a spin off of Athlete’s Foot. They decided to call it Finish Line. At the time of Finish Line’s start up, Cohen and Klapper still maintained 10 Athlete’s Foot stores. After the first Finish Line stores were opened, Cohen and Klapper converted all previous Athlete’s Foot stores into Finish Line stores in 1986 when their franchises expired. As of 2002, Finish line was the second largest athletic retailer with over 550 stores in 46 states. Finish Line’s success can be attributed to many things, such
my favorite quote is Finish Strong. Finish Strong came from my softball coach my sophomore year. He read some great stories from the book. Those stories along with the quote stuck with me ever since. I like to think of my favorite quote because it is inspiring, meaningful, and successful. First, Finish Strong is inspiring. Finish Strong is a choice that is made by you. This quote possess a mindset to perform at an exceptional level, and refusing to accept mediocrity. Finish Strong is two powerful

windedness of the runner or the leg burn of the biker but an all-over, savage unpleasantness. As you pass the five-hundred-meter mark, with three-quarters of the race still to row, you realize with dread that you are not going to make it to the finish, but at the same time the idea of letting your teammates down by not rowing your hardest is unthinkable...Therefore, you are going to die. Welcome to this life." -- Ashleigh Teitel The Basics The sport of rowing involves numerous combinations
Hypothesis: The time I take to finish the course at each attempt will probably vary depending on two factors 1.if I am fully fit and 2.if I am injury-free. Equipments required: · Tape measure · Tape to mark start/finish line · Eight cones · Stopwatch · Score card and pen Activity Layout: 1. Get a space 6 metres wide by 14 metres long, indoors or outdoors (this is the dimension of a badminton court). 2. Mark the start/finish line. 3. Layout cones as shown in
chose the second path and later held a trophy that represented my perseverance and hard work. The years of running - consistently choosing the second path - have taught me discipline and perseverance. These qualities will help me cross a different finish line and achieve a new goal: becoming a doctor. I have had to learn to budget my time to meet the demands of school, training programs, and volunteer activities. Although I trained and ran at least thirty miles a week throughout college, I also
nostalgic feeling of a cold and oppressive past. As the boy takes a bite of the apple, he decides that he does not want it. A little annoyed, Ara consumes the rest of the apple so as not to waste it. However, he finds the apple unappealing and does not finish it himself. Overall, Ara is somewhat perturbed by the... ... middle of paper ... ...escribable sadness that lurks in the air around them.

hurdles. Beat them to the first hurdle with a quick start, and you have a chance to win. CRACK! The startling noise the gun made brought me back to reality. Clearing the first hurdle in perfect form, I ran with all my might. I lunged toward the finish line after I soared over the final hurdle. Looking ahead of me, I saw only one other runner. I had qualified for the regional finals! My coach's smile said everything I wanted to hear. Walking off the rubber track, my heart was at the same time

This format makes the text circular instead of linear. There is no start or finish, just a never-ending loop of information that changes order depending on the reader This rhizome feature of hypertext makes it interesting and creative for readers.

nozzle, and set it to make a big stream that will drive off bird droppings and other dirty spots on the car. Try to avoid high-pressure handles that are found at self-serve places. High-pressure handles can damage a car by driving road grime into the finish, rather than washing it off. Also try to aim the hose up under the car and into the wheel wells to wash off road salt and gunk that has accumulated. Step3: If there's still is...

I put the small loop of my piggin' string over the front leg of the calf and gathered the back legs and stacked them as perfectly as possible.

our watchers aren't even real, we must still find our own method to focus on our duties and distract ourselves from the pain that lives within. I myself have found a technique which works perfectly. By using this technique, I have been able to finish most of my work quicker then before and more efficient as well. My watcher never saw this coming and now hardly distracts me. My watcher is very evil and tricky, but with lots of practice, I was able to focus more on my work and less on its schemes
opinion. Achebe states his opinion not only on Heart of Darkness but also makes clear his opinion concerning Conrad by the end of the essay. The tone in “An Image of Africa: Racism in Conrad's Heart of Darkness” changes dramatically from start to finish. While introducing his essay, Chinua Achebe uses a pleasant tone to begin his essay and describe the setting in which he encounters some students. He begins to describe a "fine autumn morning" which encouraged friendliness and continues by describing
constant and I will be changing the concentration of hydrochloric acid and water. I predict that as the concentration of hydrochloric acid increases, the rate of reaction also increases. I also think that the time taken for the experiment to finish will decrease as the concentration of the hydrochloric acid will increase. These graphs show my expected results: [IMAGE] In a high concentration, there are more particles of hydrochloric acid in a certain volume, this means there is a
Philosophy It was the last day of school. My daughter's 3rd grade class had just chosen to have me read to them instead of playing a game. As I explained that we wouldn't be able to finish the rest of the chapter book I had begun several weeks before, I suggested "You can check it out at the library and finish it over the summer". One little girl looked up at me in disappointment and said, "but it wouldn't be the same as hearing you read"! My heart melted and the final reason was added to my ongoing
small animals she was visualizing to stay out of her way that she had a far walk and that she must be getting on her way. She says this with a tone in her voice which I imagine to be a voice that a older women uses when they mean business and must finish what they set out to do. Phoenix waves her cane much like someone would at a horse, to persuade it to continue on the path. As Phoenix approaches the stream it becomes obvious that the spirit and imagination inside of her is that of a child.
in him over years. "A spasm of rage gripped his throat for a few moments and then passed, leaving after it a sharp sensation of thirst" (Joyce 87). It is rather obvious what it leaves him thirsty for. Despite (or rather because) of the urgency to finish his work he sneaks out of the office for a drink. This business of leaving to drink is not in response to stress, we learn it is a compulsive habit. When returning to the office Farrington is asked where he was. He does not answer, but the questioning
together and mechanically reconstruct cars and repair them within our own limits. This place that my dad and I started building would be known as "The Shop" or a.k.a. "Hopshop." This shop is the last project that my dad started and I was going to finish it. It all started by excavating the ground that would one-day support this shop. The shop plans had been previously made and were followed exactly. After the concrete was poured and steel beams were secured, it was ready to put the metal siding
When I first found out about the school's leadership program, I thought it was something I wanted to do. However, I almost did not apply for it. I filled out the application on the last day it was due and waited in anticipation for an answer. The leadership program has been a positive experience in my life. It has helped me to experience new things and change my way of thinking; it has helped me to become more direct, open and sincere; and it has introduced me to new, interesting, and wonderful people
touching the start line 5. Simultaneously start the stop clock and release the trolley (be careful not to push it or exert any extra force on it) 6. Stop the clock when the front of the trolley reaches the finish line 7. Record the time taken for the trolley to reach the finish, next to the relevant height, in a table 8. Repeat from step 4 twice more so you end up with three results for the same height then continue onto step 9 9. Add all these results together and divide the answer
