The primary roles of a running backs are to receive handoffs from the quarterback for a rushing play, to catch passes from out of the backfield, and to block. Some athletic traits that a running back will need are Speed, Power, Endurance, Strength and Agility.

Trapped Charlie woke up with the biggest headache he ever had struggled with. The bright sun glared into his eyes, and the humid air was so thick he felt he could cut it with a knife. Sitting up, Charlie took in his surroundings. Surrounding him was strange foliage he had never seen. Trees with trunks that looked like the skin of a pineapple towered above him. Humongous ferns swayed in the hot breeze. Charlie figured he was in some sort of jungle. Realizing he had his machete with him, he set of
PAIN! Lots of pain! I thought I was dying! I slammed into the ground my leg now at a very odd angle! I screamed! I heard footsteps running towards me screaming for me to answer, but I couldn't find the energy to do so! I closed my eyes and then I fainted! When I was small about six or seven years of age. I remember playing in our local park, on the biggest climbing frame I had ever seen. I would climb so high I'd swear I could reach the sky. I'd play for hours and hours everyday of the summer

My friend and I were playing outside in kindergarten at Prairie Ridge Elementary School and a kid came walking over to me and said, “Hey Claire and Reylynn I DARE you to come over and do the monkey bars”. I said, “Ok!” Reylynn replied, “NO”. “I don’t know how to do the monkey bars.” To me Reylynn made the good decision not to do the monkey bars because they were dangerous, especially for kindergarteners. I was walking to the monkey bars’ slow as a turtle because I was talking
To learn and experience something new and out of your norm can be a pretty scary thing, almost like being in a foreign country and not knowing your surroundings; what do you do? You panic! I can remember clearly an event during my childhood, it was one of the hardest thing I've ever had to do, and that was learning how to rock climb. All my friend’s parents would take them to a nearby gym after school. It was a gym for kids and rock climbing was the cool thing to do. I wanted to go so badly and feel
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, commonly referred to as DMD, is a life threatening disease. There are many different forms of muscular dystrophy, Duchenne being one more serious. DMD begins to show at a young age. This particular form of muscular dystrophy is mostly found in males. Duchenne is carried by the mother on the X chromosome but often, the event of having this disease is just a “fluke.” Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is a deadly and unfortunate disease but new research that is being done may

I woke up to the shimmering beam of sunlight shining through my bedroom window. Despite the time and the comfort of my warm and snug bed I manage to wake up. Waking up for me is a constant struggle in my life, but this past summer that changed. This summer I learned to love something that I never would have imagined. I learned to love running, nevertheless, running is still a love hate relationship for me. Running is an escape for me and allows me to forget about all my worries and to relax. However
Haruki Murakami’s What I Talk About When I Talk About Running is a detailed memoir that describes his struggles with running and his life experiences of becoming a novelist. He presents his experience of his life as a runner in an honest and simplistic way that is enjoyable for the reader. The book is a kind of part running journal and part memoir. Throughout the memoir Murakami presents his experience as a developing novelist, along with his escapades as a nightclub entrepreneur, all within the
This topic paper discusses the book Teaching the Nuts and Bolts of Physical Education, which was published in 2008. The accompanying CD-ROM with sample lesson plans was not provided with the book. This book is really a guide to teaching 17 manipulative and 8 locomotor skills that children ages 5 to 12 will learn in physical education class. I will briefly discuss a couple of these skills with a suggested activity. This is a handy guide for a future physical education teacher. There are drawings
The discovery of Kepler-186f is a huge venture to discovering planets like our planet Earth .This planet is named Kepler-186f and it is one of five planets that have hitherto been caught by NASA's Kepler space telescope in circle about the star Kepler-186. This star is more diminutive and cooler than the Sun, of a sort called a M-dwarf or red dwarf, and all it’s referred to planets are little too, with sizes short of what 1.5 times the measure of Earth. The planet Kepler-186f is the most modest,
Have you ever wondered about planets like the one in the move Avatars? You know, thought are there any planets similar to that one in our universe. Well in a way there are. You see, there are planets in our galaxy that astronomers have found that just might fit more of a realistic version of what you may have imaged. These planets are called Super-Earths and some of them may even be habitable. However, there hasn’t really been strong evidence of traces of life on these planets so far but scientists
Rupert Murdoch and a Dramatic Change in the Television Industry Critically assess this statement with particular reference to commercial television channels. Rupert Murdoch owns one of the largest media organisations in the world, called News International. This is an organisation which owns products in all mediums. Press baron, Murdoch started his ownership of print in Australia when he inherited his first newspaper from his father, the Adelaide News, he made what was a fairly unsuccessful
Earth is small. Many people find it hard to believe, but when one thinks of earth in its context, amongst billions of galaxies, stars, planets, and an infinite universe, earth is a mere grain of sand on the beach that is space. With this in mind, one may, quite understandably, find it hard to believe that earth is the only planet that sustains life. With today’s advanced technology and science, extensive evidence has been found suggesting a great likelihood of life on other planets. The discovery
The War of the Worlds Imagine a world where humans are not the dominant species and have been enslaved by a foreign entity that has no other goal, but to take the Earth over. H.G Wells is an author who writes stories in an ultimately artistic way. His stories paint pictures that are both gruesome and horrible, but yet beautiful and courageous at the same time. The War of the Worlds is a story where the planet of Mars is at the end of its lifespan and is dying at a rapid pace. A species called the
The Earth is the lucky third planet from the Sun and the largest of the solar system’s four terrestrial planets. It is the most suitable place for human beings to live because it has adequate sources of everything essential for human beings. Predictions about the end of the world have been denied before. However many people predict that 2012 will be the end of our world. According to Mayan’s calendar, the world will end in the year 2012.Thus is why NASA as the organization that investigates on astronomy
habitable planet life cannot sustain in the universe, the search for life in the universe has been long and hard with no results proving life to exist outside of earth. The most predominant searchers of those at the SETI Institute or Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence Institute, a privately funded organization, that uses various methods to search for electromagnetic transmissions, the assumed method of contact, from distant planets. With information about planets habitability and possibly locations
There are over a million different planets in our universe. There is not one planet like the other, though some people may argue with this fact. Jupiter, Saturn, are all gas giants, but they also are made up of different gasses. Jupiter is made up of mostly hydrogen, Saturn is made up of hydrogen and helium. I am sure that everyone knows that the rock planets are not alike in many different ways, there is mercury which is very hot, and most likely just a planet of lava. Then there is earth which
The Educational Journey Education is a journey through the universe. The universe is enormous and seems to have no end. If a person wants to be truly educated, he or she must spend years in school studying both important and trivial information. The material in the solar system represents the years a student spends in school. The remaining space in the universe is the endless learning one does outside of the classroom. The sun may not be in the center of the universe; however, the sun is the
