Beschreibung

Cycling Records explores the fascinating history of cycling's most impressive achievements, examining the blend of athletic ability, technological advancements, and strategic thinking that drives record-breaking performances. From the grueling stage races of the Tour de France, Giro d'Italia, and Vuelta a España to the precise speed of time trials and the extreme distances of ultra-endurance cycling, the book delves into the quantifiable data and the stories behind these milestones. One intriguing aspect is how seemingly small changes in equipment or training can lead to significant improvements in performance, highlighting the constant evolution of the sport.

 
This book uniquely combines historical context with sports science, offering a data-driven perspective on cycling performance. It analyzes power outputs, speeds, and physiological metrics to understand what separates a good performance from a record-setting one.

 
The book is structured in three parts, beginning with the fundamentals of record-setting, then examining specific records in stage racing, time trials, and ultra-endurance cycling, and concluding with an analysis of trends and future possibilities. This comprehensive approach makes the book valuable for cycling enthusiasts, athletes, and anyone interested in sports history and the science of athletic prowess.

    A riveting look behind the mask of an NHL goalie, The Save of My Life offers understanding and hope to anyone living with mental illness 
    By the time he was twenty-two years old, goaltender Corey Hirsch had realized his childhood dream of playing in the NHL, won an Olympic medal and drunk from the Stanley Cup. While he excelled on the ice, out of the net Hirsch was plagued by persistent dark thoughts and ceaseless anxiety. On days when he could barely get out of bed, he was able to push aside the endless loop of dark thoughts running inside his brain long enough to win a game. But as soon as he got back home, the agonizing cycle started all over again. And it continued, until finally he was able to confide in a team trainer who helped him get the professional treatment he needed. Diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder, Hirsch was able to embark on the rocky road to recovery. As one of the first professional athletes to talk openly about mental health, Hirsch wrote about his OCD for the Players’ Tribune. His piece remains one of their most-read articles ever. 
    As Hirsch says, “I am not insane. I am not a bad person. I am not weak. I have an illness, and there is a treatment.”
