Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely
contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem.
Race walkers are conditioned athletes. The longest track and field event at the Summer
Olympics is the 50-kilometer race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But
the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and

one foot remain in contact (
接触
) with the ground at all times. It’s this strange form that makes race
walking such an attractive activity, however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise
science at Salem State University in Salem, Mass.
Like running, race walking is physically demanding, she says, According to most calculations,
race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories(
卡路里
) per
hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than
running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour.
However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr. Norberg says.
According to her research, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per
step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight
with each step.
As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are
uncommon among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the
ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the
sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or
experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes some practice.

Some parents will buy any high-tech toy if they think it will help their child, but researchers
said puzzles help children with math-related skills.
Psychologist Susan Levine, an expert on mathematics development in young children the
University of Chicago, found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop
better spatial skills. Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition(
认知
) after
controlling for differences in parents’ income, education and the amount of parent talk, Levine said.
The researchers analyzed video recordings of 53 child- parent pairs during everyday activities
at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better
spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.
“The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not, on tasks that
assessed their ability to rotate(
旋转
)and translate shapes,” Levine said in a statement.
The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would, and about half
of children in the study played with puzzles at one time. Higher-income parents tended to have
children play with puzzles more frequently, and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had
better spatial skills. However, boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls, and the
parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active during puzzle play than
parents of girls.
The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science.
