Race goals energize runners, give meaning to their participation in cross country, increase interaction with the coach and improve performance. (More on the benefits of goal setting in my last article) and they make great reading. I have just reviewed the pre-race and season goals set by over 200 high school cross country racers.

Sports research shows that setting goals is the most effective way to improve athletic performance. Cross country running competition lends itself perfectly to goal setting because the outcome measure is an available number and not as dependent on the performance of competitors or teammates as other sports.

The lovely Liz Sherwood held a small steak and green bean get-together at her place to celebrate her "Quarter of a Century." She's such a wonderful person. I feel lucky to know her! Her birthday party was the perfect way to end a busy day. It was nice to unwind, make new friends, talk with old ones, and watch a really interesting documentary about New York in the 1950's. Happy Birthday Liz
Two-year-old Oliver Sherwood is kept alive by daily doses of viagra. He has a rare condition known as pulmonary hypertension that causes chronic high blood pressure and can be controlled with four doses of Viagra a day.The drug improves blood flow, which in adults can boost erectile function but in rare cases such as Oliver's can open the veins and capillaries to aid circulation. His mother Sarah, a part-time nurse, said: "We joke when we pick up his drugs that it would be Christmas come early for most people. Obviously the dose isn't high enough to have the effect it would on adults. "Viagra is an expensive drug but it's actually one of the cheapest to treat pulmonary hypertension. Link

How many of the world’s eco icons are threatened? Probably most of them because they tend to acquire their status in part to their proximity to populations and that, these days, is the kiss of death.
Take Robin Hood’s Sherwood forest, for instance. It once occupied 100,000 acres in present-day Nottinghamshire County in northern England. Today, it has at its core a mere 450 acres.
Which is a shame because in this age of lavish acquisition there has been no time when the Robin Hood virtue of stealing from the rich to give to the poor should be more at play — and the iconic playground should be as robust as the increasingly necessary game.
But Sherwood is more than about Robin. It’s about its prized oaks:
Park rangers say the collection of ancient oaks is one of the greatest in Europe. But they see an increase in the trees’ rate of decline.
Over the centuries, the forest was carved up for farms, mines, towns and logging. Sherwood timber built medieval shi
El bosque de Sherwood es gracias a Robin Hood un imán turístico internacional. Todos ven en el bandido y sus arqueros vestidos de verde a una especie de símbolo de la vida en libertad. Pero más allá de la leyenda, el robledal es un hábitat de importancia científica internacional. El roble más antiguo que pudo datarse con científica exactitud, según Charles Watkins, profesor de geografía rural de la Universidad de Nottingham, es de 1415. Los más antiguos están huecos en su interior, por lo que no pueden contarse los anillos para calcular su edad. Y es que los bosques de Sherwood han sido maltratados durante años y ahora sus árboles, escenario de las andanzas de Robin Hood, el legendario bandido que daba a los pobres lo que robaba a los ricos, se encuentran en peligro de extinción. Sólo durante este año cuatro de esos robles cayeron por culpa de los vendavales de enero, otros dos fueron pasto de incendios provocados y un séptimo se desplomó sin previo aviso. De ahí q
