Long-distance running

In high school she developed an eating disorder and pushed her body to its limits in long-distance running, skiing, tennis, cycling and other sports. She also led wilderness backpacking and canoe trips. 

Discuss the different patterns of fuel use in short- and long-distance running. 

Fiber channel-arbitrated loop (FC-AL) A high-speed interface protocol permitting high data transfer rates, large numbers of attached devices, and long-distance runs to remote devices using a combination of fiber optic and copper components. 

An in-line detonation flame arrester must be used whenever there is a possibility of a detonation occurring. This is always a strong possibility in vent manifold (vapor collection) systems, where long pipe runs provide sufficient run-up distances for a deflagration-to-detonation transition to occur. Figure 3-3 shows the installation of in-line arresters of the detonation type in a vent manifold system. 

A pipeline is the cheapest form of transportation to operate, but it requires a large capital investment and therefore a large throughput. Until 1969 the long-distance pipelines carried almost exclusively natural gas or petroleum products. In that year a pipeline running 850 miles (1,370 km) from Texas to Iowa began carrying anhydrous ammonia to markets in the Midwest. Since then other ammonia pipelines have been completed. 

The radiation detector is located some distance from the readout. A shielded coaxial cable transmits the detector output to the amplifier. The output signal of the detector may be as low as 0.01 volts. A total gain of 1000 is needed to increase this signal to 10 volts, which is a usable output pulse voltage. There is always a pickup of noise in the long cable run this noise can amount to 0.001 volts. 

The 1960s brought.. . the realisation that running long distances was no more harmful to women than to men. Since this realisation did not extend to governing bodies of athletics, the decade was one of unofficial female participation, particularly in the marathon. 

Contrary to big pharma, the small and medium, chemistry-poor biotech companies, which often are betting on just one compound, are not willing to run the risk of a long-distance relationship that could go wrong. A number of US and Canadian CROs located on the West Coast of North America, where there is also a high concentration of virtual pharmaceutical companies, are specifically targeting this niche market. 

The literature does reach a consensus on one point— creatine does not enhance aerobic activity, which is required in endurance sports such as cross-country running, basketball, or long-distance cycling. However, to the extent that these sports may require short bursts of activity, such as sprints at the end of a cycling or running race, creatine may offer athletes some performance gains. 

The same distinctions hold in humans. Sprinters and marathon runners have different proportions of muscle fibers, and therefore different metabolisms. Sprinters have relatively more fast white fibers, and can run very rapidly, but not for long distances. Marathon runners, on the other hand, have more slow red fibers and can carry out aerobic metabolism for very long periods of time, although they can t go as fast. Well-trained, world-class runners may have as much as 90 percent of their leg muscle of one type or the other, depending on their sport. Some sports, such as basketball and soccer, involve both aerobic endurance and anaerobic sprinting these athletes tend to have both types of muscle fiber. Untrained individuals have about 50 percent of each type. The relative contributions of training and heredity to each type of metabolism remain unknown, although both play some part. 

Future 42 V electric subsystems will be greatly enhanced using DLCs. Their long life and high cycle life are ideal for the variable power load required of new electrical subsystems. Localized load leveling of pulse loads will reduce the need to run high-current wires for long distances in the vehicle.
