FROM THE PRESIDENT

BY ROCHELLE CHRISTENSEN

H

ello runners,

We are halfway through 2019 and by now many of us have had opportunities to measure some of our 2019 goals. Some are making progress towards goals while some have had some setbacks. I think we have all experienced both progress and setbacks during our running journey. But we keep lacing up the shoes and enjoying our hobby - running!

While volunteering at several MDRA races this spring, I talked to many runners after finishing their races. I saw the joy, passion and the camaraderie of the running community. Thank you to those who volunteered and ran MDRA spring races. If you were not able to attend our spring races, there are still four MDRA events yet this year in August and September: Como Relays, MDRA 15K, Victory 5K/10K and City of Lakes Half Marathon.

MDRA is going green by reducing the amount of waste generation and creating a more positive impact on the environment. MDRA has paperless race and training class registration. We reuse race bibs at several MDRA races. Marathon training classes are using individual reusable cups replacing paper cups. We are always looking for ideas to continue our sustainability efforts.

The MDRA Grant Program through the MDRA Foundation is about providing resources to an organization that promotes participation, safety in running and that demonstrates a financial need to achieve their mission. This is the third year of the MDRA Grant Program providing financial resources. Congratulations to Lucy Laney Running Club on receiving the 2019 grant. Lucy Laney Running Club promotes running for fifth grade girls in North Minneapolis.

We know these dollars make an immediate impact but the long term impact of encouraging running will be priceless to these kids..

Do you want to give back to MDRA? There are a couple options: by donating to the MDRA foundation and/or by volunteering. To contribute to the foundation, go to www. runmdra.org/about-mdra/mdrafoundation. We always need volunteers. If you are interested in being part of our volunteer team go to www.runmdra.org/about-mdra/volunteer/.

In this issue, we remember Gabe Grunewald for her courage and bravery. Her drive, courage and grace has brought the running community together. Her many running achievements are far overshadowed by her personal achievements in her fight for rare cancer research. She taught us all how to be “Brave like Gabe�.

Enjoy your summer and this edition of RunMinnesota.

RUNNING BRIEFS MDRA Community Giving Grant Lucy Laney Running Club, based out of the Lucy Craft Laney Community School in Minneapolis, is the 2019 Community Giving Grant Recipient through the Minnesota Distance Running Association Foundation. Sarah Hodges, an MDRA member and Lucy Laney school psychologist, saw the positive impact that running made on young women and the lack of running role models in the community. Ms. Hodges and the Lucy Laney social workers formed a running group of fifth grade girls three years ago. The grant funds will go toward the fall running club.

Currently, the group has enough funds for 10 to11 girls which helps provide race registration, apparel and transportation to race events. With the grant funding, they can expand to 20 girls and potentially include some third and fourth grade girls as well. The school does not fund the running club and the leaders are volunteers.

The $500 MDRA Foundation Community Giving Grant is awarded each year to help organizations promote youth participation; provide training and education to runners; and to support the running community.

HEALTH

RUNNING FOR

MENTAL HEALTH

‘I wouldn’t be where I am today without running’

BY NATE LECKBAND

O

ne of my least favorite places are

mental hospitals. I made my first trip to one when I was fifteen. While there are many things I could write about, the worst aspect is boredom.

And so, I’ve done my best (not always successfully) to stay out of mental hospitals. A big piece of my puzzle in staying mentally healthy has been exercise — specifically running. It’s been over 20 years since my first visit to a mental hospital, and though I’ve had to go back several times since, I’m certain I would have been in and out of hospitals more had it not been for running.

At 19, I was diagnosed with bipolar depression, and in my twenties a diagnosis of generalized anxiety disorder was tacked on. Though it hasn’t been easy, I’ve only had to go to the

hospital for my mental health four times since 2002, and with a high hospitalization and recurrence rate for people with bipolar, that isn’t too bad.

Before I was diagnosed with bipolar, I had an episode that looked like it could be bipolar. When I had a full blown manic episode a year later, I asked my doctor how I went a year without extreme bipolar symptoms without medication. He told me he believed it was most likely because I was running cross country at the time.

Over the years I’ve found myself to be the most balanced when I’m keeping a regular running routine. When I’m injured, I try to go on a long walks and do a lot of cycling.

While running is beneficial in managing my mental illness, it’s also beneficial for the mental health of those without mental illness.

Studies have shown that exercise can improve

mood, decrease stress, improve cognition and memory, and improve sleep.

The only hurdle I sometimes face is coping with injury. I have to be careful that I’m not running so many miles that I get injured and suddenly can’t run at all. The stress on my mental health of going from running 50 or more miles a week to having to rely on swimming, cycling and walking has led to a dip in my mental wellness several times. I now try to keep my mileage moderate and to cross train frequently so that there isn’t as extreme of a drop off when I’m injured.

I wouldn’t be where I am today without running. I could have higher anxiety, more depression or be at risk for a manic episode. Because of running, I’m able to live a more mentally healthy life.

RACE REPORT

GET IN GEAR RECAP Records fall at 2019 Get in Gear race

Texan Silas kipruto won the overall 10k with a time of 29:32 at the Get in Gear race this april. the women’s winner, vicoty chepngeno broke her own 10k record by 25 seconds.

BY PHILLIP GARY SMITH

T

he dire blizzard forecast for the 42nd

Annual Rite of Spring, Get in Gear (GIG), overhung the race like a raven all week. Executive Director Paulette Odenthal said, “The forecast never once budged and continued to get progressively worse.” Then the Spring snowstorm diverted at the final moment on Saturday, April 27, presenting the event and competitors a near perfect environment for a race. “That was the most amazing gift.”

Texas runner Vicoty Chepngeno broke her own 2018 10K record by 25 seconds in near perfect conditions, a time that had withstood 26 years of attempts to surpass Dr. Janis Klecker’s

1992 mark. Chepngeno’s 32:15 led Minnesota 2018 Runner of the Year recipient, Katy Jermann, by 28 seconds.

Texan Silas Kipruto took the overall 10K with a sub-30 minute mark (29:32) edging GIG’s 2018 overall winner Sammy Rotich by five seconds.

Four Team USA Minnesota members bolstered the elite field: Danny Docherty, Dakota Lindwurm, plus Katy and Tyler Jermann. The two first Minnesotans to cross the line in each class, Sammy and Katy, picked up checks of $250 for this honor.

Added to the venue back in 2009, the GIG Half Marathon found University of Minnesota Cross Country alumni Troy Koivisto winning in 1:14:14. Paul Swim held off Joe Arnold at the

line in 1:15:02 to complete the top three overall.

Lindsey Zimmer utilizing her marathon experience took a top ten overall (7th) along with the class win at 1:20:56.

The popular 5K, added in 2005, attracts veteran runners and young ones, too. The female class winner, 12 year old Claire Vukovics, already sporting an admirable race registry, nailed twelfth overall. Collegeville’s Tremayne Collins won the overall in 16:22. In 2018 he ran border to border across Minnesota’s North Country to raise funds for wounded warriors and veterans.

Save the date for GIG 2020, Saturday, April 25. Early bird registration is open.

PROFILE

SOYBEANS AND MARATHONS

Tim Dufault’s favorite run is hard to beat

BY DENNIS BARKER

T

im Dufault farms in the Red River

Valley near Crookston, Minnesota. He runs on and around his 1,800 acre wheat and soybean farm with his dog, a lab. He is a longtime MDRA member and a founding member of the Crookston Running Club.

How and when did you get into running?

Growing up I hated running. In high school we would have to run the 440 yard dash for gym. We knew nothing about pacing ourselves.

So we would run as hard as we could for the first 220 yards and then stagger and gasp for air the last 220 yards. I didn’t go out for any teams. I didn’t think I could make any of them.

After I started farming there would be early spring days when I would get itchy and just had to get outside. So I would do some short runs of about one to two miles. This would last a couple weeks and then I gave up.

The spring I turned 40 years old I did this again. But this time it stuck. I remember running a mile and a half without stopping. I was pumped. I was really proud of myself. The running bug has stuck with me now for 19 years.

I’m not much of an athlete. I’m just a slow, middle aged, overweight dad. I don’t have a lot of stamina. But I make up for it by being slow. I have been told I have good running form though. Why when I get going, I’ll have all four cheeks and a couple of chins moving in unison.

What was your first race?

We have a local 5K and 10K. I signed up for it but was nervous because I didn’t know how it all worked. But after the race I started talking

12

SUMMER 2019

TIM DUFAULT TAKES A SELFIE ALONG HIS FAVORITE RUNNING TRAIL ON HIS LAND NEAR CROOKSTON, MINNESOTA. to other runners and I liked the social part of it. So we started a running club (The Crookston Running Club) and eventually took over the 5K and 10K. We run it now and raise money for the local schools, police, things like that. We get together once a month at a pizza place and talk about running and a lot of other things.

What are some of your favorite running memories?

Getting lost running is always fun. I was on a trip to Brazil once. We landed in Rio De Janeiro and had some free time that afternoon.

I thought I would go for a run and stretch out

PROFILE my legs after a long flight. I had a nice run along the beach area. But on my way back all the hotels looked alike. My magnetic room key did not have the hotel’s name or address on it. I couldn’t remember the name of the hotel either. After back tracking a few times I eventually found the hotel. But a three mile run became a four mile run.

Another fun memory was a small town 5K a few years ago. At the start of the race the race director was explaining the course to everyone. When he said the water station and turn around point was in front of Steve’s house, I thought I was going to lose it. That’s a small town for you, everyone knows everyone.

In another small town 5K I won the 50-59 year old age group. I was the only one of that age.

One time running on an out of the way gravel road I came upon a badger just coming out of his hole. I think I broke Usain Bolt’s record in the 100 meter dash.

I ran Grandma’s Marathon when Al Franken was starting his campaign for the US Senate.

Somewhere along the course, on a stretch of the highway with no people, was Al Franken shaking hands and cheering on runners. Going by and shaking his hand I remember a guy behind me tell his buddy, “That was cool. I’m not voting for him, but that was cool.” Later in the race as we got into Duluth, I rounded a street corner and there was Franken again. I shook his hand a second time and asked, “Didn’t I just see you back there a few miles?” He looked at me and with a perfect deadpanned expression said, “Yeah, it’s called a car!” I giggled the rest of the race.

How does your work and daily schedule impact your running?

Running and a farmer’s schedule has its pluses and minuses. In the busy times of the year, you just can’t run. Planting and harvest just take priority over everything. We just got done planting everything this May - 16 straight days of go go go. No time to run.

But other times of the year you can quit early and go run. I can run by my fields and check on their progress. More than once I have run in the fields pulling stray weeds or picking up a rock.

Running out in the country, you don’t have to put up with much traffic. If I don’t run on a highway, I can go on a four or five mile run and not see a person. Sometimes I see more tractors than cars.

There’s been a lot of news about soybeans lately. How are you doing?

The tariff/trade war has negatively affected our farm, just like every farm. Lost income and lost chances to sell our crop. Worrying about

the tariffs gives me another reason to lace them up and go.

ago. I had to take most of the year off from running. I started wearing orthotics and it hasn’t bothered me since. I want to get back up to the mileage I was doing before that. I want to run another marathon. My best time is 4:44. I’d love to break 4:30.

Farming can be a very stressful profession.

Does running help deal with that stress?

Running is a great stress reliever. You can work out a lot of problems when you run. More than a few times my wife has told me, ‘You should go run.’ I know I must be in a crabby mood then.

You live in a very flat area. Have you ever done a hill workout?

Our farm is on the eastern edge of the Red River Valley. About two miles from the farm the terrain rises out of the old Lake Agassiz lakebed. I can go in that direction to get some hill work outs. I don’t dislike hills as much as other runners. Maybe because I’m not fast.

How have you fit marathon training into the demands of the farm?

I have run six marathons. All spring marathons. In the winter I can base my work schedule around my training schedule. I would love to do the Twin Cities Marathon, but I don’t know where I would find the time to train. In the winter I do a lot of my running on the treadmill. I’d rather sweat than freeze. I have a lot of movies and Boston Marathons and other videos I watch. And we have a new ice arena in town. It has three ice sheets and a running/ walking track around it that is just under a quarter mile. It’s a little cold in there but after a lap I’m able to take off my mittens. It’s popular so there are a lot of people who I stop and talk with. That kind of breaks up my rhythm, but that’s okay. It’s small town life.

How do you train for your marathons?

I use a Runner’s World training plan for slow, fat guys. You have to watch out with some of those plans. I’m not a Kenyan so some of those plans don’t fit me real well. But I like having a plan because you can’t cheat. If it says six miles or sixteen miles you have to stick to it. Sometimes I add a week or two to the plan on the front end because I know that I might miss some days later when planting starts. Twenty miles is the farthest I’ve run in training. Once you do that, you know you’re ready.

What are your current running goals?

I suffered a bone spur about three years

What is a favorite run or workout?

Three quarters of a mile south of our farmyard is another piece of farmland we own. That quarter section of land has a creek running through it. A few years ago, I started mowing the prairie grass on both sides of the creek. I have my own private cross country course. I can run out to the creek, out and back around it and home again. Three and half miles total, and I’m only off my land when I cross the township gravel road. That is a favorite run.

ANDIE TAYLOR IS A NEW WOMAN

BY SARAH BARKER

A

ndie Taylor is terrified. She fights back tears,

tucking her hair behind her ears, checking her shoelaces. What will people think? Should she really compete?

Taylor, 46, has been running since the age of ten, lining up for races since 1984. But this is her first race as a woman.

“I was afraid that people wouldn’t like me. I didn’t want to cause controversy or take anything away from runners who were born female,” Taylor said. “The running community means a lot to me—I don’t want to be an embarrassment to them.”

The cacophony of thoughts fall away with the starting gun, and it’s quiet—just breath and footfalls, stretching out, simply running, fast. Officially, Andrea Taylor finishes the 2019 TC Mile in 5:37, a race she ran as Andrew Taylor in 2017, in 5:01. *********************************** Andy (now, Andie) Taylor grew up in south Minneapolis (except 1980 - 1984, in suburban Chicago), in the middle of two brothers. Pretty average childhood, sometimes jumping rope with the girls, sometimes playing with the boys.

Hindsight, she admitted, can be tricky but she remembers covering up her genitals at age six or seven. When kids innocently got naked together, she looked at girls’ bodies and thought, that’s what I’m supposed to look like.

This was the 1970s—homosexuality was barely on the radar. Body dysmorphia, the idea of being in the wrong body, didn’t exist outside the medical community. All Taylor knew is that something wasn’t right.

“My dad jogged two to four miles every night. I was a super anxious kid, so when I was about 10, he said, ‘Come run with me.’ I ran two miles without stopping and said, ‘That was the most fun I’ve ever had.’’

Taylor went out for cross country in sixth grade (in Chicago) and was the team’s second runner. “I didn’t see it as stress relief—I really liked competition. I thought, I’ve got some talent. When you discover that in junior high, that’s what you do.”

She ran year round on her own, and when the family moved back to the Twin Cities, joined track at Metcalf Junior High. She’d already cemented her self identity, and her reputation with other kids, as a good athlete, which provided some protection from bullying. But no one survives junior high unscathed

IDENTITY “They said, ‘You walk like a girl, you sit like a girl, you hold your books like a girl.’ I was called gay, sissy, queer. I’d try to play it off and say, ‘I’m a girl-boy,’ but it still hurt, and I’d consciously try to correct girly habits.”

In 1987, at 14 years old, Taylor ran Get In Gear 10K—44:20. She ran cross country and track at Burnsville High School, posting a high school best of 4:36 for the 1600. “That was solid. Between running and music—I was in a band—I got a lot of respect, even if they thought I was girly. And it was not necessarily at odds with how I was feeling to run—it wasn’t a super manly thing like football. I belonged on the running team, like being part of a big family. Being on the team was one of the best things that ever happened to me.

“I was super late on puberty. I had mixed feelings about that because, on one hand, the less male I could look, the better, but I wanted to be able to keep up with guys who were developing.”

At home, Taylor experimented with her mom’s makeup, and shaved her legs, telling her parents it allowed her to run faster. Maybe they thought it was a phase—the elder Taylors didn’t condemn their middle child’s proclivity.

“In high school, I wasn’t sexually attracted to men or girls. I felt emotionally close to girls. I wanted to hold hands and do hair. I had a lot of girlfriends, but did I want to be with them, or did I want to be them? By the end of high school, I definitely wanted to be them. I hated my body.

I’d race in shorts and immediately change into warmups because my legs looked like boy’s legs.”

Taylor followed her older brother to St. Thomas, where she found— maybe surprisingly—compassion. But that may be because Taylor looks for the good in every situation. “I wasn’t D1 caliber, and I wanted to run in college. Running was as high a priority as being trans (although I didn’t know what I was then), it was that important to me. It still is.”

In 1991, there was no Internet, and few sources of information.

LGBQT? Nope, gay was about as nuanced as it got. So, like most young adults, Taylor embarked on a period of experimentation and discovery—in and out of counseling, on and off antidepressants, she had three long term relationships with women, she kissed some boys, tried on a super macho persona, joined a gay/lesbian group, went to drag festivals, wore makeup. Disgusted by her male body, she did everything she could to look more female—pierced her ears, shaved her legs, wore women’s jeans—but at the same time, she knew she didn’t want to be a man in a dress. She wanted to be a woman in a dress. She heard about sex change operations and thought that would be “awesome.” By her mid-twenties, Taylor told close friends she wanted to be female, to have a woman’s body.

“When I lived alone, I covered the mirror with a blanket or sheet so I wouldn’t have to look at myself.”

Taylor ran track and cross country at St. Thomas, took some years off from running after that, and in her mid-twenties, joined Run N Fun’s Tuesday night group, and eventually their competitive men’s team. As always, running was a respite, and the camaraderie of the running community, a saving grace. If her gender identity was a source of anxiety and anguish, her identity as a runner, and the joy of training and competing, remained rock solid. And therein lay the problem—would trying to solve suffering on one front risk the one sure thing, the relationships and community that had been her foundation thus far?

“I was terrified of the social stigma, that people wouldn’t like me. I didn’t think my family would disown me, but I’m not an isolated individual—I’m part of a community. If I transitioned, it would have a ripple effect, and I didn’t want to do that to the community. I thought I could just live with it.”

Things started to go seriously south in 2014. “I thought, I can’t live another day as a man. I was lonely, but felt I couldn’t be in a relationship

IDENTITY

It was patellar tendinitis that stopped Andie Taylor from training for a marathon. She took the injury as a sign and joined a trans counseling group as she weighed transitioning. when I wasn’t the right sex, the right body. I’d been wearing makeup for 15 years but was like, I look like a man in makeup—that’s awful!”

Taylor attempted suicide in 2016. At the beginning of 2017, she started thinking seriously of transitioning but there were still some obstacles—the expense, the effect on family and friends, and not least, the effect on her running. She was in the best shape of her life and training for December’s Cal International Marathon was going well. If she started hormone treatment, she’d slow down. Then patellar tendinitis developed, the marathon was not going to happen. Taylor took it as a sign.

16

SUMMER 2019

She joined a trans counseling group in October 2017, and started hormone therapy on March 11, 2018—testosterone blockers and 6mg a day of estradiol. For perspective, a normal dose of estradiol for birth control is 1mg per day, six times less than Taylor takes. With higher dosages come higher risks—high blood pressure, heart attack, stroke, and of course, sterility. The testosterone blocker makes potassium rise leading to increased risk of muscle cramps and heart arrhythmia. Then, there are the desired effects—breast growth, decreased muscle mass, softening of skin and hair, decrease in size of genitalia and erectile dysfunction, which Taylor said, “is a beautiful thing.”

Some things, like meds and part of gender reassignment surgery (constructing a vagina), are covered by insurance, but some, like the $50,000 facial feminization surgery Taylor will have this August, are not.

Taylor was injured and hadn’t run for five months when she started transitioning, so whether it was lack of fitness, hormones, or simply being 45 years old, those first runs in April 2018 were eye opening.

“I worked up to four miles at 8:30 pace and was absolutely wiped out. It was clear, running was going to be the hardest part about transitioning. Two years ago, I did a 20 mile run at 7-minute pace; now that’s my tempo pace.

That’s hard. I’m still a competitive person.

Which is another thing—I struggle with competing as a woman. I want to run hard, but I don’t want to cause controversy, or take anything away from those who were born female. ” While science can’t prove unequivocally that trans female athletes have no lingering testosterone advantage, USATF and IAAF guidelines call for 12 months of hormone therapy and testosterone levels below 5nmol/L. Taylor has had, at this writing, 15 months of hormone therapy, and her testosterone levels, monitored regularly by her doctor, are on the low end of normal for women. Her experiences too have been consistent with the data that informed the IAAF rules—her performances as a man ranged from 80 percent to 87 percent age graded, and since transitioning have been about the same, age-graded at 81 percent to 84 percent. Her mile time fell from 5:01 in 2017 to 5:37 in 2019, slower by about 12 percent, which is the average difference between elite male and female performances. What all that says is that Andie Taylor is about as good a runner as Andrew Taylor.

What those stats can’t describe is the joy of finally being in the right body. Taylor proudly showed me her new driver’s license—Andrea Taylor, female. “I’m so elated, just on cloud nine! I wish I had done this earlier. I didn’t know I would be so accepted. My friends and family have been so supportive. It’s so cool when people I don’t know refer to me as she.”

Taylor placed third in the women’s 40-49 age group at Brian Kraft 5K, in 19:26—about what she’d predicted, based on her training. It was a cool, rainy day, and she was in her element, amongst her people—runners—laughing, sharing post race stories. Almost like a new person. It was strange, Taylor admitted, being a person with 46 years of life experience, and at the same time, being completely new to femaleness.

MEMORIAL

REMEMBERING GABE

BY CHAD AUSTIN

B

y now Gabe Grunewald’s story is very well known so I don’t want

to rewrite what has already appeared in print, online or on TV. Instead, I want to share my story about the first time I met her. I’ve only been around Gabe twice, but really, once was enough to realize that she was an incredibly special person who did everything “all-in” while still maintaining an amazing love of life.

In the fall of 2015 I messaged her to see if she had any interest in speaking to about 200 cross country runners ranging in age from 6 to 14 years old. I mentioned the time and date and she replied, “I think that sounds like fun and would work for me!” I’ve been fortunate enough to have other guest speakers at this meet over the years. Gabe’s speech wasn’t as polished as Heather Kampf’s, who does lots of speaking engagements, and she didn’t have “Olympian” in front of her name like Carrie Tollefson. However, right away it was very apparent that the kids were drawn to her enthusiasm for running, her message, and most of all, her spirit.

After speaking for 15 minutes, Gabe opened it up for questions and a line quickly began to form. As you can imagine from an audience of this age, the questions came fast and furious, and the topics were all over the board. Many of the same questions were asked two or three times, just in slightly different ways, but that didn’t bother Gabe. She just smiled and rephrased her previous answer. After 15 more minutes of this I felt guilty about having to stop the Q&A. But the sun was starting to set and I wanted to give the kids (and parents) a chance to get their photo taken before the night was over. Again, Gabe was incredibly gracious and continued to flash her beautiful smile time and time again. After Gabe died, my friend BJ posted a picture of his daughter Hadley with her hero from this very night. The caption said, “You’ll never know the impact you had and all the lives you touched. This one especially.”

At the time Gabe was only 28 and had already defeated cancer twice.

She would go on to defeat it a third time before finally succumbing on June 11, 2019, at age 32. As I saw on Twitter, “Cancer didn’t defeat Gabe. Cancer had to come back four times. That’s not winning.” No, it’s not winning – especially when you consider how Gabe handled herself in the 10 years since cancer first appeared at the end of her senior year of college. Not only was she more positive than nearly everyone I know, she continued to train and race at an elite level – scheduling her workouts and races around her treatment. When she wasn’t doing that she was busy building up her bravelikegabe.org foundation. What started as a simple hashtag to support Gabe has evolved into a foundation that has already raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for cancer research. And it’s not done yet. This foundation, and her legacy, will live on forever.

When it comes to sorting through this difficult time, I think Kampf said it best, “Why does this feel like such a shock…when we’ve known for so long that this is the natural course for a rare, incurable cancer? It’s because we’re not thinking about the cancer. We’re thinking about Gabe.

Vital. Vibrant. The contagiously hopeful fighter.”

Gabe Grunewald spoke to a group of 200 cross country runners ages 6 to 14 for the author and posed for this photo afterward.

And we will continue to think about Gabe; CAPTIVATING, WILD, ENERGETIC, POSITIVE, GRITTY, GRACEFUL, FIERCE, BOLD, and indeed, BRAVE! SUMMER 2019

BOOKS

‘Inside a Marathon’

BY CHAD AUSTIN

T

wo of my favorite activities are

reading and running. Imagine what happens when I read about running.

[Insert mind blown emoji here.] I’ve definitely read more than my fair share of running books over the years. There have been training manuals, biographies and fictional stories, as well as books on nutrition, meditation and mental toughness. I’ve read books about running history, philosophy, and anatomy and physiology. At a minimum I think I’ve earned a Bachelor’s degree in running.

Just when I think I’ve seen every type of book imaginable about running, a new approach on the topic appears. Enter Inside a Marathon: An All-Access Pass to a Top-10 Finish at NYC by Scott Fauble and Ben Rosario. The book is part biographical, part storytelling, part training manual and journal and part coach-athlete interaction. As the title states, it’s an inside look at a marathon, not the marathon. It’s not a how to account for running your best marathon.

It’s a look back at Fauble’s 18 week build-up to the 2018 NYC Marathon including insights from Coach Rosario.

Fauble and Rosario are part of Northern Arizona Elite (NAZ Elite), arguably the most successful elite training group in the U.S. at this time. Not only has the group been busy winning national titles, but they’re also setting the bar when it comes to social media and promoting not only themselves, but also their entire training group. They obviously have a firm grasp that in this social media era, companies are looking for athletes with a platform that are willing to create and engage with an audience – rather than just run fast while wearing their shoes and apparel. This book is just another example of creating a platform to engage with their audience.

Prior to writing this book, Fauble had completed just one marathon running 2:12:35 at the 2017 Frankfurt Marathon. That’s a respectable time for sure; however, I think it’s safe to say that Scott Fauble wasn’t a household name after that race. Yet he had enough confidence in his abilities, both running and writing, to approach Rosario with his idea for this book.

He states that he wrote the book because he “would have absolutely devoured something

18

SUMMER 2019

The new book “inside a marathon” includes a foreword by des linden. like this if someone else had done it… there’s never been a non-fiction, first person account of the training segment leading up to a major race like the New York City Marathon.”

What makes this book so interesting for me is that each week of this 18 week training cycle is written as its own chapter, complete with Fauble’s training log, along with Rosario’s and Fauble’s recap of the week where they write about the highs and lows, aches and pains, what they’re trying to accomplish with specific workouts, lead up races, etc. One of the cool things about this approach is that neither Ben nor Scott knew what the other was writing. They completed their weekly recaps separately and submitted them to Rosario’s wife, Jen, who

compiled them throughout the process. She also took nearly 200 beautiful photos that really enhance the book.

While it’s really cool to see the specifics of an elite runner’s training log, the truth is that the vast majority of us will never be able to replicate it. However, no matter how fast we are, we all go through similar physical and mental challenges. This insight from Coach Rosario reminds me that we may be doing things right, even when it doesn’t feel right; “He just needed to get used to feeling sort of semi-tired all the time again. In other words, he needed to embrace marathon training… he’s used to having some pop in his legs at the start of a workout. It’s not going to be like that during

BOOKS marathon training. In fact, he may often feel better toward the end of a workout then at the beginning. And that’s what we want.”

As runners, especially marathoners, it’s easy for us to get transfixed solely on the goal – whether that’s to finish the race, run a personal record or qualify for Boston. While it’s great to have goals like these, the best athletes are successful because they learn to love the process, as Fauble explains, “I’ve had to work harder to balance my desire for the final product, with the knowledge that all I can control is what I do now. On one hand, the long-term goal is a powerful motivator. It gets me to do things that I otherwise wouldn’t want to, like foam rolling, and hip mobility, and core work, all the things that I need to do in order to be at my very best on race day. On the other hand, I know that I can’t force it. The final product will only come from doing as well as I can in the current moment, which leaves me in a state of cognitive dissonance. I simultaneously wildly crave the ability to cross the finish line… and am deeply committed to being present and engaged in the process.”

As you might imagine from the athlete’s point of view, writing a recap of each week of

your training – and making it interesting to readers – can be a difficult task. However, Fauble was continuously able to provide just the right mix of explaining each week’s key workouts, giving a glimpse into the mental state of an elite runner, while also allowing us to get to know him better on a personal level. Here he describes his thoughts on pain management, “The pain came almost immediately and I let it in. I don’t try to block out the pain in hard workouts or races anymore, if you want to be in charge of the hurt, you have to let it in. That’s the key to being able to endure a lot of pain, it’s to know it intimately. The discomfort is coming along for the ride, but it doesn’t get to drive and it sure as shit can’t pick the music.”

If you’ve been running long enough, you know that each training cycle is different.

Sometimes they don’t go very well, but other times everything seems to click. Towards the end of this particular training cycle Fauble shares the following thoughts and it becomes clear that he’s about to have a great race at the NYC Marathon. “When you’re checking all the boxes and surprising even yourself in workouts, excellence starts to feel like the only acceptable option. And excellence is hard…

It’s scary to redefine what excellence means to you, to push your expectations toward better and better performances. But, after the week like I just had, and the way I felt during it, it would be disingenuous to say that I am capable of anything less. It’s not time to hedge our bets or settle, we’re all in now.” As the subtitle, An All-Access Pass to a Top-10 Finish at NYC, tells us, Fauble did have a great race finishing in seventh place with a time of 2:12:28. Then he had another top 10 finish at the Boston Marathon in April, running a breakthrough time of 2:09:09. While he still may not be a household name, these two performances have made him a leading contender for the 2020 Olympic marathon team.

Again, I’ve read a lot of running books over the years and this one has quickly moved into my top five. While the look into an elite training log was interesting, I found the side by side insights into marathon training provided by both coach and athlete much more compelling.

I think there are plenty of pearls of wisdom throughout the book to make it worth your time.

SUMMER 2019

In 1991, in the early years of the Superior Hiking Trail, 48 runners set off on the inaugural 100 mile Superior Fall Trail Race to showcase the new trail. Only 27 completed the grueling race but the ultrarunning community appeared to be hooked. Superior Fall is now considered a “legacy” 100 miler, known for being “rugged, relentless and remote” (qualities that appear to attract, not deter, ultrarunners). If you’ve ever hiked a portion of the 310 mile hilly single track, you’ll understand why.

“It’s more than a race; it is an immersive experience, a community, a culture and a lifestyle,” says race director John Storkamp. The

races also benefit the trail financially, donating about $3,000 to the trail association each year, in addition to driving volunteer hours and more calls for individual donations.

Bonus: You no longer need to be an ultrarunner to participate: a 50 mile and marathon have been added.

THE COURSE: All three distances are point to point races, finishing at Caribou Highlands Lodge. From the finish, you’ll be bused to your start: Gooseberry Falls State Park for the 100 mile, Finland, Minn. for the 50 mile and Schroeder, Minn., for the marathon.

THE PARTICIPANTS: A lottery held in January attracts ultrarunners from around the world.

The 100 mile is limited to 285 participants (about 200 usually finish), the 50 mile has room for 200 and the marathon hosts 425 runners.

COURSE RECORDS: Three course records were set in 2018.

100 MILE Neal Collick – 18:56:02, 2018 Mallory Richard – 22:36:39, 2018 50 MILE: Michael Borst – 8:38:01, 2016 Christi Nowak – 10:03:54, 2011 26.2 MILE: Wynn Davis – 3:31:26, 2009 Emma Spoon – 4:07:40, 2018 THE ORGANIZERS: John and Cheri Storkamp of Rocksteady Running, a collective of longtime trail and ultrarunners who organize a handful of trail races in Minnesota. John’s favorite part of the job? “Getting to facilitate a meaningful,

often times transcendental experiences for our runners,” he says.

VOLUNTEERS: From the early days of the race, the organizers understood that volunteers would be as important as competitors. Most of the over 300 volunteers are experienced local trail runners; they’re joined by a few dozen volunteers who come in from farther away than Minnesota and Wisconsin.

BEYOND THE RACE: The Lake County 4H hosts a pasta dinner during packet pickup at the Lake County Fairgrounds, Two Harbors, the night before the 100 mile race.

SWAG: The most coveted item is probably the sweatshirt, given to first time 100 mile finishers. One hundred mile finishers also get a belt buckle. Repeat finishers earn an orange star patch. Everyone gets a tshirt (trust us, it’s unlike any other race shirt in your collection) and a handmade wooden medallion.

there are almost 200 trail 100 milers. In the early years, there were two mandatory weighins, hoping to ensure runners weren’t becoming dehydrated (though some ultras maintain the practice, evidence doesn’t support that weigh-ins work).

WANT TO GO? READ THIS: *You must qualify for the 100 and 50 mile races. You’ll need to complete a race of at least 50 miles to qualify for the 100, and a 50K to qualify for the 50 mile. *You must be lucky. Lottery registration typically opens on January 1 for 15 days. The list of registered runners is posted within 10 days of the drawing. *Lodging options include Lutsen’s Caribou Highlands Lodge, other Lutsen properties or camping in nearby parks and campgrounds. *Entry fees are $265 for the 100 mile, $150 for the 50 mile and $110 for the 26.2 mile.
