Staff and Wire Reports Texas A&M’s All-American hurdler Larry Wade was select ed Tuesday to compete in the 110-meter hurdles for the South Track and Field Team at the 1995 United States Olympic Festival. Wade, who will be a junior in the Fall, finished second in the 110-m hurdles at the NCAA Outdoor Championships in June. His time of 13.41 seconds set a school record and tied the Southwest Conference record set by the University of Houston’s Cletus Clark in 1984. Wade’s finish broke the track record of 13.54 seconds, despite the fact that he was running with an ankle injury. Wade won the SWC outdoor title in April and also placed third in the 400- meter hurdles. This performance followed a second-place finish in the 55 at the SWC Indoor Tournament with a time of 7.25 seconds in February, Wade placed third in the 55-meter hurdles at the NCAA Indoor Championships. In Wade’s freshman year, he finished third in the 110 hur dles at the SWC Outdoor C h a m p i - onships’ with a time of 14.06 seconds. “We’re very pleased that Larry has been chosen to rep resent the South team the Olympic Festival,” A&M Head Track Coach Ted Nelson said. “His se lection is a plus for our track pro gram. The Olympic Festival is one of the premier track competi tions in the United States, and we know Larry will represent Texas A&M well.’ Wade XV1LWVY A J VV ili J. ABACUS 3ter hurdles.

DeAun Woosley Guest Columnist O K, so you’re exercising three times a week for 30 minutes, you don’t get sick very often and your energy level is above normal. Are you really physically fit? Studies have shown that optimal health is di rectly related to how physically fit you are. In a recent study, the cardio vascular fitness of more than 10,000 men was measured us ing a minimum treadmill exer cise test. It was determined that those who were moderate to highly fit lived longer than those with low fitness levels. So while most of the health benefits of physical activity are gained by moving from a low lev el of fitness to a moderate one, there is much to be gained from progressing to the highest level of aerobic fitness. So how do you move into a higher level of fit ness? Here are some examples: • Instead of just fast walk ing 3-4 miles per hour, (which is a 15-18 minute mile) in crease your speed to a 12-14 minute mile or walk up a hill, stairs or bleachers. • Instead of your same old jogging routine, alternate jog ging with running or even sprinting. Inter vals of jogging a lap or a block, then running a half lap or block boost your fitness and endurance level a great deal. • Try adding propulsion in ment before, during and afe exercise is essential to avoids step classes. Propulsion moves are hopping or jumping on the step, not on the floor. Hopping or jumping on the floor is called “high impact.” Propulsion, along with increasing your step height, increases your heart rate as well as the number of calories you burn. • Outdoor cycling at greater than 10 miles per hour is much more vigorous than sta tionary cycling. • High impact aerobic class es burn more calories than low impact, but only if your knees and feet are in great shape. It’s summertime and you need to exercise before that big date or exam. You head out at 4 p.m. Before you finish the first mile, you body is on fire, your face feels like it may explode with heat and you are sweating profusely. It’s possible that your tem perature could be as high as five degrees Fahrenheit above normal. This is the danger zone, and fatigue and heat ill ness will take over. The following tips will help you protect yourself from the onset of heat illness: • Hydration: Fluid replace- hydration. Don’t wait until j’ are thirsty; drink 6-8 ounces fluid every 15 to 20 minu!; during exercise. Consume dk: fluids than you think you set before and after exercise. • Exercise Intensity: Red. the intensity of your work particularly the first few time •Temperature: Whent! temperature is above 85c; grees Fahrenheit, schedule}; workout early in the morni: or in the evening after the si goes down. High humidity a: high temperatures are a da: gerous combination. • Fitness: Physical traini: and heat acclimation - t! process of becoming adjusted your environment — cani: crease your blood volume, he ing to regulate temperatii’ more effectively. The acclime. zation process can be complex in seven to 14 days of repeal; heat exposure. *'■ Clothing: Wear minimal clothing to provide a greats skin surface area for heatdiss: pation. Your clothing shoulds lightweight, loose fitting, ligt colored (to reflect the sun; rays) and absorbent (such a cotton). • Rest: Know when to sa; “no” to exercise. Inadequai sleep, lack of food or fluids m make exercising in any cond tions, let alone extreme temps atures, difficult. Be sure you had plenty of all three befoi working out.
