The document discusses the history and benefits of hiking. It notes that while humans used to spend more time in nature, now most time is spent in towns. School trips involving nature activities first began in Switzerland in the late 19th century and spread throughout Europe. The document then outlines various tips for hiking, including proper packing of one's rucksack, wearing comfortable hiking shoes, getting information about the terrain before hiking, choosing appropriate clothing, not hiking alone, maintaining an even pace, stopping periodically, and respecting the environment.
POWER POINT ATHLETICS
Paola Carmona is a 3rd year student. Athletics involves running faster, jumping higher, and throwing farther. The traditional stadium for athletics has a 400m oval track surrounded by an interior space used for field events like jumps and throws. Some winter competitions are held on a smaller 200m track where distances and some events are adjusted due to limited space. The first regulated competitions were the ancient Greek Olympics starting in 776 BC which included the pentathlon of discus, javelin, running, long jump and wrestling. The International Amateur Athletics Federation was founded in 1913 to establish rules and recognize record-setting athletes.
Chapter 1 athletics
This document provides an overview of track and field athletics. It begins with a brief history, noting that athletics originated in Ancient Greece and were featured in the first Olympic Games. It then describes the key components of the sport, including the oval running track and various track and field events. Finally, it provides more detailed explanations of specific track events like sprints, middle-distance races, long-distance races, hurdles, and relays. Rules and terminology related to running events are also outlined.
Running
Running can effectively improve cardiovascular fitness and muscular endurance. It is a simple activity that can be done anywhere and adapted for different training intensities. The document recommends warming up and stretching before running to prevent injuries. Running engages the quadriceps, hamstrings, calves and stabilizer muscles in the hips, back, abdomen and arms. Risks include ankle, knee and shin injuries as well as stress fractures. Benefits are improved heart and lung health, toned muscles, increased energy and weight management. Light shoes, shorts or pants, and water are the basic equipment needed. Consistency in training and combining workouts are keys to success. Running is a great full-body exercise for weight loss, fitness and health.
Hydration & Fluid replacement
Fluid intake is important for athletes to prevent dehydration during physical activity. According to the document, athletes should aim to drink regularly during exercise rather than waiting until they feel thirsty. The amount of fluid needed varies depending on genetics, body size, fitness level, environment, and exercise intensity. Sports drinks can help replace lost fluids and electrolytes while also providing carbohydrates, but should be consumed in moderation. Dehydration of just 1-2% of body weight can negatively impact performance, so athletes should drink before, during, and after exercise to stay hydrated.
ATHLETICS
The document provides background information on the sport of athletics/track and field. It discusses how the sport originated in Ancient Greece during the first Olympic Games in 776 BC, with a single footrace event.

Both activities provide physical health benefits like improved cardiovascular health and muscle strength, as well as mental health benefits such as reduced stress and enhanced cognitive function.
Running
Running has been a human activity for millions of years. Key events in the history of running include Pheidippides' famous run in 490 BC and the introduction of the marathon event in the 1896 Olympics. There are health benefits to running such as weight loss, improved cardiovascular health, and reduced disease risk. Proper running form includes an upright posture, arm movement, and adjusting stride based on distance. Common injuries can result from changes in volume or pace, or from repetitive stress without recovery.
Orienteering
Orienteering Is an outdoor activity where participant’s goal is finding the various checkpoints (with specific sequence) in a pre set course using a especially created detailed map and the compass to navigate in an unfamiliar terrain.
Can be done as a fun recreational activity or a very competitive sport requiring navigational skills, techniques, and decision making skills to bring a person from one pace to another at the least time possible.
Barriers to physical activity participation among adults
Given the health benefits of regular PA, adults insufficiently participate in it. This reality clearly points to the need to help adults become more physically active. There are barriers that keep adults from being, or becoming, physically active regularly. Understanding common barriers to PA and creating strategies to overcome them may help make it part of daily life.
Types of athletics
The document describes the main types of athletic events which are track and field, road running, cross country running, and race walking. Track and field events are divided into track events including sprints, middle distance, long distance, relays and hurdling, and field events consisting of jump events like long jump, triple jump, high jump, and pole vault, as well as throw events such as shot put, discus, javelin, and hammer throw. Road running involves long distance runs from 5km to marathons. Cross country running takes place on varied natural terrain over courses of 4-12km. Race walking requires one foot to be in contact with the floor at all times.

marathon
The marathon is a long-distance foot race of 42.195 kilometers that originated from a Greek messenger named Pheidippides announcing a victory over Persia. It became an Olympic event in 1921 and now includes over 800 organized races annually with some having tens of thousands of participants. Training programs typically last five to six months, including long runs of 20 miles or more and 40 miles per week on average, under the guidance of a health professional. Five of the largest marathons in Boston, New York City, Chicago, London, and Berlin make up the biannual World Marathon Majors series.
Understanding Running Physiology
Anand Hatwalné gave a presentation on understanding running physiology and improving running efficiency. He discussed how the body produces energy through different systems, including ATP-PC, anaerobic glycolysis, and aerobic pathways. He emphasized the importance of training the aerobic energy system through easy, high-volume running to increase endurance. Other key points included increasing lactate threshold, VO2 max, and mitochondrial density in muscle fibers to optimize running performance and efficiency.
Throwing events, introduction
The document summarizes four standard throwing events in track and field: shot put, discus, hammer, and javelin. It describes that each event involves implements of different weights and shapes that are hurled for distance. It provides details on techniques and regulations for the shot put and javelin throw, such as the shot put involving putting a metal ball from a circle using one hand, and javelins requiring a minimum weight and length that are thrown as far as possible using one arm.
Orienteering
Orienteering is an outdoor sport where competitors navigate through unfamiliar terrain using a map and compass to locate control points. It began in Sweden in the late 19th century as military training and has grown into a competitive sport open to civilians. Participants use maps, compasses, and control description sheets to navigate through forests and find orange and white kites marking the control points, checking in using a finger stick. The goal is to locate all controls in the fastest time while using the map's symbols like contour lines to determine elevation changes across the landscape.
Introduction to the energy systems
The document discusses the aerobic and anaerobic energy pathways and their contribution to movement. The aerobic pathway uses oxygen to break down fuels for energy over a long duration and low intensity. The anaerobic pathways do not use oxygen, with the ATP-PC system providing a rapid burst of energy lasting 10 seconds and the lactic acid system providing energy for 2-3 minutes during high intensity exercise before fatigue sets in. The document outlines the different fuels, storage sites, and processes of each energy system.
boxing
Boxing is a combat sport that involves two individuals throwing punches at each other with gloved hands. It has a long history dating back to ancient times in cultures like ancient Greece and Rome. Over the centuries, boxing has evolved from informal bare-knuckle fights to a regulated sport with standardized rules and weight classes. Today, boxing occurs professionally, with fights motivated by money and promotion, and as an Olympic sport, with amateur boxing featured in the Olympics.

Aquatic exercises
Aquatic exercise involves exercising in water and utilizes properties of water like buoyancy and viscosity. It can benefit those with conditions like arthritis, obesity, and low back pain by reducing stress on joints while allowing freedom of movement. It is also effective for neurological issues like stroke and spinal cord injuries by facilitating mobility with buoyancy support. Key types of aquatic exercises include strengthening exercises, balance exercises, and gait training in water.
Outdoor recreational activities
This document summarizes various outdoor recreational activities. It describes mountain climbing as involving scrambling and short stretches of rock climbing in the mountains, as well as crossing glaciers. Cycling is summarized as using bicycles for transport, recreation, exercise or sport, and providing health and environmental benefits over motor vehicles. Scuba diving is summarized as using a self-contained underwater breathing apparatus to breathe underwater, allowing greater freedom of movement than other diving methods.
Recreational Activities
Recreation is the expenditure of time with an intent to gain some refreshment. It is a break from monotony and a diversion from the daily routine. It is a positive change from the stereotypical lifestyle and involves an active participation in some entertaining activity.
The Sharing Economy
The document discusses the rise of the sharing economy. It notes that sharing services now reach 40,000 people per day across 30,000 cities and 192 countries. The sharing economy has grown due to factors like the recession, excess waste and unused goods, information overload, and a new generation that values sustainability and community over consumerism. Examples mentioned include crowdfunding sites like Kickstarter, local marketplaces like Etsy, and communities formed around sharing items, skills and physical spaces. The document argues this shift represents more than a fad and will continue transforming economic and social systems.
