Senior Editor:
Dear RunMinnesota Readers, Grandma’s Marathon narrowly averted the strong possibility of cancellation this year. Just three days after June 16, the day of the marathon, Duluth and the northeastern portion of the state experienced torrential rainfall and flash flooding. The National Weather Service reported that Duluth, Minnesota, experienced the highest two day rainfall ever on June 19 and 20, and second wettest calendar day on June 19, when flood producing storms deluged northeast Minnesota. Portions of Old Highway 61 and areas downtown, where the race is run, were washed out or severely flooded. The race would not have logistically been able to take place because of resulting closures and conditions, but fortunately this was not the case. So, all were treated to another great weekend of running. That the race was run was particularly fortunate this year as Grandma’s hosted the U.S. Half Marathon Championship. You’ll want to read Alex Kurt’s article for race weekend highlights and results. Reid Plumbo, a relatively new runner, tells an engaging story about his inspiration for, training for and running the Ice Age Trail 50K. Despite the fact that Reid had run only two marathons prior to this, he chose his third long race to be an ultramarathon. Talk about jumping in feet first. Fortunately, he used the MDRA marathon program as a base, with a bit of tweaking, which certainly was instrumental to his success at the race. Candy Patrin takes a nostalgic look back over the last 40 plus years of running in, “Back then: when ribbons told the story.” Particularly interesting is the evolution of race awards and race tshirts. As much as I am a huge fan of studying and learning the history of running, I never knew that runners received their finishing times on Popsicle sticks and index cards. Now that the running season is in full swing, you can glean some important and relevant information in Joe Uhan’s “Stop the bonk.” Bonking is the term he uses to articulate the process of the body breaking down, cramping, nausea, dead legs and generally slowing down to what he calls “The Shuffle.” First informing the reader of how and why the body is breaking down, he then offers several useful solutions to help fix such problems.

Now, lest you are thinking the race season has drawn to a close, there are plenty more quality MDRA and other races left to run. Some of these are listed in News and Notes in this issue. I think I may just get out there and run some of them myself. So lace up your shoes, and maybe I’ll see you out while training on Calhoun. I hope you enjoyed reading this issue, and I look forward to hearing from you. Please let me know what you liked, what you didn’t and what you’d like to see in future issues.

FROM YOU Dear RunMinnesota, I really appreciated your highlighting this year’s Mud Ball with the excellent cover photo of the women’s winner, Kaelyn Williams. However, Ms. Williams’ spotless appearance gives one the impression that she had just finished a run on the Metro Dome’s faux turf. A race such as the Mud Ball to be run under what would appear to be nearly antiseptic conditions, hardly lives up to its grimy 40 year history. We started this race back in the early 70s to replicate the cross country running as done in Europe and the UK, not the moronic slime fests that we see touted today, replete with live electric wires and belly crawling through mud under barbed wire. All this said, I still find an immense satisfaction seeing so many of the original MDRA races (Fred Kurz 10 mile, Hopkins 7 mile, Ron Daws 25K, to mention a few) still being run. Thanks, and keep up the great work.
Let us know what you think.
Sincerely, Pat Lanin

REMEMBRANCES Alex Ratelle, 1925-2012
Another Legend Passes the Torch BY KATHYRN BENHARDUS And now, at age 87, Alex Ratelle is gone. It’s hard to imagine that someone so possessed of the fires of life could have slipped away. His life story is a tale of grit, determination and an inner strength that did not shirk from hard effort. How much courage does it take to fly 60 missions as a navigator on an Army Air Corps B-17 during World War II? What does it take to survive crash landings and go back up to do it again? Most of us will never experience those life and death moments, but Alex did. And perhaps it was those experiences that gave Alex Ratelle the drive to excel in running as well. Born in International Falls, Minnesota, Alex ran track at Washburn High School in Minneapolis, but didn’t return to running until his 40s. He was a graduate of the University of Minnesota Medical School in 1951 and founded the anesthesiology department at Methodist Hospital, where he practiced for 38 years. These ordinary facts do not begin to evoke the fire that he brought to the sport of running. Those who knew him well, people like Scott Keenan, race director of Grandma’s Marathon, Alan Page of Vikings fame and long time runner Tim O’Brien, describe him with words like relentless, incredible, amazing and obsessed. He gave to running a single mindedness that resulted in greatness. Tim recounted the 1981 Grandma’s Marathon, where he finished just behind Lorraine Moeller, who set a women’s course record of 2:29 that stood for over 15 years. Then came O’Brien, age 28, with a 2:30:30. Behind him was Alex Ratelle, age 56, running a 2:30:40, an age group course record that still stands today. In all, Alex ran 161 marathons, and an uncountable number of shorter races. He dominated his age group so thoroughly that his opponents had to pick other races or resign themselves to second. The Minnesota Running Data Center still lists him as the all time record holder in the 50s and 60s age groups in a multitude of distances. He also founded a charitable 5K known as Nana’s Run, which was contested throughout the 90s and always drew the best of the elite. Alex will be missed by his loving wife, Patricia, his children and grandchildren, but he will also be missed by the Minnesota running community. He taught us how to live and how to run the good race. As Tim O’Brien said, “RIP…Run in Peace.”

Popular Half Marathon Returns to Stillwater The Jon Francis Half-Marathon will return in 2012, under the management of the Jon Francis Foundation and UpTempo Race Management. The 2010 race attracted over 900 runners the last time it ran alongside the Stillwater Marathon. The Jon Francis Foundation (JFF) was created in 2007, after a life changing, personal tragedy in the wilderness. The foundation’s work honors the memory of an amazing young man, Jon Francis, who
touched and inspired others. Jon was a Bible Camp Counselor in Idaho, a youth minister in Utah, a mountain climber and a remarkable athlete and human being. The 13.1 mile course, which is USATF sanctioned, will follow a beautiful and somewhat challenging route on rolling hills and rural roads past lakes, farms, forest and open fields. The half marathon course was chosen, not only for its beauty, but also because these are the roads that Jon Francis ran for 10 years while training for high school and college cross country competition. A shorter 8K race will circle Square Lake. In addition, there will be a family friendly fun run. This is a nonprofit charity event. The Jon Francis Foundation is dedicated to saving lives through wilderness safety education, empowering families who have suffered the loss of a loved one in the wilderness and advocating for legal protection for missing adults at www.jonfrancis.org. Jon was raised in Stillwater, Minnesota, where he was a three sport athlete, a four time state champion, a national champion runner and team captain at Stillwater High School. After college Jon moved to Ogden, Utah, to serve as Director of Youth Ministry at Ascension Lutheran Church. He was on his way to seminary to pursue ordination. Tragically, Jon never completed his journey. At age 24, Jon Francis died in a mountain climbing accident in the rugged Sawtooth Mountains in Central, Idaho, on July 15, 2006. Awards and prizes will be presented to top finishers in all men’s and woman’s age groups. It takes a village to raise an amazing child and to organize an exceptional event. Runners, volunteers and sponsors will be greatly appreciated and rewarded.

REMEMBER WHEN
When Ribbons Told the Story Give-aways a microcosm of the changes in running events BY CANDY PATRIN
R
unning competitions have come a long way since the first running boom in the 1970s. Sometimes it is hard to figure out whether all of the changes in the past 40 plus years have been for the better, a topic that probably gets people talking during group runs. In reality, a lot of runners judge a race by their time. You rarely hear someone say, “Oh my time was lousy, but I love the medal or the t-shirt.” For newer runners, t-shirts and medals have always been a part of the race scene. Their running memories do not go back to the days when runners received their finishing times on Popsicle sticks, index cards or ribbons indicating the overall place. “Back then” there was typically an open, and maybe, in the larger events, a senior division for over age 40 runners. There were no age groups typical of races today. You were either one of the top runners or a finisher. There were also fewer runners in the race, so you might finish twelfth overall and in last place. No one back then displayed a heavy medal hanging from a ribbon around their neck. There was no competition between races for the most original or memorable medal or articles about the top marathon finisher medals, such as
7
the one in the May/June issue of Marathon Guide. Many of the top 25 medals mentioned in the Marathon Guide article picture something about the race location or form a unique shape such as a surfboard, a space ship or a bottle opener. One wonders if these current day medals could at some point be confiscated by airport security as being deemed potentially dangerous. Of course, no one back then thought much about how they were going to display or store all of their awards. If you were an avid runner/collector who wanted to keep your race awards organized somewhere, all you really needed was a container about the size of a shoebox. MDRA member and runner, turned race walker, Bob Stumm, of St. Paul, Minnesota, keeps his 116 multi-colored ribbon collection in an old shoebox. Stumm’s collection tells the story of his running career that happens to coincide with the main ribbon award era. Stumm can easily take you through his running history as he fingers through the shoebox, pulls out a ribbon and casually gives some commentary on a particular competition. Stumm began running in the fall of 1971, after being a track and field spectator during his school years. Aerobics, a book written by
JULY/AUGUST 2012
Kenneth H. Cooper, was the catalyst for Stumm to start running. Once he could run two to three miles, Stumm saw a notice in the newspaper about a two mile race in New Hope, Minnesota, and decided to try it. In 1987, Stumm switched from running to race walking, which is his choice of competition today. The ribbon collection mainly spans a timeline of November 1972 until 1983 and represents 45 races that took place in 37 different towns. Roughly a dozen of the ribbons are race awards, while the rest of Stumm’s collection is for participation, ala the t-shirts handed out today. Within his collection, there are seven ribbons from the four mile Goose Chase run in Rochester, Minnesota. In the 1970s, when geese within Rochester’s city limits were a bit of a novelty, the runners often brought food for them. The Goose Chase was part of an informal circuit of races, which included a couple of races in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, as well as events such as the Hopkins Raspberry Race. Stumm’s ribbon collection includes the Skyline Parkway five mile in Duluth, Minnesota, the Excelsior Firecracker race, the Anoka Halloween race and the Como Relays, to name a few. The race organizers were often
running clubs, local businesses or small towns, as part of a local festival. Some ribbons display only the name of the running club that sponsored the event with a small card on the back to add in race specific information, e.g., name, date, time and place. Other ribbons indicate the runner’s finishing place. “Many of these races were ad hoc affairs,” recalls Stumm. Among Stumm’s collection are a few races with a “shtick.” The Lake-Land Striders from Byron, Minnesota, put on a seven mile predict-your-time race. In April 1979, Stumm did the Smelt Run, a six mile race off of Highway 61 near Duluth, Minnesota. He remembers the race, an out-andback route. The three miles out were tough and into the wind. After he had earned 50 ribbons, Stumm decided on a goal of 100. He began to look for races that
specifically handed out ribbons as awards. However, somewhere during his ribbon odyssey, Stumm lost track of the ribbon count. “It occurred as I morphed into a race walker. There got to be a point where I forgot about this 100 goal, and then I surpassed it. It was no longer something that I was reaching for,” says Stumm. As Stumm looks at his ribbon collection, he cannot help but remember some other major differences between the races back then and now. You have to look hard today to find races that hand out ribbons, although there still are a few to be found. There is something that links the running years together. Back then, and now, the most memorable part of a race that gets talked about by most runners is their time. And maybe the weather.
When a ribbon was enough... • Most of the races attracted less than 100 runners and were primarily hosted by track clubs. • There were not many female runners, and even fewer, if any, s atellite toilets. • Friends or relatives, who came to watch their favorite runner, were easily recruited as instant volunteers. • The start times were typically late morning or early afternoon to give runners from across the state time to get to the race. • For the majority of races, there were no road closures or security support along the route, which meant that many routes went through parks or around a lake. • And, the registration fees were in the $1.00 to $2.00 range.

Stop the Bonk Strategies to avoid dreaded, helpless shuffling late in races BY JOE UHAN with forward by Chad Austin
I don’t claim to be a coach or physiologist. Most everything I write for the pages of RunMinnesota are based upon my own personal experiences. Last year, I wrote an article about bonking during a marathon, saying, “Once a bonk arrives, it can be a miserable shuffle the rest of the way. The only thing we can do is watch the mile splits get slower and slower.” Even though I typically take three to four gels per marathon, while pacing myself according to my training, I’ve found myself having to deal with bonking from time to time. And by “dealing with,” I mean watching my splits get slower and slower. An ultra marathoning buddy of mine, Joe Uhan, who has degrees in Chemistry, Kinesiology and Physical Therapy, read that article and said that I was wrong. He wrote a great rebuttal on his blog, stating the things we can do to overcome The Bonk, rather than just taking a passive approach. He’s agreed to share his thoughts here, so that we can incorporate his ideas into our summer training plans as we prepare for fall marathons. - Chad Austin
Although it’s only July, the fall marathon season is on the horizon. This is a wonderful time of year as the air cools, the leaves turn colors and we get to see the fruits of our summer labor: the scores of miles, tempo runs, intervals and weekend long runs, by throwing down at our favorite fall marathon. The marathon can be a crap shoot, or as I used to call it, a spin of the roulette wheel. You put all your money on one number, a singular road marathon, and you spin the wheel, hoping that fitness, health and rest and race day conditions all come together to produce a PR.
9
So it’s a bummer that, when all those things come together, that the wheels come flying off, almost predictably, 30K into the race: cramping, dead-legs, slow-down. The Bonk. Bonks are not random. Cramps are not random. Neither is a precipitous slow-down only minutes after “feeling fine.” This is your body telling you something is wrong. And when they come, you’re not powerless; you need to do something about it. Ultra runners have learned the lessons as a matter of survival. But these same lessons can, and should, be applied to the road guys to ensure a consistent performance.
JULY/AUGUST 2012
The Bonk can result from four different reasons:
Problem #1: Mechanical breakdown. The fatigue of a marathon effort can cause mid-race mechanics to deteriorate. A common result is cramping with the calves and hamstrings being common culprits. Solution: Be mindful of your mechanics, both during long runs and late in the race. If cramping (or the “pre-cramp blips”) begins, adjust your mechanics: stride out more, drive your hips or lift your knees a bit more to alleviate. Though difficult, a slight adjustment in mechanics can stave off cramp issues almost immediately. Practice these adjustments in your long runs and be aware of your “habits” when you fatigue.
Problem #2: Burning up glycogen. We train, both easy and hard, in a physiological sense, to make our bodies more efficient at energy use. We teach it to use fat as much as possible, and to build up glycogen stores in muscles and liver tissue. The key is to budget glycogen for the duration of a
marathon. Going out too hard can blow through your glycogen stores prematurely. Solution: Supplement early and often with additional sugars. For glycogen, you can’t truly restore it: once it’s gone, it’s gone. Supplemental energy sources can help, especially starting early with a regiment of gels that the body can use concurrently with glycogen. A true glycogen bonk is far more rare than people would have you believe; you train for fitness, you train for pace. If you blow glycogen, you’ll blow it in a big way by going out too hard at a pace you can’t sustain. A true glycogen bonk is exceedingly rare for the smart, well-prepared marathoner.
Problem #3: Dehydration. You lose a ton of water in a marathon, no matter the temperature. Moreover, for the fall marathon, you tend to lose even more and notice it less. The lower humidity saps the moisture from your body and, as you’re no longer drenched in August humidity, you tend to notice it less. The body requires water for muscle function and sugar break-
down. No water, no fuel, no muscle contraction. Solution: Take some fluids…but not too much. Elites have the luxury of “bottle service,” where they get to pick up their own bottle of chosen fluids at several points in the race. In ultramarathons, runners carry their own bottle and take in a bottle an hour or about 12 to 16 ounces of fluid. How much are you getting during your marathon? None? Or maybe too much? In his new book, “Waterlogged,” running sports medicine guru Tim Noakes addresses the dangers of overhydration in distance running. He recommends a maximum of 250 to 400 milliliters (eight to 12 ounces) per hour of fluid in endurances races, even in the hottest conditions. Any more and you risk hyponatremia, which is a danger-
ous and sometimes lethal condition of too much fluid in the system. Symptoms of hyponatremia, which include dizziness, nausea and vomiting, can mirror those of “The Bonk.” Be very careful not to over-drink, especially if race day conditions are mild and your pace is slower. If you feel these symptoms in absence of thirst, stop drinking. This includes electrolyte drinks, such as Gatorade. Perhaps the most important job of in-race fluids is to process your in-race sugars. I recommend one small cup of fluid (four to six ounces) after each gel to help process that vital fuel.
Problem #4: Electrolyte deficiency. This is, in my opinion, the number one reason for the nasty bonk: cramping, nausea and The Shuffle. Your body primarily requires
sodium and potassium for muscle contraction. Nerves and muscles fire via cascading movement of sodium in and out. These firings are recharged with potassium. However, the body must also cool itself. With perspiration goes the salt. Cramping is not normal in endurance events. Again, you train for duration, you train for pace. Do you cramp in workouts? Not normally. Precipitous drop-offs in pace, say anything exceeding 20 to 30 seconds per mile for a four hour marathoner, at the end of a marathon is not normal. Solution: Supplemental salt. This is anecdotal from ultra runners and from me, but I believe everyone would benefit from 500 to 1000 milligrams of supplemental sodium during a marathon, above and beyond
what is provided in conventional sports drink and fuels. Again, it is widely accepted during ultra races that the ideal supplementation of electrolytes is 100 to 400 milligrams of sodium or broad spectrum electrolytes per hour for events lasting over four hours. For the ultra runner, this can come from a variety of sources: fluid mixtures, salt capsules or “real food” at aid stations laden with salty food like chips, potatoes, broth, etc. For marathoners, you could carry something as simple as one or two salt tablets in a baggie. Pop one in your mouth (with or without water) in the second half of a marathon, and The Bonk, the slowdown, the cramps, the dead-legs, could be gone within seconds.
Common Questions I can’t handle eating or drinking anything in a race. How am I going to take that stuff? You train for the distance, the pace, the shoes, the clothing, etc. And you need to train to fuel. Train to carry the least amount of supplies necessary to maximize performance. Train to take fuel, whether its gels, blocks or “real food,” and train how to carry it. Carry salt tablets in tiny zip-lock bags. Put them in your pocket or staple them to your singlet. Do whatever it takes. Train to drink. Practice drinking from a cup while moving, and then practice drinking while moving at your goal marathon pace. Carry supplemental salt. Here are some terrific options: • Succeed! S-caps. These are the gold standard for ultra runners. Packed with more than 300 milligrams of sodium, they’re the quick fix salt boost that ultra runners consume. Just one of these tabs has the potential to reverse the nastiest bonk within seconds. • Hammer Endurolytes (“E” caps) capsules. This capsule is a more conservative, broad-spectrum supplement that contains only 40 milligrams of sodium, but also contains potassium, magnesium and calcium, which are also essential electrolytes for performance. • Clif-Blok Margarita flavor gel blocks. These tend to be the best of both worlds: a fuel and salt multi-tasker. They’re useful because you don’t have to worry about carrying extra supplies. However, if you want fuel or salt only, you’re out of luck with these. I like to carry one sleeve of these during a marathon. All of these contain salt above and beyond conventional gels. They’re to be used sparingly, perhaps two or three times over the course of a race or when you get into trouble.
How do I know what or how much to take? Trial. Practice. Train. Try everything in training before you race with it. Simply go out on a long run and bring one of the above products. As you start to bonk, or even just feel bad, wait a few miles and then take your supplement. Ideally, you want to do this with little or no stopping. Now your job is to monitor how your stomach and legs react. For most, just the slightest bit of salt can feel like a B12 shot. Within seconds you’ll be saying, “I’m back, baby!” Experiment, learn and train. We train extremely hard for many months, if not years, to reach our marathon goals. Don’t let The Bonk blow all that work, when all it may take is a mere half gram of salt. We have a saying amongst our ultra group: “Solve your problems!” This applies to marathoners as well. When The Bonk comes, be prepared to do something about it.

ON THE TRAILS
Ice Age Trail 50K MDRA Member tells the tale of his first trail 50K BY REID PLUMBO

JULY/AUGUST 2012
’ll do it, if you do it.” These are the words that put me on my path to running my first 50K trail race. Interestingly enough, these are also the same words that swept me into my first marathon, which I ran in June 2011. It seems I am quite suggestible when it comes to racing. Anyway, I will celebrate my two year running anniversary in October of 2012, so the perspective offered in this article is that of someone very new to running with only two marathons under his belt. Whether it’s idealistic, or idiotic, to run a 50K as your third big race is left to the reader, but this should provide context as I tell this story. I’ve been training with MDRA since February of 2011 along with my friend and colleague, Alex Stephens. Through the MDRA Spring Marathon Training Group, the Fall Marathon Training Group and the Polar Bears, I’ve met a lot of wonderful people and avoided countless running disasters by learning from their vast experience (Body Glide, anyone?). Over the summer of 2011, as I was training for the Twin Cities Marathon, two things happened that set the Ice Age 50K in motion for me, both of which occurred in the same week. First, I read Born to Run. Now, pause. Even though
this should be the part where I talk about dumping my Asics for a pair of sandals, it’s not. I didn’t become a barefoot evangelist, but the part about running great distances did stick in my mind. Later that week, while running with MDRAer Marty Humphrey, I asked him about his ultramarathon experience, and he remarked, “Ultras are way easier than marathons. You just run [12 minute miles] all day.” Little did I know just how deep Marty’s running experience went, and that, what is easy for him may not be easy for all. However, his encouragement got me thinking, could I really run all day? Equilibrium is a concept that describes things that are in balance. If you were to fill a bathtub with an adjustable drain, you could find a point at which the amount of water coming into the tub was the same as the amount draining out. You could run the tub like this indefinitely and it would never overflow or become empty. Bringing this back to running, to me, it seemed that in order to run all day, I would need to find an analogous state: a new equilibrium where I could run indefinitely. Energy in (food) would need to equal energy out (running) and fluids in (water) would need to equal fluids
“For this road runner, the terrain was a major shock... I knew when I saw a hillside that had railroad ties on guard against avalanches that I was no longer in Kansas.”
out (sweat). Easy enough. Scientifically, of course, this is fantasy. One’s body cannot remain running indefinitely. For starters, you’ll need to do things, like sleep, which make this impossible. However, the idea is a powerful one, because it differentiates ultras from marathons. For elite athletes, they run to the absolute edge of their energy stores over the marathon distance, with a goal of crossing the finish line just before empty. Ultra runners drain their energy stores, too, but they must find some way to slow the rate at which they drain them. To do this they drink Coke, eat pizza, PB&Js, candy and chips along the run to replenish the proteins, fats and carbohydrates being consumed. The search for this new equilibrium, and the prospect of eating M&Ms while I ran, was intensely appealing and something a marathon didn’t offer. I think this, above all else, intrigued me the most about running this distance. On our next long run, I mentioned all this ultramarathon nonsense to Alex. Surprisingly, it was not flatly rejected. In fact, and as is usually the case, he was already way ahead of me on this. He was finishing a book about how to train for, and complete, ultramarathons of 50K or more titled Relentless Forward Progress. When he was finished with the book, he loaned it to me, and I finished it the next week. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is considering an ultra of any kind. Not because it’s the best, most complete resource on the subject, but because it makes ultras accessible to people who haven’t yet considered this distance. Knowing Alex and I were on the
same page, and that I’d have someone to commiserate with, I made the decision to run almost in that instant. I wonder if other runners do this: commit to a race in your head well before signing up, or telling anyone else you’ve committed. I did this with my first race and with the Ice Age 50K as well. As soon as I had the idea in my head, I absolutely knew I was running, but I think I made my wife and everyone else wait a month while I “considered” it. My wife claims she knew I would be running this from the first time I mentioned it to her. I claim I needed the time. One morning during a Polar Bear long run, I propositioned Alex thusly: “I’ll do it, if you do it.” He said “game on” or some such. And so, with Alex as a partner, I officially made the decision. The next weekend, we were at Caribou Coffee hammering out our training schedule. For training, we decided to shut out most advice from the Internet, books and magazines and focus solely on the guidance provided by MDRA members. This had a tremendous upside, because if we failed miserably, we knew squarely at whom to point the finger. Of course that would never be the case, because we knew we were in good hands having our schedule reviewed by veteran ultramarathoners and MDRA coaches, Kelly Tabara and Nathan Campeau. Our formula for the 50K race was fairly simple: use the MDRA marathon program as a base, but instead of doing three 20 milers, do one 20, one 22 and one 24 miler. We also did most of our weekly runs on trails, never skipped a Sunday recovery run and then added a serious “back-
to-back” on one weekend. A “back-to-back” is a long run on Saturday, followed by another on Sunday. In our case, Alex and I completed a 22 miler, followed by a 16 miler over Easter weekend. Looking back on that weekend, Alex said, “By the end of the 16 mile run, my body was pretty fatigued, but it helped me get used to running on really tired legs and gave me confidence I could struggle through on race day.” Keri Peterson, the third MDRAer in the Ice Age field, had a similar approach to training and said, “My training schedule had me run long miles both Saturday and Sunday to prepare my body for lots of time on my feet.” The last ingredient in our training plan was significant hill work that we did mostly at Murphy-Hanrehan Park Reserve in Savage, Minnesota. A particularly tortuous six and a half mile loop through Murphy offers around 1600 feet of vertical elevation. Two times around this loop guarantees a good hill workout, and doing this over many weekends greatly enhanced our preparedness for the Ice Age trail. Living in Savage, Alex was a frequent visitor at Murphy. Alex “ran at Murphy one to two times in the middle of the week, encompassing about 20 percent of [his] total training mileage on hilly trails.” One 80 degree Sunday afternoon, a 13 mile Murphy endeavor taught Alex and I an important lesson about pace and terrain. At this point, we were weeks into our training schedule and feeling a bit overconfident, so we set out trying to kill this loop and prove how tough we were. We ran up every hill at marathon pace and at the end of the first time around, we were both feeling sluggish and tired. As we started the second loop, we quickly realized that our top speed approach to these hills was not sustainable. Less than halfway through, we were reduced to walking up even the smallest grades and many flats as well. We continued this way, dead on
our feet, until we completed the second loop nearly 90 minutes after we began. By trying to keep our marathon pace and running up these hills, we were completely ignoring everything we’d read and everything we’d been told about running trail ultras: you must walk up the hills. Walking up hills is commonplace in the ultra community, but being newcomers to the sport, we ignored the advice and were subsequently forced to a slow, labored walk. Both Alex and I independently look back on this experience as the most valuable to us in all the training, because it taught us about hills, pace and grit: the unwillingness to accept defeat no matter what. We ran over 700 miles preparing for this race, and our best training was getting destroyed by one 13 mile run. Keri Peterson had a similar encounter with grit. Keri recalled, “One very cold Saturday morning [in January 2012], my water froze up well into an 18 mile run. I knew this was hard core, and I was building my mental toughness, and I was loving every minute.” While Keri was empowered by her encounter with grit immediately, neither Alex or I learned the value of this day until after crossing the finish line. Alex, Keri and I each dealt with injury at one point or another during the course of the training. For me personally, this taught me yet another lesson about grit (there’s a theme here). As I peaked around 60 miles per week, I began to have pain along my right kneecap. I could run through it, but it didn’t feel right. I had to make a very difficult decision to skip four days of training, which included my final long run of 24 miles. I was devastated. Everything I had worked for over the last four months seemed to be in jeopardy, and I was in panic mode. Anyone who’s trained for a race knows how much emotional and physical investment goes into it. To have all that work, and all that effort threatened by injury was spiritually debilitating. The first person I turned to in

this case was, of course, Alex. He has a way of laying things out very logically with a dose of pragmatism that keeps me grounded. I sent him a few frantic text messages, and at the end of the exchange, he replied, “You could not run from now to the start [of the race], and you’d be fine physically. It’s your stupid brain. We’ll power through.” Well said, Alex. I instantly felt better with this little bit of external validation. In my panic, I also reached out for advice to coach Kelly Tabara, who offered a very grounding, long term perspective. She encouraged me to relax, review my mileage log and assured me the miles were in the bank. I anxiously took the time I needed, saw the doctor, rested up and returned to training. Ultimately, this was the right decision, but it was difficult to make without a long term perspective. In reality, I only missed five percent of my scheduled mileage; I still had 95 percent of my miles in by race day, and I was fine. “Race day came so quickly,” recalled Keri. “I hoped my training was adequate.” The three of us showed up at the start, and we immediately knew this was completely unlike any marathon we’d ever done. There was no music blaring, no line for the bathroom, a campfire burning at the starting line and maybe 150 people standing around very casually. Keri remembered, “The atmosphere was very laid back and low key.” What struck me the most was the actual start of the 50K. The race director got up on a ladder, literally a step ladder, and gave a few brief instructions. Towards the end, he said, “Okay, we’ll start in five.” We assumed this meant that in five minutes we’d have an official start, until he began counting, “Five!...four!...three!...two!...” Instantly, I loved the atmosphere of this race. We were off. The first leg of the Ice Age 50K is a six and a half mile out and back on undulating, single track trail. Making up 13 miles of the race, this is the most technical
13
part of the course. We scaled craggy hillsides, single track dirt, sand, grass, gravel and trails studded with rocks about the size of tennis balls. For this road runner, the terrain was a major shock and had me relying heavily on my training at Murphy, even if it was minimal. I knew when I saw a hillside that had railroad ties on guard against avalanches that I was no longer in Kansas. The first 13 miles were a seminar in ultramarathon culture, most notably in two ways. First was that only 90 seconds into the race, we encountered our first hill, and the entire field slowed to a walk. Everyone walked up that first hill and every hill thereafter. This came as a significant relief, because we had read about this, and it turned out to be true. Luckily, we had trained, or had been forced to train, to walk up hills. Alex explained the second point of ultramarathon culture brilliantly. “Early on in the race, some of the leaders of the 50 mile race were coming towards us on the single track portion of the course. These guys were just bombing these downhills, but were yelling out encouragement to us 50Kers as they screamed by. “It amazed me that these guys who had been on the course for three plus hours at this point were so positive. This attitude was not isolated to a few, but nearly every person on the course, and it was contagious. Pretty soon, I found myself giving encouragement to anyone I passed or passed by me. It felt as if everyone was in the race together all trying to tame the relentless beast of a course we had come to run. It was truly an experience like no other.” The 13 mile mark puts you back at the start/finish line. From here, you go out on two nine mile loops of a Nordic ski trail in Kettle Moraine State Forest. This loop started with a short break from the terrain and at first offered three to four miles of gently rolling grassy trails. I felt a huge sigh of relief, because I thought the worst was behind me. In truth, it was only a
JULY/AUGUST 2012
brief respite before returning to significant ups and downs. In some cases, the terrain was worse than the first out and back. “I was expecting hills for the first half of the race, but I was not expecting it to remain hilly during the second half,” Alex said. “The hills were relentless.” He was right because the next three miles of the loop were full of steep climbs and descents. Up and down we went until miles 18 to 22 where the course tempered slightly. We were treated to soft paths through old growth pine forests with only minimal grades to battle. By mile 22, I had completed my first loop of the Nordic trail. I was back where I started and staring down one more nine mile loop. I got some encouragement from my wife, ate a banana and set off again. The first time around had given me a mental map of the course, so at least I knew what was in store. However, all I could think about by this point was the sweet release of the finish line. By the last time through the hilly section, I couldn’t wait for the next hill, because it meant a chance to walk. Comparing notes afterward, each of us admitted looking forward to the hilly sections of this loop, just so we could walk it. This type of warped thinking is apparently common after 20 odd miles on the Ice Age trail. Anyone who’s trained for and completed a race knows the feeling of seeing the finish line come into view. When I saw the finish
line, I felt that huge rush of emotion that everyone feels: accomplishment, relief, pride, pain. The race director was cheering me on, along with a hundred or so spectators, and sharing the love that everyone in the race had offered. When I crossed the finish line 5:22 after I started, I felt a real sense of achievement. I was extremely tired, but still felt good enough to stand around, chat and eat some fruit and pasta salad. True to the casual nature of this race, I even enjoyed a pour from the kegs of local beer they had out for all the participants. I am really proud of my fellow runners, Alex Stephens and Keri Peterson, who also finished the race with ear-to-ear smiles on their faces. Alex finished in 5:43 and Keri finished in 6:36. Our finish times are merely a marker of completion; the fact that we trained for and completed this race at all was the real accomplishment. On May 12, three MDRAers achieved a new goal that was six or more months in the making and had fun doing it. This is vastly more important than the times. After the race, we sat together in our hotel room, trading experiences of the day, generally basking in the glow of what we’d all done. Accomplishment and satisfaction dripped from the walls while we enjoyed a drink we had really earned. At that moment it was obvious why this was a great event.

HOME Duluth hosts the U.S. Half Marathon Championships BY ALEX KURT
While thousands of runners took part in Grandma’s Marathon and the Garry Bjorklund Half Marathon in Duluth, June 16, a smaller group of elites was competing for additional accolades at the U.S. Half Marathon Championship.

One of Minnesota’s biggest and best showcases of running served as the host event for the championships, which drew a slew of elite competitors hunting for a national title and a piece of the $82,000 purse. They included many of Minnesota’s top runners and others with Minnesota roots, including women’s champion Kara Goucher. The Duluth East graduate returned home to win the national half marathon title in 1:09:46. Abdi Abdirahman, of Tuscon, Arizona, took the men’s and overall title in 1:02:46, edging fellow Arizonans, Brett Gotcher, of Flagstaff, and Ian Burrell, also of Tuscon, by three and five seconds, respectively.

time, and had that goal of a PR in mind the whole way. From 10 miles on I was just running scared that I wasn’t going to PR.” She was followed by Team USA Minnesota’s Emily Brown, of Minnetonka, who was sixth (eightyninth overall) in 1:12:44, and Kim Robinson, of Bloomington, who was twenty-first (one hundred sixteenth overall) in 1:16:05. “When I felt comfortable with our pace, even through 10K, and I was still in the top six to eight, I was getting a little worried that my body was going to give up on me at any moment,” said Brown, who was running only her second half marathon. “But luckily the fatigue didn’t really set in until we crested the hill and I hit the 10 mile mark. That’s when the chase pack started to pull away from me, and I just tried to stay composed and hold my position even though I was hurting pretty badly.” “My finish wasn’t pretty, but I was glad I pushed through and finished the race, because I worked so hard to get there,” she continued.

“We knew we would lose a certain number of athletes who skipped the half marathon championships to compete in the U.S. Olympic Track Trials, but all in all we couldn’t have asked for a better field,” said Grandma’s Marathon spokesperson Bob Gustafson. “Fortunately, the timing was ideal for Kara and Abdi as they prepared for their Olympic marathons.” The top Minnesotan at the race was Michael Reneau, of St. Paul, who finished tenth in 1:04:37. He was five seconds ahead of Team USA Minnesota member Matt Gabrielson, who finished eleventh in 1:04:42. “I’ve gone back and forth on how I feel about my race,” said Gabrielson, who competed in the Olympic Marathon Trials in Houston in January, where he was in the first chase pack before dropping out. “I’m a little bit disappointed, but at the same time I realize it was a pretty decent race considering the training I’ve gotten in this spring.” Gabrielson also noted he developed a side stitch near the five mile mark, which persisted until nearly the 12 mile mark. “I might have been out too fast,” he said. “I did feel really good and thought I might be in the top three or five, so I’m disappointed I didn’t hold on.” Joe Moore, of Minneapolis, finished twelfth, one second behind Gabrielson. And fellow Team USA Minnesota runners, Josh Moen, of Eden Prairie, and Matt Llano, of Minneapolis, finished nineteenth and twenty-second, in 1:05:25 and 1:05:38, respectively. In the women’s race, the top Minnesotan (discounting Goucher, who now trains in Portland, Oregon) was former Team USA Minnesota runner Michelle Frey, of Minneapolis, who finished third (eighty-fifth overall) in 1:11:45. “The race went perfectly,” said Frey, who PR’d by over a minute. “I was kind of pressing the whole
Minnesota’s best Among the Minnesotans who competed at the U.S. Half Marathon Championship, there was a universal feeling at Duluth and the Grandma’s festivities acting as host: pride. “This was the first time we hosted a men’s national title race, so it was especially rewarding to bring both races to the same course on the same day,” said Gustafson, who noted that Duluth hosted the women’s half marathon championship in 2003 and 2004, and hosted the women’s marathon championship in 1987, 1990, and 1994. “It was a wonderful day for running in Minnesota.” It was a feeling the runners shared. “There is absolutely no better place in the country for the U.S. championships,” Gabrielson said. “It’s the best experience I’ve had in 10 years running them
Mike Reneau, 10th place as far as the organization and hospitality.” Gabrielson also said it wasn’t just an in-state bias. “Some of my friends from out of states, guys like Jason Hartmann, were just shocked at what Duluth was,” he said. “They were thinking it’s this Midwest, sort of industrial town. Then they get there, and it’s a completely different world than they thought.” Brown said she felt similar when the Twin Cities Ten Mile hosted the U.S. 10 mile championships last fall. “I noticed while I was racing that people were cheering for ‘Emily’ instead of ‘Brown,’ which was what was on my bib,” she
said. “So I knew that those cheering for me must have really known who I was and that I was one of the Minnesota runners. That means a lot to me and I think was a motivator for me to run that much harder.” And as Gabrielson says, Minnesota is a great place for running, and Grandma’s is a great showcase for that running culture. “I love training in Minnesota,” he said. “A lot of great runners are here, either just running to get in shape or running to compete at a relatively high level. We have so many trails and bike paths to accommodate that.”

RUNNING INSIGHTS
All Dogs Want to Run What we can learn from our four-legged friends (usually) BY SHERI DAVICH
I
live in the country. It seems that every house I run past is home to a dog. Hunting dogs, guard dogs, dogs that sit on the porch and impersonate hunting dogs and guard dogs. They’re everywhere, roaming free. I’m sure there are ordinances about such things, even in my rural area. I called our local police chief once to report a particularly frightening encounter. “Mr. Johnson’s dog threatened to take a hunk out of my thigh,” I said. He responded vocally that he’d surely have a talk with Mr. Johnson, but his look said, “If you weren’t running down the street like a felon the dog wouldn’t chase you.”

Now, there are certain inalienable, undeniable facts in this life. The sun will rise in the east each morning. The moment I fix one fax machine or printer at work another one will start acting up. All kids want to see their names in the box score. And all dogs want to run. Many of these dogs’ owners are not runners. I pass by those runner-free houses and their dogs chase me. A select few track me down, barking furiously in a manner that says, “I’m going to drag you down, tear the meat from your bones, slash at your throat and watch the blood drain from your body while howling at the moon, calling all my friends to join me in the feast!”
JULY/AUGUST 2012
They’re not easy to dissuade. Some do it with a bark and a demeanor that says, “Me! Me! I want to come! Let me come!” “No, no!” I tell them. “Go home! Tell Mom and Dad you want to run. You can’t run with me.” That usually sends them on their way. I met a particularly determined four-footed athlete that was worthy of an exception. To him I could not say, “No.” The day we met, he ran right down the middle of the road. I was afraid he’d surely get one of us killed. A car would hit him or hit
me trying to avoid him. As the miles went by, I started to worry that he wouldn’t find his way home. I stopped and faced him, pointing in the direction from which he had come, saying firmly, “Go home!” He turned and pretended to retreat, but once I started running again, he fell back in step. After attempting to shoo him about 10 times, he appeared to give up. Off into a stand of trees he vanished, and I continued on my way thinking, “Whew! Free at last!” Suddenly he appeared out of the trees. He trotted up with a Burger King Whopper box that he carried carefully and dropped at my feet. Well, that was it. I’d been gifted. I couldn’t say no. I insisted he run in the ditch, and he obediently did exactly as he was told. He ran two miles out and two miles back. He turned down his road at the proper time. Gave me a wag with his tail saying a friendly “goodbye” and that was it, for that day. He joined me a few more times before we moved. He never made a sound, but for the “click, click” of his nails on pavement. One of the best running partners I ever had. I hope he finds another. Trot on, runner dog, trot on.
