communication. Finally one of them got rather emphatic: “Look, if you're going to run with us,” he puffed, “don't talk!” Larry Miller of Weeki Wachee, Florida Don't hesitate to add your voice for is like a lot of runners today who were active when this publication started in 1984. No longer a competitive runner. It's not fair that we slow down with age. As Larry put it, “After nearly 30 years of running, the wear on the body and age have caught up with me.” However, he continues to “exercise for health.” I trust that includes some jogging. In any instance, Larry wrote to us, something many runners do on a regular basis. I like that, keeps me informed, though reading all the emails takes a lot of time - enjoyable time. After 29 years of publishing, I continue to enjoy every good moment, like the time a young boy came up to me at a race in Lumberton, NC, with a copy of the magazine and proudly pointed at a group of runners dashing away from the starting line of a race. “That's my dad,” he said. Emma Moses, 12-year-old runner from Lakeland, Florida, who was featured in Running Journal's October issue and more recently on our Running.Net website in a column written by Bryan Graydon, wrote a thank you note. What a nice gesture by a young runner. How many youngsters do that today? Much appreciated. An official with a YMCA that serves military personnel at Fayetteville, NC, emailed to ask for help in finding someone to assist in putting on a race next year Note from Emma Moses at Fort Bragg. I have a soft spot for the military and hopefully provided useful information and contacts. We hear from runners across the South every day. There are running friends I've never met, yet know from email exchanges. Whether it be a newsletter ediin tor in Mississippi, a running writer in West Virginia, an ultra runner in Florida, a race director in Georgia, a veteran runner in Tennessee, a new runner in Alabama, or someone seeking information in Kentucky, I enjoy the communication. An older runner (like I am now at 75) once communicated very clearly with me. I had decided to run in the back of the pack in a 10 miler and gradually move up. While drifting along with some older runners, I chatted with them. Just friendly

whatever reason. Our email address is RJ@Running.Net and we serve 50,000 runners - and the most important one is you.

The Athlete’s Kitchen More Sports Nutrition News You Can Use The 2013 Annual Meeting of American College of Sports Medicine was chockfull of nutrition news you can use. This article continues from where I left off in my previous article (Sept. 2013) and offers additional research findings. • Do serious athletes need protein supplements? Doubtful. Among 30 competitive 14-20-year old male and female athletes who were living at a sports training facility (IMG Academies), all of the males and 75 percent of the females consumed more than the recommended protein intake: about 0.5 to 0.75 g protein/lb (1.2 to 1.7 g pro/kg). The dietary assessments indicate they consumed about 1 g protein/lb (2 g pro/kg) via their standard daily meals and snacks. • Although athletes can easily consume adequate protein from standard meals, a survey with 150 male and female Division-I collegiate athletes indicates more than half of them use protein supplements. A waste of money? • Among 215 Navy SEALs, 86 percent ate less than the recommended carbohydrate intake (>5 g carb/kg). Like many serious athletes, the SEALs chose a diet that would help build muscles --but not optimally fuel muscles. • Are commercial recovery drinks better than homemade ones? Doubtful. A study comparing a fruit smoothie (made with milk, banana, berries) with a commercial product showed similar recovery benefits for subjects who did muscle-damaging exercise. Both recovery drinks offered the same amount of calories, protein, and carb. Food works! • Even experienced veteran cyclists do a poor job of refueling. Only 38 percent of 212 competitive cyclists chose a carbohydrate-protein mix. Because residual fatigue from both training and competition strongly influences the ability to perform optimally, you would be wise to pay attention to a proper recovery diet! • Although adequate hydration contributes to optimal performance, it can disrupt sleep in athletes who rehydrate primarily at the end of the day. A study with 35 male rugby players indicates 75 percent of them did a good job of rehydrating at a 10-day training camp. However, those who hydrated well at night tended to wake up at least three or more times to urinate. For better sleep, drink more fluids right when you finish exercising, instead of

near bedtime. • For 17 days, well-trained cyclists took an antioxidant supplement containing freeze-dried fruit-vegetable juice powder. The supplement offered no boost in immune function beyond that created by exercise itself. Instead of antioxidant pills, you might want to buy a health club membership? • Sprinters, rowers, and other competitive athletes who do high intensity exercise sometimes use a buffer (such as betaalanine or sodium bicarbonate) that delays the onset of fatigue associated with lactic acid. Athletes who use beta-alanine often complain about “beta-tingles,” a tingling and itchy side effect. The itchiness is not resolved by taking an antihistamine, because the response is activated by the nervous system, not the immune system. A solution is to choose time-released betaalanine capsules. • Would combining beta-alanine with sodium bicarbonate be more effective than either buffer alone at enhancing an athlete's ability to perform intense exercise? Perhaps -- but they would have to be able to tolerate the sodium bicarb. Rowers in a 2000-meter time trial experienced more benefit from the beta-alanine alone (6.5 seconds faster) vs. sodium bicarb alone (three seconds faster). Both taken together added a one-second bonus, enough to possibly be beneficial. • Intestinal issues are a major problem among athletes. Among a group of 36 triathletes in the Lake Placid Ironman, 81 percent complained of stomach pain and cramping. Athletes who consumed either adequate or inadequate fluids both reported similar GI problems. The symptoms were generally mild and did not correlate with finish time. • If you cannot tolerate pre-exercise food due to nerves (or are fasting, as happens with some religious holidays), try swishing with water or a sports drink. Either can

help you perform better. Compared to cyclists who did not swish, those who rinsed their mouth with either regular or calorie-free sports drinks during a 30minute warm-up performed about four minutes faster (13 vs. 17 min.) in a 10K time trial. • If you have ever broken a bone, you were likely dismayed when the cast was removed and you saw how much the muscle shrank. Muscles quickly lose size and strength within five days. In a study with young men (23 years old) who had a fullleg cast for five or 14 days, the size of the quadriceps decreased from baseline by 3.5 percent in five days and 8.5 percent in 14 days. Strength declined by 8.5 percent and 23 percent in five and 15 days, respectively. Use it or lose it. • When 59-year-old adults lifted weights twice a week for 12 weeks, they lost only about two pounds of fat and gained only about one pound of muscle. The exercise program did not trigger any spontaneous dietary improvements. Take note: It's hard to out-exercise a poor diet... • Some women fret that adding weight lifting to their cardio workouts will make them “bulk up.” Ten sedentary adults (ages 23-24) alternated days of high-intensity interval rowing with maximal-intensity weight lifting. In five weeks, the women had no significant changes in body composition. In comparison, the men added about 3.5 percent lean body mass (muscle). Ladies, little need to fret about bulking up! o Having arthritis should not be an excuse to stop exercising. Exercise actually helps reduce the pain and fatigue associated with osteoarthritis and improves one's ability to sit/stand and walk. • Being active offers more than health benefits. Office workers who were taught how to reduce sedentary behaviors perceived they improved their work performance. For certain, living an active lifestyle is the right choice!

He Said, She Said Have You Ever Run a Tally in the Valley? If you are a competitive runner, road races likely transform you into a computing calculator. You know - you keep count of nearly everything. At your most recent race for example, you may have run a one-mile warm-up, stood behind two people waiting for the porta potty, confirmed the three-deep age group awards, fastened your four bib-holding safety pins, and approached the starting line vicinity five minutes before the starting gun fires. Once there, you may have approximated a total of 250 to 300 runners, determined 20 or so to be in your age group, and assessed six or so of those to be serious runners -- based on their fancy schmancy watches, really cool running attire, and long lean running legs, of course. With visible numbers on digital clocks, mile markers, and posted race results, it's easy to keep a close accounting of influencing factors at a race. But this month I ask, “Have you ever run a tally in the valley?”

Will Morrell at the Run the Valley 10k

He (William Morrell) Said… Road Runners Club of America's newly-named NC Senior Grand Masters 10K Champion, Will Morrell, has. In fact, during the Sept. 21 Run the Valley 10K where he earned his Championship title,

on. As a race director, competitive runner, and USATF coach this race was hitting on all cylinders,” he said. Morrell, who keeps count of his more than 70 training miles each week, had counted on a sub 41-minute race time for the Run the Valley 10K. “I wish I had counted on the turns and hills .... the down-turns as much as the hills,” he said, thinking back on the day when he also met countless runners, including Richard Hefner who he had wanted to race with for years, and a 16year old runner who he paced. “That remarkable 16-year old runner who tagged me at the very end, has a super future should he stay with what is very evidently his sport,” Morrell said of Nicholas Batten. The youthful 62-year old, Morrell, has a super future, too, as he plans possible upcoming races in the days to come. As he tallies up the remaining race days this year, he hopes to add two more 10Ks, the USATF Masters 12K Nationals, and a marathon to his year's total. “It has been said that whenever anything fires a man's soul, impossibilities vanish,” Morrell said. “Running is important to me for it fires my soul.”

Morrell ran a rough tally of the runners he ran alongside. “I saw about five or six runners ahead of me make the left-hand turn to head the 200 yards to the finish line,” 62-year old Morrell said, recounting his 43-minute run that landed him seventh place overall. Run the Valley began in 1998 as a 10K race exclusively. Today, the annual event also includes a 5K distance and a challenging half marathon that takes runners to the top of Morrow Mountain. Morrell and his fellow 10K runners experienced the mountain amidst the valley, too, as their course carried them a ways up the mountain to realize the turnaround for the out and back course. “I did not expect the large hill at the turnaround,” first-time runner of the Run the Valley race Morrell said. “The course was very rolling with challenging high She (Mary Marcia Brown) Said… country type of mountain hills, sharp inclines, and upward and downward turns. Life is filled with pleasurable peaks and “The name of the race was not very accurate,” Morrell smiled, expounding on vilifying valleys. We rejoice at the highs the Race Director's cleverness. and curse what we consider to be loath“Otherwise, I don't see a lot to improve some bad luck lows. Sometimes we even

expect bad luck - keeping tally of the downward turns in the valley. You've likely heard people's projections of failure when referring to “losing streaks” or their predictions of subpar occurrences as they contend that “bad things always come in threes.” Perhaps good things come in threes, too. In fact, maybe good things come in 333s. Maybe we get what we expect - we create what we believe. Whether you set a new PR at your last road race or barely beat the course cutoff time, expect your next run to be stellar. Believe that it will be and then create it. Your thoughts are just as much a part of your running experience as your legs. November is the perfect time of year to practice the often-referenced “attitude of gratitude.” Make every day of the month Thanksgiving by counting the things for which you are truly grateful. Maybe it's the weather that affords a comfortable outdoor run, the smile of a running passerby, the support of new running shoes, the company of a running partner, or the immeasurably emotive memory of runs in the past. Sure, when we get down and out, keeping tally in the elusive valley may be tempting. But keeping count on the mountain peak is much more productive. So in the spirit of Thanksgiving, pass the stuffing, then get to running, and count on some incredible miles.

For the Love of Running Sometimes One Race Just Isn’t Enough For many runners, giving it their all on that weekend 5K is plenty when it comes to racing. There are, however, runners out there who sometimes just need a little more and that's what they got in The Aching Quad Series held in Lakeland, FL Sept. 13-14.

By Bryan Graydon President, Lakeland Runners Club

The series was started several years ago by Rob Mason because of the love he and a small group of Lakeland runners had for the multirace event they attended every year in

Jacksonville, The Tour de Pain. The multirace format is not for everyone, so it started with very small numbers the first few years but steadily added a few more people each year. Last year's event had just under a 100 participants registered for the 4-race series, but this year's edition grew to 150 runners doing all four races. This type of event is not for everyone, but those who come out love not just the races, but the camaraderie they feel with their fellow runners. “I think the attraction to the event is four races in 24 hours. It's a challenge to the body and mind. Can I do it? Can I run the Saturday 5K faster than the Friday 5K?” said race director Gail Hardy. “So many of the run-

Justin Perkins finishing the two-mile race of the Aching Quad Series.

The Aching Quad is a series of four races in 24 hours beginning with a 5K around Lake Hollingsworth on Friday night at 7:30. That is followed by a one-mile race around Lake Morton at 7 a.m. and a two-mile race around Lake Hunter at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday. The final race is another 5K around Lake Hollingsworth at 7 p.m. Saturday.

ners get to spend time with old friends and make new ones throughout the weekend that it keeps them coming back the next year.” This year's series winner was Justin Perkins, 22, of Lakeland. Justin won all races outright with only a four-second difference between the times on his two 5Ks. “My strategy for the races was to push hard the first section of each race and go out fast. That way, since everyone was already fatigued, it would make it harder for them to catch up to me,” he said. Perkins is training for his first ever marathon in Jacksonville in December so he followed up The Aching Quad with a 20-mile run on Sunday. Not conventional marathon training, but when asked how it fit into his marathon training he said, “It gave me the chance to prove to myself what kind of shape I am in and gave me a little confidence to carry me through the rest of my training until the marathon in December.” Even though the event is somewhat small, it still comes with its share of challenges. Chip timing is not used so the results are tabulated and entered by hand so they can be posted before each race to let runners know where they stand in their age division. “It's not so bad after the first race since we have some time, but the challenge comes with getting everything ready between the one and twomile races on Saturday,” Hardy said. “Volunteers are breaking down the course and equipment from one lake to get it to the other while the results are being entered and printed for the racers to see. Time really flies between those two races.” Since the runners work hard and earn it, there is a post-series party after the Saturday night 5K with food, beverages and the awards presentations. It's been held at a different place each year to keep it fresh and this year's was held at Hurricane Alley in downtown Lakeland before their normal weekend crowd arrived. The runners and their families come to share in their accomplishment and bask in the glow of what they have done over the last 24 hours. “The comment I hear quite often at the after party is that. 'I know why they call it the Aching Quad,” said Hardy. “Mostly they tell me how they love the challenge, the beautiful scenic courses and that will definitely be back next year.”

Meb Keflezighi and the New York Marathon By Roy Stevenson

Sponsored by Skechers Performance Division

skechersperformance.com • Facebook: @SkechersPerformance • Twitter: @skechersGO Instagram: @SkechersPerformance

Whenever the world’s elite marathoners toe the start line alongside popular U.S. runner Meb Keflezighi, they know they’re in for an honest race. In fact, the Skechers Performance sponsored Keflizighi brings new meaning to the word ‘consistent’, with a remarkably homogenous series of marathon times. Consider Meb’s seasons best times since he took up the 26-miler in 2002: 2:12:35 (2002); 2:10:03 (2003); 2:09:53 (2004); 2:09:56 (2005); 2:09:56 (2006); 2:15:09 (2007); 2:09:29 (2009); 2:09:15 (2010); 2:09:13 (2011); 2:09:08 (2012). There are Kenyans who’d give up their racing flats for this staggering string of times! Some distance runners are known for their fast times and their inability to win or place in the “big show”, but Meb proves you can do both and do them well. His performances—starting with Athens Olympic Silver and NYC runner-up in 2004— and followed by none-too-shabby 3rd (NYC, 2005); 3rd (Boston, 2006); 1st (NYC & US Champs, 2009); 5th (Boston, 2010) and 6th (NYC, 2010); 6th (NYC, (2011); 1st (Olympic Trials, 2012) and 4th (London Olympic Games, 2012) indicate that Meb is always a force to be reckoned with. Not bad performances for one of a family of eleven children, who emigrated to the USA from Eritrea to escape war and pursue an education. Now living in San Diego, California, Meb has returned to his hometown but still plans on going back to Mammoth, California for altitude training. Meb continues to cruise through workouts that would cripple most young runners and looks to continue to "Run To Win" to his last race....whenever that may be. Skechers Performance Division signed another endorsement contract in 2012 with Meb. Relatively new to the running shoe market, Skechers Performance is pri-

marily known for their innovative and unusual curved sole that encourages mid-foot strike, versus the standard heel strike. Meb’s NYC victory in 2009 made him the first American to win in 27 years (he was sworn in as a US Citizen in 1998) and now that he has a taste for winning the NYC marathon, he’s eager to repeat his victory. With 2012 Olympic Champion and 2013 World Champion, Ugandan Stephen Kiprotich, committed to running this year’s NYC Marathon, plus super-stars like Boston and NYC record holder Geoffrey Mutai, Chicago runner-up Wesley Korir, and American Ryan Hall, Meb’s going to have to work hard to outpace these guys. But Meb’s solid 4th in last year’s London Olympic marathon indicates he’s still a player. One consistent rule about marathons is that anything can go wrong at any time, even to the favorites. How many times have we seen the pre-race favorite leading by minutes, only to come unglued in the final 1-2 miles, and pull up lame, or be remorselessly passed by a stream of others? If someone is having a bad day, Meb’ll be there, shadowing, watching, and waiting to pounce, with his usual finesse. Meb’s unerring consistency is why he’s still a contender for placing at this years NYC event, and if he pulls out that “big one” that lurks deep inside every marathoner—and all of his spark plugs are firing—he has as much chance of winning as any of the top five seeds. In the last two years, Meb has trained for 6 of the worlds most competitive marathons, when most runners of his caliber average 2 per year. If these miles have not set Meb back, we should expect similar results from Meb in this year's NYC Marathon.

Coming Full Circle By Neal Riemenschneider

Race Director Retires as Records Fall Seven age group records fell at the 10th annual Eton 4 Miler State Championship on the last Saturday of September. This jewel of a road race was started by race director Terry Strawser 10 years ago and this was Terry's penultimate year as he actually managed to run his own race and win his age group before he retires. Terry saw a need for a state championship after he started his race 10 years ago. After several years of course changes and dealing with the paperwork, Terry obtained the sanction to hold his race as the official state championship. Until last spring his race was the only certified four miler in the state of Georgia. So his race still has most of the state age group records. Terry has been a tireless worker doing most of the work himself. He solicits many door prizes from local merchants and the post-race drawing keeps folks around to partake of all the food and drink. Terry will definitely be missed and the runners who have traveled to tiny Eton will miss his smiling face, great awards, and well-organized race. He reports that the Capital City Runners Club in nearby Dalton will take over the event. This year, race morning dawned cool with the first hint of fall in the air. Runners began arriving early to preview the fairly flat course. Although, over the years, we have had torrential rain and hot weather, Terry's farewell race had perfect weather. The sun rose in our eyes as the gun went off. After a half mile loop of the wishing well, the course proceeded out a rural road into the pristine countryside. The winning female told me later that the out and back is slightly uphill going out which makes for a fast finish. I guess in 10 years I should have figured that out! Terry is a very patriotic man and veteran, so the race started with the national anthem, a few instructions, and we were off. Local masters star Dean Thompson, 48, of Cohutta quickly took the lead from 13-year-old Benjamin Lablance of Powder Springs. Thompson continued to lead to the finish averaging 5:33 a mile for a 22:09 while Lablance took a solid second in 22:49. Beth Old, 38, of Marietta finished fourth overall in 25:26 well ahead of second-place finish-

er Melissa Dykes who ran 29:31. The 10th annual race appeared to be a family event as sisters Sarah Burnette, 10, and Miriam Burnette, 13, set age group records in 30:53 and 30:28 respectively. Benjamin Lablance's time of 22:09 garnered him a place in the records books as did 47-year-old Holly Kimsey's 30:11 and 75-year-old Jerry Cooper's 41:01. But the first ever father/daughter state records go to Ron Mallory, 65, (28:22) and his daughter Beth Old (25:26). Ron has been burning up the roads in north Georgia for years and has not lost an age group competition in a long time. Obviously Beth inherited some propensity for speed as she was an All-American in cross-country and track during her time at Georgia Tech. She still holds the indoor mile record. Beth used her talents after graduation in 1998 to compete for the Atlanta Track Club and make the 2004 Olympic Marathon Trials and finished in the money in the top 15. Her 2:39 marathon personal best was a while ago but Beth is back after dealing with injury and having three children. The youngest has started school, Beth is healthy and obviously returning to her speed and winning ways. Keep an eye on Beth as she enters the masters ranks next fall. After the four mile race and a one mile fun run, all gathered in the Masonic Lodge. Terry utilized his race to honor Jim Hite of Millen who died Sept. 6 at the age of 79 shortly after his customary four mile run. Terry had many conversations with Jim as he and his wife Joyce have kept the state record books for many years. Terry convinced them to run his race several years ago where they both claimed state age group records. Jim and Joyce were partners in everything they did and greatly admired each other's accomplishments. Terry had a

I have come full circle. I have been doing this running and racing thing for some 35 years now. My daughters are both grown and gone (if I knew how much fun my wife and I would have without them I would have moved them out when they were 12…) and while they walk and work out, they are not runners. But that is A okay with me. My kids never had to be what I am (God help us all if that occurred), I just wanted them to do whatever it is they wanted to do. And while one ran four years in high school and they both ran a few seasons at the Division III college level, running was not something they saw as a lifetime activity as Daddy did. Which is fine with me. I still love my daughters for just being themselves (I love them even more now that they don't ask for money or food…). But early in September, I was fortunate to witness a spectacular event: At the completion of a race I was competing in, they had a 100-meter event for kids. And showing up to participate was my twoyear-old granddaughter. If you have ever witnessed these events, they are the cutest events around. Little tykes with numbers pinned on that are almost as big as they are, lots of cheering adults, and kids with big smiles as they run, trot and walk to the finish. And for the first time ever, my granddaughter Caylin was there participating. Sure, I am a proud grandpa, and yes, she had fun and loved the freeze pops at the end but it did this sour grouchy old man good to see her out there just having a good time. That's what this running and racing thing should be. Fun. And it won't matter to me in the least if she never participates in another event like this one. It was just great seeing her out there having fun. Glad I didn't miss it.

lovely memorial picture of himself with Joyce and Jim when they set their records on display. Jim will truly be missed by the running community. The door prizes came next and many of the runners left with a great prize. I suspect local merchants all know Terry and know when he comes calling that he is looking for goodies for his race. I have never been to any other race that has so many door prizes that are collected by one guy! Terry has always had beautiful awards and despite this time of declining sponsorship, Terry still had colorful plaques and large trophies for the first place boy and girl in the mile where all finishers got a medal. In addition to fiveyear age groups Terry recognizes not only overall and masters but grandmasters and senior grandmasters. Everyone had plenty of fluids, food, and fun. As a competitor himself, Terry has always realized that quality in a race is of paramount importance. From flyers, to registration, to the course, to accurate timing, to safety, to T-shirt, to post race amenities, Terry has been perfect with every aspect. He has taken great pride in his event and has every year for the past 10 given the running community a first class event. He has worked to enhance his race every year with something to make it better. Last year I went over the afternoon before the race and there was Terry doing everything himself and getting set up for race morning. He wanted everything just right. This year he was out the night before the race re-measuring the Neal Riemenschneider has completed course just in case something had 1255 races changed. His attention to detail has been phenomenal. So after 10 years he is retiring from his real job and plans to tour the country with his wife and finally take some time for serious training. He has more than earned a vacation but he will certainly be missed. Thank you Terry for all of the love and care you put into establishing your race. It was the best!

By Karen Gordon On a morning when the mountains at Pipestem State Park are steeped in rainy mist, a zombie brandishing a large bloody looking knife runs down the hill. A few minutes later a lovely princess in pink and a gypsy bedecked in bangles with a peacock feather in her hair races past. Nightmare? Movie scene? No, runners in West Virginia's oldest continuing 10K race, the Pumpkin Run. Southern West Virginia Road Runners Club (SWVRRC) held the first Pumpkin Run on October 22, 1978, with an entry fee of $2. There was also a run for “Little Pumpkins.” In 2012 there were participants from all surrounding areas in the 10K and the 5K. Many joined in the 5K walk and there was a fun run for the kids. From the beginning, SWVRRC has been family oriented and encourages all members of the family to join, runners and non-runners. There are a variety of ages of children, men, women and couples who run with the club. Many members have enjoyed running with the club since its establishment in 1977. At the December meeting in 2012 Club members celebrated its 35th anniversary. Several times a year the members gather to discuss club business and then spend time socializing, talking about races that they have run all over the country, and spending a fair amount of time eating. The topics of the best way to heal injuries and where to stay at out-of-state races can be heard. The club consists of top serious competitors to those who run for health reasons and all stages in between. Non-running members help out in many ways from timing at races to handing out drinks. Along with meetings, the Club has special events. An annual August picnic is held every August with members bringing favorite dishes to share, and a February winter bowling night. Currently, a project is underway to collect

trophies which will be donated to the local handicap workshop. SWVRRC has a point system running series that is an enjoyable way to keep track of the races run. Points are applied for ten races in the area. Extra points are applied when you place in the top three in your age group and more points if you place in the top three overall. Special shirts are awarded to the 10 runners who have the most points at the end of the year. You can sign up to become a member and read more about the club at Southern West Virginia Road Runners website: http://swvrrc.org. If you are top competitor, a health advocate, or just enjoy running you will be welcomed. Please visit the website and look at pictures that taken by several club members. While you're visiting the site read a few of the articles by some of our runners. The meetings take place in the Princeton area and we hope to see you at the fall meeting. For more information on the Southern West Virginia Road Runners Club or to add your upcoming race to our race schedule on our website, email Karen Gordon at kgordon@citlink.net. By the way, that zombie (Conley White) mentioned in the beginning, won first place for best costume.

The lottery for entries to the 10 Mile Run and the 5K Run-Walk opens at 10 a.m. on Monday, December 2, 2013 and extends through midnight on Friday, December 13, 2013. Or obtain a guaranteed entry by raising funds for The Children’s Miracle Network. Complete entry details at www.cherryblossom.org.

Running Fitness You Never Know, But Stay Positive As a runner or not, I always try to stay kind-hearted and focused on the positive. I hate to complain about anything. Life is way too short. Especially as a runner, I appreciate the ability to get out and run any distance on any day. When I got my running coaching certification, the line I remember most was the instructor saying, “Running is a gift that can be taken away at any moment.” In a crazy world, running is relief and time to get away from it all. Doctors often prescribe running as a way to ease depression. I say this as a preface to my running in a great 5K, the Manatee Glens 5K at Sutton Park in Palmetto. The event was to raise awareness about suicide. One speaker talked about how there are more suicide deaths now from current wars than actual war casualties. Mary Moonen and others gave riveting talks, moving us to tears, speaking about their own battles with depression and suicide. It was the longest I ever had to wait for race awards (won my age group). But it was worth the sobering reminder that many people have tough

By Ellen Jaffe Jones

demons to battle. So I shouldn't have let the lady from the library bother me. But there I was, driving to a race that had listed online with three different possible start times. The registration site said 7 a.m., though other sites said later. I got there in the dark, and saw most of the street parking was gone. I followed the flow of cars in front of me that were pulling into the back of what looked to be an unmarked large office building. We parked in all of the spaces, probably with the same thought: It's Saturday. Nobody will be here. I registered, found out I was 2 hours early and warmed up.

Twenty minutes before the race, I went back to my car to continue my pre-race prep. A lady shouts out her car window in the next aisle, “Get out of my space!” I said, “The race is about to start, police have the streets blocked off.” She gets out yelling at me all the way in to the building, “This is my job at the library and you're in my space. You may be fast, but you're rude.” I answered, “You know, the hundred extra feet you just walked may be good for you.” There was much I wanted to say before she slammed what I realized was the unmarked door to the unmarked back of a library. I wanted to say, as I have when traffic-slowed drivers scream at runners during a race, “Thank us for maintaining such good health so that your insurance premiums are lower.” I couldn't resist sharing with a policemen on the street. I told him I was a little concerned that the woman might do something to my car. He said, “I'll keep an eye out. If she does, I'll shoot her.” We laughed. He told me some of his favorite crazy calls he had recently. “Don't let her spoil your race.

It's a public parking lot.” Because of the long program, the usual awards that come right after a race didn't happen until two hours after I finished. Reluctantly, I went back to my car to get snacks. The lady must have been watching the security camera the whole time, emerging immediately, “Moving your car yet?” she said, to which I answered, “I talked about you with the policeman. Talk to him or the organizers of this race. It is for a wonderful cause. If this town would like to continue to have races to support such important causes like suicide prevention a couple of times a year, it might be good for you to be kind to runners for a few hours.” She slammed the door. I shared the update with the policeman. Waiting for results, I heard a balloon pop. It crossed my mind the officer had shot her while catching her at my car. Thankfully, my fears were unfounded. As a former TV reporter, I've seen it all. I was eager to leave. These days, you never know what sets people off.

Masters Running

Diana Nyad - an Inspiration for Masters Runners “I have three messages: One - We should never, ever give up! Two - You are never too old to chase your dreams. Three - It looks like a solitary sport but it's a team effort.” When you read this, almost two months have passed since 64-year-old Diana Nyad offered these simple truths. She had just accomplished what nobody had done before -- to swim all the way from Cuba to Key West, a distance of about 110 miles. At that time I had just finished writing last month's column. So I know it is old news when you are reading about her remarkable achievement now. However it can stand the test of time and is still very inspiring! And so are the words of wisdom that she spoke as she emerged from the water. Not just for swimmers, but also for runners, and masters runners in particular. Nyad had tried that swim four times before, but was forced to give up each time. She had just turned 64 when she was successful in her fifth attempt. She didn't give up, and she didn't let her advancing age stop her from trying over and over again. I can't think of any accomplishment in running that could be considered comparable to swimming more than 100 miles in shark-infested waters. Possibly running coast to coast, which apparently a few people have done, with breaks to eat and sleep I presume. Most of us don't have goals as lofty as Nyad's, and we don't aspire to take a journey from the East Coast to the West Coast on foot. But we runners often have a few things on our bucket list that we want to accomplish, some of which could be quite challenging. For example, completing an ultra marathon or running a marathon in every state. Some of us might consider running in itself to be rewarding enough, just having some time for ourselves, and feeling the sun (or the rain!) on our face and the wind in our hair. But most of us like to have goals. We need something that motivates us to carry on, something that gives us a specific, tangible reason to be out there on the roads or trails. We runners are a determined breed, and if we don't accomplish what we set out to do the first time we try again. Setbacks occur, but we won't let them stop us! For example, if you are trying to complete a 100 miler but have to stop because of blisters, most likely you will be out there again the next year, and finish. So Nyad's first message, “We should

By Lena Hollmann RRCA Southern Director

never, ever give up”, resonates quite well with us runners. As a group we are probably tougher than the rest of the population, more likely to keep on trying, and to persevere in spite of adversity. Still, there is always that little voice inside us who tells us to quit when the going gets tough. It is easy to give up, so much easier than to complete a long run in the rain. And easy to give up when you have still not broken four hours in the marathon in spite of trying eight times. There actually are times when giving up may be the right thing. If you are just going through the motions during your training runs, not enjoying it, and feeling like you have “been there, done that,” then the best thing may be to revise your goals, take a break, or maybe even move on to something other than running and racing for a while. But if you really have the desire to accomplish something that has eluded you in the past (to run a Boston qualifying marathon time, for example), then you may want to tape Nyad's messages onto your bathroom mirror, or at least carve them into your memory. Especially if you are a masters runner! As we get older we are more likely to come up with excuses, and tell ourselves that we are “too old” to do this and that. But after Diana Nyad proved that it is possible to swim for 53 hours in the open ocean at age 64, is there really anything left that we can claim we are too old to try? This takes me to Nyad's second message, “You are never too old to chase your dreams.” It is my favorite, and should be an inspiration to us all. If she could swim from Cuba to Key West at age 64, why wouldn't you and I be able to complete a marathon at that age? If we don't succeed in our first try, most likely we will in our second or third. All we need is to believe in ourselves, and in that it CAN be done! If Nyad had believed she was “too old” to swim from Cuba to Key West, there would still have been nobody who had accomplished this as

of today. We can always talk ourselves out of things by finding reasons why they cannot be done. If it isn't our age that's the problem, then it is something else. Not enough time, no talent, the weather, whatever. Obviously we don't want to do things that are risky or dangerous. However, what often stands between us and a great accomplishment is merely the fact that nobody “like us” has done it before. For example, before Kathy Switzer completed the Boston Marathon in 1967 (and unofficially, Roberta Gibb the year before), most people didn't think women could run marathons. But Switzer and Gibb proved that indeed we can! They were trailblazers, expanding our thinking about what is possible. And since then millions of women have run marathons. Likewise, Nyad was a trailblazer, showing us that you can still chase your dreams at age 64. And if you can at 64, why not at age 70, or 80? There is no artificial upper age limit when you have to give up your dreams and head for the rocking chair. As long as we are healthy and our joints can handle it, we can keep on running! Nyad's third message to us was that “It looks like a solitary sport but it's a team effort.” She was talking about swimming of course, but like swimming, running tends to be seen primarily as a solitary pursuit. It may be solitary when we head out

by ourselves for a morning run before work. But whenever we run a race, or even a group run, it is a team effort. In a race you have volunteers directing you around the course and giving you water, and a timing company that records your finish time. And during group runs maybe a fellow runner has put out water on the course beforehand. You may have hired a running coach who makes some changes in your training, and in your next marathon you run a personal best. That's a team effort for sure! Maybe the most important lesson we can learn from Diana Nyad is to believe in ourselves. We can keep on dreaming about things we want to accomplish, places we want to go to, etc. But it won't happen unless we take the necessary steps to get there. And we won't take those steps if we don't believe we can do it! If we keep on telling ourselves that we are too old, that we have tried too many times, etc., then we won't put in the necessary effort, and our dreams will remain just dreams. So instead, believe that you can complete an ultra marathon, run a marathon in every state, run a 45-minute 10K, or whatever your “impossible dream” may be. And don't let your age stop you! Instead, if you can, find some role models of your gender and comparable age (or older) who have already accomplished what you want to do. Then make a game plan, and go for it!

Down the Road The Race Checklist Now that race season is back and fully in swing it is time to check our race list. Don't have one? Maybe you should. Just a short little list of things to do before during and after you sign up for or run a race. First item: Picking a race. Check out the races you are thinking about running. Of course you will look at the information in the Running Journal calendar of races both in the magazine and on the Running.Net calendar. When you see a race you are interested in, check it out on your favorite search engine, be it Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo or some other one. If the race has a website look at it. Has the race been held before? Look at the results of the previous races, especially the most recent ones. Do the results list the USATF course certification number? If not think about why not. If it is not a USATF certified course then you know that the distance is approximate and not exact. Usually races are fairly close to the advertised distance, but you can only be sure if the course is certified and run on the certified course. Of course cost, location, and convenience enter into picking a race. Not to mention your conditioning. If you aren't in shape to run a race longer than 5K, then signing up for a marathon next month is a formula for disaster. Second item: Get registered. Pre-registration is almost always cheaper and helps the race officials plan for the number of runners who will be at the race. But there is always the day when you get up and it is perfect and you feel like racing and there is a race nearby. If you feel up for it, it can be fun to run a race just on impulse. Third item: Pack your race bag the night before. If you get up race day morning and you are rushed, it is easy to forget things. Confession, I had to borrow a pair of running socks from Tony Foster at the Rose Festival race one year. I hadn't packed a bag and thought I had put my running socks into my shoes. But no. So pack the bag and double check it. Then you'll be sure to have all the running things you need when you run the race. Fourth item: Get to the race site early. If you have to drive to it, remember that it takes about an hour for the carbon monoxide that you inhale to dissipate from your lungs. Getting to the site

By Cedric Jaggers

early also gives you time to get your race packet, pin on your number, use the rest room facilities etc. Fifth item: Warm up before the race. If possible, it helps to run out and back from the finish line so you'll have a feel for what it will look like when you are finishing a race. This can be an advantage if there is a turn or a surprise uphill or downhill finish. Also you can check out and see if the last mile is marked. Every 5K should have a marker at the three-mile mark, every 10K should have a marker at the six-mile mark, but some do not. It helps to know, especially if you like to kick to the finish from those marks. Sixth item: Line up in the proper position. It is unfortunate when young children running their first race or casual overweight runners line up on the front row of the race. The children are endangering themselves and the nonracers are causing a problem as so many people have to pass them. It is better to line up further back in the crowd and pass people during a race than to have 90 percent of the crowd pass you. Seventh item: Enjoy the race, finish it, and partake of the post-race festivities and amenities. Running and racing are supposed to be fun. Talking to people after the race, cooling down with old friends or new acquaintances, watching the awards ceremony, and cheering your friends and maybe winning an award yourself are always fun. Here's hoping we will see you at some races. My recovery from our car accident has been much slower than expected, but we hope to be out there soon.

Team Health Shoppe Wins Colonial 70 Relay By Dave Alderman For the 12 years that Missie Gregory has been running, she had not participated in a team relay. That all changed in September when she and husband Tim joined Jeff Colfer, Mark Hickey, Jeff Colfer Jr., and myself to lead Knoxville's Team Health Shoppe to a first place overall finish in the Colonial 70 Relay. Averaging a 7:04 per mile pace, Team Health Shoppe set a new course record as they finished in 9:06:54. Second place went to Buns on the Run with a time of 9:30:01. The six person team relay event, now in its second year, features a 77 mile course which begins in Hanover, VA and takes runners through the wine country of Virginia before ending at Jamestown Beach Park in Williamsburg, VA. “Running your hardest and having the van pulled off the side of road with your teammates cheering you on was fabulous”, said Missie Gregory, who was the team's lead-off runner. “I also enjoyed watching my teammates race and cheering them on!” Only a few seconds behind the lead runner at the first exchange point, Gregory handed off to Mark Hickey

who blistered the next 5.3 miles at a 6:29 pace to give Team Health Shoppe a lead it would maintain for the remainder of the race. “This is a great relay race for beginning or seasoned racing teams”, said team captain Jeff Colfer. “We were able to assemble a team from our Knoxville, TN based Health Shoppe running team and all but one were masters (over 40). And we were very fortunate to have Kumi Alderman as our driver.” “Race organizers Kirk and Brian did a great job laying out a scenic course on two-lane highways between Hanover and Williamsburg. Many of the second half miles were on greenway, providing optimum safety and scenic pathways for runners. Even the 4:30 am race start, which was at first met with a bunch of groaning, turned out to be an exciting component of the race. The sight of dozens of runners sporting reflective vests and high-performance running headlamps under a moon-lit inflatable start-line filled us all with excitement and anticipation.” The Colonial 70 and Colonial 200 team relays are sponsored by the Palmetto Group LLC. Complete results for both races are posted at www.colonial200.com.

Running Through the Age Groups Advantages of Group Training In writing this column fresh off some seriously trying emotional times, I have come to appreciate more than ever the benefits I have reaped from training with my group, the Without Limits Endurance Team in Wilmington, NC. I have missed writing the last couple of months primarily because we are still settling my mother's estate, and on July 27 we auctioned off all of my parents' personal belongings - save a few select items - from their house. This was really tough as this was the place I grew up, it was all I knew for the first half of my life, and I felt like I was ripping my parents' lives apart. We really had no choice but to have the auction; we could never even hope to be able to find places for all the stuff, and the house itself is way too much for us, but it was still tough to let things go. We have since put the house on the market, concluding what has been an entire year of emotional upheaval for my husband and me. I have had wonderful support from my terrific and fun-loving husband, but that has been further boosted by the camaraderie I have with training partners and coaches from Without Limits. Without Limits was started in Wilmington several years ago as a grass roots organization with one “head coach,” a really gifted young male runner from Michigan by the name of Tom Clifford, and a few dedicated members of the community who really wanted to improve their running. This began with a weekly track workout and other sessions sprinkled throughout the week. I joined the group early but could only train for about a month due to problems with my heels, but I have since (finally, injury free) been able to train with them for almost a year. Fast forward to the fall of 2012 when I started my campaign to “get back to my running roots” in the wake of the loss of my mother. The group has now grown to at least five coaches and personal trainers, plus runners and triathletes. Tom Clifford has since married his long-time sweetheart, Annette, and the two of them make a wonderful team running Without Limits. Now, the workouts are far more organized, with sessions every day of the week so you can train as little or as often as possible. The coaches have set the runners up

with an online training log. which serves as both a log and a mode for communicating workouts to coaches. There is an online calendar for workouts and races, as well as a comprehensive website complete with motivational articles, race results and a blog. See http://coaching.iamwithoutlimits.com. I am training to run my first marathon after more than 15 years. My workout plan has me training with the group for “road practice” every Tuesday night and “track practice” every Friday morning. The remainder of the week consists of a weekend long run (which can be done alone or with members of the group), and some filler runs and cross training mixed in on other days. Even with over 30 years' experience as a runner, I have found it invaluable to have a coach and sessions with a group. One amazing phenomenon is the ability to run much faster with a group at the same perceived effort as a much slower run alone. For example, my usual “easy warm-up pace” is around 10 minutes per mile, but the other day, both my warm-up and cool-down paces were in the 9:40 per mile range. A few weeks ago, we did a workout consisting of 5 x 1200 meters at about a 7:40 pace. Last week, we did a 3mile tempo at 7:50 pace. Neither of these were workouts I could have done alone! Somehow, the magic of running with other runners at a similar level just helps it happen. Plus, it is nice to have a coach constantly watching and helping tweak your form during workouts. In my case, my upper body tends to get sloppy as I become tired in a sustained effort. My coach is good about pointing this out and helps correct it so I can recognize when it happens and what it feels like to correct it on the run. There are other amazing things about Without Limits. One is that you are never

at a loss for something to do. If there's not a workout scheduled for a particular time, you can bet there's a social event. The group hosts parties several times throughout the course of the year and organizes trips to destination races all over the country. They are even organizing a trip to the Inca Trail Marathon, in Peru, in summer 2014! The coaches and runner members of this group have really big hearts and are always helping selflessly when a member is in need. One recent example involved a trip to Idaho for an Ironman Triathlon event. The athlete who organized the trip was ready to go when her father fell ill and she was forced to cancel her trip. The others who went, including one of the coaches, decided to dedicate the trip to the team member who had to stay home. When they returned, they presented her with a huge framed T-shirt from the event, complete with the coach's finisher medal, and signed by the group. It was beautiful, and I was able to bear witness to its presentation after one of our morning track workouts. Running is typically considered a solitary

sport, with the challenge borne in going the distance on one's own two feet and without the benefit of a team. Being a bit of an individualist, this is what drew me to the sport so many years ago. I continue to learn things about running, and one valuable lesson my teammates have taught me is that we are really in the sport together, and together we can excel beyond individual limitations. As it goes in running, so it goes in life. We are not alone, and indeed cannot deal alone with everything life hands us. There are times, whether they be that tough hill workout, that brutal track workout, or even the loss of a loved one, where having a group of friends to run with can make a difference. I urge you, wherever you run, to find a group to join at least once per week. If there is no group in your area and you have any running experience at all, then I urge you to start a group. It doesn't have to be anything serious or competition-oriented. It can be through your local running club. It's amazing what a little bit of structure and camaraderie can do for your training and your life. Happy Running!

Running Journal • November 2013

Own your run or bike ride and soothe your soul It was a beautiful Sunday morning on one of Raleigh's newest greenway trails, a gorgeous 27-mile paved stretch that winds along the Neuse River, through wetlands, forests and fields. It is a segment of the North Carolina Mountainsto-Sea Trail, where hiking paths can take you off into the wilderness or to the banks of the river where you can launch your kayak or canoe, or sit on the bank with a fishing pole and while away the hours. On clear, sunny, early-fall days, the still-green leaves look especially bright against the clear, blue sky, like emeralds set next to sapphires. I enjoy riding the greenway on my ancient mountain bike, a 35-pound, 20year old hulk, complete with fat knobby tires and a comfy seat. When I am on my mountain bike, I have no need for speed, which is a good thing. That bike has no need for speed either, and you might as well enjoy the ride, because if you go more than a few miles, you must plan to be out there awhile. I remember training for a triathlon on my mountain bike. Even with smooth tires, it was no easy feat hauling that devil over the hilly terrain that makes up most of the Greater Raleigh area. So far, on the steepest hills, I have gotten down to 4 miles per hour, but haven't reached the tipping point yet. The same goes for running. My friend Robyn Smith quoted a local runner who told her “you have to own your run; don't let your run own you.” So run at whatever pace suits you. Don't feel guilty when you take it easy. While hard-core training leads to mental strength, endurance, and speed, running for exercise and enjoyment has its benefits, too. Have you noticed the traffic lately? If you live in a town of any size, you can sense society's urgency in getting around. In this age of mobile technology, a 24-7 news cycle, and more traffic lanes on highways, we are the hurry-and-get-there generation. Around the nation, state legislatures are raising the maximum highway speed to 75 mph. After spending day after day fighting impatient drivers, dodging speeding vehicles on the highways, rushing between appointments, and generally speeding

through life, for me there is nothing better than spending time slowly jogging the trails and greenways; cruising on a mountain bike; or simply going for a walk. It may sound boring, but it's not. It may feel like breaking training, but it is not. Some beneficial activities will soothe

breathing, the action of our lungs at work, taking in air, and pushing it out; to feel the sensations in our arms and hands; to visualize our muscles at work; to absorb the environment, listening to the rustling of the leaves on the trees, birds, and even the sound of our own breathing; to lose ourselves in all of our senses. Don't suck wind. Just breathe. Sometimes when I try to run hard, especially up a hill, I start panting and sucking wind. That extra effort hurts, and it can really beat me up. Of course, that is supposed to happen during speed bursts or hill work. Sucking it up and sucking the wind, makes our lungs stronger. But on those longer training runs, when I need to endure for an hour or two and am unwill-

your soul and scratch your itch to exercise without pain. It's all good. Meditate to free your mind. While running, I often listen to my favorite play list or try to work out the problems that affect my professional life, or family, or relationships when I would rather be resting my mind. Meditation experts remind us to find a level of awareness that puts us at ease when we run; to try focusing on how each footfall feels; to focus on

in Raleigh where I encountered a friend who is a strong ultra marathoner. She was walking the entire five-mile course - with a big smile on her face. Rough it. So you don't feel the need for speed? Take your game to the woods and hit the trails. Stepping over roots and around boulders forces you to slow down and maintain your focus. It also forces you to engage your core and works your entire body, including your brain. Run nekked. I mean take off your watch. Leave the Garmin at home. No iPod, no phone, no nothing. Without worrying about the time, you will stay in the moment and focus on how your body feels (see “meditation” above). On many runs, I have been happily surprised at how much better I perform - and feel - when I'm not worried about the time. Go longer. Some ultra marathon runners I know swear by those 50 or 100 mile excursions, because they like running at a slower pace. Speedy runners who can cover a 5K in 15 minutes would be hard pressed to run 100 miles at that kind of pace. The ultra runners are fond of saying “if you can't go fast; go long.” Power-hike those hills. I have a mantra that helps my resolve on hills, and it goes like this: “Running up hills makes your butt look cute.” Walking works too. Unless I am running a specific hill workout, I usually walk the steepest inclines. Pumping my arms for power and marching with purpose keeps me from feeling like a failure, and instead of wimping out on those hills, I power-hike them. Just try it; you'll never meet a hill you cannot hike. Call it what you'd like. Life in the slow lane. Taking the scenic route. It doesn't matter. What does matter is you are outside enjoying the world around you, exercising and staying healthy. On a recent gorgeous day on the trails on my mountain bike, I stopped struggling to keep up with my friends on faster road bikes, and I let them sail off until they were completely out of sight. I stopped sweating; stopped huffing and puffing. I changed the gear setting, slowed down, breathed, and smelled the fragrant woodsy aromas of early fall. I sipped water. I scoped the woods to look for deer. I listened to the birds. I watched a pair of dogs splashing in the river. I owned my bike ride. Next time, I will pack a picnic and stay all day.

ing to quit, I slow down, check my breathing, and proceed at a more forgiving pace. Giving myself permission to slow down keeps me running longer. Just say no. Face it. Sometimes even the strongest runners aren't feeling it. There have been days I wanted to run with friends during training or in races, but could not keep up their pace. Instead of struggling along and hating it, I just Teri Saylor lives, works, runs and bikes in slowed down and covered the course a Raleigh, N.C. Get in touch with her at few steps behind them.

Incentive Running for All Ages – Kentucky State Records By BUCK JONES Help Kentucky Runners!! Please let me know you want the Kentucky State Records to continue. The initial version of the USA Track & Field (USATF) Kentucky State Records is now on the following website: http://www.staterunningrecords.com Early in 2013 I decided to add Kentucky to the three states that I have been keeping state road racing records under the USA Track & Field (USATF) banner. I had started with Alabama, my home state, back in the late 1980s and added Tennessee and Mississippi later on. I approached Andy Carr at USATF Headquarters in Atlanta to get the go ahead and also contacted the Kentucky USATF State Office with its president Frank Newton for their approval. After adding Mississippi to the state records website around three years ago, I was a little surprised at how long it took to get the word around the state for clubs, race director,s and runners to get onboard with the records. However within several months of contacting clubs and others in the running community, the records began catching on and e-mails from runners began flowing in after races. One of the biggest hurdles for runners to strive for state records was a shortage of races with course certifications. Word needed to be spread to both runners and race directors that USATF course certifications is the primary criteria for state record eligibility. I have noted by the second year of keeping Mississippi state records that the course certifications showed a significant increase in numbers. I believed this was happening for a couple of reasons. One reason being runners requesting race directors in their area of the state to get the local courses certified. Another reason being runners starting to bypass uncertified races and pinpointing those races around the state that had existing course certifications and were record eligible 2 9T H

Some of my efforts were to inform many of the race directors and clubs the benefits of increased participation that could come from getting their race course certified. One of the Mississippi race directors took this all to heart and began both certifying existing races in his area and also creating new races with new distances and course certifications. Leonard Vergunst, of the Gulf Coast Running Club out of Gulfport, MS, has been a leader in increasing certified race courses in Mississippi. His hard work in promoting these races and state records has enticed a lot of new runners to go for age records. I am currently scanning race results online from several Louisville and Lexington certified 5K, 10K, 10 mile, Half Marathon, and marathon races to find the best times at each individual age. This process will be ongoing for the next few months, the time it will take to review all race results that I can find online from Kentucky races that were conducted on USATF certified courses. I will add other distances that have course certifications as I have time. Other possibilities that are noted in the USATF list of Kentucky certified courses include the 1 mile, 2 mile, 4K, and 8K distances. One of the main problems I will have is getting permission from the race directors to ask the timing companies for help in retrieving birth dates for the runners that emerge with the top times. Birth dates are required to validate state records. Hometowns or place of residence is required to establish that the runners reside in Kentucky, since only Kentucky residents are eligible for state records. In addition, only USA citizens are also eligible. I will list foreign runners below the record holder for any given age with an asterisk denoting that they have the best time at a given age but do not hold the state record. At some point in the near future I would like to get a volunteer from all running clubs to help me with runner's informa-

tion in future races. As the records evolve and the data base of runner's information grows, I will not have to rely on as much help from said volunteer since the better runners will most likely establish multiple records. The Following are the Rules for Kentucky State Records - All records will be derived from only USATF certified course/races run within the state of Kentucky - Place of residence or hometown in Kentucky is required. Only residents of Kentucky will be eligible for state records. - Birth dates are required to validate state records. This validates the age of the runner on race day. All birth dates will not be displayed for privacy issues but are still required for records to be ratified. On the state records website the words “On File” will be listed in the birth date column indicating the Record Keeper has the required birth date. - Only USA citizens are eligible. Faster times by foreign citizens will be noted with an asterisk but are not eligible for a state record. - The rules set up are the same as those that have been in place for many years in Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennessee. - There will be a state record for each individual age. - Gun times are used for state records when available as mandated by the USATF from races listing both gun and chip times. Current Record Holders I am only about five months into researching old results from certified races so I still have a lot of work to catch up. Considering where I am at with research, the runners with the most Kentucky State Records at this point are Jef Scott on the men's side with 21 state records and Mig Temple on the women's side with 17. These numbers could change according to how my research

Buck Jones goes, the availability of older certified results, and increased help from runners and clubs in Kentucky in the future. I will be glad to discuss the Kentucky State Records by phone or e-Mail. Bear in mind if you are looking for your name to be listed with a best time at a given age that it will take me some time to scan as many certified race results as I can find on the Internet. Please alert me to any past performances that were run on certified courses and that should be considered for state records. Those performances will be considered more quickly if the runner can provide some means of verifying the race results and course certification at the time of the race.

In the 40-mile race, Thomas Chapin (5:39:15) set a new course record. Lisa Luyet (8:46:01) was the first female. In his first 50K, Brock Hime (3:45:40) missed the course record by a little over three minutes. Angela Conley (4:49:59) lowered the course record by almost 30 (25:06), which completed the top 3 male minutes. and female positions. In addition to the race and walk, services for wellness health screen checks, health information booths, and recovery stations By were available for participants, volunNicholas Norfolk teers, and race supporters. All proceeds benefited the Wellness Program at the Birch Tree Communities, Inc. The total number of finishers was 154 with 79 runners and 75 walkers.

From Nighttime 5K to Ultra Runs This edition features a good sample of the types of races in Arkansas. If you like night races, be sure to check out the YMCA Night Flight 5K and the Afterglow 5K. The other two 5Ks mentioned are for good causes. The communities rallied by each race by participating in the race or volunteering. The only 20K in the Arkansas Grand Prix Series, and one of few in Arkansas, had a standout year. Finally, for those that like to escape to the trails, the Bartlett Park Ultras is for you. YMCA Night Flight 5K

John Harrison gets encouragement at YMCA Night Flight 5K

The YMCA of Metropolitan Little Rock had its fourth annual race on Sept. 13. The course loops within the Lakewood Property Owners Association Park complex. In the past, the race has been in mid-August. As a result of having it a month later, participants enjoyed cooler temperatures. Night races always present the challenge of dealing with darkness. It's one of the reasons people are drawn to them. The YMCA was prepared by providing huge lights. Some wore headlamps to light their own paths. With the race being on Friday, I know a few who ran in races the following day. Chet Howland (17:58) and Missy Collins (25:44) were overall male and female winners.

Birch Tree Communities, Inc. wanted to find a way to focus on improving health needs while also encouraging the community to help support individuals with mental health issues. A race and a walk satisfied both objectives and the idea became a reality Sept. 14. The race started and finished outside one of the Birch Tree Communities, Inc. facilities in Benton. With the exception of a hill after the first mile, the course was relatively flat. Jacob Wells (20:48) was the first finisher. He held off Sara Claycomb (20:58), as she closed in on him at the end. He won his age group at the YMCA Night Flight 5K, but this time he claimed the top spot. Nicole Hobbs (21:54) was the third finisher and second female. The next three finishers were Anthony Lowrey (22:48), Scott Claycomb (23:44), and Sara Hanks

Arkansas 20K The Grand Prix season is coming to a close. By the time this comes, only one race will remain. It will be the Spa 10K held in Hot Springs. The final stretch of races in the series are all 10K and above. That's how it was planned, but Mother Nature had her own agenda for the Chile Pepper Cross Country Festival, which is the next Grand Prix race following the Arkansas 20K. Let's just say it was a downpour of fun. It rained the night before in Benton, but not on race day. Staying consistent with the cooler temperatures as the other races, the Arkansas 20K attracted its largest numbers of finishers in years. This was not relatively flat as most races are prone to using as a descriptor. The hill that runners sprint down in the beginning is the same one that has to be climbed on the return. Right before the turnaround is a good place to see runners. I saw the leaders breeze by never relinquishing their positions. Imari Dellimore (1:14:07) won for the fourth time in the Grand Prix series. Leah Thorvilson (1:17:19) was the second finisher, increasing her Arkansas 20K win total to five in a row. Next year, it will be a State Championship Race.

Bartlett Park Ultras Trail runners ran this race in Bartlett, TN, for the final time on Sept. 14. After seven years, the race, which allowed you to choose between 50K, 40 miles, or 50 miles would come to an end. The race was the third in Ultra Trail Series administered by the Arkansas Ultra Running Association, which means there is a usually a large Arkansas contingent. The course looped through Nesbit Park's trails. Every runner ran the same loops unless they were going beyond 50K. Aid stations with superb volunteers were found on the course. However, you could have your own personal aid station, since Afterglow 5K you ran past your car at the end of each Over a thousand people converged in loop. Batesville Sept. 21 to run a race like the Shannon McFarland (7:48:04) and town has never witnessed.

Running Psychology The Process All too often runners get caught up in race times, race finish places, and the pursuit of achieving the â&#x20AC;&#x153;perfect race.â&#x20AC;? There is pressure from within to run faster and faster and finish higher and higher in age group classifications. Sure, you need goals and goal setting is useful to improve performance, but do you ever lose sight of the actual process that allows you to achieve your running goals and perform up to your potential? Do you look too much at the outcome and not enough at the road that can lead you to the outcome? Constantly focusing on results and â&#x20AC;&#x153;timesâ&#x20AC;? can mean extreme internal pressure that you actually place on yourself. This internal pressure can often lead to overtraining, high levels of anxiety, and very often a lower level of pleasure from your running. You always feel like you have to mentally try harder, when in fact you may actually run better if you try less. You get so hung up on making running a â&#x20AC;&#x153;life or deathâ&#x20AC;? event that you begin to fear running poorly and your mind gets full of worry and negative thoughts. Instead of trusting your training and preparation you begin to doubt yourself, which results in lowered confidence. Instead of simply going out and letting yourself run to the best of your ability, you begin to work against yourself mentally. In many cases a vicious cycle of â&#x20AC;&#x153;nothing is good enoughâ&#x20AC;? begins to take hold. Instead of enjoying a good performance you think you could have done even better and immediately put tremendous pressure on yourself about performing even better the next time out. Other people may begin to place certain performance expectations on you and you internalize these. You begin to try to live up to some ideal that others set for you, instead of just seeking to personally do your absolute best in your running and enjoying your own personal achievements. You might even start to find yourself running for others instead of yourself. Running may begin to resemble a form of work and not a fun and joyful experience that it once was. You put a lot of time into your running. Why not take pressure off of yourself and not put pressure on yourself? By taking pressure off of yourself you may begin to realize that you will perform better! So instead of focusing so much on the result, begin to focus more on the process of your running and training. Go back to

your core running belief and just why you started to run and race in the first place. While your belief system is yours alone, there may be some common ideas that are shared by many runners in an effort to run their best and enjoy running to the fullest extent. The real key to being a successful runner, both in terms of performance and enjoyment, is to focus on the things you can control and that is your own selfimprovement. It's the process of improving that will ultimately lead to peak running performance. Simply work to better yourself as a runner each day, even if it's a very little thing, like a bit more stretching or a healthier lunch. You can't control your competitor's training or the expectations other people have for you, but you can control your effort and take pride in the fact you have prepared to the best of your ability. Always remember that running should be an enjoyable activity. Hard training can be fun when you approach it with the attitude that hard training will help you achieve personal running goals. Think of how good it feels and what a sense of personal achievement you have when you reach a running goal. Personal running goals can come in many forms, from simply an increase in weekly mileage all the way up to time or place in a specific race. It's not just achieving the goal that makes you so happy, it's also the process you had to go through to reach the goal that makes you happy! Often, it's not the destination that brings you joy; it's the journey to the destination that is special. By learning to love the process you begin to internalize the values of dedication, sacrifice, and downright hard work. Sure there will be a â&#x20AC;&#x153;bumps in the roadâ&#x20AC;? and a lot of ups and downs along the way, but running your best will mean sticking to your training plan over the long haul and being able to bounce back from hard times and disappointment. But running

Running Journal â&#x20AC;˘ November 2013 your personal best also means enjoying the good experiences in running and feeling a sense of pride when you work hard and achieve your goals. In no way am I saying striving to run new personal best times and winning races is not important. However, the constant focus on just performance times or â&#x20AC;&#x153;winningâ&#x20AC;? can undermine your ability to run freely and truly enjoy running. You tend to perform your best in all aspects of life when you are having fun. Don't make running a chore. Enjoy the small things in running, like seeing a beautiful sunrise or sunset, the peacefulness of a wooded trail, or the quiet time to think that running provides. You will indeed run your best when you enjoy running. Appreciate all the little things running offers you and how it improves your life. Be wary of getting too caught up in simple objective performance

measures, like times and places. Improved race times and finish places will come with a commitment to the process and a commitment to loving and appreciating your ability to go out everyday and run. Be sure to enjoy the journey, not just the arrival at the destination. When you reach a running goal of any type, take time to enjoy and celebrate your accomplishment, but also take time to go back and reflect on the journey to the goal. Years from now you may actually recall more about the journey than the achievement. Be sure to enjoy the trip!

Afterglow 5K contâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d from page 18 Chamber of Commerce in order to provide revenue to keep the White River Water Carnival free. Additionally, it gave people something to do after the carnival. With the number of people who came out, it wouldn't surprise me if the race returned next year. It was something good and different to do is what I heard from participants. Watching the sea of lights blinking, neon colored outfits, and glowing gear was incredible. The darkness masked the hills on the course, but the glow zones kept people engaged. Unlike other themed races, this race was on a USATF certified course and it was chip timed. Tyler Webb (18:08) and Logan Bishop (20:33) were overall male and female winners. After the race, there was a party that went into the early morning. The race was more of a nighttime experience.

Holman, the Open Arms Shelter Advisory Board organized the event. Unlike the Arkansas 20K or the Afterglow 5K, this race truly is flat. The Historic Lonoke Train Depot served as the start and finish. There was an option to make the race a little more interesting by running with a yellow ribbon. The ribbon gave volunteers dressed as Snoopy and Woodstock permission to relieve you of your ribbon. It's worth the risk. If you cross the finish with your ribbon, you receive a free pumpkin.

Both overall male and female winners were from Cabot. Kris White (19:13) and Samantha Nickell (20:48) claimed the top spots. After the 5K a One-Mile Family Trot encouraged the entire family to get active. Then, it was time to visit the pumpkin patch. The pumpkins came in different shapes, colors, and sizes. It was a great way to spend the first Saturday of fall. Nicholas L. Norfolk is president of the Little Rock Roadrunners Club. He frequently travels to races as a "running ambassador."

Running Through the Bluegrass The Cycles of Running Running is all about circles and cycles, repetition and routine. No one factor is as consistently successful as consistency. In fact, lifetime mileage often talked about as part of a runner's peak ability. There's even a 100K club for those who, like Amby Burfoot, have logged six-digit mileage over the years. My running career is nowhere near that figure. Since 2006, I'm at maybe 15,000. After being injured, I've been training consistently for nearly three years, although nowhere near my previous volume. Because, while running regularity is key to racing success, that doesn't always line up with real life. But, like in real life, running follows cycles. Lots of cycles -- training cycles, seasonal cycles, work cycles, holiday cycles. You get the idea. Sometimes, those cycles bring you back where you started. In September, I signed up for the Gaslight 5K, a nice 500-person race close to my house. It's also the first race I ever ran, seven years ago. When I ran Gaslight in 2006, I had just completed the couch-to-5k plan. I was still in college, I had only marginally been an athlete of any sort, and I thought a mile was an infinitely long way to run. That year, my goal was to run the 5K under 30 minutes. I really had no idea how I might do because I hadn't actually tried to run three miles nonstop yet. I picked it because it was a nice, round number. I don't think I even had a Timex watch, let alone a Garmin. It rained, of course. I overdressed. I didn't know anything about nutrition or bibs or racing etiquette. I got passed by children, by jogging strollers, by people 50 years my senior. I don't remember how I felt during the race. Probably bad. But what I can tell you is how darn excited I was when I crossed the line. In 27 minutes. Suddenly, I went from not knowing if I could finish to thinking I was a rock star. I seriously ran home, changed clothes and went back for the awards because I thought I might have won something. I didn't. Undeterred, I dropped three minutes in the next three months and kept improving. I got hurt in 2010 - a stress fracture/hamstring strain combo, if you've missed previous columns -- that downward slope of improvement stopped. In fact, since my "comeback" began, I was really having trouble getting under 21 minutes. I also wasn't doing any speedwork, which gener-

ally doesn't help your 5k time. This summer, I embarked on a 12-week 5k training plan, but ended up not running my goal race. Gaslight was about six weeks later, and I had dropped the short speedwork for marathon training.I figured I'd run Gaslight this year in about 20:30, what I ran at another race in June. I went out a little fast with a nice downhill first half-mile, fell a little flat in mile two but caught another woman, then ran strong the third mile and caught another woman at the three-mile mark. At just past three miles, I could see the clock. And it was still in the 19s! Even red-lining the last tenth, I couldn't get under 20, but I was close. Seven years. Seven minutes. Many cycles, many miles. Tracy Harris is a runner and writer in Louisville, KY. She keep coming back to the marathon, although some days she's not sure why.

Learning from the Young Guns

www.running.net

My First Marathon I have a confession to make: I've coached marathon runners for years, but until the middle of September I had never actually run a marathon. In fact, I'd never run more than 21 miles at a time. My competitive background was in shorter distances, as I was a track runner who dabbled in some road racing and cross-country. My competitive career was cut short by a hip injury before I had a chance to test the waters of the longer distances. But when one door closes another opens and here I am doing what I love, coaching. Having trained and competed seriously for nearly a decade, and with my best days behind me, I had nothing on my running bucket list, least of which was a marathon. That changed when I was at the Boston marathon in April, and not entirely for the reason you may think. I had never been to the Boston Marathon before I made the trip this year as ZAP had athletes racing the 5K the day before and one athlete running the marathon. Additionally, I had several coaching clients racing the marathon on Monday. On Patriots Day I posted up at the top of Heartbreak Hill five miles from the finish. I watched the elites go by and gave Alissa, the ZAP athlete running, a cheer as she ran by. I spent the next two hours cheering on runners I coached as well as others I knew. There was a college student standing across the street (his blood alcohol level is tangential to the story) and the entire time I was there he was cheering, high fiving, patting people on the back, and telling everyone he could that “you got this.” This inebriated college student showed me what this race was: a 26.2 mile celebration of our sport. And it was awesome. Jason Hartman ran by all alone as the first American male, sending the crowd into a frenzy, and I got goose bumps. When the Wounded Warrior Project Soldiers ran by in full combat gear I teared up. I had to be part of this someday. In the days that followed, as I sat morbidly glued to the television, tracking every detail with profound sadness, I knew that it needed to be in 2014. Fast forward to September 15 and the Erie Marathon where ZAP co-founder Zika Rea and I were jogging toward the

start line in the dark questioning our very sanity. The day before on our shakeout jog I was full of energy, harkening back to my competition days where I would block out every other thought in the world, focusing only the excitement of the race. I had to remind myself this was not a 5K, this was a marathon, and I needed to stay within myself. I couldn't help but feel the excitement; competition was the moment I always relished, putting all that hard training nobody saw on full display. This would be different though, for both Zika and I, two former elite athletes hoping our career ending injuries would hold up against the rigors of 26.2 miles on pavement. In the dawn of marathon morning the excitement dissipated and the anxiety set in - what on earth was I doing standing on the start line of a marathon? If you would have told me six months ago I would be here, four gels in my back

pocket, finding my place among the crowd, I would have said you were insane! As the gun went off I reminded myself to treat it like the start of a long run, to spend the first few miles easing into things. Amidst the chaos of the opening miles I was able to settle into a good rhythm and execute my plan. I knew from looking at the results from prior years if I executed well I would probably finish in the top 30-40, and to my shock I was sitting in what I estimated to be well over 200th place at 5K! I preach patience to my marathon runners constantly, especially at the beginning because I know going out too hard is a common mistake. Despite that, I couldn't believe how many people were sprinting in and out of traffic and breathing heavily in the first few miles. The name of the game is to use as little energy as possible to get where you're going -- hit the cruise control button and take your foot off the gas. I tried my best to do that, although my hip began to bother me and I ended up running fairly unevenly from mile to mile. So much for heeding my own advice. By mile 18 my hip flexors were as tight as banjo strings and my legs ached with every step, but I knew I could still change gears if I needed to. I started doing the math every mile after 15, cal-

culating what pace I would need to qualify, and with four miles to go I knew I needed to move. I called upon my competitive instincts one more time, put my foot on the accelerator and poured by people all the way to the finish line. My patience had paid off and when I crossed the line the clock revealed a Boston Qualifier. Zika crossed the line 20 minutes later, well under her qualifier, and although my body was cursing every step I had taken, we were both excited to be part of the celebration in April that will be so much more than simply a celebration of running.
