 Foot racing is a popular activity in the United States. It is seen not only as a competitive sport but also as 
a way to exercise, to enjoy the camaraderie of like-minded people, and to donate money to a good cause. 
Though serious runners may spend months training to compete, other runners and walkers might not train at 
all. Those not competing to win might run in an effort to beat their own time or simply to enjoy the fun and 
exercise. People of all ages, from those of less than one year (who may be pushed in strollers) to those in their 
eighties, enter into this sport. The races are held on city streets, on college campuses, through parks, and in 
suburban areas, and they are commonly 5 to 10 kilometers in length. 
 The largest foot race in the world is the 12-kilometer Bay to Breakers race that is held in San Francisco 
every spring. This race begins on the east side of the city near San Francisco Bay and ends on the west side at 
the Pacific Ocean. There may be 80,000 or more people running in this race through the streets and hills of 
San Francisco. In the front are the serious runners who compete to win and who might finish in as little as 34 
minutes. Behind them are the thousands 20 who take several hours to finish. In the back of the race are those 
who dress in costumes and come just for fun. One year there was a group of men who dressed like Elvis 
Presley, and another group consisted of firefighters who were tied together in a long line and who were 
carrying a fire hose. There was even a bridal party, in which the bride was dressed in a long white gown and 
the groom wore a tuxedo. The bride and groom threw flowers to bystanders, and they were actually married 
at some point along the route.

 In most families, conflict is more likely to be about clothing, music, and leisure time than about more 
serious matters such as religion and core values. Family conflict is rarely about such major issues as 
adolescents' drug use and delinquency. Nevertheless, it has been estimated that in about 5 million American 
families (roughly 20 percent), parents and adolescents engage in intense, prolonged, unhealthy conflict. In its 
most serious form, this highly stressful environment is associated with a number of negative outcomes, 
including juvenile delinquency, moving away from home, increased school dropout rates, unplanned 
pregnancy, membership in religious cults, and drug abuse (Steinberg & Morris, 2001).
