A Case For Naps

Ryan Hall, Olympian and our American gold-medal hopeful for the marathon has this to say about successful training:

"Get Enough Sleep!  Everyone else seems to call their afternoon shuteye 'naps.'  I call them 'business meetings.'  On my easy days, I schedule two hours for these meetings.  When you're sleeping, your body absorbs all the hard work.  It's ironic:  one of the best ways to get better is to do nothing."

I always knew I liked him.
