Cool Running | The Couch-to-5K ® Running Plan By Josh ClarkPosted Saturday, 1 January, 2011 Couch to 5K ® | Beginning Running First off, you may be asking, "exactly how many miles is a 5K?" A 5K is 3.1 miles. We're here to help you achieve your goal of beginning to run your first 5K. Too many people have been turned off of running simply by trying to start off too fast. You should ease into your 5K training plan gradually. It's easy to get impatient, and you may feel tempted to skip ahead in the program, but hold yourself back. Start Your 5K Training | A Few Minutes Each Week Each session should take about 20 or 30 minutes, three times a week. Be sure to space out these three days throughout the week to give yourself a chance to rest and recover between efforts. Run for time or run for distance There are two ways to follow this Couch to 5K ® training program, to measure your runs by time or by distance. Before setting out, make sure to precede each training session with a five-minute warmup walk or jog. 5K Training Schedule

I read a lot of threads about being lonely, sad or unhappy in ge FitLink - The Premier Online Fitness Community NZ unveils Stonehenge replica Nestled into the verdant hills of the New Zealand region of the Wairarapa is the world's newest "Stonehenge" but this henge is no mere pastiche. Instead, Stonehenge Aotearoa, which opened this weekend, is a full-scale adaptation of its Salisbury Plain ancestor, built to work for the Antipodes. The aim of the Kiwi Stonehenge is to help people rediscover the basics of astronomy. "You can read as much as you like in a book how the sun and the moon work, how people use stars to navigate by, or to foretell the seasons," says Richard Hall, president of the Phoenix Astronomical Society which built the henge. "You stand here amongst the henge and you show people exactly how it works. To build Stonehenge Aotearoa, about an hour's drive from New Zealand's capital of Wellington, the society received a government grant of NZ$56,500. The astronomical society's volunteers supplied 11,000 hours of labour over the 18 months the henge took to build. Giants' shoulders Difficult interpretation

- Geek Chic - Custom, Handcrafted Furniture & Accessories fo MovableType Successfully Installed on Windows XP To be honest, I don’t know too much about Perl. However, to make the best weblog system work – Movable Type, I installed Perl onto my Windows XP machine from scretch. I believe I am not alone to install MT to Windows XP machines – although I believe there will not be too many people doing so – so I’d like to record the steps for other’s reference. It is also a good resource for myself if I need to rebuild the server.

Screen refresh rate in Windows 7 does not apply the user selecte Certain monitors report a TV-compatibility timing of 59.94Hz. Therefore, Windows 7 exposes two frequencies, 59Hz and 60Hz, for every resolution that is supported at that timing. The 59Hz setting makes sure that a TV-compatible timing is always available for an application such as Windows Media Center. The 60Hz setting maintains compatibility for applications that expect 60Hz. In Windows 7, when a user selects 60Hz, the OS stores a value of 59.94Hz. However, 59Hz is shown in the Screen refresh rate in Control Panel, even though the user selected 60Hz. No action is needed. This behavior is by design for monitors and TVs that report only 59.94Hz but not 60Hz. This KB article describes the case in which a monitor or TV reports 59.94Hz. 23.976Hz, but not 24Hz 29.970Hz, but not 30Hz 47.952Hz, but not 48Hz 71.928Hz, but not 72Hz 119.880Hz, but not 120Hz Steps to reproduce the problem Right-click the windows desktop, and then click Personalize. The Monitor tab still shows 59 Hertz.
