The team started with a spectacular crash and burn at the 1988 Calgary Olympics and grew into triumphant, shining lights in world bobsleigh competition. No longer is the team a novelty--largely comedic--as portrayed in the movie "Cool Runnings. Now the Jamaican Bobsleigh Team is a phenomenon, a true marvel in the sporting world. Journalists, sports historians, and fans all hail its indomitable spirit and crowd-pleasing character. "Cool Runnings and Beyond: The Story of the Jamaica Bobsleigh Team gives you a front-row seat to this incredible world, thanks to author Nelson "Chris" Stokes. His account shows how, once kindled, the flame of the Jamaica Bobsleigh Team refused to sputter. Instead, it flared like its Olympic counterpart. Despite jeers and sneers, these tropical islanders proved they had the fire within them to become medal contenders. Now serving as president of the Jamaica Bobsleigh Federation, Chris Stokes speaks from his,experience as an Olympian and as a member of the world bobsleighing community. He details the personalities of the teammates, the grinding training regimens, and the raw hopes and fears, disasters and determination found behind the familiar media images. Drawing from the dynamic demands of marketing Jamaica Bobsleigh, Chris also provides lessons for fund raising, building a vibrant and visionary business, and seeking personal growth through teamwork.

Book excerpt: Even among the most elite performers, certain athletes stand out as a cut above the rest, able to outperform in clutch, game-deciding moments.

Sports participation—from the recreational to the collegiate Division I level—is at an all-time high. While the caliber of their games may differ, athletes at every level have one thing in common: the desire to excel. In The Champion's Mind, sports psychologist Jim Afremow, PhD, offers the same advice he uses with Olympians, Heisman Trophy winners, and professional athletes, including: • How to get in a "zone," thrive on a team, and stay humble • How to progress within a sport and sustain long-term excellence • Customizable pre-performance routines to hit full power when the gun goes off or the puck is dropped With hundreds of useful tips, breakthrough science, and cutting-edge workouts from the world's top trainers, The Champion's Mind will help you shape your body to ensure a longer, healthier, happier lifetime.

Download or read book Berlin 1936 written by Oliver Hilmes and published by Other Press, LLC. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named a Best Book of the Year by The Guardian, The Telegraph, Daily Mail, and Financial Times A lively account of the 1936 Olympics told through the voices and stories of those who witnessed it, from an award-winning historian and biographer Berlin 1936 takes the reader through the sixteen days of the Olympiad, describing the events in the German capital through the eyes of a select cast of characters--Nazi leaders and foreign diplomats, sportsmen and journalists, writers and socialites, nightclub owners and jazz musicians. While the events in the Olympic stadium, such as when an American tourist breaks through the security and manages to kiss Hitler, provide the focus and much of the drama, it also considers the lives of ordinary Berliners--the woman with a dark secret who steps in front of a train, the transsexual waiting for the Gestapo's knock on the door, and the Jewish boy fearing for his future and hoping that Germany loses on the playing field. During the games the Nazi dictatorship was in many ways put on hold, and Berlin 1936 offers a last glimpse of the vibrant and diverse life in the German capital in the 1920s and 30s that the Nazis wanted to destroy.

Book Synopsis The Tao of Sport: Reflecting on Purpose, Passion, and Growth from a Hotbed of High Performance by : Duff Gibson
Download or read book The Tao of Sport: Reflecting on Purpose, Passion, and Growth from a Hotbed of High Performance written by Duff Gibson and published by ISBN Canada. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Duff Gibson has spent the better part of three decades in a hotbed of Olympic sport. As an athlete, Duff was a provincial champion speed skater, a national champion and national team member in bobsleigh, and then a world and Olympic gold medallist in the sport of skeleton. As a coach he led six different athletes to podium finishes at a world level. Competing against, working with, and learning from numerous world-leading athletes and coaches has provided Duff a breadth and depth of experience few others have had. Despite its mischaracterization in popular culture, the mental side of sport is perhaps the most significant aspect, and what very often makes the difference between success and failure, in particular at the highest level. The Tao of Sport explores the commonality amongst elite performers relating to purpose, passion, and growth, as a means to achieving high performance, or as a means to an end in itself. An inspiring and informative read for athletes and coaches of any level, as well as parents, teachers, and anyone helping others to become the best version of themselves. The Tao of Sport will forever change your perspective on what it really takes to win.

Download or read book A Champion's Mind written by Pete Sampras and published by Crown. This book was released on 2009-05-26 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Champion’s Mind, the tennis great who so often exhibited visible discomfort with letting people “inside his head” finally opens up. An athletic prodigy, Pete resolved from his earliest playing days never to let anything get in the way of his love for the game. But while this determination led to tennis domination, success didn’t come without a price. Here for the first time Pete speaks freely about the personal trials he faced—including the death of a longtime coach and confidant—and the struggles he gutted his way through while being seemingly on top of the world. Among the book’s most riveting scenes are the devastating early loss that led Pete to make a monastic commitment to the game; fierce on-court battles with Andre Agassi; and the triumphant last match of Pete’s career at the finals of the 2002 U.S. Open. "A thoroughly compelling read that really probes the hard drive of a champion...All the emotion and insight that Sampras seemes reluctant to express during his playing days come spilling forth." —Jon Wertheim, senior writer, Sports Illustrated

Download or read book The Sports Gene written by David Epstein and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-04-29 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestseller – with a new afterword about early specialization in youth sports – from the author of Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World. The debate is as old as physical competition. Are stars like Usain Bolt, Michael Phelps, and Serena Williams genetic freaks put on Earth to dominate their respective sports? Or are they simply normal people who overcame their biological limits through sheer force of will and obsessive training? In this controversial and engaging exploration of athletic success and the so-called 10,000-hour rule, David Epstein tackles the great nature vs. nurture debate and traces how far science has come in solving it. Through on-the-ground reporting from below the equator and above the Arctic Circle, revealing conversations with leading scientists and Olympic champions, and interviews with athletes who have rare genetic mutations or physical traits, Epstein forces us to rethink the very nature of athleticism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simon Dodds has had his wings clipped. Shot down over the luxurious holiday planet Mythos and separated from his wingmates, he is quick to discover that the once-popular sun-soaked paradise has been transformed into a nightmarish war zone, swarming with armies of seemingly unstoppable black-suited soldiers. The Pandoran war machine is on the move, preparing to advance The Mission and deal to the rest of the galaxy the same fate it did the Mitikas Empire. Unaware of what fate may have befallen his friends, the young pilot attempts to make his way through the dangerous streets of the war-torn city of New Malaga, as he waits for the CSN to rush to the rescue. But from out of the chaos emerges something far more terrible; and if Dodds can somehow survive the next 24 hours, he might finally see beyond the lies he has been fed and hear a side to the story that no one wants him to: what really happened to the Imperium, who the black-suited warriors are, what the ATAFs were built for... ... and what his purpose in all of it is. Whether he likes it or not. There are three sides to every story. But sometimes the truth is the hardest side to believe.
