Harris Browning Ross headlines the multimedia section of the site. "The Father of Long Distance Running in America" competed in the Olympics in 1948 and 1952, and popularized running in his native Woodbury.
Ross died in 1998, but the videos on Heath's Web site help to immortalize the local runner. They could also help to bring new interest in the sport.
In addition to Ross, such legends as Gerry Lindgren and former Olympian and Rowan track coach Oscar Moore can be seen.
