
any case, he refuses to talk business
with Dorando on anything but ten
mile basis. And perhaps he is wise.
Hayes, broken-hearted over his de.
feat. says that he will 80 on and train
and will yet take Dorandos measure II
