Monitor marathons. How one group of lizards turns a gasp into a gulp. Story by Adam Summers ~ Illustrations by Patricia J. Wynne
http://www.biomechanics.bio.uci.edu/_html/nh_biomech/monitor/monitor.htm

Extractions: Making my way down a trail through rosemary scrub in Florida's central sandhills, I surprised a six-lined racerunner ( Cnemidophorus sexlineatus , so named for the lines that run the length of its body) basking in a wheel rut. I gave chase and the lizard streaked off-easily keeping ahead of my stumbling run. For thirty yards the lizard churned through loose sand, before managing a darting escape under a shady bush. The sprint was impressive, particularly for a lizard less than a foot long, but what was even more amazing was that the lizard had to make its dash without taking a breath. The racerunner's mechanical systems for breathing and running are linked in such a way that the lizard can do one or the other, but not both. David Carrier, a biomechanist at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, observed that a lizard's rib muscles also play a vital role in locomotion: they stabilize the trunk, giving the forelimbs a steady platform from which to operate. But any locomotion also renders the rib muscles nearly useless for breathing; running makes them completely so. Studying the common green iguana (

Extractions: Messier Marathon Holders Please submit any scheduled Messier Marathon 2008 Events! Messier Marathon is a term describing the attempt to find as many Messier objects as possible in one night. Depending on the location of the observer, and season, there is a different number of them visible, as they are not evenly distributed in the celestial sphere. There are heavily crowded regions in the sky, especially the Virgo Cluster and the region around the Galactic Center , while other regions are virtually empty of them. In particular, there are no Messier objects at all at Right Ascensions 21:40 to 23:20, and only the very northern is between RA 21:40 and 0:40. This chance effect leads, at considerably low northern latitudes on Earth (best around 25 degrees North), to the chance to observe all 110 Messier objects in one night! This opportunity occurs once every year, around mid- to end-March; the best time to try is of course when the Moon is near its new phase. For the upcoming years until 2050, we give best Messier Marathon dates here Note: Most Messier Marathoners accept NGC 5866 as M102, either in account of

http://www.ultrunr.com/what_is.html

Extractions: Home By: David Blaikie An ultramarathon is any organized footrace extending beyond the standard marathon running distance of 42 kilometers, 195 meters (26 miles, 385 yards). Ultra races typically begin at 50 kilometers and can extend to enormous distances. There is no limit. The longest certified ultramarathon in the world is The Ultimate Ultra, the annual Sri Chinmoy 1300-Miler (2092 kilometers) which is held each fall in New York. There is also the annual Trans America Footrace, which is run in 64 consecutive daily stages from Los Angeles to New York. Runners cover almost 3,000 miles (more than 4800 kilometers) at a rate of about 45 miles (72 kilometers) a day. Ultramarathons are run on roads, trails and tracks. They can be point-to-point, like the Comrades Marathon in South Africa; out and back, like the Niagara 100K in Canada; or held on loop courses, like the famous one-mile loop that Sri Chinmoy runners circle 1300 times in New York. Rules allow runners to "go as you please." This means they may take walking breaks, pause to drink or eat and even sleep if the events are especially long, such as multi-day races. No penalty results from any such interruption, except for the time or distance a runner loses from his or her performance. Men and women compete in ultramarathons at all levels. They always have. In modern times, they usually compete together in the same race. One hundred years ago, when the sport flourished as "pedestrianism," men and women competed in separate events.
