    Aside from crowds of hikers, campers, and general tourists, there’s a dark side to many that can be found in the great states of Oregon, Washington and Idaho.

In this third installment of National Park Mysteries & Disappearances, Steve Stockton, along with Bill Melder, presents the listener with a side to these locations you've never heard before. 
     
     
     
    So, put aside your nature guidebooks, forget about the pretty leaves, and the relaxing streams as well as the miniature golf, the funnel cakes and all the other "tourist traps" and prepare for a wild ride on the dark side of these major national parks.

    Peter Alliss was a truly monumental figure in the world of golf. His voice was the soundtrack to many who have paid even the scantest attention to the old game. This book records Peter's vivid recollections of a life well lived, looking back on his double-edged career in sport and media, one that is unlike any other and is surely never to be repeated.
    Sit back and listen to Peter Alliss do what he did best: ramble on about this and that in that famous voice of his, drawing sharp and funny observations from disparate quarters of life before inevitably tying everything neatly together and returning to the subject of golf. His memory for long-passed names and distant places remained extraordinarily sharp.
    He was also a man of his age which, naturally, meant there were more than a few facets of modern life he found confusing and exasperating. This, however, is surely true for any of us who have lived beyond the point where we wake up each day wondering what we ought to do with our lives.
    He appreciated his good fortune at being able to make a living from his 'ramblings' while, at the same time, possessing an acute awareness of his rare talent for finding the appropriate word or phrase while winging it over a television picture. His belief that, sometimes, silence is more eloquent than words flies in the noisy face of much modern broadcasting. He was all the more appreciated by many of us for sticking to this conviction and for daring to hold firm in the face of changing convention. Peter is gone now, but the spirit of kindness in which he lived his life reverberates still.

    Team sports are more than just games played with a ball; they are complex activities that rely heavily on collaboration, coordination, and mutual trust. Unlike individual sports, team sports require players to come together and work as one, making each person's performance integral to the team's success. This chapter will explore the foundational elements of team sports, the importance of effective teamwork, and how players can hone the skills necessary to thrive in a group setting. 
    One of the first aspects to understand about team sports is the importance of team dynamics. Team dynamics refers to how individuals interact, communicate, and influence one another within a group. A team's success is often determined by how well these dynamics function. A positive team dynamic can lead to smooth play, high morale, and ultimately, better results. In contrast, poor team dynamics can hinder progress and create friction among players. Building a strong team dynamic takes time, but with practice, teams can become more cohesive and effective. 
    Effective communication is at the heart of every successful team. Whether it's on the field, court, or rink, clear and constant communication helps players coordinate their movements, share information, and adjust to changing situations. Players must be able to communicate verbally and non-verbally, signaling intentions and reacting quickly to the flow of the game. Miscommunication can result in missed opportunities, turnovers, or even goals for the opposing team. Thus, improving communication skills is crucial for both individual players and the team as a whole.

    Today’s business leaders are always on the lookout for the information and tools to help them build high-performing teams, to lead with purpose, to remain engaged and to win the long game. Authors Sébastien Sasseville and Gabriel Renaud masterfully transform the lessons learned in the mind-blowing Race Across America into concrete, actionable and relatable business insights.
    		 
    When Sébastien Sasseville, an athlete with type 1 diabetes, decided to take part in the Race Across America solo, he knew he was embarking on the most difficult ultra-cycling race in the world. What he didn’t realize was that this experience, and the work needed to be done ahead of it, would inform his thinking around a team-building model that had application beyond sports and deep into workplaces and boardrooms.
    		 
    This crossing of the United States from west to east, in a time trial of no more than 12 days, forces the riders to stay in the saddle for about 21 hours a day. The challenge is impossible to accomplish without an exceptional team that follows and supports the cyclist night and day.
    		 
    Together, Sébastien and co-author Gabriel Renaud, a high-performance athlete, corporate trainer and leader of the race team, have taken the model they used to build the Race Across America team and written Building Unstoppable Teams, a tool kit for building highly engaged teams that can accomplish the exceptional.

    WINNER: Vikki Orvice Women’s Sports Writing Award, Charles Tyrwhitt Sports Book Awards
     
    ‘I rode back down the hill to the athlete’s village. Some of Team Scotland had been watching on the big screen and I arrived to hugs of congratulations. I went inside for a shower and ceremoniously dropped my heart rate monitor into the bin. It was the first day of the rest of my life.’
     
    A little before 1.30 p.m. on Sunday 21 July 2013, Lee Craigie crossed the finish line at Cathkin Braes in the southern outskirts of Glasgow several minutes ahead of her nearest competitor to become the British cross-country mountain bike champion. Lee’s win was the culmination of seven years of training and sacrifice, but it marked the beginning of the end of her competitive career; less than a year later, at the same venue, this time representing her native Scotland at the Commonwealth Games, she crossed the line and quit professional bike racing for good.
     
    Lee Craigie is one of Scotland’s great bike racers, yet she has accomplished much more since retiring. In Other Ways to Win she tells her story of growing up near Glasgow and discovering the freedom of cycling – skipping French lessons and heading off into the Campsie Fells to see just how far she could ride. These teenage adventures established cycling as the thread which would run through her life – not only through her racing life and into a new life of two-wheeled adventure, but also through the positive impact she would have on the lives of others, particularly encouraging other women through her work with the Adventure Syndicate. Written with breathtaking honesty, she recounts epic adventures along the Tour Divide, Silk Road and the Highland Trail 550, and examines themes of friendship, loss, identity and the power of the outdoors – and of course cycling.
     
    Lee's story is a welcome reminder that there is more than one way to win at cycling – and life.
