Lou Cox- 1986
- Jim Nichols summed it up best- “Quite simply the father
of running in the Dayton area
- His fitness programs at the Central YMCA and later at
the Kettering Medical Center formed the foundation upon which the Dayton
running boom would be built
- He is a man of foresight and a great inspirational
leader- he continues to practice what he preaches concerning fitness as a way
of life
- Thousands of area citizens owe their present state of
health and well being to this man, the highest honor one can receive
