John Akii-Bua: Trying to smash the African hurdles world record and rename Stanley Road

Uganda's John Akii-Bua was promoted to the police inspector by Idi Amin Dada, the dictator, renamed the main Kampala road named after the Welsh American adventurer – soldier – explorer – journalist Henry Morton Stanley to be renamed by the dictator "Akii-Bua Road." This is the few months after Akii reduced the world record for the 400-meter hurdle to 47.82 seconds at the Munich Olympics in early September 1972. Among many other things, Henry Stanley changed its name to Uganda as the "Pearl of Africa." In fact, Henry Stanley often claims or is merely the first person to attach the word to Uganda.

"…The Pearl of Africa' … I use this word for Uganda…a lot…traveler…by adding The fertility of the soil to explain the word. Various products; but the fact is that the word aptly illustrates the superior value of Uganda because of its large population, the wisdom of the people, its strategic position…

Pressure box: easy to build green buildings

You may have seen them in sporting events and outdoor venues; the pressure box has several very valuable uses. They usually sit on the top of the stands, from high school sports fields to large stadiums.

These boxes come in a variety of shapes and sizes, but their main goal is to provide a comfortable place for those who comment, report and announce the elements of the game or event. The location of the large windows and boxes provides a broad view to accurately report the following events. Although the sporting event is a fun place with a vibrant atmosphere, it is a “work environment” in the press release box, where people in the box pay great attention to reporting games or activities.

Although newspaper boxes are popular with those who report games, they are also used for several other functions. If a referee or other person on the field uses a microphone and/or music, it is usually controlled from the box. In addition, spotlights and other lighting controls may be…

John Akii-Bua: former All-Dicica record holder, and remains the national record holder for Uganda

On Saturday, October 9, 1971, it coincided with Uganda’s eighth Independence Day celebration, a political wave from the UK, and John Akii-Bua broke Uganda’s national decathlon record. Akii-Bua is known for his gold medal in the 1972 Summer Olympics at the Genesis Record Time [47.82], but most people think his decathlon performance on Independence Day remains the national decathlon record. Akini's 6933 decathlon points also became Africa's decathlon record. The record was verified by the International Amateur Athletic Federation [IAAF].

The decathlon is a 10-day two-game match. These events include 100m and 400m sprint, long jump, shot put, high jump, 110m hurdle, discus, pole vault, javelin and 1500m km.

Larbi Bouraadaof Algeria established an African record [8332 points] in Ratingen in 2012. When he actively tested the banned person, he was deprived of this record.

John Akii-Bua, non-Jean-Baptiste Okello – Aggrey Awori maintains Uganda record in 110 M-Hurdles

The literature generally attributed the national record of the Uganda in the 110-meter hurdle to Jean-Baptiste Okelo, the personal best of 14.48 seconds he created at the 1960 Rome Olympics.

Okello, 20, and Aggrey Awori, 21, represented Uganda in a difficult race in Rome. The first round, then the quarter-finals, then the semi-finals, and the finals were held on the same day on September 3, 1960. The preliminary round consisted of six games, Okello entered in the first game and Awori entered the sixth heat. There are five to seven players per heating, and the fastest four times per heating will qualify for the second round [quarter finals]. In his heat, Okello ranked second [14.59], so he continued to the next round. Awori is underperforming. He ranks fourth [15.36] but still qualified to enter the quarterfinals.

The quarterfinals were divided into four games, each with six players heating up. The…

The right technique for throwing discus

The "right" technique for throwing discus is often controversial. Who is better technology, L. Jay Sylvester, Mac Wilkins, John Powell, Virgilius Alekna, Gerd Kanter, et al. The bottom line for these athletes is successful because they use their personal strengths and talents to build a technical model. Discus throwers are best for them.

The right discus technology is anything that allows athletes to effectively use their athletic ability to safely maximize their throwing distance. Every great man has found a way to make the best use of his/her own talent and hereditary and athletic ability.

How to add speed training to your track and field training

The elliptical runway separates the infield from the surrounding environment. The track surface provides a smooth and safe environment for training. Depending on whether it is a local high school, a university or an IAAF-certified venue [possibly with a world-class Jamaican sprinter], an open-air stand or stadium bench can watch sports performances on the side of the track. Regardless of affiliation or location, the purpose of the track is clear and unambiguous; if you plan to exercise on the track, you must take care of how fast you run.

You should pay attention to your running style every time you exercise on the track. Tell yourself the logic behind running the technology and how your body responds to it. Pay attention to your posture, stride and footsteps. Watch Dr. Nicholas Romanov's Pose running video and listen to Eric Orton [from

Karen Steen's record of the World Obstacle in the 2009 National Masters

Karen Steen from Olympia [Washington State] to the University of Wisconsin in Oshkosh, with the intention of creating a world record for the 2000m obstacle course and doing this in the most exciting competition of the 2009 American Masters Outdoor Athletics Championships a little. Six world records and 21 US records were set at the meeting.

Steen is an excellent player at Pacific Lutheran University and is now one of the best players in the Pacific Northwest. When the guns at the Titan Stadium sounded, they started the 45-49 age group. From the outset, it is clear that if Steen set a world record in the hot state of Wisconsin, she will run alone on the front line.

She is one of more than 1,000 athletes between the ages of 30 and 95 who participated in a four-day competition to determine the best athletes among national runners, jumpers and throwers.

Steen's onlookers on the record, including myself, immediately realized her presence, because the audiophile quickly pointed out…
