"I'm just an ordinary person doing unusual things, " saysRyvar, a single mother who runs half-marathons in a row until now before she starts work as a cleaner.

Also, her advice is fairly simple: drink plenty of water; have a balanced diet and early nights; and try out magnesium(镁) salt baths.
"Form a habit, " she says. "If you're not comfortable doing it by yourself, join a group. Sign up for a race and try your best. When you have a goal, it makes a big difference. "

An eight-year-old chess prodigy (天才) madehistory as the youngest player to defeat achess grandmaster in a classical tournament game on February 18, 2024.
The youngster, Ashwath Kaushik, who lives in Singapore, achieved the feat(功绩) after beating Poland's Jacek Stopa, 37, in round four of the Burgdorfer Stadthaus Open in Switzerland.
The previous record had been set earlier this year by then eight-year-old Leonid Ivanovic from Serbia— who became the first player under the age of nine to beat a grandmaster in a classical game—— but Ashwath was five months younger than the Serbian when he beat Stopa.
"It felt really exciting and amazing! I didn't give up, especially when I was worse at one point. But I finally managed to come back from that, " Kaushik said after beating Stopa.
Born in India, Ashwath has already made a name for himself after winning a number of youth tournaments around the world— notably becoming the World Under-8Rapid champion in 2022. Ashwath wants to make it to the very top of the game.
In an interview, Ashwath's father said, "There isn't really any sports tradition in our families. And we sometimes stumble in search of the right pathway for him. " Ashwath's father added neither he nor his wife has a history of playing chess and that it was a surprise to see his son, who he says practices around seven hours a day, become such a chess prodigy. The boy learned the rules of the game at the age of four. "He picked it up on his own, playing with his grandparents, " his father said. "Every day is a new discovery!"

With all our modern education and technology, we might think we're smarter than people born a century ago. But are we really?
It's not quite clear, but scientists do think that over the last century our brains have been getting bigger. A new study has found that people born in the1970s had a
6. 6% larger brain volume (容量) and 15% larger brain surface than those born in the 1930s. According to the research team, it's possible that larger brains could reduce the risk of age-related dementia—a gradual decline (衰退) in memory, thinking, behavior and social skills.
The researchers looked at MRI (磁共振成像) scans of participants in the Framingham Heart Study in theUS. This is a health survey that began in 1948 and is now looking at its third generation of participants. TheMRI scans were done between 1999 and 2019, and more than 3, 000 people were studied. As well as increased brain size, the study found that brain structures including the hippocampus (海马)— the area that deals with learning and memory— have grown in size. That's when comparing people born in the 1970s with those born in the 1930s, and when accounting for factors like increased body size.
The study's first author Charles DeCarli said larger brain structures may reflect improved brain development and improved brain health. He added, "A larger brain structure represents a larger brain reserve (储备). "This means the brain might be better able to deal with the damage that comes with getting older. This could help reduce the risk of age-related brain diseases likeAlzheimer's(阿尔茨海默病), DeCarli said.
The number of people living with Alzheimer's in theUS has been increasing since the 1970s, as the population has grown and aged. But as a percentage of population, the rate has actually been decreasing by 20% per decade.
DeCarli thinks larger brains may have had an effect on this trend, but further research is required.
