Author[edit]
Jim Fixx was the author of the 1977 best-seller The Complete Book of Running, which sold over one million copies. Fixx is credited with popularizing the sport of running and contributing to the 1970s running boom through regular media appearances that touted the health benefits of exercise. Predisposed to heart problems, Fixx died of a heart attack after his daily run at age 52, which opened up discussion about the links between running, health, and life expectancy.
