Seventeen male triathletes completed incremental swimming, cycling, and running tests to exhaustion. Heart rate (HR) and workload corresponding to aerobic and anaerobic thresholds, maximal workloads, and maximal HR (HRmax) in each exercise mode were analyzed. HR and workload were monitored throughout the race. The intensity distributions in three HR zones for each discipline and five workload zones in cycling and running were quantified. The subjects were then assigned to a fast or slow group based on the total race time (range, 2 h 07 min–2 h 41 min). The mean percentages of HRmax in the swimming, cycling, and running legs were 89.8% ± 3.7%, 91.1% ± 4.4%, and 90.7% ± 5.1%, respectively, for all participants. The mean percentage of HRmax and intensity distributions during the swimming and cycling legs were similar between groups.

Professor Cristina Mislán Professor Sandy Davidson Professor Amanda Hinnant Professor Becky Scott MASCULINITY AND THE NHL Acknowledgements I would like to begin by thanking my committee chair, Dr. Cristina Mislán, for her guidance and help throughout this project, and beyond. From the first class I took at Missouri, Mass Media Seminar, to the thesis itself, she encouraged me to see the world through different lenses and inspired a passion for cross-disciplined study. Her assistance was invaluable in completing this project. Next, I would like to thank my committee members: Dr. Sandy Davidson, Dr. Amanda Hinnant and Dr. Becky Scott. All three members provided insight and feedback into different portions of the project at its early stages and each one made the study stronger. Dr. Davidson’s tireless support and enthusiasm was infectious and her suggestion to explore the legal concerns the NHL might have about violence and head injuries led me to explore the commoditization of players.

  • It's a New Ballgame for Iconic City Sports Chain

    It's a New Ballgame for Iconic City Sports Chain

    It’s a new ballgame for iconic City Sports chain A City Sports store on Boylston Street in November, before it closed down. The athletic apparel chain declared bankruptcy late last year and shuttered its stores. By Jon Chesto GLOBE STAFF FEBRUARY 23, 2016 City Sports is getting back in the game. Two brothers who run a New Jersey-based soccer equipment retailer have embarked on an ambitious plan to revive the City Sports business, after buying the brand name and related intellectual property. Although beloved by a core customer base, City Sportsfiled for bankruptcy in 2015 and eventually closed after doing business in Boston for 32 years. Now the brothers, Brent and Blake Sonnek-Schmelz, say an e-commerce site is in the works, probably launching within the next few weeks. They hope to pick their first brick-and-mortar location for their new firm, City Sports USA, by the end of the year. The focus at the start, Brent Sonnek-Schmelz said, will be on locations in Boston and New York. For now, they’ll run City Sports out of the headquarters of their chain, Soccer Post, in Eatontown, N.J. But Brent Sonnek-Schmelz said they will be run as separate companies, with Soccer Post aimed at suburban consumers and City Sports targeting urban ones. The chief operating officer of the new City Sports company said the brothers were longtime City Sports customers, visiting stores in New York and Philadelphia. He said they were surprised to learn last November that the chain would close. The previous management tried to find a buyer for 18 of those stores, but two liquidation firms offered the best bid, and all 26 stores were shuttered.

    U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veteran Monthly Assistance Allowance for Disabled Veterans Training in Paralympic and Olympic Sports Program (VMAA) In partnership with the United States Olympic Committee and other Olympic and Paralympic entities within the United States, VA supports eligible service and non-service-connected military Veterans in their efforts to represent Team USA at the Paralympic Games, Olympic Games and other international sport competitions. The VA Office of National Veterans Sports Programs & Special Events provides a monthly assistance allowance for disabled Veterans training in Paralympic sports, as well as certain disabled Veterans selected for or competing with the national Olympic Team, as authorized by 38 U.S.C. 322(d) and Section 703 of the Veterans’ Benefits Improvement Act of 2008. Through the program, VA will pay a monthly allowance to a Veteran with either a service-connected or non-service-connected disability if the Veteran meets the minimum military standards or higher (i.e. Emerging Athlete or National Team) in his or her respective Paralympic sport at a recognized competition. In addition to making the VMAA standard, an athlete must also be nationally or internationally classified by his or her respective Paralympic sport federation as eligible for Paralympic competition. VA will also pay a monthly allowance to a Veteran with a service-connected disability rated 30 percent or greater by VA who is selected for a national Olympic Team for any month in which the Veteran is competing in any event sanctioned by the National Governing Bodies of the Olympic Sport in the United State, in accordance with P.L.

    Policy for Transgender and Non-Binary Inclusion

    USA Gymnastics POLICY FOR TRANSGENDER & NON-BINARY ATHLETE INCLUSION Updated October 2020 INTRODUCTION/PURPOSE USA Gymnastics supports diversity and inclusion in all aspects of gymnastics and is committed to providing a safe, supportive and welcoming environment for transgender and non-binary people within our community. USA Gymnastics has developed this policy and accompanying education in a proactive effort to help guide and support members of the gymnastics community. Transgender is an umbrella term used to describe people whose gender identity does not correspond with the sex they were assigned at birth. Many identities fall under the transgender umbrella, some of which are: • Transgender boys or men: Those who were assigned female at birth whose gender identity is male. • Transgender girls or women: Those who were assigned male at birth whose gender identity is female • Non-binary: Those who experience their gender identity and/or gender expression as falling outside the binary categories of male or female. Not all non-binary people identify as transgender. In all cases, it is critical to respect and listen to the individual and allow them to tell you how they identify. The goal of this policy is to provide direction to member clubs, meet directors, judges, parents, and transgender and non-binary athletes on how transgender and non-binary athletes may participate in competitive gymnastics. This policy will respect the privacy of affected individuals, is based on medical facts, and is consistent with applicable discrimination laws. Because we know this is an area of research that is continuing to grow and change, this policy will be reviewed and updated at least every 3 years.
