EDITOR’S NOTE Looking at the cover, you might think the only reason I chose this issue’s theme was so I could make guys take their shirts off. And depending on who you ask, you might be half right. But the other half is a little different. Over the year we’ve explored the IU experience, and part of that, as gross as it sounds, is getting a little sweaty too. We sweat for all kinds of reasons — freaking out over a test, watching IU play in the NCAA tournament, or dancing with friends at a Little 500 concert. And like our four (or more) years at IU, these are things that we all encounter. Look at Mera Dickensheets as she rows 10,000 meters before 9 a.m., or Winston Fiore when he hits the 5,000 mile mark on his walk, or Lorri and Steve Zeller as they cheer on their son Cody. So hopefully this issue shows you that sometimes it’s okay to get a little sweaty. Just ask our cover models.

Spinning wheel of death got you down?

IT’S UITS TO THE RESCUE We’ve all experienced this scenario: It’s finals week at Herman B Wells Library. You’ve finally snagged a computer and spent the day writing, citing, and editing when Microsoft Word quits unexpectedly. The biggest paper of your semester is due in 10 minutes. Luckily, you can thank one of the University Information Technology Services staff members who have the solution. All it takes is a few clicks of the mouse and bam — that analysis of Kerouac’s “On the Road” is gleaming back at you like a beacon of white light. Julie Byers, junior UITS staffer and computer science major, shares what it’s like to be the perpetual problem-solver when that spinning rainbow wheel just won’t go away.

What are some of the most common problems students have? There are a lot of simple Microsoft Word issues, printing PDFs, and students in the business school who need help with Microsoft Access. And I’ve actually had a lot of people break the hard drives in their computers before. They’ll stick a flash drive in and break it, so pieces of it will still be in there. I had a guy come up to me with his flash drive and tell me it wasn’t fitting in the computer, and there was a bunch of lint in there. He said, “Can you clean it out?” which was weird. So I cleaned laundry lint out of his flash drive. Do students come to you and expect you to perform miracles? There have been times when people’s computers have just completely restarted on them and they come to me like, “Well, can you fix this?” People expect you to know everything

about computers, which we really don’t. For example, I’m really good with Photoshop but not so great with Access. I just try my best. Does it ever get annoying dealing with students’ issues? Well there aren’t many women in this field, and I’ve had guys come up to me who say, “Oh, can you get a guy to help me since they know it better?” And I tell them I know it just as well, but they don’t care. It surprises me because, you know, we live in the 21st century, and they still act like that. What’s the craziest thing you’ve encountered on the job? Any meltdowns? There will always be the ridiculous stories. But sharing specific details would break UITS confidentiality. I think if I talked about one, the person would read it and know it was about them.

BE THE GEEK SQUAD

Solve your own laptop mishaps like the pros.

Mac users: ers: If the rainbow whe wheel has popped up and won’t stop spinning, it means your computer is trying to run application but failed. Right-click the application icon (i.e. Safari, Word, PowerPoint) and select “Force Quit.”

IN S I DE M A G A Z I N E l S W E AT

Everyone: If you spill water, unplug the machine and take out all removable parts, like the hard drive, CD drive, battery, and keyboard. Tilt the laptop on its side to drain out the water, then use a can of compressed air to blow-dry the inside. Let it sit next to a vent overnight.

PC users: If your laptop is operating slowly, the data in your computer may be “fragmented,” or scattered haphazardly. You can fix this by accessing the “defragmenter” tool in your settings.

LIFE AS AN NCAA ATHLETE Mera Dickensheets, sophomore Sport Rowing Major Biology Minor Spanish Spring semester credit hours 15 Hours at practice in season 20 Mera walked on to the rowing team as a freshman, but has since risen to one of the team’s top spots. She, like the majority of women on the team, had never rowed before coming to IU. A basketball player in high school, she decided to try it out because she knew someone from her basketball team who had also joined IU’s rowing team. “We get a lot of walk-ons, but she’s one of those few and far between gold mines,” IU Coach Steve Peterson says.

Ditching the StairMaster

Five workouts that will whip you into shape

When it comes to fitness, we pretty much have it made right here on campus. But what about those of us who hate the idea of running on the treadmill for an hour? We get it — so we found five unusual workouts that will get you moving. Sometimes all it takes is a new approach, a few friends, and a little bit of a challenge.

MONDAY, MARCH 4 6:20 a.m. Wake up. Drive to Assembly Hall. The team is typically rowing on Lake Lemon, a small reservoir about 10 miles northeast of Bloomington. But at 20 degrees Fahrenheit, it’s still too cold out today to get on the water. For breakfast: A strawberry Quaker chewy yogurt granola bar.

B Y E M I LY FA R RA

“Food isn’t the best combination with this workout,” Mera says. 7:04 a.m. The team of more than 50 women begins a 20-minute run around the hallway outside the main level of Branch McCracken Court at Assembly Hall before they run the stairs. Mera’s listening to: “Dropa-beat Workout” playlist on her iPhone’s Songza app. 7:10 a.m. Sunrise. 7:58 a.m. Mera walks to her parked white Chevrolet Impala. She’s listening to: Taylor Swift’s Red album as she drives to the University Gymnasium at 10th Street and the Ind. 45/46 Bypass. 8:11 a.m. Stops in the locker room to change shirts before heading into the ERG, a room full of stationary rowing machines. Today, each team member must row 10,000 meters before she can finish her workout. The team’s listening to: Taio Cruz and Jason Derulo

HOT YOGA

at Vibe Yoga Studio 1705 N. College Avenue $15 per class, $49 for unlimited one month membership Have you ever read celebrity interviews in which the stars reveal — gasp — that they hate working out? They’re lying. Really. In fact, many of them can credit their hard bodies to years of trendy hot yoga sessions. We know what you’re thinking: Doesn’t everyone get hot when they do yoga? Maybe, but “hot yoga” is different. Instead of going through tricky poses in a regular studio, you stretch, tone, and sweat for 90 minutes in a room that’s set to 105 degrees Fahrenheit and 40 percent humidity. It’s like exercising in a sauna. Any form of yoga is good for the mind — it forces you to meditate and breathe deeply — and many of the poses, like the plank, sculpt muscles all over your body. But hot yoga takes it to a whole new level. A warm body burns more fat, so you can shed anywhere from 500 to 1000 calories in a single hot session. This leads to weight loss and eventually a faster metabolism, lower blood pressure, and reduced anxiety. “I think hot yoga is so popular because it’s challenging,” Vibe studio manager Erin Thomas says. “I think that’s the biggest draw. The sweat detoxes the body and helps you get into the postures throughout the class. You’re kind of releasing all the day’s work and all the stuff we take into our bodies.”

NO EXCUSES Does the mere sight of a treadmill make you cringe? Exercise-phobia is no longer an excuse for flab. Ther re are There many other w ways, like hot yoga yoga,, to break a swea at other sweat than jogging at the SRSC.

NO FEAR Don’t be nervous nervvous about workin ng out working in front of oth hers. others. Use the grou up group energy to take takke it to the next le evel, level, Cassie says.

CROSSFIT

at CrossFit Bloomington 3903 S. Walnut Street Student price: $75 for one month There’s a reason army rangers, marines, and martial artists are all in such great shape: They do CrossFit. CrossFit is a strength and conditioning program that, unlike a regular gym routine, emphasizes constantly changing activities that are performed at high levels of intensity. It’s the opposite philosophy of running three miles on a treadmill every single day. Each CrossFit training session is different from the last to target every part of the body and keep your muscles active. CrossFit also stresses that exercise should not be a solo endeavor. Working out with friends or like-minded individuals is both motivating and competitive. Some of the moves you can expect from a CrossFit class include sprinting, flipping tires, rowing, climbing rope, pull-ups, and box jumps — so it really is like boot camp. And if a busy schedule is what’s keeping you out of the gym, CrossFit may be the answer. Sessions are typically very short (we’re talking 30 minutes), but they require you to give it everything you’ve got. “There’s the group support, and the movements are about the entire body,” owner and manager of CrossFit Bloomington Geoff Pitluck says. “It’s not routine. If people are having a hard day at work, they show up and start working out with the group, and the music is up, and they’re having a blast.”

BOULDERING

at Eigenmann Hall 1900 E. 10th Street $5 per day, $55 annual membership Since the IU Outdoor Adventures program moved to Eigenmann, students can use the residence hall’s rock walls for recreational purposes, including bouldering, the latest challenge in climbing. Bouldering is a style of rock climbing that emphasizes strength building, problem solving, and dynamics. Climbers do not use a rope and generally focus on short sequences to maximize power. At the IUOA rock-climbing wall, students can sign up to become bouldering “route setters” and create the paths others follow during a typical session. “It’s more self motivated,” IUOA trip leader Sam Wright says. “You’re challenging yourself to do harder and harder things and to get stronger and think more creatively.”

OBSTACLE RUNS

POLE DANCING

If you’re wondering why that ridiculously in-shape Facebook friend of yours is caked in mud in his profile picture, he probably just competed in a Tough Mudder event. Tough Mudder, designed by British Special Forces, is just one of the many types of endurance runs that focus on getting down and dirty. Though there are currently no Tough Mudder runs scheduled around the Bloomington area, a similar race, called the Dirty Girl Run, is coming to Indianapolis May 18. It’s a five kilometer, unlimited obstacle course that costs $75 and includes mud pits, climbing, and army crawling. The run has 12 stages of obstacles with names like “Stairway to Heaven,” “PMS (Pretty Muddy Stuff),” and “Funky Monkey.” Here’s the catch: The race is only open to ladies. However, it welcomes women of all ages and athletic abilities. If you can’t complete an obstacle, you can take one of the “adventure race detours.” Just make sure to wear something you can get a little dirty in.

at Indy Pole Fitness 324 W. Main Street No. 201, Greenwood, Ind., 46142 $20 per class, $70 for four class package Pole dancing may bring to mind images of cheap lingerie and neon lights, but the popular exercise technique is much more than plastic heels and nightclubs. Contrary to the “stripper” stigma, pole dancing studios emphasize the beauty and strength of pole dancing. It’s an aesthetic dance as well as a bodysculpting exercise. Pole dancing is high intensity during the climbs, spins, and floor maneuvers, but after those bursts of energy, your heart rate decreases as you rest. This kind of interval training burns more fat and calories than standard cardiovascular activities like running, and tones the muscles in the thighs, butt, arms, back, and shoulders. Pole dancing has mental benefits as well: Women report feeling sexier each time they learn a new move, like the “Fireman Spin.”

BOOTY WORK: ZUMBA By the en end of the first semester freshm year, Zumba of her freshman leader Cassie Dugan says she was taking about eight Zumba classes No a little more than per week. Now, s a year later, she’s the one at the c head of the class. i a type of interval Zumba is that based around training that’s La music, Latin, and hip-hop m dance moves . Dugan, e by the Aerobics certified Fit and Fitness Association of Amer America and the Zumba Academy org organization, shares some tips for first-timers.

Not a dancer? Not a problem

How it works

“Don’t be intimidated with the name of Zumba. There are a lot of moves that look hard that are really not. And I try to break those down in my classes.”

Warm-up: about 2 songs Core workout: 7 or 8 songs Cool down: 2 songs

Get into it

Monday 6:15 p.m. Tuesday 12:15 and 9:30 p.m. Wednesday 5:45 p.m. Thursday 9 p.m. Sunday 6:15 p.m.

“I want them to see that I’m passionate about it, so they’ll thrive off the energy and get a better workout and have more fun from it.” Bring friends “You typically have a lot of fun when you’re there with your friends because you’re all there shakin’ and then there comes that part where it’s the popping and the booty work, and everyone’s like, ‘Oh yeah, the booty work!’”

Take it to the trail City: The B-Line trail extends 3.1 miles through downtown Bloomington. Country: Leonard Springs Trail at Leonard Springs Nature Park is 1.1 miles long.

Hot wheels Beginner or buff, the gear you need for B-Town biking

THE CASUAL RIDER Helmet The signature biking accessory. Choosing to bike with a helmet is hands down the smartest decision you can make on the road. So protect your noggin — it’s what got you here in the first place! Haircut Biking in warm temperatures can mean sweaty, matted hair. Regardless of your sex, now’s your opportunity to rock a shorter, cooler haircut. T-shirt The American classic. A T-shirt is a surefire way to ride in casual comfort. Jean shorts (i.e. “jorts”) It is scientifically possible to rock jean shorts without looking like a misguided tourist. Cut just below the knees and roll up the cuffs. Now you’re riding comfortably and in style. Tennis shoes Because riding barefoot sucks.

Bloomington is crazy about bicycles. And you don’t have to be a Little 500 speedster to appreciate life on two wheels. We’re here to educate you on biking basics, starting in first gear. Try to keep up! “You can get anywhere on campus faster than with any other method of transportation,” Bikesmiths employee Erik Paavola says. “And it saves you a bunch of money.” Paavola says bike shops tend to experience a boom in customer interest during the spring as Bloomington’s weather usually improves from March to mid-April. As a result, many newbies find themselves riding in the streets for the first time, and sharing the road with trucks and buses can be downright intimidating. “People should not necessarily be afraid to ride in the street,” Paavola says. “Ride in the lane. Like, right in the lane. Because it’s your right to do that.” Riding a bicycle on the sidewalk is not only dangerous, but illegal in Indiana. Bloomington laws designate a “share the road” policy, treating cyclists as equals to motor vehicles. “If you’re going to ride in the street, you’ve got to stop at stop signs and stoplights or people are going to think you’re an asshole,” Paavola says. Once bicyclists and commuters have mastered the laws of the road, the rest is up to preparation and dressing appropriately. “If you have a rack or panniers on your bike, putting your stuff there will keep you much cooler,” Paavola says. “When you’re carrying your backpack on your bike, you’re going to get really sweaty. It doesn’t allow you to breathe. Getting the backpack off you, initially, is going to be a big help. You don’t need to get to class as fast as you can.” Lastly, the secret to being a happy cyclist is keeping your bike yours. Investing in a quality lock, like the Kryptonite or OnGuard brands, keeps bike thieves at bay. “If you have a bike that you found or bought on Craiglist for $5 or $10, do whatever with it,” Paavola says. “But if you spent any money on your bike, and your bike means something to you and you want to keep that bike, don’t buy a cable lock. Ever.”

THE SERIOUS RIDER Biking cap Often falsely worn in lieu of a helmet, these caps are meant to provide a little comfort or warmth under a helmet, as well as to shield your eyes from sunlight. Jersey Slick, formfitting race jerseys improve aerodynamics while riding. Biking shorts Usually in cohorts with the Lycra or spandex jersey, the biking shorts are meant for dedicated riders. And they make your butt look terrific. Toe clips For the die-hards yet again, toe clips temporarily lock your feet to the pedals for optimum speed and control. Failure to master can result in crashes akin to “cow tipping.”

Flaming foods It’s not uncommon for brows to drip at the taste of a small cayenne pepper. José Bonner, a professor who teaches Biology of Food, has a seasoned tongue for these flaming cuisines and can explain the common steamy reaction. “Chemicals in spicy foods, like chile peppers, interact with our heat-sensing receptors and make the neurons fire,” Bonner says. The effect of spicy foods depends on the temperaturesensing neurons, not our taste buds. So the spicier something tastes, the higher the body’s temperature will rise — to the point where it might actually break a sweat. Feeling daring? Test your taste buds with Bonner’s zesty recipe. Just be sure to have a glass of milk nearby to quench the flames. SMOKEY HABAÑERO SALSA 1 ripe tomato 1 habañero chili 1 chipotle Juice from 1/2 “juice” orange Dash of onion and garlic salt 1. Put chipotle in boiling water, turn off heat and let cool, chop very fine. 2. Remove skin from tomato, chop coarse. 3. Grind the habañero and use as much as you’re comfortable with. 4. Squeeze to juice from 1/2 of a “juice” orange.

NOSY NELLIE How to tell someone they smell — the polite way

lassrooms can be tight quarters, especially in crowded lecture halls across campus. So, if you find yourself sitting next to someone who smells, here are tips from tried and true etiquette experts. Use these to address the issue that will save your nose and the dignity of the person in question.

Emily Post wrote “Etiquette in Society, in Business, in Politics, and at Home,” an elaborate book crammed with tips on how to behave and impress: “You might say, ‘Tom, I’d like to talk to you about a difficult issue. I hope if the situation were reversed that as my friend, you would talk with me. Are you aware that you have body odor?’”

BY BELLE KIM

Dear Abby, the advice column founded by Pauline Phillips in 1956, answers readers’ pleas for help in all areas of life: “You must tell her! But do it with kindness ... Tell her it is essential that she bathe and change all her clothes daily. (P.S. If she is bodily clean, and her clothes are clean, she should see a doctor. A strong body odor can be a symptom of a serious disease.)”

5. Add dashes of onion, garlic salt, or any other spices you prefer. B Y H A N N A H WA LT Z

I L L U S T R AT I O N B Y W I L L R OYA L , P H O T O C O U R T E S Y O F S T O C K E X C H A N G E

Anne the Agony Aunt, the British version of Dear Abby, gives insight to those in dire need: “Say something like, ‘I’m awfully sorry to be the one to tell you, but I like you and it’s something that will help you so please forgive me. I’m afraid you have a problem with body odour.’”

Christine Adamson, senior elementary education major “When my brother was going through puberty and would smell bad, I’d say, ‘Ew, you smell like boy. Go put on deodorant.’ I think he felt kind of bad at first, but then he got used to it. “I also work with firstgraders, and they have hygienic problems, but I can’t tell them they smell. So if they get really close to me or something, what I generally do is say, ‘You’re in my bubble. My personal space.’ Then they just giggle and back off.”

EW. GROSS. The ins and outs of perspiration

here are sprays and deodorants to get rid of it. People keep their arms down to hide it. Some even get Botox to stop it. But Joel Stager, professor in kinesiology and director of the Counsilman Center for Science of Swimming, says sweat is actually a healthy response that we shouldn’t try to avoid.

What’s in sweat? Here’s the basic breakdown: Sodium: 0.9 gram/liter Potassium: 0.2 gram/liter Calcium: 0.015 gram/liter Magnesium: 0.0013 gram/liter However, there are subtle differences from person to person, so these amounts don’t apply to everyone. Why do we sweat? When our body overheats, like during exercise, our core body temperature increases. To offset this change, the body gets rid of internal heat by sweating. How much do athletes sweat? Why do they sweat so much? High performance athletes, like basketball players, can sweat at a surprising rate of one to one-and-ahalf liters per hour. But when they immediately wipe off the sweat with a towel the sweat can’t really do its job. “When sweating at this rate, it’s not effective,” Stager says. “The sweat must evaporate off the skin. If you wipe it off, it has no role in cooling the body. It must be on the surface of the skin to be effective.” How much should we drink when working out to stay hydrated? The American College of Sports Medicine recommends drinking about eight to 10 ounces of water every 15 minutes during your workout. But if you exercise for more than an hour, consider subbing water for a sports drink. After your workout, continue

IN S I DE M A G A Z I N E l S W E AT

drinking water to replace any lost fluids. You can weigh yourself before and after you exercise to determine exactly how much water is lost while working out, Stager says.

HOW MUCH DO WE SWEAT? The typical person sweats between 0.8 and 1.4 liters per hour during exercise.

Where do we sweat? Sweat glands are located all over your body. Their density differs depending on race and gender, Stager says. The highest concentration of sweat glands are on the soles of your feet, palms, and scalp. What about stress sweat versus exercise sweat? Eccrine glands excrete the sweat we associate with exercising. This sweat doesn’t smell as bad as stress sweat, Stager says. Apocrine glands emit the smelly sweat beginning at puberty and can be associated with pheromones. “(Stress sweat) is an evolutionary signal that we don’t fully understand,” Stager says. “But it does signal alarm and acts as nonverbal communication when you are in danger.”

Sweatiest athlete The highest recorded sweat rate for an athlete excercising is 3.7 liters per hour by marathon runner Alberto Salazar while practicing for the 1984 Summer Olympics. Our question is: Why was this being recorded in the first place?

How does deodorant and antiperspirant work? Deodorant contains alcohol that temporarily kills the bacteria under your arms, which causes the stink associated with sweating. They may also contain perfume fragrances or essential oils to mask the smell. Antiperspirants try to stop or reduce sweating, preventing the moist climate where bacteria thrive. BY CHRISTINE SPASOFF

Record sweat The highest human sweat rate was measured on a resting body in a hot environment at 5 liters per hour.

SPIRIT SHOP

NOT SWEATSHOP

Workers, wages, and wardrobes When we’re peeling off our spirit wear after watching an intense home game, we seldom pause to consider what other kinds of sweat have gone into those clothes. But IU’s AntiSweatshop Committee did. Established in 1999 to make sure all IU-licensed apparel was made by individuals with basic workers’ rights, the committee closed shop in 2010. Lynn Duggan, associate professor in the labor studies department,

was a part of the committee for 11 years, and she shares how the organization’s impact has continued on. Tell me about IU’s committee. This is part of a national student movement that’s been going on since the ‘90s against exploitation of workers. We established a code of conduct for our suppliers to abide by. The code makes sure that workers have basic rights, like the right to organize. Why was it established? We wanted to increase labor rights for workers around the world that produce goods with IU logos on them. We know students don’t want to wear things that C O N T I N U E D O N PA G E 3 0

Mind games Get inside the heads of three IU baseball players To the untrained eye, America’s pastime might look like a bunch of guys playing tag on the playground. But inside every player’s head lies hundreds of thoughts racing faster than a ball flies from the pitcher’s hand to the catcher’s glove. Every player sweats it out over the mechanics, the techniques, and the countless mind games necessary for a win. But it’s a player’s ability to make sense of those thoughts that allows him to stand out on the diamond.

90 Don’ fee t hes

Justin Cureton, junior (right)

Justin Cureton’s speed on the base paths gives opposing pitchers and coaches headaches, and he knows it. Cureton stole 21 bases on 25 attempts last year, fourth most in the Big Ten. It’s all a mind game for Cureton when he gets, or doesn’t get, the steal sign from his coach. Like a game of poker, Cureton must maintain his composure so he can get into the opposing pitcher’s head. That’s the key to winning. “I try to keep the same look every time, even if I’m not stealing. I try to appear to the team and the pitcher that I’m not stealing.” Studying the pitcher is crucial to Cureton’s base-stealing ability. When he gets the steal sign, he waits for the pitcher to come set before getting his lead. Then, it becomes a waiting game. “When he gets set, all I’m looking at is his feet. If he’s a righty, I look at his left foot, and once that goes up, I’m going,” he says. “If he’s a lefty, I go on first movement. No matter what.” Joey DeNato, junior (next page) For Joey DeNato, pitching is all about keeping his mind relaxed. When he steps on the mound, he receives his sign, focuses on the smallest part of his catcher’s glove, takes a deep breath, and starts his delivery toward home plate. Relaxing the mind helps with DeNato’s form. “If you tense up, then your ball flattens out,” he says. “You want a strong front side. You don’t want it to be loose.” Sam Travis, sophomore (online at idsnews.com/inside) An 80 mph fastball reaches home plate in .480 seconds. For Sam Travis, reacting to a pitch in that fraction of a second is clockwork. Countless hours in the batting cage have prepared him for a process that takes merely seconds, but it’s what goes on in his head that makes Travis one of the best hitters in the Big Ten. Travis doesn’t have the time to worry about mechanics while staring down a fastball. “It’s all reaction,” he says. “Obviously, you work on something in practice, so in the game it’s all reaction.” P H OTO S A N D S TO RY B Y B E N M I K E S E L L

OUR GENERATION SPENDS 2 HOURS OUTDOORS. OUR GENERATION SPENDS 10 HOURS ONLINE. WE’RE TECHNOLOGICAL, YES, BUT ARE WE LAZY? BY MICHELA TINDERA PHOTO BY STEPH AARONSON

IN S I DE M A G A Z I N E l S W E AT

t’s 6:30 p.m. on a Tuesday and Union Board president Jared Thomas has been in a suit for hours — and we’re not talking about the kind you wore during spring break. Jared stops for a few minutes in the busy Union Board office after attending a reception for the unveiling of a Little 500 trophy in the Indiana Memorial Union. Between the 25 hours per week he spends in the Union Board office and his 14 credit hour course load, he says it’s finding the time to eat that can be a problem. As a junior, Jared was born in 1991 — right smack in the middle of the recently-named millennial generation. Classified by the Pew Research Center as the segment of the population born between 1980 and 2000, they — well, we — are described as the first to “come of age” in the new millennium. We were the first ones to spend their mornings playing Gameboys on the bus ride to elementary school, the first ones to stay up late chatting on AOL Instant Messenger, the first ones to squish into tiny bathrooms for MySpace photo shoots. And now, the first ones to spend days lying in bed and watching all nine seasons of “How I Met Your Mother” on Netflix. So, with all of this snap-of-thefingers-access, it begins to beg the question: Are we lazy? The millennials are also the first generation to spend more time on the Internet than watching television, and the first generation to see rising rates of early on-set obesity-related diseases. In a Gallup Poll released in April 2012, 59 percent of young adults between 18 and 29 reported they felt they spent too much time on the Internet, 58 percent said they felt they spent too much time on their cell phones, and 48 percent said they spent too much time using social media sites. But how does this compare to a student on IU’s campus? “Well, my Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Thursdays are pretty busy,” senior exercise science major Carly Scheid says. A typical day for her begins at 6:30 a.m. She wakes up to get ready for her four classes that day, which begin at 8 a.m. After her 1

p.m. class she’ll typically stop at home, before going to the gym. From there she’ll go on to her biology professor’s office hours, then back home for dinner before spending the rest of her night at the library studying. So, couch potatoes? Carly disagrees. “I feel like that’s what a lot of people in different generations think about the younger one,” Carly says. “I feel like I personally work really hard.” Seating is limited inside the waiting room on a Wednesday afternoon at the Career Development Center. And while more than half of students the building on North Jordan Avenue serves have majors within the College of Arts Sciences, students also come from the Kelley School of Business, the School of Public

and Environmental Affairs, and other schools across campus to receive career guidance. Patrick Donahue, Career Development Center Director, notes the increase of student appointments within the Career Development Center since the 2003-2004 school year when the center began keeping records. They’ve gone from around 9,700 student contacts to more than 16,000 in 2011-2012. Donahue meets with students daily to help them find internships, prepare for interviews, and perfect their resumes. He’s worked in career advising for almost 20 years, and he says students are working as hard as, if not more, than they did two decades ago. “My gosh, they’re not lazy,”

he says. “You all are working parttime jobs, you’re doing classes, you’re studying, you’re busier than anyone else is because you’ve been told these are the things you have to do.” Rather, he says it’s more that the modes of communication have changed within the job search process. “When you have a generation who is hiring, who is accustomed to one form of communication, and then you have a generation that’s coming up that’s used to another form of communication, how does that work?” he asks. His job is to help students bridge that gap with potential employers. But he says for the most part, the students he sees are still willing and eager to make these concessions. “The truth is that my generation needs to adapt and say, ‘Here are the great things about social media. We need to adapt these forms and use social media within our organization.’” Professor Rae Sovereign is currently teaching several online topics courses within the department of labor studies, and because students don’t have to come into the classroom, she teaches “traditional” college students as well as non-traditional students in their 30s and 40s. “I don’t consider any worker that sits behind a desk and does a full eight hours of work, and works for a wage and has to deal with muscular-skeletal problems because of sitting,” she says. “I don’t consider that to be lazy. Just because somebody’s not out in the field plowing and doing manual labor doesn’t mean they’re lazy. “It just means that they’re doing a different kind of work and that all work has dignity and should be respected.” Amidst the Ping Pong tables and autographed concert posters, the Union Board office is bustling with activity on this Tuesday evening. Before hurrying off to the Sandra Fluke panel in the Whittenberger Auditorium — Jared says he likes to attend as many Union Board programs as possible to support his fellow directors — he comments that labeling a generation lazy isn’t completely accurate. “I think it depends on the person honestly,” Jared says. “I think it comes down to more personal drive and motivation.”

IDSNEWS.COM/INSIDE • INSIDE MAGAZINE 17

Three minivans and 320,000 miles later, Steve and Lori Zeller are climbing into their SUV to make the four-hour drive to Dayton, Ohio for their son Cody’s first and second round games of the NCAA tournament. But this four-hour drive is small change compared to the five hour commutes to Notre Dame University to watch their oldest, Luke, or the 11-hour treks to the University of North Carolina to see their middle son, Tyler, play. After watching their sons in hundreds, if not thousands of games, Lorri and Steve have gotten their nerves under control — for the most part. Games in the tournament are different. “Other games are sometimes just a loss on your schedule, but this time you lose and you go home, so it is a little bit more nerve wracking.” Lorri says like any good parents, they’re happy to support their kids. “We didn’t spend a lot of time yelling or screaming at games or spending a lot of time criticizing the boys after games,” Steve says. “What we did was we supported them before the game. We prepared them for the game.” Sophomore forward Cody Zeller fights the defender for a better position under the basket. Will Sheehey throws the ball to Cody over the Temple player. He catches it. Thinking he has a clear shot, he leaps for the dunk. As the ball heads for the basket, Temple’s

Anthony Lee swats the ball out of Cody’s two hands and into the backboard. The ball falls back into play, and Cody crashes to the floor on his back. IU is down 33-28 with 16 minutes left in the second half. But Lorri says she stayed calm. “It is part of the game,” she says. “It wasn’t a big deal.” Playing basketball is in Cody’s genes. Three generations of Zellers have heard the squeak of shoes on the court and swish of the net. Lorri’s mother and father both played high school basketball. Her father led his team to a Nebraska state championship in 1942. He wore number 40. Now all three Zeller boys wear number 40 in honor of their grandpa, Marvin. Number 40 was already taken when Tyler, 23, got to UNC in 2008, so he wore 44 in honor of Lorri’s brother, Al. But once he began playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2012, he reclaimed the number 40. Lorri and Steve said they never expected to raise three basketball stars. “I noticed that they were special when they were born, I just didn’t know what talent they were going to have,” Steve says. That, and they just kept growing. They even outgrew 6-foot Lorri

and 6-foot-4-inch Steve. By the time Luke, 26, was in sixth grade he was 6 feet 2 inches tall. Now he clocks in at 6 feet 10 inches tall. While Tyler and Cody are both 7 feet tall, Lorri says she thinks Cody might just be taller than Tyler. No one is tall enough to tell, though, she says, laughing. Even though they lived in Iowa, Steve, 50, and Lorri, 51, remember watching the Bobby Knight era of Dane Fife, AJ Moye, and Jared Jeffries on TV. They say they thought IU was a talented, respectable team. “They work hard and do things the right way,” she says. “We never knew we would have a son grow up, or have a son first of all, and live in Indiana, grow up and play for that team. It is pretty ironic.” Irony? Or maybe fate? Now as they sit behind the bench listening to IU Coach Tom Crean shout plays and the team strategies, Lorri says she feels like she has a part in the culture of Indiana

Sweat beaded upon Winston Fiore’s forehead. It saturated his cargo shorts, T-shirt, and woolen socks. It clung to his skin as he neared the day’s roughly 25-mile mark after hours on foot. As the IU grad walked along the highways, cars rushing past provided hints of breeze. On nights when he found $10-pernight hotels in Thailand, he dried his clothes over the air conditioner while he slept. He would wake the next morning to find his clothes wearable, but they would be stiff once the liquid evaporated, leaving only the salt lodged between fibers of synthetic fabric. In the middle of Malaysia, though, hotels were too expensive. When the sun began to set, Winston set up camp. Finding a place to sleep was an art and a science — choose too open of an area and you risk being disturbed by law enforcement or passersby. Choose an area with too much cover and you forego the chance to enjoy the breeze. Winston spent many nights with his two-man tent enshrouded by trees in oil palm plantations. All he wanted to do was sleep, but his body would not cool down from the day’s walk. He lay there awake, sweat clinging to his skin.

At the end of the summer in 2007, Winston moved to New York and received a newspaper article in the mail from his father, who had been keeping his eyes open for a cause for Winston to throw his weight behind. The article told of a non-profit group, the International Children’s Surgical Foundation, founded by a surgeon who performed cleft repair surgeries in developing countries. “I read a piece about these guys,” Patrick Fiore wrote to his son. “It’s something you could look into.” About one or two out of every 1,000 children is born with a cleft lip or palate, a developmental abnormality affecting a child’s mouth and palate. Without corrective surgery the fissure can affect the child’s ability to speak and smile. The smile, Winston Winston o Fiore, says, is at the very core as he appeared a app of human interaction. during n his “To have that 5,000-mile 5,0000 trek. trek e nipped at the bud is — it sucks.

year exploring the world came to him in the back of a flatbed truck during the summer of 2007, as he was driving through stretches of Senegalese countryside. Then 22, he had never traveled beyond the Western world. In Senegal, he witnessed women fetching water from distant sources and people dressed in rags rummaging through trash. It was so different from his middle-class upbringing in Bloomington. His idea began to evolve — he didn’t just want to see the world. He wanted to interact with those living in it, as he had with the people during those three weeks in Senegal. He decided he would travel by foot instead of by car or airplane. But he didn’t want to embark on his adventure without making a positive difference in the places he visited, so Winston began to search for a cause to attach to his journey. When Winston returned to Bloomington later that summer, he shared his plan with his parents even though the departure date was years down the road. He wanted to finish college, and that was about two or three years away. “But to be fair, even at that point,” Winston says. “They were becoming used to my shenanigans.” He hadn’t lived in one place for more than a year since he graduated from Bloomington High School North in 2003 — and still hasn’t to this day. Straight out of high school, he served in AmeriCorps, followed by two years with the Marines, one year in New York City, one in Bloomington to attend IU, and another to study in Peru. He graduated from IU in 2009, and shortly after that, was deployed to Afghanistan with the Marines.

for children to be living like this.” Winston adopted the International Children’s Surgical Foundation as a focal point for his journey. In late September 2011, he set off on a 5,000-mile trek from Singapore, through Malaysia, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam, into China and Taiwan, through the Philippines and Brunei and back to Singapore. He carried everything in nylon sacks attached to his tactical vest. The left pocket of his vest bore the web address he created for his journey, which he called “The Smile Trek.” Over a pocket on his right hand side, he carried a set of pictures of a girl before and after her cleft repair. Winston spent 412 days walking the trek. He was alone most of the time. Sometimes he played John Williams to make his journey seem more epic, but he quickly exhausted his music collection. Instead he downloaded public affairs talks, conversations, and interviews that allowed him to temporarily retreat into Western culture. “You really — I don’t want to say drive yourself crazy — you seek out, as much as possible, conversation with other Englishspeakers,” he says. Hearing conversations in his native tongue, even prerecorded ones, felt rewarding. Outside major cities, in-person conversations with Englishspeakers were rare. “It seems silly, looking back, like, ‘Oh, another Anglo. Let’s talk. You speak English, I speak English

— let’s connect,’” Winston says. There were the Westerners cross-country biking across Thailand. There was the French woman cycling through Laos. There was the group of white men riding Harley-Davidsons in Palawan, Philippines. And there were the American sailors in Malaysian Borneo where a naval fleet had docked. “If we were to run into each other in Bloomington, we wouldn’t talk,” Winston says. “It’s because we’re outliers in whatever country that we have

that connection.’” But in Vietnam, China, and Taiwan, there was no one. * * * A pack of stray dogs barked hysterically as Winston, hovering at the 1,000-mile mark of the Smile Trek, chatted on the phone with a member of a Rotary Club. Stray dogs regularly roamed the streets of Thailand, and they often barked at Winston as he walked by. The man on the other end of the line asked Winston if he was

He swung his umbrella at the dog’s face, but blood already pooled around the bite mark. The skin had been broken, and although Winston was about a mile away from his lodging for the night, he knew rabies was a concern. He stopped at a gas station, and the attendant doused the wound in disinfectant and iodine. At the motel, a scooter

taxi brought him to a nearby emergency room, where he received 11 shots — one in each shoulder and forearm, six in the wound on his leg, and one on his left buttock — just as a precaution. * * * The day started at 6 a.m. Any earlier, and Winston would have to pack up his gear in the dark. He turned the screw on his inflatable mattress while still laying on top of it. His weight forced out the air. He sat up, stuffed his sleeping bag back into its sack, rolled up the mattress, dismantled the tent, and put on his vest. Although each morning started basically the same way, the remainder of the day depended on his circumstances. If he was lucky enough to stay with a family inside their home, breakfast and electricity were usually available. If not, he would walk until he found a place with food, coffee, and an outlet for his phone. He would take breaks every couple of hours, ideally at a restaurant where he could eat, dry his feet, and change socks during the same stop. If there was nothing for miles, he would stop by the

“You can only connect with people and with a community so much when you’re just passing through.” side of the road. The best days were those in which he began his walks in the afternoons and continued until 11:30 p.m. That way, the sun beat down brutally for a few hours of the walk but most of the walking occurred past midday, accompanied by a cool and easy breeze. Those days occurred only when he could arrange the night’s lodging ahead of time. People aren’t too receptive to a man knocking on their door after dark, wearing what looks like a suicide vest and speaking a different language, Winston says. Although he never went a night without finding somewhere to rest, finding a place to sleep was a constant source of anxiety. * * * The same year Winston

graduated from IU with his degree in theater, he became disillusioned with acting. It wasn’t a burning passion, he realized. It was just a hobby. “The moment I realized it wasn’t something that I couldn’t live without I said, ‘Well, I better stop now,’” he says. He hasn’t acted since. Somewhere in the middle of Vietnam in February 2012, a friend pulled out her laptop and showed him the documentary, “Dirt! The Movie.” A brief segment about homeowners growing grass on their roofs piqued his interest. He researched green roofs and came upon rooftop farming. “Why not use otherwise wasted space as a food source?” he thought. Some Googling led him to The Urban Canopy in Chicago,

a hydroponic rooftop farm just starting up. Within a week of watching the documentary, Winston got in touch with The Urban Canopy and made plans to work pro bono as an apprentice there. Thirteen months after Winston found out about The Urban Canopy, he moved into an apartment on the south side of Chicago. He had a scheduled start date for the farm and a followup interview scheduled for a wait staff position at a local French restaurant. It was a relief, Winston says, to finally start his return to normalcy. * * * In some ways his experience was monotonous, Winston says. You wake up. You walk. You go to bed. Four months since the end of the trek, Winston catches himself looking back on the experience every now and again and is both overwhelmed and underwhelmed. On one hand, he says, it’s difficult to think about the steps he took through the middle of nowhere. He has no regrets and would embark on another journey C O N T I N U E D O N PA G E 3 0

DOUBLEHEADER When former high school football star Greg Heban arrived in Bloomington for his freshman year in college, he only had one goal in mind: make the IU baseball team as a walk-on. But three years later, Heban found himself back on the Astroturf, named Academic AllBig Ten and honorable mention All-Big Ten — in football. And this fall, Heban will be one of 12 seniors on the team, helping to mold the members of IU’s highest-rated recruiting class into quality college football players. So when the incoming freshmen arrive, they will look to Heban for leadership. The irony in it all, is that when Heban first got to IU, football was the “furthest thing from his mind.” * * * As a student at Delta High School in

Greg Heban’s journey from baseball walk-on to football standout BY JORDAN LITTMAN

Muncie, Ind., Heban played three sports. He was a wingback and cornerback for the football team, a point guard and shooting guard for the basketball team and a pitcher and center fielder for the baseball team. For Heban, playing all three sports allowed him to stay in shape year-round without getting “burnt out” in any one. When his senior year of high school came around, he was still playing on each team. He

received scholarship offers to play football from a few Division III schools; however, he says his true focus was actually on baseball. As a left-handed pitcher, Heban says he threw 87 to 88 miles per hour. That was enough to gain some college interest, and that, he thought, was where his true passion lay. Though he had offers from smaller schools, nothing compared to the program where he wanted to walk-on: the school where both of his sisters went, and the school he “wanted to come to for his whole life.” That college was IU, and though he received no athletic scholarship, he was accepted and chose to attend school in Bloomington. The summer before his freshman year, there was a reason why football was at the back of Heban’s mind. “I was too focused on trying to impress the baseball coaches,” Heban says. “I did miss it at times, but I was trying to get better at just

one sport.” It paid off. In the fall of 2009, Heban was added to IU’s 2010 baseball roster as a walk-on. * * * Heban played on an intramural football team with his teammates and coaches as a way to bond before the baseball season began. He played his traditional positions from high school, and IU Coach Tracy Smith served as the team’s quarterback. Yes, they did go on to win the intramural championship, and yes, Heban, once an allstate football player, was the star. That experience, he says, rekindled his interest in football. During baseball season, he says playing football was always in the back of his mind, especially because moments on the

field were infrequent. Heban only played in two games his freshman year, pitching one-and-a-third innings and allowing an earned run. Because he knew that his future in baseball was doubtful, he approached then-IU football coach Bill Lynch about how to walk onto the team. After earning Smith’s approval, Heban joined the Hoosiers football team during their preseason camp in the fall of 2010. The

transition, he says, was not easy. “People always talk about being in shape, but baseball shape and football shape are two totally different things,” Heban says. “For me, being a pitcher here, it was a lot of long conditioning and campus runs. Coming to football, it was a lot of strength training and agility and quick movements.” * * * As a walk-on, Heban says he didn’t know anyone on the team. None of the coaches knew him, either. Because of this, he realized he had to work harder than anyone else to try to catch the coaches’ collective attention. In his first year with the team and his second on IU’s campus, Heban played in all 12 games as cornerback and on special teams. He

shared the team lead with five pass break-ups and also recorded 40 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss and one interception. He was selected for ESPN’s Big Ten AllFreshman Team and was IU’s Special Teams Player of the Year. However, on Nov. 28, 2010, only a day after an overtime victory over Purdue, in which Heban led all IU cornerbacks with five tackles, Lynch was fired. Once again, with an entirely new coaching staff starting, Heban was faced with the challenge of proving himself worthy of earning playing time. One of the new members of that staff was co-defensive coordinator and safeties coach Doug Mallory, who says he was instantly impressed with Heban’s work ethic. “Greg has a great feel for what we’re doing back there,” Mallory says. “He’s a guy that understands everyone’s responsibilities and is an extremely hard worker. “He’s someone that we see as a leader out there for us.” It came as no surprise then, that during the summer before his sophomore season, new IU Coach Kevin Wilson decided to offer Heban a scholarship. During the 2011 season, Heban started all 12 games for the Hoosiers, led the team with two interceptions, and shared the lead for pass

break-ups with six. He also finished the season with 60 tackles, third-best on the team. With that experience gained during the first two seasons, Heban says that he feels he gained an instinct toward making plays. “You have more confidence in yourself,” Heban says. * * * That confidence paid off in finishing as IU’s top defender in its 2012 season, one in which the team improved its record by three wins. Heban led the team with 91 tackles, three interceptions and eight pass break-ups. Overlooked in that success; however, was a midseason position change from his traditional role as a cornerback. Before the Hoosiers’ game against Ohio State on Oct. 13, 2012, IU’s coaching staff decided to move Heban from the nickelback position to safety. The move, Mallory insisted, would be so that Heban could be most effective on the field. “It’s been a pretty smooth transition,” Mallory says. “I think he’s athletic enough that

he could play any spot in the secondary, but I think he’s physical enough to play safety.” Though the transition is still ongoing — Mallory would still like Heban to become more physical even though he has gained 15 pounds since his freshman year — he admitted he has been pleased with the progress made. He also says he thinks Heban will do just fine in adjusting to a leadership role next season, one that he hopes to see marked improvements team-wide. “When other kids watch the time and effort that he puts into practice and the way he prepares, it shows some pretty good leadership qualities,” Mallory says. “And I think he’s a guy that won’t have a problem with speaking up too. “If someone isn’t doing something right, he’ll step up and make sure they’ll get it corrected.” Sure, Heban might have started his college career playing the “wrong sport,” but at this point, it has all come together for the rising senior. He says he has no regrets from his experience and that if anything, it has prepared him more for what could come in the future: an NFL opportunity. “You can’t go in there with the mindset thinking that you’re not going to make it,” Heban says. “You have to have faith and spirit that you can make it.”

basketball. However, once Cody started college, his parents handed him over to the coach and to the university. “We’re not really calling the shots, it’s the coaches,” she says. As a high school senior, Cody’s choice came down to three schools: IU, Butler University, and UNC. He had visited IU countless times with his brothers during their own recruitment processes. “When he started being recruited it was like it was finally his turn,” Lorri says. She says she could’ve pictured her son at any of his top three schools, but Cody just felt like the teammates and the school were a good fit for him. He was also excited to play for Coach Crean. Cody had a press conference at 1 p.m. in November 2010 to announce which college he had chosen. He came home from school for lunch to make phone calls to all of the coaches and saved Crean for last. Lorri and Steve were in the sunroom eating, and Lorri remembers overhearing Cody’s conversation. He called and said, “Coach, I just wanted to let you that I’ve been calling the schools to let them know where I am going to be going to college, and I’m just calling, it’s really hard to do, but I have two schools that I have to call to tell them my decision, and that’s what I am doing now.” Silence. Cody continued, “But I have PHOTO BY STEPH LANGAN

already called those two schools, so I am calling you to tell you that I’m coming to IU.” More silence. “Coach, are you okay?” “Oh my gosh, you just gave me a heart attack, Cody!” “It was so funny, but he really led him to believe he was one of the two that didn’t make it. They have a great relationship,” Lorri says, laughing. “He was worried for a few seconds there.” Competition doesn’t live only on the hardwood for the Zeller family. The raggedy net, gray and drooping, barely hangs on for life in the driveway of the Zeller household. “There were a lot of big battles in the driveway and our hoop shows it. It is very weathered,” Lorri says. She says she would usually watch from the kitchen window while her sons and husband played. All of the Zellers hate to lose. From pizza-eating to rockthrowing to seeing who could get the best grades, the Zeller family has a habit of making everything a competition. “Whoever loses thinks it’s a bad day,” Lorri says. But she isn’t immune to the competitive bug either. Steve and Lorri also hold little challenges between one another because they don’t like to lose either. They recently competed to see who could lose weight first. They

set a goal for how many pounds they wanted to lose, but regardless of who actually won, they laugh about it now. “When the boys come home, all the pressure is off,” Steve says. “Inside the house and inside our home we do family things and act silly. It is a release, a pressure valve that you’re able to come home and just be yourself.” The boys don’t let their talents define them. “They know they were put in the spotlight for a reason, and that reason wasn’t to show bad characteristics, but to show good characteristics,” Steve says. “I think they do a good job of that.” Lorri and Steve sit four rows from the floor behind the IU bench in the University of Dayton

Arena. Lorri’s fingernails are painted to match her crimson shirt with the IU logo boldly printed on the front. She wears a charcoal blazer with a red scarf around her neck. She stands straight and raises her right eyebrow, clapping as IU ties the game 52-52 with 1:51 left. Steve stands next to her, his arms crossed over his chest wrinkling his red and white pullover in the front. He looks away, pursing his lips. Jordan Hulls sets up low on the key to take the defender off of Cody when he runs by. Cody is now wide open. Yogi Ferrell bounce passes the ball to Cody in the left wing and the defense crashes on him expecting him to take the shot. It’s five on one. He throws the ball to now wide-open Victor Oladipo at the top of the key. Oladipo takes the three-point shot with 14 seconds left on the clock. Whoosh. IU is now up by four, winning the nailbiter, 58-52, in the last minute. “The Temple game was an exciting game to watch,” Lorri says. “But we realize that there isn’t anything that we can do as spectators to change the course of the game. So we just watch and try to enjoy it.” “Everything you learn in sports,” Steve says. “You will be able to use in the rest of your life.” Editor’s note: As of press time, IU had only played through the Temple game in the NCAA tournament.

given the opportunity. On the other hand, it didn’t change him like he anticipated. He didn’t come back as a different person. “The experience was very superficial in a lot of ways too because I never —” He pauses to think. “You can only connect with people and with a community so much when you’re just passing through.”

What kinds of things did the committee seek to accomplish? We ended contracts with companies that had subcontracted to smaller companies that were denying workers their fair rights. Sometimes, we threatened to do so and that was enough initiative for them to clean up their act. A lot of it was just publicity, telling students this was going on and that they needed to stop it. I remember Russell Athletic closed its factory that violated workers’ contracts due to pressure from universities all over the country. Why did you choose to become involved? I care about workers’ health and safety and working conditions. I think it’s possible to improve labor conditions for everyone in the world. We met with the students and helped them in their efforts to educate the administrators and gave advice. So why did the committee stop being so active? The most active students who were really passionate about the issue graduated in 2010. The chapter came to an end in 2010, and a few

people tried to revive it from 2010 to 2011, but it didn’t last long. We just didn’t have enough members. We’d be happy to continue to meet if student interest revived. Why do you think the interest decreased? When something’s new, it’s more fashionable. Other new things were happening around campus. Students didn’t realize this is a current issue that’s ongoing, and that they need to care about it because it’s important. Sometimes, students think other people are on it, and they don’t have to worry about it. Activist students are few and far in between. We need students to be active and cause positive social change. But the “No Sweat” movement doesn’t seem as pressing to students now as the tuition increases. How do you feel about that? I’m disappointed. I think that if we work together in something like this, there’s great potential for improving workers’ rights and wages. But we need students to get on board in order for this kind of activism to continue.

* * * Grass crept onto the concrete porch in front of the house. It was about 5:30 p.m., and Winston was about 25 miles from where his day began. He had digitally scouted out the area on his phone before he set out for the day. In the vast landscape of rural Malaysian Borneo, where only oil palm plantations interrupted the gaping areas of nothingness, it was one of the only ways to guarantee there would be a place to rest at the end of the day. Winston had marked a house, modest in size with a siding roof instead of shingles, as the first place he would try to stay for the night. He knocked at the front door.

A man who appeared to be in his late-60s answered. He was shirtless and lean, possibly a farmer or fisherman, and unfamiliar with English. Winston pantomimed: Looking for a place to sleep. He motioned toward his tent, collapsed and attached to his vest, and pointed into the grass. Can I put my tent here? The man, joined by his wife, motioned in return. No, here. Inside. The man and his wife showed Winston to the wash room, where he cleaned off before dinner. Afterward, Winston inflated his air mattress and unrolled his sleeping bag in the foyer, a large room furnished with a clothes line, two lawn chairs, and a box TV. He fiddled around on his phone until he grew tired, checking his email and surfing the Internet. He ended many nights scrolling through his entire Facebook news feed until it started repeating itself from where it left off the night before. It was a small way to feel connected to his other life, more than 9,000 miles away. PHOTO BY BEN MIKESELL

Sweaty skates and cinnamon rolls How one Inside staffer grew up training to be the next Michelle Kwan

weat dripped off my face. I was cold and wet from the ice that was caked to my hip and leg, but I was still sweating through my T-shirt. “Again,” my coach would say in his thick, Canadian accent. I had to land the axel, the only jump where you take off forward and land backward. I had to do it right. Keep your left shoulder forward, head to the right, don’t force it. Breathe. I soared through the air again, feeling the rotation only long enough to recognize that I was spinning. I became conscious that I was gliding backward. I was on my feet. My gaze shot to my coach as a smile spread across my face. “Do it again,” he said, smirking. When I was four years old, I started figure skating and instantly fell in love with the sport. It felt like flying. I soared across the ice and, eventually, through the air. Whenever I was asked: “What do you want to be when you grow up?” I would always reply: “A famous ice skater.” In fifth grade, I auditioned in Colorado Springs at the World Training Facility, home of the Olympic Village. I got a two-year offer to stay and train in Colorado. Just my mother and I went, leaving my older brother and dad in Floyds Knobs, Ind. But after a little more than 12 weeks, we decided it was too hard to have our family so far apart. So, I went to Cedar Rapids, Iowa, a halfway point between Colorado and Indiana. I knew a coach there who could help me master the axel jump. As I left Colorado, my coach made me promise I would never quit ice skating. “This girl is one in a million, a diamond in the rough. She naturally has what can’t be taught,” she would tell my mom. Every morning before the stoplights in town even came on, my mom and I would get up and head to the rink for four hours of onice training. I would skate laps as fast as I could for 20 minutes, my face flushed red-purple. My mom would complain about how I smelled, and we would stuff newspapers into my skates at night to absorb the moisture. Friends were hard to come by because the other skaters my age were also my competitors.

Boys were an unnecessary distraction and absolutely not allowed. My mom quickly became parent, teacher, coach, bodyguard, chauffeur, and best friend. I trained in Iowa for almost two years. I did yoga and dance, lifted weights, practiced my jumps on the floor, and did pushups in the handstand position: I worked out for a living. By 13, they said I had the muscle capacity comparable to a college athlete. I was about

5 feet 5 inches tall, 120 pounds, and had to eat 4,000 calories every day just to maintain weight. Every morning after my early practices, I would go to Burger King and get two or three egg and cheese croissants and wash them down with a pack of mini cinnamon rolls. I enjoyed every bite, never thinking once about my weight — I didn’t have to. I was supposed to stay at 11 percent body fat to be a healthy female, but I was usually around 7 percent. My body was ripped, but I never saw myself as rocking-gorgeous. It was simply how far I had to push my body in order to see myself on the podium at the Olympics. And I did everything in my power to make sure I made it. But I didn’t make it. I seriously hurt myself the week before regionals. It was gradual, and I was taught to ignore pain, so no one really knew the extent of the injury. My coaches were adamant that I push through the pain and skate in the competition. I could take cortisone shots and take a couple months off afterwards. But I knew I was hurt and so did my mom. I told her to take me home to Indiana. I went to a doctor in Louisville, Ky. He grabbed my ankles, the area of pain, and squeezed. “Does that hurt?” he asked as I flinched. Of course it hurt — he squeezed where I said I had pain. After an x-ray, he told me that I had severe lacerations to my Achilles tendons and tendonitis. He said I was lucky that I stopped when I did, or the tendons would have probably torn, and I would’ve had to have surgery. It would take at least a year to fully heal. He would not let me go back to the ice or do anything other than routine walking until I stopped feeling pain where he squeezed. A year passed, and I tried to return to the ice. It became obvious that I was behind. My coaches had tried to time my performance so I would peak for the Olympics, but I fell short. Every athlete’s worst nightmare is that they could get hurt. But I never thought about it until it happened. I am who I am because I tried to figure skate in the Olympics when so many people told me I would never make it. I don’t regret one bit of my experience — if I had to do it again, I would, endless workouts, early mornings at the rink, and all. BY CARMEN HUFF
