Description

With reference to a fifty (50) meters short-distance running running race by given elementary school-children (three boys and three girls), I put to the test their speed, pitch and average stride per second once a year for six years running at most until the graduation from their primary school with a view to investigating into the correlarion of running capacity with their increasing years and physical growth. As a result, some progress was chearly noticed as follows : Their records proved that they ran faster year after year, especially by two seconds or more in the sixth year in comparidon with four or six years before. Into the auction, I found that their steps per second were increased in number, stride widened accrdingly. I carefully studied the running capacity of three out of the six children in proportin to the duration of the test, namely one for six consecutive years, another for five years and the other for four years respectively. The time required for the sprint was found to be considerably minimised by the first child tested for six years as compared with two other children. Therefore, I have come to the conclusion that the improvement of the record is attributed to school-children's increasing years and physical growth.
