SCIENCE OF ATHLETICS

Image
The average healthy adult, asked to run as hard as they can for one mile, finishes in about 9 minutes. That same speed, you’d guess, is roughly what your body can sustain. Sabastian Sawe just ran 26 of those miles back to back, and each one took him 4 minutes 33 seconds. That is not jogging speed. That is sprint speed for most of us. He held it for 1 hour and 59 minutes and 30 seconds, and he was actually getting faster at the end. Your body has three knobs that decide how fast you can run for a long time. The first is how much oxygen your lungs and heart can deliver to your muscles per minute. Scientists call this number VO2 max. A normal adult sits around 30 to 45. A fit recreational runner gets to 50 or 60. Elite marathoners are at 70-plus. Sawe’s is in that range. The interesting part isn’t the number itself, it’s what percentage of that ceiling he can hold for the full race. In a 2020 study of the 16 best male distance runners on earth (commissioned by Nike’s Breaking2...

GATHERING

 “A man who calls his kinsmen to a feast does not do so to save them from starving. They all have food in their own homes. When we gather together in the moonlit village ground it is not because of the moon. Every man can see it in his own compound. We come together because it is good for kinsmen to do so”.  Chinua Achebe, Things Fall Apart

 “I am looking for friends. What does that mean - tame?" "It is an act too often neglected," said the fox. "It means to establish ties." "To establish ties?" "Just that," said the fox. "To me, you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you, on your part, have no need of me. To you I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me, then we shall need each other. To me, you will be unique in all the world. To you, I shall be unique in all the world.... Antoine de Saint-ExupΓ©ry, The Little Prince

  One day a man said to God , “God, I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like.” God showed the man two doors. Inside the first one, in the middle of the room, was a large round table with a large pot of vegetable stew . It smelled delicious and made the man’s mouth water, but the people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles and each found it possible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful, but because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths. The man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering. God said, “You have seen Hell.” Behind the second door, the room appeared exactly the same. There was the large round table with the large pot of wonderful vegetable stew that made the man’s mouth water. The people had the same long-handled spoons, but they were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking. The...
