The rider with the fastest time after all have competed is the winner. Intermediate times are shown every lap. Pursuit Pursuit is conducted with two athletes on the track at the same time, starting on opposite sides. The riders will be paired in reverse order based on rankings after the entries for the qualification phase. (Note: pairing of athletes with similar disabilities during the qualification phase will take precedence in order not to penalise or favour particular athletes.) Intermediate times are shown every 1000m. The riders with the two fastest times will race for the gold medal, while the riders ranked third (3rd) and fourth (4th) after qualifying will race for the bronze. Team Sprint This event consists of two stages. The first is a qualifying round cycled over three laps by teams of three. Each rider in a team leads for a lap before dropping back. The qualifying round is conducted with one team on the track competing alone to record a time and will determine seeding for the finals. The two fastest teams after the qualifying round will race for the gold medal, and the two teams ranked third and fourth will ride for the bronze. Other teams will be ranked based on their times in the qualifying round.

  • Para Cycling Information Sheet About the Sport Classification Explained
    Para cycling information sheet About the sport Para cycling is cycling for people with impairments resulting from a health condition (disability). Para athletes with physical impairments either compete on handcycles, tricycles or bicycles, while those with a visual impairment compete on tandems with a sighted ‘pilot’. Para cycling is divided into track and road events, with seven events in total. Classification explained In Para sport classification provides the structure for fair and equitable competition to ensure that winning is determined by skill, fitness, power, endurance, tactical ability and mental focus – the same factors that account for success in sport for able-bodied athletes. The Para sport classification assessment process identifies the eligibility of each Para athlete’s impairment, and groups them into a sport class according to the degree of activity limitation resulting from their impairment. Classification is sport-specific as an eligible impairment affects a Para athlete’s ability to perform in different sports to a different extent. Each Para sport has a different classification system. Standard Classification in detail Para-Cycling sport classes include: Handcycle sport classes H1 – 5: There are five different sport classes for handcycle racing. The lower numbers indicate a more severe activity limitation. Para athletes competing in the H1 classes have a complete loss of trunk and leg function and limited arm function, e.g. as a result of a spinal cord injury. Para athletes in the H4 class have limited or no leg function, but good trunk and arm function. Para cyclists in sport classes H1 – 4 compete in a reclined position. Para cyclists in the H5 sport class sit on their knees because they are able to use their arms and trunk to accelerate the handcycle.

    THE UNITED STATES OLYMPIC COMMITTEE ATHLETE SPOTLIGHT. JOE KOVACS, SHOT PUT As the track & field outdoor season comes to a close, shot put thrower Joe Kovacs has enjoyed a breakout year in 2015. At the 2015 IAAF World Championships in Beijing, Kovacs won his first World Championship title in the men’s shot put on August 23. Kovacs finished the qualifying round in the lead with a mark of 21.36m, automatically qualifying him for the final on just his second attempt. In the final, he threw a 21.93m for his fifth attempt at the Bird’s Nest, setting him apart from the pack with a 19cm lead. The win in Beijing marks Kovacs’ seventh first place victory so far in 2015 and he is the sixth United States thrower to win a world title. Leading up to the World Championships in Beijing, Kovacs led the pack throughout the season. He had a strong start at the UCLA Rafer Johnson/Jackie Joyner-Kersee Invitational in April where he claimed first place and improved his personal best distance. Kovacs continued this strong momentum into the 2015 IAAF Diamond League meets where he dominated the competition earning three first place finishes as well as a second and a fourth place. To add to his list of 2015 gold medals and first place finishes, Kovacs won gold at the USA Track & Field National Championships in June with a throw of 21.84m. One of Kovacs’ biggest victories during his outstanding 2015 season was at the IAAF Diamond League meet in Monaco in mid-July.

  • Women in the Olympic and Paralympic Games
    WOMEN IN THE OLYMPIC AND PARALYMPIC GAMES An Analysis of Participation and Leadership Opportunities April 2013 RESEARCH REPORT SHARP Center for Women & Girls Sport | Health | Activity | Research | Policy Foreword and Acknowledgments This study is the fourth report in the series that follows the progress of women in the Olympic and Paralympic movement. The first three reports were published by the Women’s Sports Foundation. This report is published by SHARP, the Sport, Health and Activity Research and Policy Center for Women and Girls. The report provides the most accurate, comprehensive and up-to-date examination of the participation trends among female Olympic and Paralympic athletes and the hiring and governance trends of Olympic and Paralympic governing bodies with respect to the number of women who hold leadership positions in these organizations. It is intended to provide governing bodies, athletes and policymakers at the national and international level with new and accurate information with an eye toward making the Olympic and Paralympic movement equitable for all. SHARP, the Sport, Health and Activity Research and Policy Center for Women and Girls, was established in 2010 as a new partnership between the Women’s Sports Foundation and University of Michigan’s School of Kinesiology and Institute for Research on Women & Gender. SHARP’s mission is to lead evidence-based research that enhances the scope, experience and sustainability of participation in sport, play and movement for women and girls. Leveraging the research leadership of the University of Michigan with the policy and programming expertise of the Women’s Sports Foundation, findings from SHARP research will better inform public engagement, advocacy and implementation to enable more women and girls to be active, healthy and successful.

  • The Risk of Dengue for Non-Immune Foreign Visitors to the 2016 Summer
    Ximenes et al. BMC Infectious Diseases (2016) 16:186 DOI 10.1186/s12879-016-1517-z RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access The risk of dengue for non-immune foreign visitors to the 2016 summer olympic games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Raphael Ximenes1, Marcos Amaku1, Luis Fernandez Lopez1,2, Francisco Antonio Bezerra Coutinho1, Marcelo Nascimento Burattini1,3, David Greenhalgh4, Annelies Wilder-Smith5, Claudio José Struchiner6 and Eduardo Massad1,7* Abstract Background: Rio de Janeiro in Brazil will host the Summer Olympic Games in 2016. About 400,000 non-immune foreign tourists are expected to attend the games. As Brazil is the country with the highest number of dengue cases worldwide, concern about the risk of dengue for travelers is justified. Methods: A mathematical model to calculate the risk of developing dengue for foreign tourists attending the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro in 2016 is proposed. A system of differential equation models the spread of dengue amongst the resident population and a stochastic approximation is used to assess the risk to tourists. Historical reported dengue time series in Rio de Janeiro for the years 2000-2015 is used to find out the time dependent force of infection, which is then used to estimate the potential risks to a large tourist cohort. The worst outbreak of dengue occurred in 2012 and this and the other years in the history of Dengue in Rio are used to discuss potential risks to tourists amongst visitors to the forthcoming Rio Olympics. Results: The individual risk to be infected by dengue is very much dependent on the ratio asymptomatic/ symptomatic considered but independently of this the worst month of August in the period studied in terms of dengue transmission, occurred in 2007.
