OPINION OF THE COURT
Mahoney, P. J.
Claimant was coach of the Adirondack Red Wings, a farm club affiliate of Detroit Hockey Club, Inc. He died on August 16,1979 while jogging near his home in the Glens Falls area of Warren County. After hearings on a claim for death benefits under the Workers’ Compensation Law, an administrative law judge concluded that claimant’s death arose out of the course of his employment and made appropriate awards to claimant’s widow and minor son. The decision was affirmed by a majority of the Workers’ Compensation Board. This appeal by the employer and carrier ensued.
