  • MARATHON (WO)MAN… Made in Athènes… Since 1896 !
    NEWSLETTER N°13 JUILLET 2021 CÔTE DE JADE ATHLETIC CLUB Convivialité | Entraide | Performance L’édito d’été d’un triathlète impliqué, Samuel Brégeot "Depuis quelques semaines, on se réjouit de voir que le sport en compétition redémarre. Tout le monde connaît le triathlon avec le traditionnel enchaînement Natation / Vélo de route / Course à pied (CAP). Mais la section est tout d'abord définie comme un sport de disciplines enchaînées. On pratique de multiples épreuves combinées : - le Cross triathlon (on remplace le vélo de route par un VTT et la CAP se déroule toujours en mode trail, pour ceux qui préfèrent la nature au bitume)... - l'Aquathlon (natation / CAP) pour ceux qui n'aiment pas le vélo... - le Duathlon (CAP / vélo / CAP) pour ceux qui ne savent pas nager ... - le Vétathlon est la version nature de ce dernier avec du VTT à la place du vélo de route... - le Run&Bike par équipe de 2 pour ceux qui adorent sauter sur leur vélo et piquer des sprints... - le SwimRun en binôme où tu nages avec tes chaussures et tu cours avec ta combi, - des épreuves en équipe (triathlon, duathlon) ou en relais (chacun fait son sport de prédilection)... - le Swim&Bike, euh non ce sport n'existe pas (pas encore ) !!! Bien-sûr toutes ces épreuves sont proposées avec toute une palette de distances. Du triathlon XS (300m de nat' + 10km de vélo + 2,5km de Cap) jusqu'au XL, plus connu sous le nom d'Ironman (3,8km de nat' + 180km de vélo + 42km de CAP). Les pratiques sont très variées et c'est ce qui fait le charme de ce sport.

  • Updated 2019 Completemedia
    April 15, 2019 Dear Members of the Media, On behalf of the Boston Athletic Association, principal sponsor John Hancock, and all of our sponsors and supporters, we welcome you to the City of Boston and the 123rd running of the Boston Marathon. As the oldest annually contested marathon in the world, the Boston Marathon represents more than a 26.2-mile footrace. The roads from Hopkinton to Boston have served as a beacon for well over a century, bringing those from all backgrounds together to celebrate the pursuit of athletic excellence. From our early beginnings in 1897 through this year’s 123rd running, the Boston Marathon has been an annual tradition that is on full display every April near and far. We hope that all will be able to savor the spirit of the Boston Marathon, regardless whether you are an athlete or volunteer, spectator or member of the media. Race week will surely not disappoint. The race towards Boylston Street will continue to showcase some of the world’s best athletes. Fronting the charge on Marathon Monday will be a quartet of defending champions who persevered through some of the harshest weather conditions in race history twelve months ago. Desiree Linden, the determined and resilient American who snapped a 33-year USA winless streak in the women’s open division, returns with hopes of keeping her crown. Linden has said that last year’s race was the culmination of more than a decade of trying to tame the beast of Boston – a race course that rewards those who are both patient and daring.

  • SOT - Randalls Island - July 3-4/ OT Los Angeles - September 12-13
    1964 MEN Trials were held in Los Angeles on September 12/13, some 5 weeks before the Games, after semi-final Trials were held at Travers Island in early July with attendances of 14,000 and 17,000 on the two days. To give the full picture, both competitions are analyzed here. SOT - Randalls Island - July 3-4/ OT Los Angeles - September 12-13 OT - 100 Meters - September 12, 16.15 Hr 1. 5. Bob Hayes (Florida A&M) 10.1 2. 2. Trenton Jackson (Illinois) 10.2 3. 7. Mel Pender (US-A) 10.3 4. 8. Gerry Ashworth (Striders) [10.4 –O] 10.3e 5. 6. Darel Newman (Fresno State) [10.4 – O] 10.3e 6. 1. Charlie Greene (Nebraska) 10.4 7. 3. Richard Stebbins (Grambling) 10.4e 8. 4. Bernie Rivers (New Mexico) 10.4e Bob Hayes had emerged in 1962, after a 9.3y/20.1y double at the '61 NAIA, and inside 3 seasons had stamped himself as the best 100 man of all-time. However, in the AAU he injured himself as he crossed the line, and he was in the OT only because of a special dispensation. In the OT race Newman started well but soon faded and Hayes, Jackson and Pender edged away from the field at 30m, with Hayes' power soon drawing clear of the others. He crossed the line 5ft ahead, still going away, and the margin of 0.1 clearly flattered Jackson. A time of 10.3 would have been a fairer indication for both Jackson and Ashworth rather than the official version of 10.4, while Stebbins and Rivers (neither officially timed) are listed at 10.4e from videotape.

  • For Personal Use Only Use Personal for O Increased Leverage Covenant Ceiling to 2.50X (From 2.0X); and O Remaining Covenants (Interest Cover and Gearing) Unchanged
    ASX/media release 26 March 2012 UPDATE: DEBT FACILITY & ORGANISATIONAL RESTRUCTURE Leading Australian retail food brand manager and franchisor, Retail Food Group Limited (RFG or the Company), today provided the following Update. Acquisition Opportunity During the 2011 AGM Presentation, the Company advised that: • a plethora of acquisition and other growth opportunities continue to present themselves; and • such opportunity, where meritorious, was being actively investigated. This opportunity has more recently resulted in acquisition of the Evolution Coffee Roasters Group in September 2011, and the conditional agreement to acquire the Pizza Capers Gourmet Kitchen franchise system (announced on the 28 th February 2012). While the Company continues to take a conservative and measured approach, acquisitions will continue to be a significant component of the RFG growth platform and ultimately will result in both increased outlets as well as the number of franchise systems under the Company’s stewardship. Such that RFG remains at the forefront of franchising best practice and is otherwise appropriately positioned to partake of ongoing acquisition opportunity, enhanced organic growth and development of its franchise systems, the Company has concluded the following initiatives: Reset of Banking Facility As a feature of its capital management platform, RFG announces that is has resolved terms to increase facility quantum and extend the present maturity date of the Company’s debt facilities with the National Australia Bank. The revised facility terms include: • increase in Senior Debt Revolving Facility from $95m to $135m; • extension of present maturity date from September 2013 to 30 September 2014; • increased flexibility, including: o voluntary debt retirement and redraw; For personal use only o increased leverage covenant ceiling to 2.50x (from 2.0x); and o remaining covenants (Interest Cover and Gearing) unchanged.
