"The real purpose of running isn't to win a race; it's to test the limits of the human heart." - Bill Bowerman. Have you ever wondered what you are truly capable of? Bill Bowerman, track coach for Oregon State University in 1954, envisioned a new type of footwear that would push the envelope of his athletes' capabilities. After attempting unsuccessfully to give birth to his design ideas through existing athletic vendors, Bill established his own company - a creation known as Blue Ribbon Sports, and now as Nike. Since its inception, Nike has embodied the personality and philosophy of its founder: a spirit of innovation, drive and furious determination - a force that finds expression within each of Nike's products.
