Full Circle was a powerful work of signifigance. Deeply emotional, the book transcends Jansen's extraordinary battle as a parable of every athlete's struggle for personal developement. McCallum weaves an enduring tale that athlete, sports nut, or soccer mom can internalize to better understand the common struggle manifested by sports. More eloquent even than Shaq Attaq, Full circle is an accomplishment of aesthetics and moral comprehension.

Figure skaters use skates which differ slightly from hockey skates, to perform spins, jumps, and other "moves" on the ice, often to music. There are international competitions for figure skating, such as the World Championships and figure skating is also an official event in the Winter Olympics Table of contents 1 Jumps 2 Spins 3 Ice Dancing 4 Pairs ... 7 See also: Jumps There are six major jumps in figure skating. All six are landed on a right back outside edge, but have different takeoffs, by which they may be distinguished. The two categories of jumps are toe jumps and edge jumps. Toe jumps are launched by tapping the toe pick of one skate into the ice, and include (in order of difficulty from easiest to hardest): Toe loops, which take off from the back outside edge of the right foot and are launched by the left toe pick (toe walleys are similar, but take off from the back inside edge of the right foot);

Biographies Women in Sports HOME Milestones in Women's Sport Peggy Fleming In 1961, the entire United States Figure Skating team was killed in a plane crash on its way to the Prague World Championships. Peggy Fleming was eleven years old and her coach was one of those killed. With all of her role models gone, it would be up to her to create an image of style and grace that would carry her to five U.S. Titles, three World Titles, and in 1968 to an Olympic Gold Medal. ABC televised the 1968 Winter Games live and in color for the first time ever, and the enduring image from that coverage will always be of Peggy's free-skating program. It was a program that won her the Gold Medal by 88.2 points over her closest competitor, and it would be the only Gold Medal the United States brought home from Grenoble. That image, televised by satellite, of a young woman in a chartreuse dress fulfilling her dream as a nation watched, was the beginning of a long and mutually satisfying relationship with television. Six months after those Olympics, Peggy would star in the first of five TV specials. Her Sun Valley Special won two Emmy Awards, and in 1973, her fourth special became the first joint production by Soviets and Americans filmed entirely in the USSR. Her career has continued to expand, not only in television appearances ranging from "Diagnosis Murder" and "Newhart" to hosting a special on poaching in East Africa, but also into commercial endorsements. The diversity of Peggy Fleming's marketing development set the standard for today's generations of figure skaters. Because of her continuing popularity, corporations have come to realize the universal appeal of her sport, and Peggy remains its graceful symbol and most identifiable personality.

Sports Biographies Alpha Index Index by Sport Index of Women Carpenter, Connie (Mrs. Phinney) Cycling, Speed skating b. Feb. 26, 1957, Madison, WI Shortly before her fifteenth birthday, Carpenter finished seventh in the 1,500-meter speed skating event at the 1972 Olympics. She won the U. S. outdoor over-all championship in 1976, but injured an ankle and missed the Olympics. Like most speed skaters, Carpenter trained on a bicycle during the off-season. After her ankle injury, she began cycling competitively and won the national road and pursuit championships in 1976, 1977, and 1979. Carpenter suffered a concussion in a fall and temporarily quit cycling to return to the University of California-Berkeley, where she took up rowing. She was a member of the crew that won the 1980 national collegiate championship in the four-oared shell with coxswain. Carpenter returned to cycling in 1981 and won the national road and two-points championships that year. She was also the national two-points champion in 1982 and criterium champion in 1982 and 1983. Carpenter set a world record of 3:49.53 in winning the 1983 world pursuit championship. The following year, she became the first U. S. cyclist since 1912 to win an Olympic medal. Rebecca Twigg of the U. S. took the lead in the Olympic road race with 50 meters to go, but Carpenter pulled even just 3 meters from the tape, then eased out of the saddle and threw her arms forward to propel her bike across the finish line less than half a wheel length ahead of Twigg. It was a trick she'd learned from her husband, Davis Phinney, who won a bronze in the team time trial.
