Lots of Good Stuff in This Issue

By BRUCE MORRISON, Publisher bruce.morrison@running.net

Explanations and thoughts …

Mary Marcia Brown has two columns in the current (July) issue of Running Journal because we at Running Journal made a substantial goof on last month's column, thus we're repeating it, plus her new column.

In the June issue (last month), we published new information in the top half of the column but repeated old information in the bottom half. That was a doozy but innocently done and not caught by your publisher's usual eagle eye editing. We corrected it in the digital version but it was too late on the mailed edition. You can read the corrected version this month plus the new column.

Good news: Scott Ludwig, widely respected runner and author, will be writing on a regular basis in Running Journal - and his first “Distance Memories” column is in this month's issue.

Scott, a Georgia resident and president of the Darkside Running Club, began his current running streak on Nov. 30, 1978, has run over 135,000 miles, and is 28th on the United States Running Streak active list. He is the author of seven books, five about running.

A University of Florida graduate who has run 201 marathons, 50 ultras, and more than 800 races, he married Cindy Johnson in June 1977 and they have two sons, Justin and Joshua.

Scott is the founder and former race director of the Peachtree City 50/25K.

Learning from the Young Guns Summer in the South Growing up in the Midwest I was accustomed to harsh winters, and as a runner the weather could be particularly cruel. I still tell stories from my younger, foolish days of running in shorts through the sub-freezing temperatures of central Indiana. I figured it made me tough. And if I'm being honest I still do. Somehow that stupidity feels venerable in retrospect. Regardless, this calloused Indiana boy thoroughly enjoyed his time at Arizona State with its balmy desert winters. Just as everyone touts his or her regional pride when living in a new part of the country, I made sure I didn't lose my Indiana toughness out west. And now I tell the dramatic stories of grueling long runs under the searing summer skies of Arizona. Of course here in the south we are entering the heart of summer, and it's time for us to work on our toughness in the stifling heat of the next few months. I am only half joking. There actually is evidence suggesting heat acclimation can have performance benefits in the same way (if not by the same mechanisms) as altitude training, even in cooler weather.

Call it toughness, call it increased blood volume and glycogen use efficiency, but heat can be your friend if you take proper preparations this summer.

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! Obviously.

But there are aspects of hydration that get overlooked and have a big impact on your performances. If you are starting your runs in the morning, which I strongly suggest in the summer, weigh yourself before and after your run to get an idea of how much water weight you are losing. Body weight losses of two percent or more can have dramatic impacts on your performance, and if you aren't hydrating during the summer you are probably losing three-four percent or more. Finding out how much weight you're losing helps determine your sweat rate, and an ideal replenishment strategy (replace 1 lb of weight loss with 16 ounces of fluid) to stay within that two percent window. If your weight is significantly lower from one morning to the next I would advise taking the day off from running and making sure you focus on rehydrating before you get back to training.

Checking your morning weight is a good strategy for monitoring hydration, as is aiming for urine with a light yellow hue. Maintaining proper hydration during

By Ryan Warrenburg, ZAP Fitness

exercise (and consequently proper temperature regulation, blood plasma levels, and sweat rate) means more than just drinking water. In the Arizona summer I would lose water weight during runs, but my skin and clothing were bone dry at the end of the run. I'm sure many of you have experienced that nice salt encrusted forehead at the end of a hot run. The good news is that doesn't mean your body is devoid of water, it means you need to take in electrolytes, primarily sodium, as you hydrate in order to replace all that salt stuck on your body.

In addition to flushing out water and sodium on a hot day your body also increases the rate at which it uses muscle glycogen. Caloric replacement is particularly important during longer training sessions (over an hour) and in preparation for longer races such as the half marathon and marathon. Utilizing a sports drink that replaces electrolytes and glucose is ideal for hydrating before and after exercise. I don't want to get side tracked by post run nutrition (as I'll assume everyone read my September article on recovery), but its importance is amplified during the heat of the summer when the body is utilizing more glucose and fluid during the run.

I understand the cringe-inducing statement I'm about to make, but utilizing the treadmill is better than putting in a run during the middle of a hot summer afternoon. In extreme heat most people will be unable to replace the three-plus pints of fluid that can be lost per hour of exercise.

Additionally, battling those conditions day after day can dramatically decrease performance and prevent recovery day to day. Getting in the air-conditioned gym, while not the shorts-in-sub-freezing-temperature tough guy stupid option, may occasionally be the most prudent choice.

Additionally, if your long runs are over two hours and you're struggling late in

your runs try starting or finishing the run indoors on a treadmill. Supplementing some running with cross training is also a good way to acclimate to the heat and build your aerobic volume during a base building phase of training.

If you are preparing for summer racing, heat acclimation is critical, but minimizing heat exposure on race day will help improve performance. If you typically do a longer warm-up before races, consider shortening your routine in warmer temperatures. A 10-12 minute warm-up is plenty for the days where you break a sweat walking out the door in the morning. Taking a cooler with some ice water and towels to the race is even better.

Cooling the surface of the skin, particularly the back of the neck and wrists, has shown performance benefits with regard to lowering core temperatures and decreasing the metabolic cost of cooling your body. Chewing on crushed ice has similar effects and lowers your perceived effort in warm conditions. At the USA Track and Field Championships last June we had our ZAP athletes do their entire warm-up around the top of an indoor basketball arena to keep their core temperatures from skyrocketing.

Keep in mind it's okay if your workouts and training runs are a little slower. Focus on maintaining your effort in the summer, not your pace; you'll still reap the same fitness benefits. Otherwise you may end up overtraining or increasing the risk of injury. Embrace the challenges summer presents, and know that properly equipped, you can use the heat to take your fitness to a new level!

Running Psychology Get Back to Having Some Fun! Running means many things to many people. Exercise, competition, challenge, weight control, social interaction and travel are just a few reasons why people run.

Underlying all of the above reasons for running is the concept of having fun. There is something about running that makes it fun for us. However, all too often the fun of running is lost and it becomes just another chore or serious pursuit that provides little if any intrinsic satisfaction.

Just think about it for a few minutes.

What possesses us to go out and run in the rain and snow? Why do we go out on those cold winter mornings or those hot, sultry summer evenings and pound the pavement?

We do it because there is something that we enjoy in the activity. We are intrinsically motivated to run, or in other words we run because we love it!

Sometimes this love relationship gets tested. Races, competitions, awards, money, sponsorships can all lead us to run for some external reward. Sometimes these external rewards lead to less enjoyment from running. They may compete with our

intrinsic love of running. For most of us running is an autotelic experience.

Autotelic is a combination of two Greek words, which mean “self ” and “goal.”

Running is autotelic for most people since the goal is to run for its own sake and the experience it provides. In some cases external rewards can dampen our autotelic experience we get from running, or in other words, make running seem less fun.

Even in the most serious of competitions we can still enhance our enjoyment or, “fun”factor. While external rewards like medals, money, and recognition from oth-

become totally immersed and focused on the run. There is little if any awareness of our own body and feelings. We just seem to effortlessly float along. These special moments are often called peak experiences.

When they do occur they leave us feeling exhilarated and longing for another such experience on our next run. These are the runs we tend to remember the most and are the runs where true joy and happiness come purely from the run itself.

When a peak experience run occurs on race day we often get really great performances. Not surprisingly the mental freedom of feeling enjoyment and happiness from the pure act of running allows our body to be free and perform its best. When our mental state is at its relaxed and pleasurable best our body tends to follow. Too often we run and race well, yet not derive much pleasure from the race or workout. In other words, we didn't really have a lot of fun. By thinking about the simple things that make running fun we can all enjoy running more and probably be faster as well! That sure sounds like a good combination to me!

ers do serve to motivate us, if these are our only motivators we are missing out on the true fun of running. Take a few moments to think about the intrinsic factors that keep you running. Even in racing we feel joy from our body moving fast and free, see the scenery around us and experience the thrill of challenging our physical and mental capabilities. Just think about the real reasons you love running, whether it's training, racing, or a jog around the block!

To receive enjoyment from any activity, we don't need to win all the time, or even do well all the time, for that matter. It's all the little things that bring us much of the true enjoyment from running. The feel of a new pair of shoes, a long run on a beautiful spring day, running through newly fallen snow, sharing good conversation with a friend during an easy run, knowing you ran as hard as you possibly could have in a race, a cool drink after a run on a hot summer day, or watching the a beautiful sunset at the end of a great workout, could all, in their own special way, be fun for us. I'm sure each of you has your own special running moments that bring a smile to your face. Performance is a product of our running. Try and enjoy the little things in the process of running and you may find running becoming even more fun!

On some runs everything just seems to click. The pace is fast, yet it's amazingly comfortable. We lose track of time and

Running Journal • July, 2014

Down the Road Race Times Now and Then There used to be only one kind of timing for road races. It was simple; it was the time the runner actually crossed the finish line from when the race began with the starting of the clock -- by shout, gunshot or the simple word 'go'. Since a lot of races were started by the actual firing of a gun, it came to be called 'gun time'.

Later on when computer technology came along and became sufficiently advanced, a second kind of timing came along. It is called Chip time, Net time, or computer chip time and is the time calculated by the computer from the time a person crossed the starting line of a race until the time a person crossed the finish line of the race.

Chip time does not necessarily show the actual finish place of the person. For example a person could wait 61 minutes after the start of a 5K race, run an actual time of 76 minutes BUT since they would have run a Chip time of 15 minutes, be shown in Chip time finish order results as having run 15 minutes for the 5K which would likely be the fastest time (winning time?) in a lot of small races. I don't know if this has hap-

pened at any races yet, but the possibility is there.

That's an unlikely example -- here is a more likely one. The race starts and there are five or six likely winners up front. The start is called or shot and all but one of them take off. That one stands in place for two seconds or so and then starts. He or she puts out a little extra effort after the first mile to pull even with the others. Then he or she KNOWS that unless the other runner finishes at least two seconds ahead at the finish line, his or her Chip time will be the fastest in the race. Who will the race give

www.running.net first place to when the finish times are called out at the awards ceremony? The person who crossed the finish line first, or the person with the fastest Chip time?

The answer right now according to USATF rule 245 would be the person who crossed the finish line first. The rule says in its entirety:

results and race finish order are the rearranged computer Chip times.

This creates a dilemma for race officials.

Since I try to collect the race results for every race in South Carolina where I live, I can tell you that some races are now showing only Chip time finish order. The runner has no way to determine their Gun time (actual) finish order.

There is a lot of debate among serious runners, usually age group winners and potential winners as to whether Chip or Gun time should be used. The Cooper River Bridge Run has opted to award overall, masters, grand masters and senior grand masters division (prize money winners) by actual Gun time and Age Group Awards by computer re-arranged Chip time. This may be something we see more of in the future as races try to ensure that the runners who actually cross the finish line first, especially when money is involved, are assured that they will receive the awards they earned by their efforts. And Age Group awards, which go to serious, intense runners in many cases, but do not involve money, are awarded by Chip time.

USATF RULE 245 FINISH LINE RECORDING AND TIMING 1. Officials at the finish should record each number as the athlete completes the race, along with the athlete's finish time.

The order in which the athletes cross the finish line will be the official finish position.

2. The timers shall start their watches or timing devices at the flash/smoke of the pistol or approved apparatus or at the first moment a competitor crosses the start line, whichever happens first. False starts in road races should not be recalled.

3. The official time shall be the time elapsed between the start of the watches or timing devices resulting from an appropriate start signal and when the athlete reaches the finish line. The actual time elapsed between when an athlete reaching the starting line and finish line can be made known to the athlete, but will not be considered as official time.

Running Through the Age Groups Lessons on Running from a 1915 Ford Model T Speedster A few weeks ago, I realized a dream I have had my entire life and got hold of a 1915 Ford Model T Speedster! The car has had me so excited that I just had to find an excuse to write about it, and just the other day while I was on a run, it occurred to me just how much that little almost-100-yearold car has taught me about running, of all things!

For a little history, my Ford Model T Speedster belongs to the “brass-era” generation of cars which ran from the early 1900's through 1915. Cars of that era were adorned with tons of polished brass parts, making them prized by collectors around the world. The Model T made history in the U.S. as the first production car for the masses, but the run-of-the-mill version could be somewhat boring, with a top speed of about 35 mph and only one color option - black.

The Speedster came about in the 19-teens as a way to jazz up the standard T. It involved stripping the T down to its chassis and engine, and adding a sporty, usually colorful, racing style body along with performance-enhancing gearing that could generate speeds of 55 mph from a mere 22horsepower engine. These cars often raced up Pikes Peak, and sometimes even competed in transcontinental events! My having been a competitive runner my entire life thus makes this the perfect collector car fit for me!

Even at almost 100 years old, after having not been cranked in over three years, this car cranked on our first try and ran like she was brand new. I can't think of any car built today that could accomplish that feat.

Like many runners, this car is one tough little cookie, and she has already reminded me of several truths about running, a few of which I'll discuss here: 1. Run for the pure joy of running! In other words, keep it simple! We runners tend to get so caught up in mileage and time goals, race performances, and completing challenging workouts, that we often forget what started us running in the first place. If you ever watch a child running along the beach, you know what I am saying; running is fun, and sometimes we should be just a little more care-free! My little car just loves to run; she's so glad to be out and having fun with our neighbors and especially the neighborhood children. She seems to almost smile at everyone. Similarly, I've found so much joy lately in just running, leaving my GPS at home, and not stopping until I'm ready to stop with no particular mileage or time goal in mind. Of course, structured workouts are important to any competitive runner, but sometimes just letting yourself run free can cure feelings of

By Mary Margaret McEachern

staleness.

2. A good support team is vital, sometimes just to get cranked up in the mornings! The Model T has absolutely nothing electric on it. There are no batteries, no electric headlights, and no infernal computers and no distracting GPS screens. This, of course, means that there is no electric starter. The car has a hand crank, and it would be impossible for me to start the car without my husband who is, thankfully, strong enough to turn over the crank. Our

ners often have to juggle workouts at odd hours with regular home life, spouses and families have to sacrifice, too…so don't forget to take every opportunity to express your gratitude to your non-running family members who lovingly support your running habit!

3. Always smile and show your sunny side! This little car is the brightest of yellows, and she sports enough brass that when the sun hits her right, it almost hurts your eyes. The first time my hubby and I took a drive around the neighborhood, everybody we passed grinned ear to ear. When we got back home, we had an instant, impromptu party of curious neighbors wondering what on earth we had gotten ourselves into this time! It makes me feel really good to make others smile, and this rule applies to running as well. Next time you are out for your daily run, wave to your neighbors. At races, try to make new friends. Pay special attention to children because you never know what kind of dream you could spark from

Getting ready for the show! Here I am with my “new” Model T Speedster, on our way to our first antique auto show!

procedure has him turning the crank and me in the car with the brakes on so the car won't run him over when it starts! It is quite a sight. Likewise, my running buddies sometimes have to get me “cranked up” for those morning workouts for which it is so hard for to give up my coffee and cozy bed.

Especially on dark, cold or just downright yucky mornings, if it weren't for my running buddies, I would never take that first step. I would be remiss, of course, in not mentioning that it is equally important to have supportive family members. As run-

years, especially if we were already 100 years old! Our bodies are machines, just like cars, and it is not good for us to sit for long periods of time. I find it very easy to use my running as an excuse to be a couch potato the rest of the day, but now that I'm retired from my desk job and able to get out more, I've found that my fitness has actually increased despite no real increase in training! Things just seem to work better; there is less pain and stiffness, and my body truly is enjoying movement. Similarly, our little Model T seems to be running better and better the more we drive her. It therefore appears that the little adage, “use it or lose it”, applies regardless of age.

Additionally, before we crank the car, we make sure that it has enough oil and that the oil is clean. Similarly, we need to be cognizant of our own flexibility and strength, and get in enough stretching and cross training to keep our joints and muscles “well-oiled”.

5. Keep a good lookout! I learned quickly on my first drive that the Model T doesn't act like a modern car. There is no power steering and no power brakes. In fact, the brakes on this car only seem to slow her down, so you really have to plan ahead when trying to make a stop! Needless to say, this means you have pay keen attention to the road and other drivers, and anticipate way ahead of time in order to avoid mishaps. Similarly, runners need to keep a good lookout, which is especially important in this age of distracted driving. I've found my sense of hearing to be an invaluable resource, especially when crossing the street. I like to follow the rule of “stop, look and listen!” that my dad drilled into my head when I was young. Needless to say, I am not a fan of running with headphones but if you must, stick to the track while running with them.

Finally, don't underestimate what you can do with the right mindset! My little car just seems to be happy. With that happiness, a little determination and a lot of TLC, I could see this car lasting another 100 years and remaining in the tip-top shape she is in today. That's how I think we should all approach our running. Just because we grow older doesn't necessarily mean we should not strive to improve, and it certainly doesn't entitle us to rest on our laurels.

So, like this little 1915 car, I challenge us all to not let the grass grow under our feet.

The race is not always to the swift but to those who, like the 1915 Model T, just keep on running!

just one interaction with a child. Join a running group or club if you've not already done so, and cultivate friendships with your running buddies. They are the best!

4. Be a well-oiled machine! It goes without saying that if you don't use it, you'll lose it. We runners don't have to worry about the vagaries of a completely sedentary lifestyle, but we need to constantly remind ourselves that consistency in training has its benefits.

Not all of us are as lucky as my little car; I doubt very seriously that I or anyone else Mary Margaret can be reached at could “crank” after sitting for three solid mmmceachern@bellsouth.net

Inspired Daily Grateful for the gifts from running When training and racing are going well, it is easy to start to take it all for granted. I have been running and racing since 1986 when I began a run/walk program to earn a fitness badge in Girl Scouts and then joined the varsity cross country team later that fall when I entered seventh grade at our junior-senior high school. I have had my share of injuries over the years, especially in college where I missed more competitive seasons than I raced. Since college I have been selfcoached, which has been quite the learning experience. I have had a lot fewer injuries but I still make mistakes despite all of my trial and error, coaching education, and just “knowing better!”

In February while racing the Gasparilla 8K in Tampa, I felt a weird painful twinge in my left thigh. It hit me about halfway through the race and would not let up no matter how I changed my stride, sped up, or slowed down. I was fortunate to be able to finish and won the Masters division. I was definitely concerned about the pain but with only eight weeks to Boston, I could not afford any time off. I continued training and racing and racing and racing. Confession: I raced way too much this spring. With over ten years of coaching experience and 28 years of

training and racing experience, I should know better. Yet here I am making this major rookie mistake. I think I have become a race adrenaline junkie.

I made it through the eight weeks of training with consistent hamstring pain which also hurt quite a bit during the Boston Marathon. After Boston, I took five days of complete rest before the DeSoto 5K in Bradenton that Saturday night. I had committed to run it for my racing team, S2 Timing, and had also challenged my track team that if any of them beat me, I would treat them to frozen yogurt but if I beat them, they would treat me. They definitely had the advantage since I was just five days off a marathon. I was hesitant to race but decided to just go out comfortably and not push that hamstring at all. I ended up running

negative splits, finishing second female, and winning Masters. And let's just say that I am getting treated to frozen yogurt sometime soon! Two of my track girls set new personal bests that night, which was fantastic.

I was making excuses for why I won Masters - it was a very small race, my time was not that great compared to what I usually run, etc. I took another week off

from running to rest that hamstring but had another race commitment the following Saturday with the S2 Timing racing team (which I am incredibly grateful for!). For the Miles for Moffitt 8K in Tampa, I had the same mentality going in; I would go out comfortably and let the hamstring pain dictate my pace. I finished sixth female, second Masters, and just missed winning Masters by six seconds! I think my friend Meagan's comment was “you're ridiculous” or something like that.

I started making excuses again saying things like I only placed because I'm over 40 now, and then she stopped me. I should not make excuses for how or why I placed in these races. I should be thankful that I have been able to run all these years. I should be grateful that despite the hamstring injury and missing two weeks of training, I was able to run these two races and place in them. I am grateful for all of my amazing friends who have come into my life as a result of running, so thankful for the incredible support of my husband and family over the years, and grateful for all of the athletes I coach. I just need to remember to be grateful for the fact that I must have some running in my genetic code and that I am ABLE to train and race at the level I do. Running is a gift.

Running Fitness Maggie Miller is fast ... very fast

By Ellen Jaffe Jones

Maggie Miller, 60, has been a f ixture of the Sarasota/Bradenton running community for almost two decades.

She is a force to be reckoned with in any race, and not just her age group.

In recent years, I've seen her get Overall Female Finisher in at least one race. She's known for her modesty, encouragement and endless energy and cheerfulness. And if she sees your post on Facebook, she'll almost always “like” it or comment. When I asked how many races she had placed in, it blew me away.

How long have you been running?

“Twenty-two years, but not competitively until 1998. I've always been active and went to a gym to stay active.

Karen, my daughter used to play competitive tennis. I used to work out with her during her playing years. We still continue the mother/daughter thing now. I would always try to show her and encourage her, that if I can do it, you can too,” Maggie said.

Did you move here for her to play tennis at IMG Academies?

“Yes. Karen is 36 now, we moved here when she was 7. We came to Bradenton because there was a national tournament. Karen played 12 and under and had won a couple of rounds even though she was small. Nick Bolleteri came up to us because they gave out scholarships for a boy and girl. There were 2,000 participants, and out of all the age groups, Karen got that scholarship. They approached us and said we'll pay for all your expenses because they thought she had potential to be the top 10 in the world.

We lived at the academy at a condo. I was actually the nurse there, Nick Bolleterri's nurse, and we lived in the condo for several years. Then they put us up at a house until Karen turned professional. We decided we love it here. That was 28 years ago,” she said.

In 1998, when you started running competitively, how did you train?

"When we played tennis in New Jersey, I had friends who ran. I did one run there, but I didn't start training until I got here. I joined a running club, but mostly I did training on my own. I still do light weights, arms, legs, sit-ups, run 30-40 miles a week.

Even when I was training for a marathon, I didn't do that many miles because that's when I would get some injuries.

“I was never planning to do a marathon, but Chuck Van Duzee and Larry Larson said in October 2002, 'Oh, we're doing Jacksonville in December. You can do it,' they said. I'd never done anything longer than a half marathon. With the marathon seven weeks away, I only did two 14's and one 17-miler and that was it.

Did you place?

“I not only placed, I had negative splits and was 17th female overall and f irst in my 45-49 age group. I did a 3:29 marathon,” she said.

I've heard local runners say that you got the title of the fastest woman in the state. What is that legend all about?

“I don't know about that. (Maggie is always incredibly modest.) In 2002 I did get the RRCA (Road Runners Club of Amerca) Masters Runner of the Year. They paid for my trip to Washington, DC to get the award. In 2003 I got the Southern Master Runner of the year, and in 2004 I got the Florida Runner of the Year award. I'm sure there were people faster. You had to be nominated. It was for a combination of all the races I ran those years - from 5Ks through marathons. Joan Benoit got it one year on the Road Runners Club website. I was 48, eight years older than the beginning age of masters qualif ications. There's always someone who can beat you. There are so many nice people. If I can't run any more, I hope at least I have their friendships. I hope I can run until I'm 100,” she said.

What's your proudest moment in running?

“The Jacksonville Marathon and Gasparilla. I really enjoyed doing those races. I'm really proud of those races. I love being anywhere in the pack -- last, middle, front. Everyone is doing so good,” she said.

What is your training program now?

“I try to do 25-35 miles a week because I work fulltime. And I cut the runs up. I'll go to the gym three times a week and do sit-ups and light weights and the elliptical. I try to eat right, but it's hard.

What is the key to staying injury free?

“I try to stay on soft surfaces as much as I can. I wish I would have known that when I f irst started. I try to stay on soft trails especially. I really avoid sidewalks. I think that will help keep people injury free. I wish I could tell younger people so they can do it.

When you keep pounding your feet, you put so much weight down, it stresses your body. I can't emphasize this enough. It's hard for younger people to hear this when so many popular races are on streets. Humans are better designed to run on soft surfaces,” she said.

What are your favorite soft surface areas to run?

“Robinson Preserve, Emerson Point, Adventure Park in Lakewood Ranch, and GT Bray after work. Nathan Benderson also has a great area where you can even do bridge work. It's a super place to run,” she said.

Do you run every day?

“I do, except if I have a race I take the day off the day before. I might go to the gym. When I was younger, I ran every day. In my head, I feel if I run before, it takes something away from

9

my time. Maybe it doesn't, but I usually take off the day before. I run at least six days a week if I can,” she said.

Do you do speed work?

“I'm just coming back to doing that since I'm coming back from an injury.

It does help, even though I hate doing it. A lot of time, I'm cramped for time, so I do it on my own. I measure out the distance on my GPS watch to do it on my own, if I can't get to a group. I'll do a quarter mile. I'll pick a place with my watch and measure it out. I try to work out and do normal stuff with different groups too. Best times I ever did: 5K 19:45. Best 4 miles was 27:50, 10K 42:35, 15K 1:04, half 1:34, and marathon 3:28.

So what are the totals?

“From 2001-2014 present, I've won: Overall female Winner - 22 times.

Master Winner 92 times.

Grandmaster Winner - 72 times. Senior Grandmaster - 3 times. 1st place in age group 222 times,” she said.

Running over decades means for most runners an injury or two. How you deal with them is key. What injuries have you had and how have you treated them?

“The worst I've had is a Morton's Neuroma. I got a shot for that and didn't race for 4-6 months. Same goes for plantar fasciitis. I've just learned to take little breaks,” he said.

What shoes do you run in?

“Funny story. I used to help make orthotics when I was younger. I tried them. My feet felt worse. For years I ran in Mizunos, most recently the Elixor. But recently I discovered Under Armour's Assert. I can buy 3 pairs of those at the outlet mall for the price of one pair of Mizunos. They work great for me ,” she said.* Anything else you'd like to say?

“I've always loved the people I've met running. I feel that if I ever can't run someday, I will still have some of the greatest friends ever. It's really just about getting out there and showing up,” she said. *author's note. I recently checked our local outlet mall and they were out of the Asserts saying you could only order these online or get them at some local sporting goods stores. An employee of a local running store at a recent 5K also said that shoes vary widely and to shop carefully comparing apples to apples.

Running Through the Bluegrass The pelvis, worst 'seesaw' ever?

"It's all about the pelvis," my friend and physical therapist proclaimed recently. I wholeheartedly agreed, in part because I was in the middle of a dozen exercises to fix my own pelvis and disagreeing seemed like the kind of thing that would get me five more reps of something horrendously uncomfortable.

I, as it turns out, have a crooked pelvis.

The pelvis is a funny thing (and a funny word, I notice, after typing it four times in as many sentences), four bones that are the linchpin for runners. Think of your pelvis as a fulcrum -- that is, the base of a seesaw.

And imagine it's a weird Y-shaped seesaw, with your torso on one end and your legs on the other. And then imagine that your legs and torso are connected to the base (your pelvis) on pivots that allow everything to rotate in every direction. Pretty much the worse seesaw ever, and an accident waiting to happen.

See where this is going? It is the job of your pelvis -- and the connected muscles, tendons and ligaments -- to keep your seesaw going the right direction while you're running. Surely, we all know someone (or are culprits ourselves), of twisting our torso while we run. And there's not enough room in this column for me to even begin to discuss all the wonky things that happen from the pelvis down. You have your frequent biomechanical offender in pronation, but that and many other knee/IT band/shin issues stem from your pelvis.

In my own case, I have both structural and mechanical issues. First, my right leg is a tiny bit longer, by about half a centimeter.

This we can live with. Second, my right hipbone is rotated both to the back and to the side. This can be fixed. Third, I have developed bad habits of not using my psoas and glutes appropriately while running. Instead, my tensor fascia latae muscle -- TFL -- is

doing all the work. You can find your TFL by laying on your back with you feet against a wall at 90 degrees. When you bring your knee toward your chest in a marching motion, you may feel tension in your TFL by placing your hand across the front of your hip. But you shouldn't -- if your abdominals are pulled in and your psoas is firing, the TFL won't have to do the work.

This marching business is likely what I was somewhat literally knee-deep in when my friend got on her pelvic soapbox -- an easy one to get on when most of your clients have problems stemming from that very place.

For me, my pelvis has been manipulated back into place (and appears to be staying put), and I am working to strengthen and retrain my body to use the right muscles.

When I started therapy recently, people asked what was injured. Fortunately, I was able to say nothing -- this is purely preventative work at this point. I noticed some discrepancies between the two sides in Pilates ... and the side that seemed off-kilter is the side on which I've had 1) a tibial stress fracture; 2) a pulled hamstring; and 3) continual IT band and Achilles issues.

My friend and PT, Gwen, is not the only person on this soapbox, either. Running Times did a multi-piece article on the pelvis recently; you can find it at: http://www.runnersworld.com/injury-prevention-recovery/its-all-in-the-hips. And, as always, consult a professional before trying anything crazy. Some of those self-fix options might sound foolproof, but a physical therapist or other professional can identify your exact issues and make sure you are doing the appropriate exercises – and, more importantly, doing them correctly.

Ultra Running California or Bust!

I am apprehensive about a running event for the first time since about 1985. Yeah, almost 30 years since I have looked at an event and asked, “Could I?” “Should I”?

I have worn many hats in my ultra-career, well OK, few hats but many pairs of, and even odd couplings of shoes. I have run short and fast. I have run multi days. Any event any time, I have always felt up to the task. But, beginning June 15, I have an event I am not so sure about.

Beginning on Father's day, how appropriate, a gift to myself, I will embark on a 3100 mile run… No misprint… three thousand one hundred mile run. This race is being hosted for the 17th year by the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team.

I've been asked “Are you running cross country?” I reply that the race is all in New York City. I get asked where the race goes, and I tell people around the block. Specifically around the block that contains Thomas Edison High School and a small city park. When asked how far it is around ,I reply that it is .5488 miles.

Yes, just over one-half mile. 5649 laps to completion. If I feel good at the end of 3100 miles and there is time, I can continue another 13 laps for a nice round 5000 kilometer run.

Time, oh yeah. We get 52 days to complete the run. That works out to 59.6153846... call it 60 miles a day. That number is both reassuring and frightening. It is a 360 mile six day run, for 8 consecutive six-day periods. My last two six-day runs, two and a half years apart, were 338 and 302 miles respectively. Then there was the six-day and 10-hour Vol State 314-mile run. All of these performances fall short of the requirements for one six-day period let alone eight in a row.

One might wonder why I am doing this. I know I do. So I rationalize. That is something many runners and most ultrarunners are good at. I can talk about detrimental cold and/or

By Ray Krolewicz

rainy weather at the six days, and the terrain and self-handling chores at Vol-State as I ponder how many miles having an aid station every .5488 miles will add to a day.

The Sri Chinmoy Self Transcendence 3100 mile run is a unique event among multi-day races. It is not a stage race, because the runner in true go as you please fashion determines running, walking, resting and everything else that goes into the performance for 18 hours a day. After that everyone stops for six hours.

That aspect is like a stage race. The best, or worst of both worlds. How far can I run if running is my only task for 18 hours a day, every day for up to 52 days. Yes, I am a bit intimidated.

Many years ago in Jan. 1983 at another race I was apprehensive about, Park Barner gave me some useful advice at an indoor, seven lap to the mile 48-hour race. He told me to take the race outside, somewhere else. Run to a town, across a state he advised. I followed that advice. This summer I plan to follow it again.

I think the distance is about right for a transcontinental run. I will have my mileage marks in mind as I traverse the city block in Queens, NY. Right now I have to figure out how long it will take me to get to St. Louis.

Women’s Running Staying Sane in a World Gone Crazy As many of my readers know I decided to celebrate my 65th birthday by running a marathon a month. I am halfway done and have begun to wonder where this crazy idea originated. Fortunately this got me to thinking and as I deliberated during my many miles, I came up with some interesting insights and the idea for this column.

Let me also state at this point that I am not a normal 65-year-old woman -- whatever that may be. I have endless energy and can outlast most folks half my age. I still run 120- mile plus weeks as I have for over 30 years. I manage to stay healthy even though I rarely take a day off. I manage to maintain some speed given my age although I must say being age challenged is not for the weak of heart and fast is a very relative term now.

Given these considerations I must say that running is still my foundation and how I believe I maintain my sanity in a world gone mad. In 36 years of running I have only raced twice. That is part of the magic of my running. I obviously have a gift for running but I hate to race. My husband will confirm that he has only seen me push myself to my absolute limits in two races (a mile and a four mile both several decades ago). I will also admit that my training is much faster than any racing I have ever done. Racing for me is primarily a social event as I get to see my friends and have fun. Training is a very serious thing for me and I do the majority of it alone. Perhaps

A Painting for Margaret The following is a letter received from Brenda Cooter of Grovetown, GA, along with photos of the painting she had done for 91-year-old Margaret Hagerty of Concord, NC. Hagerty has a Guiness World Record as the oldest person to have completed a marathon on each of the seven continents.

This is a painting I did of Margaret Hagerty with some of the places she has run marathons around her - Mt. Everest, The Great Wall of China, The Shamrock in Ireland, The Gold Coast in Australia, and the North Pole.

Margaret is so nice. She is an inspiration to all that if you set your mind to it, you can do anything within your physical abilities. I wanted to honor her, so I painted this for her.

I am honored to know her. Next to my mother, Margaret is my hero. She is a trend setter for all. Like Nike says, “Just do it.” Margaret just does it.

Margaret asked me if I will be running when I'm 91, well if there is still a world and if I am alive and well, I hope to be running.

By Carolyn Mather, RN, PhD.

that is part of the reason that running maintains my sanity.

I realize that many of you may not be able to identify with me as I am 65 but hopefully you will one day be there and you will remember what I had to say. To me running is where I get all my energy and I believe solve or at least deal with the majority of my concerns and problems. I started running because I was bored and needed something to fill my time. That is and of itself another article which I wrote years ago. But I instantly found running to be a peaceful endeavor where I was alone and could ponder life. I did the majority of my PhD dissertation while running. I have gotten through many tough times running.

To this day if I am feeling down or have a concern I go for a run. It always works.

Now let me talk about the world that I think has gone crazy. Smart phones, GPS watches, heart rate monitors, fitness wrist-

www.running.net bands, headphones, music, virtual coach apps, fanny packs, gels, etc accompany most runners on most runs. I realize I choose to live in a world free of most of these "enhancements" but I think it might be a good idea to think about why you run and perhaps ditch a few of these things and get back to running as it was intended.

Living in the moment without technology filtering, recording and sharing your steps will help you enjoy your running.

Listening to your breathing and communicating with your body without an outside force monitoring your every move will actually improve your performance over time. Your hobby that is intended to reduce stress has become more stressful with all the gadgets. You are not getting tranquility but more stress. You are taking this crazy world with you on your run and not enjoying running for what it is.

Okay you can now call me anti-technology and say I am living in the dark ages. I actually do have a computer and a Facebook page and an "emergency only" cell phone which thankfully does not work at my house. I think running with music blaring not only endangers your safety but damages your hearing if you listen to it as loudly as most seem to do. I also realize that I will NEVER win that battle as many cannot live without their tunes or so they tell me. You really should get the feel of running and you cannot get that pure simplicity without unplugging.

One of the best runners I have ever known never wears a watch even though she has had a sponsor for decades. I recently reported on Bizunesh Deba who ran close to 5:30 a mile for the entire ING New York City Marathon without a watch. She can feel her pace and does not have to depend on a watch to tell her what she is doing. Shalane Flanagan never looked at her watch on her way to the 15K American record and did not even know her time when she finished. But I am willing to bet she knew her pace and how she felt each and every step.

I know none of you plan to be elite athletes. It will never be your job. But running is a natural activity. How many animals do you see running and wearing headphones, checking a watch or checking their pace?

Kids enjoying playing do not have technol-

ogy to record every move. They are having fun. You should do the same.

Consider disconnecting for a week or a month or even a few days. Make running your time. Don't block the messages your body sends you constantly during your run.

Listen to your body and assess all the subtle feedback you will receive when you learn to listen. Take back the simplicity of just lacing up your shoes and hitting the road or trails without any "help."

I actually bought a GPS watch. I wore it twice and it made me crazy! I figured if I let the watch dictate my pace and training effort I would probably be injured in a few weeks. It now resides in the box it arrived in and I see it occasionally to remind me of how blessed I am to want to keep it in the box. I am an expert in monitoring my body and pushing myself and letting myself enjoy the serenity of nature. I mainly wear a watch so I get home in time so my husband will not worry. I can monitor my own heart and am more in touch with every part of me. I return from my daily runs refreshed, calm and ready to take on the day. I am filled with energy to take on a world slowly losing touch. And guess what? I can run huge mileage and rarely get injured. I think there is a connection there.

I know this is a different world from the one in which I grew up. It is not necessarily better from my perspective but I am spoiled with real books, a phone (or watch) that does not need charging, water that comes from a spring, home cooked meals, a magnificent wine cellar, friends who still know how to talk not text and write real letters in cursive. I suspect that is one of the reasons we moved to the mountains where I have trails, little traffic, and neighbors who think I must be an Olympian because I run so much.

Masters Running Spokane 2014 - An RRCA Convention to Remember Every runner owes it to his or herself to go to an RRCA (Road Runners Club of America) Convention at least once in their lifetime. A few weeks before this writing I returned from our most recent convention, held in Spokane, WA. Our conventions are held at different locations every year, but always in the springtime. Something can always be found there for every runner: Seminars on running related topics, an awards banquet, live and silent auctions, group runs, presentations by celebrity runners, and of course a race. Plus plenty of opportunities to meet and mingle with other runners from all over the country. And although our conventions aren't specifically for masters runners, many attendees are in the masters age groups.

This year's convention was held the first weekend in May. It was a very lively one, with more people than usual attending. What drew all these people to Spokane? After all it was a long plane ride for many, especially for us here in the Southeastern corner of the US. Maybe it was the great slate of presenters that we had this year. First and foremost, our speakers at both luncheons and at the Saturday Awards Banquet were all Olympians. Two were medal winners, and the third (Don Kardong) came very close. At the Saturday luncheon, Kardong entertained us by talking about the journey that took him to a fourth place finish in the marathon at the 1976 Montreal Olympics. Not just about the race itself, but also the years of training that led up to it.

Our Saturday evening speaker was no other than Deena Kastor! She probably needs no further introduction. When she captured the bronze medal at the 2004 Athens Olympics, also in the marathon, she instantly became a National hero.

By Lena Hollmann RRCA Southern Director

Our Friday luncheon speaker, Bernard Lagat, has yet to run a marathon. But I'm sure he would be virtually unbeatable if he did! I got the opportunity to get my picture taken with him the previous day, and noticed his extremely light frame. I am fairly petite myself, but I am certain I weigh more than he does. He is a decorated runner in the 800 to 5000 meter range, with a silver medal in the 1500 meters at the 2004 Athens Olympics as his greatest accomplishment. Just a few months ago he ran a 13:19 5K at the Carlsbad 5000 in Carlsbad, CA, placing second overall.

If you are a male masters runner you better watch out by the way - he will turn 40 in December!!

In addition to our celebrity speakers there were plenty of seminar presenters, who spoke on everything from event safety and youth running programs, to coaching of ultramarathoners. I sat in on the latter presentation, even though I am not an ultra runner myself and probably never will be. But I coach runners and get inquiries about ultras all the time.

Presenter Ryan Knapp did a great job, and I walked out with a lot of knowledge about ultras that I didn't have when I walked in. Not enough to convince me to run one, but I know now for example that in order to be successful you have to customize your training for the race you are planning to run. Not all ultras are created equal, and you have to take all the “Big Five” (race distance, average elevation, amount of climb and descent, type of terrain, and weather) into account when you design a training program.

I also attended the event safety session, presented by Al Odenthal. Unfortunately we must be much more vigilant at race venues today than we used to be, at least during larger events. While it is impossible to safeguard an entire race course, we can implement security measures at the most vulnerable areas, such as start and finish areas, and water stops.

Odenthal presented some ideas on how race directors can increase security at their events without breaking the bank. For example, they could hire 'dedicated' observers, prohibit larg-

Lena alongside one of the runner statues in Spokane

It is also important for race directors to have contingency plans in place, and to expect the unexpected. Especially since potential terrorist attacks aren't the only safety concerns at running events. Fires and flooding have forced race directors to make last minute course changes in the past. I can think of several examples of this, but will save it for another column. The recent Oklahoma City Marathon had to be delayed two hours because of thunderstorms in the area. Medical emergencies, including deaths, have happened during races, even though they are very rare. Race directors must be prepared for any and all of the above, and be ready to take appropriate action, if needed. Attending this safety session in Spokane reminded me of the decisiveness and creativity that is often expected of a race director, and my hat goes off to all of you out there who direct races.

After all we learned at this convention, we also deserved some relaxation and social time.

And it was interspersed with the educational events during the entire convention. Friday morning I participated in one of the largest group runs I can ever recall attending, which took us out on a loop on a beautiful course.

Saturday morning I opted for yoga instead, saving my legs for the Lilac Bloomsday race the following day. As far as I can recall it was

13

the first time we were offered yoga at our conventions, and it was a real treat.

And there were parties, of course! First a welcome reception on Thursday night, then an offsite dinner and wine tasting on Friday evening, at the Arbor Crest Winery. And last but not the least, our own Saturday evening Awards Banquet, where we present our National Running Awards every year.

One might think we wouldn't have any energy left on Sunday morning, but many of us did! Several of us, myself included, got up early to run the Lilac Bloomsday 12K. It is one of the largest races in the country, with approximately 50,000 participants. Convention attendees were allowed to start in a corral near the front, but the course was still jam packed with runners the whole way. My pace was not quite on par with what I usually run these days, as I was dodging other runners and also the famous (or maybe I should say infamous!)

Doomsday Hill, which is about half a mile long and comes when you least want it, about five miles into the race. But the course was one of the prettiest I have seen, and the weather was perfect for running!

Spokane itself was definitely worth a visit, and so was our host hotel, the Davenport Inn. Located right in the center of town and built exactly one hundred years ago (1914), it was a true gem that I will always remember. I could write a whole column about the hotel alone.

The spectacular lobby, the delicious food, the majestic ballrooms, the pictures in the hallways that took us back in time… But I will stop here and just mention that it was one of the most fascinating hotels I have ever stayed at.

When you stepped outside you were just blocks from great running trails, which offered some hills but also beautiful scenery that reminded me somewhat of Sweden, my home country. In a nearby park there were also some quite unique statues of runners, who got dressed up in shirts from past Bloomsday races during the days preceding this year's race.

Spokane was recently awarded the RRCA Runner Friendly Community Award, and after visiting I can certainly understand why. Even the weather was runner friendly! Or at least it was during our convention. There was a little of a chill during most mornings, but the afternoons were absolutely splendid, with sunshine and temperature in the 70s.

With this column I hope I have convinced you to come to a future RRCA Convention, especially if you haven't been to one already.

Our next convention is scheduled for April 2226, 2015, in Des Moines, Iowa. Please mark it on your calendars. I already did, and am looking forward to seeing some of you there!

The Athlete’s Kitchen

EAT WELL, RUN WELL

Runners Staying Away From Carbs: Really?

Don’t let “I stay away from bagels and bread. They have too many carbs.” “ I'm on the Paleo Diet; I don't eat wheat or other grain foods.”

“I don't eat pasta dinners any more. I have a big salad instead.”

Too many of my clients are “staying away from carbs.” One woman, an Ironman triathlete, was trying to train on a diet based on protein powder, almond butter, egg whites, and chicken, with a few spinach salads and apples on the side. No wonder she was struggling to complete her workouts! Her diet was short on wholesome grains that can easily fuel her muscles and help her perform at a high level.

The definition of that “enemy” carbohydrate varies from runner to runner. For some runners, carbs means bagels, bread, and pasta. For others, carbs means any food made with white flour and sugar. For me, carbs includes grains, fruits, vegetables and all forms of sugars and starches. These all digest into glucose, feed the brain, and get stored as glycogen in the muscles. If you eat too few carbs, your muscles will feel needlessly fatigued.

As I mentioned in last month's Carbohydrate Confusion article, some popular diet books (including The Paleo Diet, Grain Brain, and Wheat Belly) have convinced many runners to avoid carbohydrate-rich foods. The authors paint the picture that carbs are inflammatory, fattening, and bad for you. Their hype fails to clearly explain that the anti-carb message is not appropriate for athletes who are lean, fit & healthy.

The carbs-are-bad messages are targeted to the masses of overfat, sedentary people who consume excessive amounts of calories, often from sweets and treats. For those unfit (often unhealthy) people, excess carbohydrate can contribute to elevated blood glucose, which triggers the body to secrete extra insulin. Consistently high insulin can be inflammatory and lead to nasty health problems. Yet, well-trained runners can handle carbs with far less insulin than the average Americanand without carbs causing “sugar crashes” or weight gain.

Carbs for runners For runners who routinely train hard four to six days a week, carbs enhance performance and should be the foundation of each meal. The International Olympic Committee's research-based recommendations for an optimal sports diet include far more carbs than you may realize:

So what does this recommendation look like in terms of food? For a 150-lb runner who trains hard an hour a day and remains somewhat active the rest of the day (that is, does more than just sit in front of a computer for 8 hours), this comes to 375 to 450 grams of carbohydrate per day, the equivalent of 1,500 to 1,800 calories of carbs. This is more than a few blueberries, a spinach salad, and a pile of broccoli!

While I suspect many of you are rolling your eyes right now and thinking, “My body is different from everyone else's. I could never eat that many carbs without getting fat,” believe it or not, this is an appropriate intake. Here's how that 150-lb runner might want to evenly distribute carbs throughout the day. Notice how this menu sharply contrasts with the low-carb menus I commonly see: breakfast, protein shake; lunch, salad+chicken; afternoon snack, almonds; dinner, pile of veggies+protein; then evening snacks, often uncontrollable…

If these meals look “fattening” to you, please notice the lack of snacking before and after dinner on crackers or sweets. Nor are there food binges every three days when the runner succumbs to devouring the whole bag of cookies. This plan offers a hefty dose of carbs and

calories throughout the active part of the athlete's day, when the body needs the fuel.

missing link...

• enjoy better workouts • lose undesired body fat • feel great!

Replacing grains with fruits and veggies Grain-phobics, take note: If you have sworn off bagels for breakfast, here's what you need to put in your fruit smoothie to replace the 60 grams of carbohydrates in a 300-calorie Dunkin' Donuts-size bagel: 16 medium strawberries + 1 cup blueberries + 1 medium banana If you have nixed your lunchtime sandwich and pretzels, here's how many veggies you need in your salad to replace the 62 g carbs from 2 slices (220 calories) wholesome bread and a 100-calorie bag of pretzels: 24 cherry tomatoes (15 g carb) + 2 whole 7” cucumbers (8 g carb) + 2 whole 8” carrots (14 g carb) + 2 large green peppers (16 g carb) + 5 cups (10-ounce bag) mixed salad greens (9 g carb) Alternatively, you could heap a whole cup of chickpeas on top of the greens. Either way, you end up with a pile of food that is time consuming to eat if you are a busy runner.

No more pasta for dinner? To replace those two cups of happiness (1/4 of a 16-oz box dry pasta=84 g carb), you'd need to eat this many veggies to fully refuel your muscles and load them up for the next day's workout: 3 c cooked zucchini squash sautéed with 1 large onion (45 g carb) + 2 c cooked kale (15 g) + 8 spears broccoli (24 g).

The bottom line Wholesome grains have a helpful role in a sports diet. While fruits and veggies offer some carbs, you need to eat lots of them to compensate for lack of grains. Your efforts to eat healthfully might end up contributing to a sports diet that fails to support your hard training. Please, fuel wisely!

Run with energy to spare—and even lose weight at the same time!

St. Jude Cancellation Prompts Return With A Team

By Deleica Clayton Ellisville, Mississippi If you've ever trained for a marathon, you know it is a daunting task, especially for those making the leap from a half to the whole marathon. In December 2012, I dreamed of running 26.2 miles for the kids at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

My training began last July. In the summer -- in south Mississippi. I don't have the vocabulary to adequately express how hot and humid our summers are down here. Normally I run after work around 5:30 pm with a running buddy. However, when I decided I would do the full instead of the half marathon, I started training two days a week before work around 5am. That seemed to help some with the heat and my body didn't feel as drained.

When I went online to register for the St. Jude's Marathon, I had planned to just sign up as a runner. I had never heard of the “hero” runner so I clicked the button to find out what a hero meant and how to become one. I read that you had to sign up for a certain amount of money that you would agree to raise for the kids. I went home and discussed this with my husband. I told him the lowest level was $500 and I was scared I would not be able to raise that much and I'd have to pay it all myself. He assured me that people would give and that I just needed to have faith. I prayed about it and the next day I signed up.

I was super excited to tackle this new task. I begin challenging my friends, coworkers, family, and church members to give a donation. Ultimately, to my surprised delight, I raised a little over $5,000 simply by asking people to donate. I was ecstatic! I never dreamed that I could raise that much money myself!

The months flew by and before long it was Friday, Dec. 6, 2013, the day to make the trek north to Memphis, TN. I was pumped. I had trained for months; I felt mentally and physically prepared to conquer the 26.2 miles. I had a running buddy who was doing the half so we decided to travel together that weekend. Then a major cold front came through the Memphis area. There was ice everywhere. There was a lot of talk on Facebook asking the organizers of the marathon weekend if the race would still go on. We were assured the race was still a go.

That Friday morning, my friend and I loaded up our vehicle and headed out. My husband had begged me to stay home, thinking I would be making a dangerous journey for a race that probably would be canceled anyway. I told him that I had trained and raised over $5,000 and I couldn't let the kids down. So off my friend and I went. As we headed to Memphis, we passed several emergency vehicles headed in the same direction. I knew that probably wasn't a good sign, but we ventured on. We arrived in Memphis and checked into our hotel. As we excitedly headed to the Expo that night for some pre-race events, it sleeted and snowed lightly, but the roads were not terribly bad.

Since I was a hero, I was invited to the pasta dinner that night. Not knowing anything about it or what to expect, my friend and I were literally in tears standing at the door to enter the pasta dinner. They had St. Jude's cheerleaders standing in two lines down the hall cheering for us. It was amazing and heartwarming. It still brings tears to my eyes! Here we are just regular people that helped to raise money and they were there cheering for us!

The banquet room was beautiful. Plenty of food and such nice people waiting on us.

A program was Deleica Clayton in the rain after running her scheduled to start at 6 personal 26.2 miles after the Memphis pm. I looked at my race cancellation

watch and it was slightly after six. I told my friend that something must be up because they were running late. I just had this sinking feeling deep down.

Finally after a fifteen minute delay, Richard Shadyac Jr., Chief Executive Officer of ALSAC (fund-raising organization of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital), appeared on the stage. He began by saying he needed to talk to us about something. From that moment, I knew it wasn't good. He began to tell us how they had just decided to cancel the race. He told us more ice was predicted for that night which meant the roads would be extremely bad in the morning, so due to safety for the runners, they had to cancel the race.

The more I thought about all the months of training and all the people I begged for money to help me raise money, the angrier I got.

Suddenly, the words $18 million dollars penetrated my angry fog.

Mr. Shadyac was saying we had collectively raised that much money! Then he introduced a St. Jude's patient and when she walked out and began to speak, it was like the good Lord slapped me. I had been sitting there only thinking of myself! I had not even thought about what all those kids go through during treatments! I just wanted to crawl under the table and cry. Actually I did cry! I was so ashamed of myself for losing sight of the whole purpose of the race - the kids. Terminally ill kids who needed our help.

I went to the bathroom and composed myself and when I came back, I told my friend that I would be back next year and I would bring a team. I also told her that when we got back home to Mississippi, I was still going to run my 26.2 miles. I had to complete the journey. The next morning we headed back to Mississippi and the following day I ran 26.2 miles in the rain on the Longleaf Trace in Hattiesburg. My friends said I was crazy. It was extremely cold and rained the whole time. But I was determined and I did it!

This year, I have assembled a team of 20 runners so far called RUN4THEKIDS. We will be going to Memphis in December where some will run the half and some will run the full marathon.

We have started our fund-raising and hope to raise a lot of money.

I'm super excited to see what we will do. I believe the race being canceled last year was God telling me that I could do more this year.

Don't get me wrong. I was disappointed the race was cancelled, but some races are not about you. Some are about helping others.

Besides, as in all aspects of life, there can be opportunity found in setbacks. St. Jude's marathon is an awesome thing. They even transferred my entry to the Nashville race where I ran this past April. It was an awe-inspiring experience to run a race as a hero. I can't wait to do it in Memphis where the St. Jude's Hospital is located. If you will be running the race, look for the team RUN4THEKIDS, I'll be in that group.

Distance Memories ‘Don't Run, Honey, You Could Hurt Yourself’

By Scott Ludwig Before I get ahead of myself, a little background is required.

I ran my first marathon in March of 1979: The Florida Relays Marathon in Gainesville, Florida. A couple of minutes before the race began I asked then Florida track coach Roy Benson for advice for a novice marathoner.

Coach Benson's comment eliminated any possibility for misinterpretation: 'Don't run marathons.'

Fast forward to December 2012: I ran my 200th marathon in Honolulu, Hawaii. The trip to Oahu also served as a 35-year wedding anniversary present for Cindy and me, so having her meet me at the finish line of the marathon was pretty special seeing as she was there to see me start my first marathon almost two generations earlier. (Did she hear Coach Benson's advice? Why yes she did, and thank you for asking.)

There was a period of time when my running partners and I stayed in 'marathon shape' year round, the operative word being 'was.'

Today that is not the case. For the first time in my life as a runner I am not in shape to run a marathon: In between marathons #1 and #200 I've done everything possible to ensure my body is no longer capable of running 26.2 consecutive miles without inflicting a great amount of pain and suffering to a body that probably should have retired to the athletic attic several thousand miles ago.

Getting back to the Honolulu Marathon (# 200, in case you've forgotten): Seconds after crossing the finish line in Kapiolani Park I told Cindy it would be my last marathon. Of course it came with a caveat: Unless I could get healthy again.

Last Labor Day I hosted an informal marathon consisting of five 5.2-mile loops.

My intent was to run three loops and wait for the other runners to finish so I could get their finishing times and round up the equipment once the event was over. After I finished my third loop I was invited to run a loop with someone I hadn't seen in a while.

Before I knew what hit me I had run just shy of 21 miles and spent the better part of an hour catching up with an old friend. Then after I finished my fourth loop, I realized I only had a couple of hours left before the last runner would finish so I figured why not make the time go by a little quicker and run one more loop and lo and behold I had accidentally (inadvertently?) run my 201st marathon. (I speak the truth.) What made it worse was this: I still did not consider myself to be 'healthy again' thus turning my promise of nine months ago into a lie.

Which brings me to today: I'm on the starting line of the Five Points of Life Marathon in Gainesville, Florida wearing a yellow race number. There is no doubt I should be wear-

Scott Ludwig

ing a blue number just like last year when I ran in the accompanying half marathon. But when I signed up four or five months ago I felt certain I would be 'healthy again' by the time the marathon (February 16, 2014) rolled around. My yoga regimen (recommended by a neurosurgeon, no less) seemed to be paying off and I was still maintaining a solid (albeit much slower) mileage base that was very comparable to the distance I was running when I could complete a marathon at the drop of a hat. (Our running group had a slogan back then: Stay in marathon shape year round because you never know when one is going to break out. Believe me, I upheld my end of the bargain.) But today I can assure you: In no way, shape or form am I ready to run a marathon: In my entire running career I have never had to make such an admission.

As you may have gathered, Cindy gave me a good dose of guilt before I actually made it

to the starting line (admittedly I deserved every bit of it). Telling her I would hold off deciding whether or not I would run the full marathon 'until I saw how I felt' didn't seem to do much good, probably because she knows me well enough to know I had no intention (nor the intellect) of opting for the shorter yet-much-more-reasonable distance of the half marathon--regardless of how I felt.

Once the race was underway I stuck to my original game plan of keeping my effort and exertion at less than 100%; I figured it was the only chance I had of gutting out 26.2 miles. As I was running my first mile, I noticed the 3:30 marathon pace group pass me by. Soon after, the 3:45 marathon pace group did the same. (Note: I should mention that all of the half marathon pace groups passed me by as well during the first mile, even though their race started about 150 yards behind mine.) I reached the first mile marker in a robust 8:51. (I was targeting a nine-minute pace for the entire race, meaning I would be very satisfied with a four-hour marathon.) I was pretty happy with my first mile, at least up until the moment the 4:00 marathon pace group dusted me like there was no tomorrow.

Not the type to be easily dismayed I maintained my pace-give or take a few secondsfor the next 12 miles until I reached the point of no return: The 13-mile mark where a volunteer was stationed to direct the half marathon runners to the right for the last tenth of a mile to the finish line, and the marathon runners to the left for another 13.2 miles of undulating hills and climbing temperatures before they would reach their respective finish line.

I turned to the right, only to be stopped by the stalwart volunteer who refused to let me pass seeing as I had a yellow number indicating I had signed up to do the Full Monty and there was no way in hell I would be the cause of him not being named the local running club's Volunteer of the Year in 2014 because he allowed me with a yellow number to run the last tenth of a mile reserved for runners with a blue number. I rehearsed that last sentence in my head so many times over the next 13.2 miles I almost started to believe it myself; I figured I would have no problem selling it to Cindy in a couple of hours or so.

Somehow I managed to maintain the same pace for another 11 miles. I was on pace for a four-hour marathon but was quickly succumbing to the various ailments caused by allowing my 'good' left leg to do most of the heavy lifting for the better part of 24 miles.

(More background: My right leg has, for all intents and purposes been on the 'disabled list' since September 2010, which in condensed form explains the yoga, the reduced mileage and the overall non-marathon ready

condition I find myself in today.)

But then something inside of me clicked.

Maybe it was because I feared this might be my last marathon ever and I wanted to finish it in less than four hours. Maybe it was because I was in Gainesville where I ran my first marathon almost 35 years ago and how cool it would be to run my last marathon - if it in fact turned out to be my last - in the same city. Maybe it was because I wanted to do well in my age group if this ultimately became my marathon swan song and coincidentally there just happened to be two men just in front of me who looked like they might be right around my age.

Whatever it was, I feel comfortable saying I ran those last 2.2 miles about as well as I've ever run 2.2 miles in my life. Was I in extreme pain? Yes. Would I be admitted into an ER if I had run directly into one without breaking stride? Absolutely. Did I FOR ONE MINUTE think I was doing something that could cause irreparable damage to my body in the future? Without a doubt. Did any of this matter? The only thing that mattered was running hard enough to finish in less than four hours, regardless of how much it hurt or how much permanent damage it might be doing.

I crossed the finish line in three hours, 55 minutes and 21 seconds. I won my age group. I ran what may turn out to be my final marathon in the city where it all began: Gainesville, Florida. Time to quit while I'm ahead, right? Especially considering Cindy wasn't happy ('But I won my age group, dear!') that I ran the full marathon and didn't believe my story about the 13-mile volunteer for a second, even though by now I had convinced myself it was the absolute truth.

The next morning I woke up after a restless night with the absolute worst pain in my right kidney: If I didn't know any better I would have sworn it was used as a punching bag by Rocky Balboa because he wasn't able to find a suitable side of beef. As I stumbled into the living room of our good friends Ferit and Gizem Toska -- whom we were staying with for the weekend, I fell onto the couch to watch cartoons with their two-year old son, Derin. On the television a talking taxi was returning a young boy who had become separated from his mother. As she thanked the taxi for returning her son, the boy took off running to play with his friends. The mother called out to her son: “Don't run, honey. You could hurt yourself.”

I think I just might get that phrase printed on a couple of T-shirts. One for me and one for Roy Benson, who told me the same thing almost 35 years ago.

Just not in so many words.

He Said, She Said If You Can't Beat the Heat, Will You Join It? “If you can't beat them, join them!” You have heard it before - may have even heeded the advice. Plenty of politicians have joined parties of previous opposition. Jocks have tossed out team jerseys, joined their nemeses, and proudly played beside them the very next season. Devout disciples of one faith have also discovered and converted to faiths of different teachings. When one cannot get where he wants when standing against something of seeming resistance, sometimes he surrenders and unites with the strife.

Now, in these early days of summer, some find the sun and accompanying heat to be a battle they simply cannot overcome. Many runners even retire their running shoes to the revolving belts of aircondition-cooled treadmills. As a runner in this first full month of summer, what will you do? This month I ask, “If you can't beat the heat, will you join it?”

Brandon DiBianca with his wife of 2.5 years, Nicole DiBianca.

He (Brandon DiBianca) Said…

“I honestly love the heat,” 27-year old Brandon DiBianca said. “I tend to train around 4 or 5pm when it is still pretty toasty outside, so I think I get pretty acclimated to it,” he said.

DiBianca began running 12 years ago when he joined his high school cross country team. Since that time, he has achieved some impressive personal bests, including: a 9:51 2- mile, 15:58 5k, 34:05 10k, 1:16 _ marathon, and a 2:57 marathon.

“When I am building up for a key run-

ception that “Bobby and some of the other guys are on a whole different level than [he is],” he also believes that his feet can find the finish line of this year's event By in a better time than 2013.

Mary Marcia Brown “I was sick the week before last year's race, so I believe I can run faster,” DiBianca said.

Motivated by competition and undaunted by the rays of the summer's sun, DiBianca plans on joining the heat on the ning race (mostly half marathons and 5k course the end of this month.

Running in the shade certainly cools down summer runs. But if in the shade, your shaded running course is still a hundred and ten, it may be time to find a new route.

He asks us again at the end of the tune to “trust him about the sunscreen”. Wearing it during a long summer run might very well make our spandex more comfortable during the next one.

4. Joe Cocker said “You Can Leave Your Hat On”. Sounds like decent advice to heed during your runs, but there is really little need to leave it on for the rest of the day - especially during your post-run shower. And… 5. While the Dave Matthews Band advised “Don't Drink the Water,” remember that they also sang “Crash Into Me.” Keep this tune on your playlist as an example of what NOT to do. DO drink the water to stay well-hydrated, and encourage your fellow runners to understand and honor your personal running space instead of “crashing” into it.

Finally, if you happen to be someone who has no intentions of joining the heat for your summer miles, worry not. There is a tune for you, too. A playlist consisting of a single song will likely do the trick. You can simply remember Michael Jackson and the King of Pop's legendary lyrics as you relate them to the heat, and just “Beat It.”

He Said, She Said When did your feet complete a feat?

A spectator positioned at a marathon finish line can expect to witness an expansive array of raw emotions as runners realize their 26.2-mile goal. From the torrent of tears flooding from the eyes of novice runners who never knew the distance was possible, to the joyful elation of veterans achieving victorious personal bests, marathon finish lines are filled with goals achieved and dreams come true.

Few will dispute that finishing a marathon is an accomplishment. Yet, as a runner, you likely realize that running accomplishments reveal themselves in sorted speeds, different distances, and with or without the glory of celebratory finish line applause. They may be aspirations you purposefully set out to achieve or they may be bounties of success surprisingly bestowed as a result of your committed running regimen. Regardless of the defining framework, you probably remember just how fulfilling that final step felt. This month I ask, when did your feet last complete a gratifying feat?

Rafael Martin beginning his 250-mile Run for Hope

He (Rafael Martin) Said…

“When I finished the 250-mile run I knew that I had accomplished something that few people in the world have done,” 45-year old Rafael Martin said of the five-day run he conceptualized and independently completed in March.

Losing his mother, Ligia Martin to stomach cancer in 2005, Rafael Martin set his sights on doing something dramatic to capture Florida's attention about the epidemic of cancer, while honoring his mother's memory.

In 2011, Martin began to toss around the

I was amazed at how nice people were,” Martin recounted.

These gestures were particularly appreciated on the first day of Martin's run when he realized he had underestimated just how much water his body would require to safely endure the day's miles. He ran out of the water supply he was carrying in his backpack, and began to feel the effects of dehydration before he could make it to a store to buy more. His requests for water from both a business and a home along the way were granted. Combined with a brief rest under the shade of a nearby tree, the gifts of water rehydrated and re-energized Martin to continue his journey.

Roadside memorials were impactful reminders of the loss others had weathered as Martin steadfastly trudged the final miles of his own personal pilgrimage in his mother's memory. With a giant blister on his left foot disguised beneath the protective barrier of duct tape, and with a smile to suppress the intense pain of his plight, Martin successfully arrived at the capital on Tuesday, March 25. Governor Rick Scott was not there to meet him, but he did send a message through his Communications Director and the health department.

“They told me that Governor Rick Scott had increased the money for cancer research by 30 million in the new budget,” Martin shared. “I knew I had made an impact.”

While Martin was disappointed that the Governor was not in Tallahassee to meet him in person, he was explicitly clear that the hopeful meeting was not the reason for the run.

“I ran for the memory of my mother, for all of the cancer survivors in Florida, and for myself. I pushed myself past whatever limits I thought I had. I also learned my body's limitations, and when I do another ultra-run I will be better prepared,” Martin said.

As for his next inspiring run, Martin's wheels are already turning. Of course, he will need to successfully recover first from his recent prostate surgery, but Martin is prepared to embrace the challenge and have his feet complete yet another gratifying feat.

“I envision running capital to capital, Tallahassee to Washington D.C., in hopes of meeting the President of the United States.

My goal would be to raise awareness about the epidemic of cancer across America, and I would ask the President to do more to increase funding for cancer research on the federal level,” Martin said.

“It's just a dream, but so was my run to Tallahassee before I did it.”

idea of running from Lakeland to Tallahassee to speak to the Governor about increasing funding for cancer research.

Having been out of shape and overweight most of his life, Martin was unsure if he could physically tackle the 250-mile feat.

Two years later, he took the plunge, committed to his 250-mile run, and announced his intended journey to commence March 21, 2014.

The days sandwiched between the disclosure of Martin's expected run and the run itself, were saturated with 12-hour per week running, three weekly days strength training, a 50-mile run in December, map questing his course, securing hotel stops along his journey, and some very surprising, untimely, and unwelcomed news just days before the dawning of his inspiring ultra run.

“After I committed to [run the 250 miles], and I announced it in November 2013, I discovered I had prostate cancer on March 5, 2014,” Martin shared.

His spirit undaunted and his intended path undeterred, Martin accepted his diagnosis as the ammunition to fuel his 'personally meaningful'-turned-'even more personal' run.

Geared with his mother's picture, a purple Tenoroc Titans hat from the high school where he once taught, a cell phone, some spending money, and a backpack full of supplies, Martin began his Lakeland to Tallahassee journey from the parking lot of Polk State College at 6 a.m. on Friday, March 21. Chase Woolman of Positive Body Fitness Center helped sponsor Martin's run and was there to bid him safe and successful travels and witness his very first stride. So. too, were a handful of friends, Martin's pastor, and a Bay News 9 reporter and cameraman.

Yet for the next four full days, Martin trekked alone. Averaging 62 miles per day for four days before finally arriving at the capital on day five, Martin managed the miles with his determination, occasional She (Mary Marcia Brown) Said… calls from friends and family who were worried about him, and the assistance of During a recent visit to North Carolina, strangers who offered help along the way. my feet successfully completed the most “Floridians asked me what I was doing, [and] offered me food, water, and donations. gratifying feat of the year. It was not an ultra

marathon, a marathon, or even a half marathon. It was a simple 7.5-mile course that simply wasn't that simple.

Let's face it - our feet are fantastically phenomenal to conquer the courses, resiliently recover, and contently consent to taxiing us through additional miles we decide to travel.

Yet on any given run, the message for them to move comes from somewhere other than the metatarsal territory. Something from somewhere else, turbo charges our feet to tackle the terrain that lies ahead. Typically, it's the mind.

I marvel at the mind. It is almost magical how our thoughts evoke emotions, our visions construct physical reality, and our mental affirmations beget goals fulfilled.

But what happens when the mind is weighted with heavy thoughts, fogged by clouded visions, and afflicted with affirmations of negative mind talk? What fuels our running feet to realize a feat when our minds are filled with DEfeat? I'll take “What is the heart?” for $2000, Alex (TV quiz show).

Have you ever pondered the idea that there are people who “lose their minds” every day, but they endure in running and in life. You may have even had someone tell you that you must have lost your mind for running like you do. Yet without the beat of your heart, you are lifeless. Without your heart, there is no message to live, and certainly no message to tell your feet to run.

Thankfully, I had a full heart to fuel my recent 7.5-mile NC run with my dad. We ran past cursing cars, barking dogs, and the field of naked pecan trees where we picked a fruitful harvest beneath the crackling leaves of fall more than a year ago. My dad had, had a tough week and so had I. As he ran, his eyes were full of tears, and mine had no more to cry. I reached for his hand and palm in palm we ran past the parade of pecan trees, picking up our pace to jointly realize a real running achievement after a challenging week. It was undeniably a feat turbo charged by the heart.

Post-run, we walked down the long dirt driveway, both drenched in a sweat that seemed to wipe away the week's sullied slate. I thanked my dad for giving me the gift of running that has helped me through some trying chapters and rewarded me during some joyful journeys. The most joyful have been the ones shared with him.

As we approach this month's Father's Day, I want him to know in his mind and in his heart how very important he is to me. The weight of the world may try to threaten the magical mystery of the mind, but with full hearts our feet move us forward. And if we are lucky, they are laced in running shoes and prepared to complete gratifying feats with the ones we love the most.

Girls on the Run - What Fun!

By Neil Reimenschneider

www.running.net would meet them at the start line by 8:45 AM. Held at the local city park, I arrived, got my packet and did a little warm up. There was a crowd of girls! Had to be a few hundred! They all had their faces painted and their hair colored along with bright t-shirts. I commended Naomi on her having race bib #1 and but then it was pointed out to me that ALL the girls in the program were wearing the #1. So much for my awareness...

We lined up towards the back and they had the girls doing some sort of shimmy kind of dancing to warm up but I was too cool for that (actually, I didn t want to hurt myself). Finally at 9 AM they yelled GO and off we went. It was a loop course that I have run many times before so I was very familiar with the course while this was Naomi s first time. Of course, the pace which was comfortable for her was a tad slow for me but I was able to adjust quickly and not run her into the ground in the first mile. A friend of mine who I usually finished ahead of by 10 minutes was a buddy of another girl and he was in front of me yelling to people, Take my picture, I am ahead of Neal. That was tough to take being I am such an ego maniac but I thought it was important to run with Naomi and not run this guy down. It took every fiber of my being to stay back.

Well, about 1 way in Naomi is struggling so I decide to keep up a running commentary to help her out. I just start uttering all the running platitudes I could think of such as; Hold your form Stay relaxed, Roll down this little hill, etc. As I think back it is amazing she didn t haul off and belt me and ask me to shut up...

As we neared the finish line I noticed that the course was lined on both sides the last .3 of a mile with roaring crowds so I grabbed her hand so we could milk the crowd. Naomi wasn t much interested but I was basking in the applause. Then again, if I am honest about it, odds are good they were cheering for the 9

year old girl and not the broken down 59 year old man...

We crossed the finish line, Naomi was visibly satisfied with her accomplishment (I was looking for the reporters) and I was very proud of her for making it the whole way and not giving up. She was a trooper! Of course, my wife Ruth thinks Naomi deserves a special trophy just for listening to my yapping for 20 minutes...

Me, I did get a nice feeling to be able to be a part of something such as this. It was fun to be out there on a sunny day, run in a race without any pressure and be a buddy for a novice young runner. Which begs the question from Ruth about why I can t be nice to her like that ... ?

As for Naomi, I got to interview her at school as we waited for her bus to arrive. She decided to participate in the program because, I knew it would be fun, explained the rising 5th grader at Mill Creek Intermediate School.

I enjoyed being in the program but I liked running in the race the best. Naomi further stated that the group met twice a week and ran for 30 minutes plus she had to run on her own at home on the treadmill. As for the race itself I felt good during the race and I think I could have run faster. Naomi added, I enjoyed the whole experience and I hope to be able to do the program next year and run with such an outstanding buddy (I actually added that last bit...)

Naomi wrote me a very nice thank you note and gave me a gift card which was all very much appreciated. And if asked, I will gladly run with Naomi again. I too enjoyed the entire experience.

Winchester, VA -- A few months ago, a teacher on my team asked if I would be the running buddy for her 4th grade daughter who had enrolled in a program entitled Girls on the Run. The program as taken from their website Is a transformational physical activity based on positive youth development for girls 3rd 8th grade. They teach life skills through dynamic, interactive lessons and running games. The program culminates with the girls being physically and emotionally prepared to complete a celebratory 5K running event. The goal of the program is to unleash confidence though accomplishment while establishing a lifetime appreciation of health and fitness. Put me in my place &I just run for the hardware...

Being that this co-worker Wendy Lee was all but carrying me in this my first year teaching this exceptionality of students there was no way I could say no. Plus, I had been chatting for a few minutes every day with her daughter as she waited for her bus while I was

doing that most important teacher function bus duty and she was a delightful young lady.

So of course I said yes. Now they knew I was a runner and that I am approaching my 1,300 race but I think they thought I was some kind of stud runner which is about as far from the truth as one can get (then again, my embellishment of my racing every Saturday might have nudged them to think that ...)

But I digress...

So I registered to be the running buddy for 9 year old Naomi Lee who enjoys dancing and boy am I thankful they did not ask me to be a dance buddy &that would have been ugly &though after a few drinks I can show Fred Astaire a few moves ...

Now where was I ... ?

Oh yes, being a running buddy. The race started at 9 AM and they wanted us there at 7:30 for face painting, hair painting and other girlie activities. Hey, I have 2 daughters and I vividly recall those years so I told them I

Cheruiyot, Jepchirchir Take Wins at 35th Mercedes-Benz Cotton Row 10K HUNTSVILLE, AL – Nearly 4,000 runners were on hand to compete in the MercedesBenz Cotton Row 10K and 5K races on Memorial Day. Some runners opted to run both races on the warm and humid morning. The 10K was making its 35th annual run and was once again the final event on the Running Journal Grand Prix.

As always, a great field of runners was assembled and new this year was a $5000 bonus for anyone in the male or female open divisions who broke a course record. Kenyan runner Kimuta Cheruiyot, 28, broke away midway through the race and went on to claim his first Cotton Row win. Cheruiyot, who lives in Chapel Hill, NC, ran 29:20 and was just 10 seconds shy of the course record of 29:10. That record was set

by John Wellerding in 1983.

Second place went to Patrick Cheptoek, 28, of Bowling Green, KY, in 29:46. Cheptoek had won the race in 2013. Julius Koskei, 32, of Hebron, KY, followed in third (30:46), Sammy Kiplagat, 40, of Georgetown, TX, fourth (31:05), and Robert Scribner, 28, of Starkville, MS, fifth (31:10). Brandon York, 28, of Madison, AL, was the first local runner, finishing sixth in 31:15. Michael Eaton, 26, of Louisville, KY, was seventh (31:22).

Sophy Jepchirchir, 20, a Kenyan, who also trains in Chapel Hill won the women’s race in 33:46. She also missed out on the course record, set by Silvia Skvortsova in 2007, by 26 seconds. Another Chapel Hill runner, Susan Jerotich, 27, was second in 34:06.

Third place went to Lilian Mariita, 26, of Hebron KY, in 34:29.

Cynthia Jerop, 19, of Grand Prairie, TX, was fourth (35:33), Joan Tangwar, 24, of Chapel Hill fifth (36:11), Marion Kandie, 28, of Bowling Green, KY, sixth (36:17), and Jeannette Faber, 32, of Nashville, TN, seventh (36:37).

Fourth place Kipligat also won the masters race in 31:05. Malcolm Campbell, 43, of Marietta, GA, was second in 33:50. Steven Wilcox, 43, of Cumming, GA, was third (36:05), Jeffrey Zickus, 40, fourth (36:13), and 55-year-old Armando Manquez of Belzoni, MS, fifth (36:50).

Lyubov Denisova, 42, of New York, NY, was the Kimuta Cheruiyot female masters winner in 37:37. Deanna Newman, 43, of Birmingham, AL, was second in 39:33. Tina Eakin, 43, of Huntsville was third (42:38), Rebecca Byers, 41, of Owens X Road fourth (45:28) and sixty-one-year-old Victoria Crisp fifth (46:02).

A 5K was also held with Josh Whitehead, 35, of Madison, AL, taking the win in 16:14. Whitehead also finished ninth in the 10K, running 32:15. Neta Ezer, 32, of Huntsville was the women’s 5K winner in 20:08. Ezer won her age group in the 10K in 40:41.

Christopher Butler, 43, of Grant, AL, won the male masters race in 18:54 and Susan Adkins, 46, of Madison, AL, led the females in 21:43.

Ten runners completed their 35th consecutive Cotton Row 10K run: Charlie Vanvalkenburg, 57 (Huntsville), James Carroll, 63, (Dickson, TN), Don Hillis, 57, (New Market, AL), Kevin Jose, 53, (Huntsville), Jon Turner, 66, (Gainesville, FL), Bill Albritton, 59, (Huntsville), Bill McDowell, 60, (Huntsville), Joanie Bell, 66, (Huntsville), Gary Deere, 69, (Bellevue, TN), and Betty Byrne, 74, (Athens, AL).
