Running, jumping, swimming, throwing, skating, skiing... they should be physically demanding for an athlete.... all of those sports are basically the major sports at the olympics. the 100m sprint is one of the most popular events. and how can ... |

Another good one is On the Battlefields Vl.1 and Vl.2. They are compilations of various Maclean's articles from WW1 and WW2. Both are ... |
