She Was a Jogger Long Before Jogging Became Popular
If you lived on a back street in Hollywood in the early 1950s you might have caught a glimpse of Monroe running by. No, she wasn't being pursued by paparazzi. She was performing an exercise routine which she called her "jog-trot" which she did many mornings, typically dressed in jeans and a T-shirt or a halter top -- a good twenty-five years before Jim Fixx wrote The Complete Runner and introduced America to the jogging craze. She also lifted weights as part of her exercise regimen.
