Things improve when he meets Alex – an aspiring model headed for New York – and a fast-talking pal promises to set up the demo.

Comeback run strategy for tomorrow?
Hi. I have been laid low by a cold for the past 8 days but feel like I am ready to make it to a 5KM race tomorrow. Any ideas how I should plan this race. I want to run it in under 24 mins (I guess that is like 7:40 mile) do you think I should hold back in the first couple Ks?


Let’s see what I can suggest…

A cold for a week is a double edged sword.

If you rest for a week before an important race then you are full of energy and recovered enough from your training to really go for it. Any little problems should have cured themselves and you are refuelled – if your previous training was good you should be in your peak condition. Obviously you can’t rest for 8 days every week and hope to get a good time each weekend – so the rest period has to follow a period of good training.

So you have had 8 days rest… which should be good apart from the next point

After having a cold. A cold does more than you think for a runner. You don’t sleep so well for the week which slows recovery from day to day living, to fight the cold your body uses it’s fuel stores (the heat rise in a flu is caused by this) and you might not eat so well – leaving your fuel reserves a bit depleted.

So 8 days rest and a cold – the best and worse you can have I think. If you look at it you might say that they balance each other and you should be able to run a normal training run paced race.

I would enter the race but forget the time. Treat it like a training run with other people.

However it is a race… I ran a 5k "Fun Run" at the end of last year and as I left the flat I said to the GF "This is a fun run, I will start in the middle, jog round and have a laugh with the other runners" and then we all lined up and I ’somehow’ ended up on the front row… well that was it, the red racing mist came along and as 1 lad raced away I thought "I can catch him" and that was the last of the fun run idea of jogging round!

What I am saying there is that you can go out tomorrow thinking you will treat it as a fun training run, but when you line up, well it turns into a race…..

So what I would suggest is to leave the watch at home (if you run with one). When you set off run the first part thinking "I can run faster", for the first 750m to 1km. After that you will be nicely warmed up and know how well you are running and feeling. If you are going OK then start to pick of the people in front, overtake them and pick up your speed.

Holding back in the 2nd KM? I would just start going of it then – if you go slow for 40% of a race, then you aren’t going to get a good time.

Holding back, as long as you dont hold back too much for reaching your goal, is a frequently used plan after coming back from illness. It allows you to re-assess your new fitness level, albeit lower than before, and allow you to decide when to push hard or lay off. Also, a sub-24 minutes attempt would mean any miles time under 8 minutes per mile, each mile.

programming c++ help again?
ok i’ve gotten this worked out a lot better, but still having trouble. rules of the game are two players, one decides how many chips there are in the pile, then he choose how many he wants to take, then the second player, then back to the first, and so on, until there is only 1 left. and each can only take half of the available chips at most, and must take at least 1. now i’ve got it set it up fairly well i think, but i need to be able to make it loop over again and again, because right now it only goes 3 times, i need to keep going until someone gets down to 1. i put a break in at the end because it was looping to infinity, but i’ll deal with that later. here is my code so far.
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <string>
#include <math.h>
using namespace std;
int main()

{
int a, b, c, d, initial_number_of_chips;
string player_1, player_2;

cout << "\nRules: The game starts with a pile of chips. Eaech player may only take at\n";
cout << "most half of the chips. The player that gets the last chip wins. Good luck."

<< "\nPlayer 1 please enter your first name:";
cin >> player_1;
cout << "\nPlayer 2 please enter your first name:";
cin >> player_2;

cout <<"\nThe current player is" << player_1;
cout << "\n How many chips you would like to start with, " << player_1;
cin >> initial_number_of_chips;
cout << "\n"<<player_1<<"How many chips would you like to take for your first turn?";

cin>>a;

while (a >(initial_number_of_chips/2)|| a<1)
{
cout<<"please enter another value";
cin>>a;
}
while (a <=initial_number_of_chips/2 || a>=1)
{
cout<<"\n"<<player_2<<"it is your turn, please select how many chips you would like";
cin>>b;

while (b >(initial_number_of_chips-a)/2 || b<1)
{
cout<<"please enter a different value";
cin>>b;
}
while (b <=(initial_number_of_chips-a)/2 || b>=1)
{
cout<<"\n"<<player_1<<"it is your turn, please select how many chips you would like";
cin>>c;

while (c >(initial_number_of_chips-a-b)/2 || c<1)
{
cout<< "please enter a different value";
cin>>c;
}
while (c <=(initial_number_of_chips-a-b)/2 || c>=1)

break;

cout <<"\nyou win";

}

}

return 0;
}

how can i make it continue looping over and over until someone has just 1 chip left?


This sounds an awful lot like my first programming assignment in my first year of my uni course. Wow that takes me back.
Your basic problem is that you have too many while loops, you only need a while that runs the game while no-one has won it, and 2 while loops to handle incorrect input, one for each player.
You also have too many choice variables, you only need one which you could give the more meaning name of "chips_to_take"; this can be reused for both players.
You need some extra variables to hold; whether the game has been won, who’s turn it is, and the current number of chips left.
Your invalid input messages could also be a little more helpful, rather than just say "please enter a different input" you could say "please enter a number between 1 and half the current number of chips" (outputting the current number of chips first before asking for input obviously).
When the game is won you can determine who won by looking at whose turn it is next. (whoever’s turn is next is the loser).

If the Bible is the truth, does it violate hate crime laws?
If you consider the bible to be true, then consider the following and tell me if this promotion of stoning gays violates your states or countries hate crime laws:

"If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. they must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads."

Not something I’d want my kids growing up on.


Bible is truth, laws are man made. So God’s truth supersedes man’s law.

Micah Ben Yosef | Nov 20, 2009


The Bible is the word of God & what man thinks is not important.
What God calls a sin is a sin & will keep one from having eternal life if they continue in their sins..
If man chooses to call it a hate crime doesn’t matter. God will judge man & nations both.
