uh, oh. potential bad news for all those people who take delight in telling runners that walking is just as healthy:
"But a new study published today said moderate exercise such as a brisk walk five times a week has no impact on the risk of dying from heart disease.
Only vigorous exercise such as jogging and hiking seems to make a difference, says Dr John Yarnell of Queens' University in Belfast."
those with an eye for detail will note that the study designers defined "moderate" exercise as, "...golf, digging and dancing."
“"it is hard to be brave," said piglet, sniffing slightly, "when you're only a Very Small Animal." rabbit, who had begun to write very busily, looked up and said: "it is because you are a very small animal that you will be Useful in the adventure before us."”
the complete tales & poems of winnie the poohthis site chronicles the continuing adventures of my son, odin, who was unexpectedly born on the fourth of july at 25 weeks gestation, weighing 1 pound 7 ounces.
he's quite a fighter and you can always send him a postcard to the most current address listed here if you're inspired by his adventures. see the postcard project/google maps mashup to see a map of the postcards.
if you're new, you can browse the archives to catch up. and don't forget to watch a few movies that i made while we were in the neonatal intensive care unit. or if you want the abridged version and you can find a copy, you can read about his adventures in the november 2005 issue of parents magazine.
