Current knowledge of the physiological, biomechanical, and sensory effects of the cycle to run transition in the Olympic triathlon (1.5 km, 10 km, 40 km) is reviewed and implications for the training of junior and elite triathletes are discussed. Triathlon running elicits hyperventilation, increased heart rate, decreased pulmonary compliance, and exercise induced hypoxaemia. This may be due to ...

Let Kk, Ck, Tk, and Pk denote a complete graph on k vertices, a cycle on k vertices, a tree on k + 1 vertices, and a path on k + 1 vertices, respectively. Let Km−H be the graph obtained from Km by removing the edges set E(H) of the graph H (H is a subgraph of Km). A sequence S is potentially Km − H-graphical if it has a realization containing a Km − H as a subgraph. Let σ(Km − H,n) denote the s...

The diurnal cycles of rainfall in 5-km grid-spacing convection-resolving and 22-km grid-spacing nonconvectionresolving configurations of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model are compared to see if significant improvements can be obtained by using fine enough grid spacing to explicitly resolve convection. Diurnally averaged Hovmöller diagrams, spatial correlation coefficients compute...

We prove that any r-coloring of the edges of Km contains a monochromatic even cycle, where m = 3r + 1 if r is odd and m = 3r if r is even. We also prove that Km−1 has an r-coloring without monochromatic even cycles. An easy exercise, perhaps folkloristic, says that in any r-coloring of the edges of K2r+1 there is a monochromatic odd cycle (and this is not true for K2r). This note explores what ...
