The biggest key of all will be to gradually increase your mileage, especially that of your weekend long run.

Lastly, we're going to have you running two low-key races to get the feel of competition before the big day. Intermediate You regularly run 20 to 30 miles a week, and have done so for a year or more.

Now that I have explained what CHD is I’m going to tell you a little bit about the history of CHD. Before 1915 CHD was pretty much under the radar killing only 3,000 people per year. Scientists, doctors, and physician had almost no idea how to diagnose the symptoms of Heart Disease until they created the American Heart Association. A pioneering group of physicians and social workers created the first Association for the Prevention and Relief of Heart Disease in New York City in 1915. They created the
British Heart Foundation Public Organisation The British heart foundation helps thousands of people in the UK, with heart replacements and heart operations. The British heart foundation work hard to protect heart health and fight for better services for heart patients. They are a charity organisation which depends on donations from those who have died. History The British Heart foundation was first founded in 1961 in the United Kingdom, total number of deaths from heart and circulatory disease was higher than 300,000 - over half of all deaths that year in 1961. More than half of the lives were lost from coronary heart disease, which claimed just around 500 out of every 100,000 men in the UK each year in the early 1960s.

A classroom, be it regular education or special education, depends on structure to be successful. The teacher needs to have a personal relationship with each and every student at a level where the student feels comfortable enough to perform their daily learning activities. More importantly, an Emotionally Disturbed (E.D.) classroom must have a solid defined structure while also maintaining discipline. The organization and structure of the classroom is just as important as the relationship the teacher has with each of his or her students.
Because a child-centered curriculum depends heavily on a child’s interaction with the classroom and its materials, taking careful consideration of all furniture, learning centers, and learning materials, creates the foundation for a successful classroom management plan. Once the physical environment has been arranged, the teacher can begin to consider the philosophies, personalities, and procedures that will dictate the school year. Eggen and Kauchak describe the typical classroom with the following phrases: “multidimensional and simultaneous,” “immediate,” “unpredictable,” and “public” (Eggen & Kauchak, 2007, p.369). These four descriptions seem particularly adept at capturing the lack of control a teacher has over the school day. To counteract the chaos that can erupt in a classroom, I find it more helpful to form a loose foundation that structures the potential ideal environment than to enforce a strict code of conduct that dictates the actions of personalities.

It takes twelve thousand American lives per year; which ends up being two percent of America’s cancer death rate per year. I did not know much about this cancer because it is never publicized in the media until all of a sudden my girlfriend’s father, Jeff, got diagnosed with it in 2009. This was not only a huge surprise but a heart breaker as well. When someone hears that they could be losing a close friend
