Debate #5: Fitness - just a trend?

This fortnight we're delving into the world of fashion. Not fashion as in clothing, but we ask: is fitness just a trend that's seen as 'fashionable' now?

A lot more ordinary adults are involved in sporty activities and there seems to be a lot more support out there - you don't have to hunt very far to find a beginner running course, a 5km race or some sports kit that looks quite nice - but does this genuinely indicate a healthier/fitter society, or is it because being fit is now seen as quite cool and trendy?
