Percy Cerutty Experiment Live Effects & Appearance

Athletic icon Percy Cerutty’s life (1895—1975) is a fascinating story of an unusual and determined individual.

Cerutty was Australia’s most enigmatic, pioneering and controversial athletics coach. He is best remembered as the exhibitionist eccentric of the Portsea sandhills who controversially trained the likes of John Landy and Herb Elliott in the Golden Age of Australian athletics in the 1950s and ’60s.

But his interests and ambitions transcended mere sport. After a complete breakdown at the age of 43 (1938), Cerutty set about reconstructing himself through natural diet and violent exercise. On the way, he not only performed extraordinary feats of endurance but developed an entirely original theory of human movement (based on the movements of wild animals) and "Stotan" philosophy that placed him completely outside of the square of conventional running theory – indeed outside all convention. He was an outrageous personality, but Cerutty’s exhibitionist ways in public were just one manifestation of an extraordinarily complex and passionate man.

His legendary camp in the sandhills of Portsea, on the tip of Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, was effectively Australia’s first institute of sport, grandly branded the International Athletics Centre. Thousands were drawn there from around the world to hear his captivating lectures, eat their raw oats, lift heavy weights, and run.

Figure 2. The rear foot of a raccoon shows the “heel” and looks like a small human footprint. Both front and back feet have five toes. The front prints have shorter heel marks and are 2 to 3 inches long; the hind tracks are 3 to 4 inches long.

I had no idea raccoons could climb up onto the roof so easily! WOW

Squirrel Invasion September 2008

So, the studio has 3 big skylights in the ceiling and a squirrel busted through the screen in the center skylight.
It broke and caved in - the noise and crash must have scared the creature because the animal was never seen inside but left these tracks behind. Looks like a fast scramble up and on the roof. Thank goodness it didn't come inside!!
Only thing visible was a broken screen and these tracks - must be Squirrel - right?
