تشعر كندا بقلق بالغ إزاء الاعتقالات الإضافية لنشطاء المجتمع المدني ونشطاء حقوق المرأة في #السعودية ، بما في ذلك #سمر_بدوي . نحث السلطات السعودية على الإفراج عنهم فوراً وعن جميع النشطاء السلميين الآخرين في مجال #حقوق_الانسان.

CORRECTED! New abstract finds that athletes consistently go HARDER than coaches ask on EASY days, but EASIER on HARD days: "Most of us, Foster believes, have internalized some vestigial remnant of the puritan work ethic, conflating hard work with virtue." theglobeandmail.com/life/hea…

We all hate aerodynamic drag on the bike, but where does it come from? Surprisingly, when your legs are at 12/6, nearly 50% of drag comes from your legs and feet (see ref photo). Only 25% of your drag comes from your equipment! Stay tuned for a much different story at yaw! #VWT

Among male skaters, body issues are more of an open secret, less likely to be addressed publicly by the competitors but evident to anyone in their world.
