Your Biggest Fan Running is a very physically and mentally demanding sport which places stress on all body systems, which, in turn must respond and adapt, such as the cardiovascular, muscular, nervous and endocrine systems. No question about it, running places great demands on the human body.

However, these demands are really what draw many people to the sport of running.

The feelings of positive self-worth that are achieved after a long training run or hard race keep runners coming back for more.

In many instances these positive feelings are a result of working through some physical discomfort and not allowing the discomfort to become a negative factor in reaching a running goal, such as a particular time in a race or distance covered in a training run. Yes, runners can endure some pretty intense physical discomfort and overcome the discomfort in order to reach their running goals. The shear exhilaration of achieving goals in running make the physical demands of running well worth the cost.

On the other hand, there is also the mental discomfort that can come with running. A poor performance, injury, or goal not achieved can lead to feelings of guilt, depression and anger. When these negative mental states occur we often need a close friend or spouse to help us think more rationally and lift our spirits. Good friends are good friends because they offer encouragement and support in difficult and challenging points in life. Good friends lift us up, not bring us down.

Why then do so many runners mentally punish themselves with personal putdowns about their running? All too often runners berate themselves with negative self-talk that lowers confidence and motivation. Negative self-talk like, “my race was so pitiful that it's no use training anymore,” “I just have no talent and I'll never improve,” “my running stinks and that makes life stink,” or even “that's it, I quit.”

Sound familiar? Yes, runners can be quite hard on themselves! Would you talk to your best friend or spouse like you talk to yourself? Probably not!

Following a poor race most runners wouldn't tell their best friend they stink as a runner and have no talent. However, many runners will tell themselves they stink after a poor race. Most people would try and encourage their friends, so why won't they work to encourage themselves?

Runners need to work on being their own biggest fan and friend.

By Richard Ferguson, Ph.D.

Self-deprecation in runners can be a huge roadblock to reaching running goals and running potential, not to mention getting the most personal enjoyment out of running. Positive mental attitude is not a substitute for hard training, but it takes both mental and physical fitness to run well. Enjoyment from running requires a healthy attitude, so why not take a few minutes a day of attitude adjustment training?

Some runners say they feel “pressure” to run their best every time out. Truth is, when runners feel pressure the pressure is actually coming from within. How often do people take a healthy, enjoyable activity like running and turn it into work?

When runners take the sport so seriously that they constantly dwell on it and become angry with themselves and others after less than desired performances, then just maybe a change in perception of running is warranted.

It's the American way to believe that working harder and harder will result in success. In many cases this idea is true. If trying harder means putting in a few better-planned miles or trying to push a little harder in interval workouts, then trying harder can be a positive. But if trying harder means being constantly uptight and tense, then possibly trying harder is more of a negative than a positive. Yes, runners can try too hard and it can turn them into emotional wrecks. Anxiety and negativity do nothing but drain valuable energy.

All runners have disappointing performances, even when they are well trained. There will be days when even the greatest runners in the world just don't feel well and turn in performances that really disappoint. It's only human nature to feel dejected after a bad race, but should it really make runners feel like bad people and ruin their lives for days to come? What all runners need after poor performances are friends that can provide

Distance Memories Curtain Call: the Final Marathon My first was in Gainesville. Now I can say that about my last. I wouldn't want it any other way.

So much has happened since that first time back in 1979. The Florida Gator football team became a force to be reckoned with. Even the Florida Gator basketball team has made its mark on the national landscape of collegiate sports.

Enrollment at the University of Florida has more than doubled. Way more, in fact; perhaps the allure of National Championships and year-round sunshine deserves some credit. And the 'first' I referenced earlier -- the Florida Relays Marathon -- no longer exists.

I was a 24-year old graduate student who had never run farther than 13 miles.

I knew more than doubling that mileage would be a challenge, but I had no idea how much of one. I finished my first marathon that day with barely six months of running under my belt, and now one month shy of 37 years later I can say I finished my last. Sadly, 1979 would also be remembered as the last edition of the Florida Relays Marathon.

But I didn't run my last marathon alone.

Flashback to one year earlier; my son Josh and I were on the starting line of the 10th annual Five Points of Life Marathon in Gainesville, Florida. He asked me to not only run it with him but also to pace him to a sub-four hour finish. Although cautioning him he was being a bit optimistic with his time goal, I reluctantly kept him on pace to break four hours. For 18 miles, that is because I was no match for what came next.

Josh came down with a bad case of the cramps from hell. Josh slowed down, walked and finally hobbled the next four miles before finally taking a swan dive in the shade of the medical tent at the 22mile mark. One of the volunteers - a retired doctor, incidentally - tended to Josh immediately, providing fluids and ice and making sure he was comfortable. He also gave him a litany of advice, most notably 'your first marathon will have to wait.'

Josh's eyes lit up. 'I have to finish.'

The good doctor looked at me and asked, 'What do you think, dad?'

Josh knows me well enough to know that if I told him I thought it best he stop that I would be lying through my teeth.

I'm just not very good at practicing what I preach when it comes to saying no or moderation to all things running. “I'm not the man for that,” I said.

By Scott Ludwig

race that my intention was for it to be my final marathon, looked at me and said: “It looks like you have one more marathon left to run.”

Being the most susceptible person in the world to the power of suggestion, I immediately knew Josh spoke the truth.

That explains why I kept my mileage up I would run more than 3,700 miles over the next 12 months-when all I really wanted to do was reduce my mileage to something more appropriate for a man approaching middle age (assuming I'll live to be 120, that is).

Twelve months later and there we were: On the starting line for the 11th annual Five Points of Life Marathon in Gainesville on a warm February morning.

Josh hadn't put in the mileage like I had, but then again his legs are half as old as mine and have a lot less wear and tear on them. I guess what I'm trying to say is we were pretty much on equal ground, and this year our one and only goal was to finish like a seat on an airplane during landing. (“In an upright position.” I apologize if I lost any of the University of Georgia graduates that made it this far.)

Running with our good friend Ferit Toska, himself a three-hour marathoner, I have to admit it turned out to be one of the most pleasant and enjoyable 26.2-mile runs (if that's even possible) I've had in a very, very long time.

We took occasional breaks at the aid stations, took in all of the sights and even managed to synchronize all of our pit

To my credit, though I DID add: “But he is probably right. You're in an awful lot of pain and there's always another marathon.”

Josh, to HIS credit and as testimony he has a lot more common sense than his dad, decided to take the good doctor's advice and call it quits after 22 miles and almost three-and-a-half hours under a warm Florida sun. As there was no sag wagon to transport Josh to the finish it was up to me to finish out the last 4.2 miles, get in the car and drive back to the medical tent to pick him up.

A little over an hour later Josh and I met up with Cindy (who also saw me finish my first marathon) near the finish line for some post-race pizza and fluids when Josh, who knew prior to the start of the CONTINUED ON PAGE 10

He Said, She Said How Can the Pedals Win Running Medals?

A recent six-hour road trip to Hilton Head, South Carolina, landed me at the Beach City Health and Fitness Club where a full weekend of indoor cycling awaited. The bike had become my new best friend earlier this year while working through a plantar fasciitis injury. Instead of lacing up for weekly runs, I began clipping in for daily rides. During one day's ride, I learned of a new high intensity interval training program that was specifically designed for the bike - Les Mills Sprint.

The Les Mills Sprint training program is structured to help athletes become stronger, faster, and fitter, all while burning calories and increasing overall lung capacity. These are all goals I work to achieve as a runner, so I was excited about seeing if the program delivered. As the certification training program started that first morning in Hilton Head, I learned that I was not the only runner whose curiosity had been peaked.

Fellow runner and Sprint Certification Trainee Tony Bryant also wanted to know … as a runner, how can Sprint make me faster, how can it make me stronger, and (having gone for the gold in the past and desiring additional hardware moving forward) how can the pedals really help win more running medals?

He (Tony Bryant) said…

“If you have visions of PRs dancing in your head then you need to mix things up with speed work. Performing interval

training, or hill repeats, on hard surfaces, like roads, can produce great results but they can also create a lot of pounding force on your joints. That's were a program like Les Mills Sprint comes into play,” 39-year old runner, cycling instructor, and US Bankruptcy Court Senior Systems Administrator Tony Bryant said.

In 2006, Bryant stopped smoking and started running. In the years that have since passed, he has completed five marathons, four half marathons, and an Olympic distance triathlon (Nations Tri in DC) along with various 5k, 8k, and 10k races. To date, his best marathon is a 3:38:19 achieved at the Mercedes Marathon in Birmingham, Alabama and his half marathon PR is a 1:43:15.

With plans to bring in his 40th year with two more marathons, his first century bike ride, a half Ironman, and a 40-mile ultra, Bryant is always looking for ways to keep training fresh and effective - both for himself and for his students.

“I know a lot of runners where all they do is run. They have set distances and set routines that they follow week in and week out. They have run a few or maybe 50+ races of varying distances but seem to always stay at the same pace and never really move beyond their long standing PRs. The endurance we build with our long steady runs is a very important part of our training plans but it shouldn't be the only part,” Bryant shared.

Through his training, Bryant learned firsthand that Sprint can certainly be speed work for runners with the added benefit of being low impact on “already heavily worked joints.” He explains to his students that, the program's high intensity interval training (HIIT) works both type 2, as well as type 1 muscle fibers, and it increases the maximum amount of oxygen muscles can consume per minute.

Both benefits are key factors that allow runners to run faster for longer, but can

you really strength train on a bike?

“Yes! On an indoor cycle bike, you can use the resistance to simulate the effects of lifting weights with your legs. In some areas of the workout we are pushing the pedals with the same force we should feel when doing a heavy squat or leg press,” Bryant explained.

Bryant incorporates Sprint-providing strength training in his training regimen twice each week. Understanding the importance of balance that cross-training provides, he also teaches two to three cycling classes between his four weekly runs.

While Bryant loves the freedom of being able to “throw on a pair of shorts, lace up and run,” he understands the many benefits of one of the best forms of cross training, cycling, and encourages other runners to realize the related rewards as well.

“Try it! Don't be afraid of branching out and trying new things,” Bryant said. “The simple truth is you will get stronger, faster, and be proactive at preventing injuries if you switch it up and incorporate new things into your workout like jumping on a bike a couple of times a week. It also helps keep your workouts fresh and gives you a new experience to look forward to each week. Just remember to always pedal hard!”

She (Mary Marcia Brown) said…

Rewind several years, and both successful instruction of indoor cycling and rewarding road races were wonderfully weaved into my workout regimen. By rou-

Mary Marcia Brown teaching a recent Les Mills Sprint cycling class.

tinely combining my running miles with miles on the bike, maybe one could confidently and correctly conclude that crosstraining made me a better runner. Maybe the pedals really did help me win more running medals.

As an injured runner of more than three months now, the goal is more about having the rubber return to the road than it is about the ribbon around my neck.

Granted, the hardware would be a welcomed bonus, but I am really just ready to run!

This period of active recovery however, will hopefully help me discover how true the many claims are about cycling assisting runners' realization of stronger, faster, less injury-prone runs. I optimistically look forward to, strengthened complimentary muscles, faster leg turnover, less injury due to lower impact, and an increased VO2max.

Completing the Les Mills Sprint training, earning my certification, and teaching high intensity interval training classes on a bike have certainly seemed to serve as effective steps in achieving these goals over the past several weeks. I am challenging my legs on the bike, enjoying really strong training sessions, and looking forward to seeing how the revolutions per minute transfer to steps per minute in my running shoes.

I certainly believe that cadence on a bike can successfully shift from the clips in the pedals, to the soles on the asphalt. I hope so, anyway, and I intend to put this month's posed question to the test very soon.

In the meantime, I am really enjoying the ride - literally. I dependably leave indoor cycling and Sprint classes emotionally invigorated and physically fatigued, and it feels fantastic. I am also helping other athletes understand that indoor cycling can be approached from multiple training perspectives and with various intended goals.

Maybe the goal is to move with stimulating music, or to imagine a destination and allow the pedal strokes to be the vehicle. Maybe the goal is to actively recover or to intensify an already-strong routine.

Or perhaps the goal is to be a stronger, faster, fitter runner and find out once and for all if the pedals can really help win more running medals. If the latter is the ambition, I auspiciously aspire to see you on the podium.

Down the Road The Big Run Do you like big races? Some folks do and some don't. Count me as a doer. I love to do big races. Of course it is funny how our ideas of big races can change. The f irst 'big' race I ever ran was the 1979 Cooper River Bridge Run, and it was huge. It was the largest race ever held in the Carolinas at the time.

There were an astonishing, to those of us there, 1,015 timed f inishers who crossed the f inish line that morning.

Then that July Kathy and I went to Atlanta to run the Peachtree10K. We had to redef ine what we thought of as a big race. Back then all the runners were not timed but the newspaper estimated that there were about 12,000 f inishers, which is probably about right. It was huge.

I ran several other big races in the 80s that were special: the Jacksonville River Run 15K, the Marine Corps Marathon and the New York City Marathon.

So what is the appeal of the big race?

For us, me especially since I always liked big races better than Kathy did, part of it was the spectacle. Where else

By Cedric Jaggers

could you see world class, famous or at least well known runners? Nowhere. If you run a lot of races, like we did, it can be easy to fall into the pattern of running the same races every year, or altering just a bit, with most races in the small to medium sized category.

Nothing wrong with that. But, to expand your horizons, you really need to run the occasional big race.

The really big races - I'm talking over 10,000 f inishers are usually in big cities. Those cities themselves are often worth the trip. And sometimes you get really lucky. The King Tut exhi-

bition was on display in Jacksonville one year when we ran the race so we didn't miss the opportunity to see it.

When we were in New York, Kathy and I ran a race in Central Park (which is a surprisingly good way to see the Park) and when we went to get some highly praised pizza, the cab driver turned out to be a music lover as I am and he recommended we swing by the Dakota where John Lennon lived. We didn't see John, no surprise there, but I always remember with disgust and horror that it was only a month later when that idiot shot and killed him right there in front of the Dakota.

I don't need to go into detail about all the things there are to do and see in Washington DC, nor in Atlanta. I will mention that if you have never taken the (overly expensive) carriage tour of Charleston, it is something well worth doing.

But what about the races? Well, if you don't know about each of these races you should. All big races are usually expensive, some are diff icult to get into (with registration limits etc.) so if you are interested in running a 'big' race it usually requires some advance planning and budgeting. That is one reason some people avoid big races.

Another is just the sheer size. Some people run well in big crowds (I did); others do not. It seems easier to me once a race starts to try to hold onto a

good group of similar pace runners.

Unfortunately you can also get too caught up in the excitement of the crowd and start too fast. I could tell you about the 4 years in a row when I got to the 4 mile mark of the Bridge Run in 23:56 and then blew up late in the race as Ed and Leon and . . . well too many others to mention passed me.

Most people come away from big races with lots of memories and stories which we end up sharing and maybe boring people with the rest of our lives.

I could tell you about the water fountain I passed out near during the Marine Corp Marathon or the possibly scary (but now funny) incident in Harlem during the NYC race or . . . well you get the idea.

If you have never run a really big race you should try at least one. You may hate it or you may like it. Or maybe like me you will love it and want to run it over and over again. I ran the Bridge Run over 30 years in a row until a car wreck made it impossible for me to run. Big races, big memories, run a big race and build your own.

This Running Life Cupid's Undie Run gives 'freezin' for a reason' special meaning If “freezin' for a reason” is a mantra for the Valentine holiday Cupid's Undies Run, the nearly 300 runners who turned out on Feb. 20 to run a mile in their underwear were runnin' and sunnin' under Raleigh's balmy late-winter temps.

They turned out in tutus and boxer shorts, tidy briefs, bras, camisoles and under pants. While the men flashed the most skin, the women, dressed as underwear models, but wearing socks and running shoes make a special kind of fashion statement.

Many runners may not recognize Cupid's Undie Run founder Bobby Gill by name, but just mention “the guy who posed for the cover of Runners' World magazine in his underwear,” and you'll witness an a-ha moment.

“We are up to 39 races,” Gill said on the phone from his office in Denver, Co. “Thirty-six in the United States and three in Australia.”

He reckons more than 10,000 runners participate annually in the Cupid's Undies Runs worldwide.

Not bad statistics, given the fact the run was started just six years ago, in Washington, D.C. by three guys who wanted to create an event to raise money to fight Neurofibromatosis, or NF, a genetic disorder causing tumors to grow on nerves and other tissues, such as bones and skin.

This team of race directors - all in their early 30s included Gill's childhood friend Brendan Hanrahan, along with Chad Leathers, an employee of the Children's

By Teri Saylor

Tumor Foundation whose younger brother, Drew, was diagnosed with NF at the age of 14 in 2001.

Hanrahan first pitched the idea in January 2010, as a fun opportunity for people to run a mile in their underwear in the middle of winter. For Gill, the idea sounded just crazy enough to capture his imagination. The run would begin and end in a bar, and just to enhance the party effect, it would be held near a holiday.

The closest upcoming holiday was Valentine's Day, so five weeks later, they launched the inaugural Cupid's Undie Run. “We had no big business plan, strategies or investors,” Gill said. “We thought maybe 100 runners would show up, but just to be on the safe side, we ordered 300 tee shirts, thinking we could use the left overs the following year.”

They were shocked when 650 people showed up on an icy, cold February day to run outdoors in their underwear. Today, more than 2,000 runners participate in the

Runners take off on Raleigh's version of Cupid's Undie Run, founded by Bobby Gill in 2010;

D.C. Undies run.

The mere mention of grown men and women running around the nation's capitol in their underwear was a media magnet and news about the D.C. run spread like wildfire.

“People contacted us. They wanted to host it in their communities, and if we felt they would be able to put on a quality event, we sent shirts over to them recruited volunteer race directors and brought them under our wing,” Gill said.

Cupid comes to Raleigh Cupid's Undie Run arrived in Raleigh for the first time on February 15, 2014.

Now in its third year in Raleigh, the run raised more than $50,000 for The Children's Tumor Fund, according to local race director, Jennifer Burnette, who is not a runner, but loves the event.

Burnette first got involved as a participant a year ago. Her stepmother's sister is touched by NF - her daughter has it.

Outfitted in a colorful bra, a bright red tutu and a pair of white platform shoes, set off by red and white knee high socks, Burnette served as mistress of ceremonies.

“The biggest challenge was soliciting donations,” Burnette said. “It was hard to convince people that this is not just some half-baked idea, but it was for a good cause.”

NF afflicts nearly 30 percent of the population worldwide. It is a genetic disorder with multiple symptoms. The most severe are tumors that wrap themselves around nerve endings and cannot be surgically

removed. NF can also affect the development of non-nervous tissues such as bones and skin and causes tumors to grow anywhere on the body.

Drew Leathers, had a particularly nasty form of the disorder.

“Drew's tumors were in the myelin sheaths around his nerves, which caused severe chronic pain,” Gill explained. “It kept getting worse and worse. In 2009, he was paralyzed and spent 183 days in the hospital.”

Drew Leathers died in August 2015. He was just 28 years old, but was able to watch the run grow, and he appreciated the effort.

“He loved the irreverent humor of running around in our undies in public and having a big party,” Gill said.

His death drilled home a new vigor to keep the run going and growing.

Close to home Kym McIntosh of Cary participated in the Raleigh run and raised $1,000 for the Children's Tumor Foundation. She has a vested interest. Her daughter, Perrie, has the disease.

“I call it the Monster Under the Bed disease,” McIntosh said. “It is a progressive disease, and you don't know what it might look like, or how bad it might become. It could be a beast, or it could be no big deal.”

Perrie has a relatively mild form of NF. With a small tumor under her top lip and a mild learning disability, she is a 19year-old student thriving at Wake Technical Community College.

McIntosh recalled the day the first alarm bell sounded.

“I remember it was Mother's Day weekend, and I was sitting in the sun reading a book for new mommies,” McIntosh said.

One chapter on birthmarks got her attention, and the book advised others to take their babies to a pediatrician if they have more than one birthmark.

“I had noticed Perrie had a couple of cute little birthmarks, and they had started to raise up out of her skin,” she said.

She mentioned those birthmarks to her family doctor who referred her to UNC hospital.

“I thought he would refer us to a dermatologist, but instead we saw a geneticist,” McIntosh said. “He explained NF and that scared me to death.”

McIntosh finds the Cupid Undies Run to be empowering. She has participated in

Learning from the Young Guns Olympic Marathon Trials Recap The spotlight, and sun, shone brightly on Los Angeles when the first athletes were selected for the 2016 Olympic team on Feb. 13. The city known for drama and story lines provided plenty of both over an exciting weekend, culminating with a dramatic 26.2 miles through downtown Los Angeles. The host hotel was buzzing with talk about the expected warm weather and how it would affect the race, but there was still plenty of speculation on who would walk away with those 6 coveted Olympic spots.

Coming into the race there were 4 clear favorites on the women's side, Olympians Shalane Flanagan and Desiree Linden were the heavy favorites while most expected Amy Cragg and Kara Goucher to battle for the 3rd spot. The men's race featured “the Big 3� of Meb Keflezighi, Dathan Ritzenhein, and Galen Rupp, the only Olympians in the field, with a dozen athletes looking to prove the prognosticators wrong and make their first Olympic team. At 10:06 a.m. the men set out under a cloudless 66-degree sky, a record high for the event. In many ways the warmer weather determined the best team for the Rio Olympics, where it is expected to be warm. After a predictably conservative opening 2.2-mile loop, the men's field was still largely in tact. As soon as the men came back through the start line to begin the first of four 6-mile loops, the women's race started in similar fashion.

The men remained steadily on 2:13 marathon pace for most of the first half, and while the relatively modest pace saw 22 men still in the lead pack at halfway, the heat would take its toll with only 3 men able to replicate that pace during the 2nd half. While the men's race would take a dramatic turn just past halfway, by mile 10, the women's field had already splintered apart. After an opening 7 miles that hovered around 2:32-2:33 pace, Kellyn Taylor went to the front with purpose, leaving only 3 other women in the lead pack by mile 10, including favorites and teammates Shalane Flanagan and Amy Cragg. Two of the other favorites, Kara Goucher and Desiree Linden, determined the pace was too fast and made the difficult decision to let the pack go.

By Ryan Warrenburg, ZAP Fitness

As the large men's pack passed the 15 mile marker, the real racing began when 2014 US Marathon Champion and North Carolina resident, Tyler Pennel, surged to the front to clock the first sub-5 minute mile of the race. Galen Rupp and Meb Keflezighi were the only athletes to cover the move and by mile 19 the trio had strung together 4 consecutive sub 5minute miles; a blistering pace only the winner would hold to the finish line. The first major causality of Pennel's decisive move was Ritzenhein, the 3-time Olympian succumbing to severe cramping that brought an end to his bid for his 4th Olympic team at 20 miles. Between mile 19 and 20 Rupp and Meb began to pull clear of Pennel, while back in 4th Jared Ward was gaining rapidly on 3rd place.

By halfway, the women's lead pack of four had become two with teammates Cragg and Flanagan working together to open up a 25 second lead on the field.

Their lead continued to grow over the middle miles of the race as Taylor lost ground. By mile 16 Linden had moved into 3rd, and said later, “I felt that that [fast early pace] was going to be unsustainable over the second half and that's where you can kind of get in trouble.�

Linden used her experience to record the fastest 2nd half of anyone in the field.

While Linden's strength in the 2nd half and Flanagan's presence in the front were no surprise, Cragg's position alongside Flanagan was with very few expecting her to be nearly a minute ahead of Linden at 20 miles.

Little changed in the women's race until mile 23 when Flanagan started to struggle in the heat. In an unusual and dramatic moment of camaraderie, Cragg slowed,

encouraging Flanagan and giving her water, all while Linden methodically cut into the duo's lead. When Linden got within 20 seconds in the final mile Cragg left her training partner, her concern for Flanagan palpable as she repeatedly checked over her shoulder before storming to the finish line for an emphatic victory. Shortly after Cragg left Flanagan, Linden passed her for 2nd to earn a spot on her 2nd Olympic team. Flanagan hung on gamely to claim the 3rd Olympic spot, collapsing in the arms of Cragg at the finish line. Maegen Krifchin of Maryland finished 7th to lead a strong contingent of Running Journal region performers.

Serena Burla of Virginia came in behind Krifchin in 8th, 2014 US Marathon Champion, Esther Atkins of North Carolina, produced a strong 2nd half to claim 11th, Lindsey Flanagan of Maryland finished 14th, Erin Osment of North Carolina was 18th, and Susan Sullivan of Virginia rounded out the top 20.

The men's race was a billed as a clash of the old guard vs. the new, and that battle was epitomized in the later stages of the race as Galen Rupp and Meb Keflezighi battled for victory. Meb did his best to shake the 10,000m American record holder, but in the end it was Rupp dominating the final 4 miles to win his debut marathon. Meb, at age 41, finished 2nd and qualified for his 4th Olympic team.

With a strong final 10k, Jared Ward powered home to take 3rd and qualify for his first Olympic team. Pennel hung on for an impressive 5th place finish to lead the men from the Running Journal region.

Matt Llano, a Maryland native and University of Richmond grad, finished close behind Pennel in 6th, and representing the US Army out of Fayetteville, NC, was Elkanah Kibet with a strong 19th place showing.

Despite the warm weather it's hard to argue with the 6 incredible athletes who earned their spot on the 2016 Olympic marathon team. When the Track and Field Olympic Trials take place over 10 days in July expect to see some familiar faces along with every bit the drama and excitement we enjoyed in Los Angeles.

Running Through the Bluegrass Pilates Proving Beneficial, Now Teaching It Over the past two years, I've seen steady improvement in my running. That comes, of course, in part from higher mileage and more consistent speed work - but I also believe my renewed commitment to Pilates has also been of great benefit. In fact, I feel so strongly about the benefits that I recently earned my instructor certification and am teaching three classes a week at Baptist Health/Milestone Wellness Center and two short sessions for my colleagues at our office.

I think all endurance athletes - and everyone who's not, too - can reap great results from a regular Pilates program.

In our world of fast fitness, Pilates serves an important counterpoint. In some ways, what Pilates isn't is as important as what it is. It is not a gimmicky piece of equipment, it is not a "get rich quick" scheme for an entrepreneur, it is not a fad.

In fact, Pilates has nearly a century of proven results and few other fitness routines can boost that type of longevity.

By Tracy Green

And, Pilates wasn't created to turn a profit or make the founder famous. When Joseph Pilates developed his method, it was to help wounded soldiers in WWI, providing an avenue for rehab and conditioning. It has been almost 100 years since he introduced his method to New York City, where it quickly became popular with ballet dancers.

Pilates continued to refine his method, but at its core it remained the same: increasing strength, endurance and flexi-

bility while maintaining spine stabilization and conscious breathing. "Pilates is driven by the mind-body connection and understanding how the body works from the inside-out," according to the manual that accompanied this course.

Pilates "stands out as a tried-and-true formula of wisdom and unwavering results," according to certified instructor and author of "The Pilates Body," Brooke Siler. "Pilates was developed to create a healthy body, a healthy mind, and a healthy life, and people are ready to heed its message of balance."

Long-time fitness professional Denise Austin writes that Pilates is one of her favorite exercises in her 2002 book "Pilates for Every Body."

"The Pilates method involves a series of exercises that place intense concentration on your abdominal muscles, particularly the deepest layer of muscles in your abdomen," she writes. "Pilates also helps strengthen and stretch the entire body from head to toe, helping you to stand taller. This unique system will create long, lean, toned muscles similar to the muscles of a dancer."

I was encouraged to pursue my teaching certification by an instructor at Baptist Health/Milestone Wellness Center, where I've been attending Pilates mat classes two to four times per week and the occasional reformer class for the past two years. An instructor for the past decade, Alex Ford summarized Pilates method this way: "Pilates is a dynamic, integrative system of exercises that center on the principles of control, precision, stability, breath, flow and concentration with a goal of building strength and establishing stretch through opposition."

The foundations of Pilates center around breath, concentration, control, centering, flow, precision, alignment and balance.

These are all cultivated through a series of exercises that strengthen and lengthen the body, improving posture and toning the entire core including abdominals, glues and back. The arms and legs also benefit, especially in advanced variations incorporating props and weights.

While Pilates published several books about his method and trained a number of instructors, he did not specifically codify his principles or establish an official training program. That has led to many variations in Pilates, but all possess the holistic mind-body approach. Mat classes may incorporate a Swiss Ball, small "playground" balls, light weights, resistance bands, foam rollers and, of course,

Pilates' "Magic Circle."

Off the mat, Pilates developed several additional pieces of equipment utilized in Pilates studios across the world, most notably the Cadillac and the Reformer.

The Wunda Chair, Step and Ladder Barrels, Ped-A-Pul and Arm Chair are also incorporated.

If you have the opportunity to take a Pilates class - mat or equipment-based give it a try. The increased core strength and flexibility will no doubt help your running. You can find great videos online, too, including on YouTube and PilatesAnytime.com. I also post regularly about different Pilates exercises on my blog and my new fitness-dedicated Facebook page.

THIS RUNNING LIFE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 6 other NF fundraisers, but the Undie Run is special.

“Events like this bring awareness to what NF is,” she said. “This money raised for research can really make a difference, not just for NF but for other tumor-related diseases, including cancer.”

Unlikely cover model Gill, looking for ways to promote Cupid's Undie Run, vowed to find a way to get on the cover of Runner's World, but in his wildest dreams could not imagine the cover shot would include his half naked body displayed on newsstands across the country Researching ways to make the magazine's cover, he discovered the second annual Runner's World cover model search, and his team convinced him to enter the contest.

“There were 2000 entries,” he said. “I didn't think I'd even have a shot at the semi-finals But I made the short list.

“When I saw my name on the list, I thought 'they actually like my story,'” he said.

He went with other semi-finalists to New York City for a photo shoot, where photographers took two sets of pictures of Gill. One set of photos had him in running clothes.

“That was part one of the shoot,” he said. “And for part two, they wanted me to pose in my undies, so I did, thinking it would just be for fun.”

Running Through the Age Groups Forced Change, Light at End of Tunnel You might have noticed I had no column in last month's edition of the Journal.

I was graciously granted a short sabbatical from writing about running because, frankly, I was completely disgusted with the thought of running!

Yes, I am injured again! I am having to fight the feeling that running has dealt me yet another unfair blow. Through the fall and early winter, my right heel felt tight and inflamed at the Achilles insertion point. Being a forefoot striker with extremely high-arched, rigid feet and having a history of Achilles issues including two bone spur surgeries and one complete rupture, my feet and heels are quite vulnerable.

After consulting with my doctor and starting physical therapy, and since I was able to run relatively normally (the heel would loosen up while running and then tighten again after rest), I chose to train through the “injury” rather than take down time.

Well, it turned out that was an idiotic idea; when I was training in late December in Linville, NC, I noticed a pain all over the bottom of my left foot, which I passed off as mere tightness but which progressively worsened to the point of rendering even walking without a limp virtually impossible.

After I arrived home in the “flatlands”, I continued to train and ignore the pain, thinking it was probably “just” plantar fasciitis and therefore no big deal. Plus, there was no way I was going to miss the opportunity to repeat my overall masters placing at the Charleston Half Marathon in January. As the pain worsened, I had more therapy and even a cortisone shot (yeeouch!!!) in my foot three days before the big race. The doc assured me that I should be just fine to run.

By Mary Margaret McEachern

As race day arrived, I was cautiously optimistic as the pain had subsided, although I knew that placing - and running under 1:40 - might not happen since I had missed several training sessions leading up to the event. I therefore decided to race “just for fun.” Well, there was no fun to be had that day.

About a mile into the race, I was in excruciating pain. Still thinking it must be a nasty case of plantar fasciitis, I reasoned that if I kept going, it would loosen and I would be able to salvage some semblance of my day. Well, that just didn't happen, and I wound up skipping and hopping on one leg for the entire 13.1 miles! After finishing, I didn't know whether to be more embarrassed by my agonizingly slow time or the fact that I was stupid enough to press on when I was in that much pain. I mean good grief! I have degrees in economics, physics and mathematics as well as a law degree. I have run for over 35 years of my life. Will I never ever LEARN?!?

Needless to say, after that race, my coach and I agreed to shut down my training, take time off, and cancel plans to run the 50K I had scheduled for early April.

That ultra was to be my first, and I had planned to chronicle my experience training for it in my spring Journal articles.

the Kelsey-Hutchinson Founders Park.

Runners are treated to a unique course dubbed the “Patty Cake”; while I am told the course is the flattest one could encounter in the mountains, it sounds challenging. At 4,118 feet, it's a bit higher than Maggie Valley, so come prepared!

The setting could not be more picturesque; Highlands is well-known for its beauty and serenity. The race is familyfriendly, with no entry fee for kids under 5 and a reduced entry fee for those aged 5-10. The course is stroller and walkerfriendly. There is ample parking and the post-race party in the refreshingly cool Highlands air sounds like a blast!

Proceeds from the Twilight 5K have funded new gym and swimming equipment for the Highlands Recreation Department and a new running track for the Highlands School. The race, with its unique features and cool running conditions, hopes to attract at least 350 runners in 2016 with an ultimate goal of at least 500 runners - over half the town's permanent population - in future years. The course is USATF certified and runners will be chip-timed. Unique awards will be presented to top three overall, masters, and grand masters and in 5-year age groups. Other perks include T-shirts, glow sticks for kids, a “finisher beer” from a local brewery, and live music among other things. So, all you other runners disappointed at the loss of Maggie Valley, come give this race a try; it sounds like a winner! Check it out at www.highlandstwilight5K.com.

My messenger of hope could not have come at a better time! Now I am inspired to run again, and can hardly wait for the go-ahead to begin training so I can experience and write more about this great sounding race, and maybe even take home one of those terrific trophies! Until next time, happy running, stay smart, and if injured or ill, by all means don't lose hope!

When my plans were derailed and I was again faced not with peaceful, wooded trails but instead doctors, x-rays, MRI's, and “da Boot,” I panicked and could not fathom the idea of even thinking about running, let alone writing about it!

Despite my terrible luck with injuries, I have never contemplated hanging up my running shoes for good, but I have seriously considered just that over the past several weeks. The foot is much better, but my coach says no running until midApril. With that much time off, I will be starting from square one after fighting for the past six years to regain my fitness after the last devastating injury. The strength work, cross training and starvation (to keep from gaining weight) are getting old, and I am not confident that these efforts will preserve my running fitness.

So, needless to say, I've been experiencing a bit of a crisis the past couple of months. In the meantime, however, I've heard from folks who read my last article about numbers of races. That article discusses the possibility that the sport cannot support so many races and, as a result, some high quality events with rich histories are being eliminated. One such casualty is the Maggie Valley Moonlight 8K about which I wrote in that article.

Then, almost like a messenger of hope encouraging me to not give up, I was contacted by Derek Taylor, race director for the Twilight 5K in Highlands, North Carolina. I had not heard of the event, but given my love for the mountains and the fact that this race sounds quite similar to Maggie Valley, I determined this to be a must-do, and a reason not to give up on Mary Margaret can be reached at mmmceachern@bellsouth.net my running yet!

This year's event takes place at 6 p.m. on August 20, and starts and finishes at

Women’s Running Record Heat Greets Olympic Marathoners in L.A. The Olympic Marathon Trials held on Feb. 13, in Los Angeles was the hottest on record as the start was 66 degrees but it climbed steadily to the mid 80's. With little shade on the course, it was a brutal war of attrition. Starting at 10:06 a.m. for the men and 10:22 a.m. for the ladies for the NBC coverage did not add to the comfort level.

The largest field ever toed the line as 211 men qualified, 86 with a marathon time and 125 with the half marathon, while 246 women qualified with 198 by the marathon standard and 48 with the half. Eleven masters women made the standard and only two men.

The men's race started and they went out in a huge group, changing leaders numerous times. Meb Keflezighi stayed near the front but many took a brief shot at the lead as the race went out at a fairly conservative pace. No one was really willing to make a decisive move with the heat and relentless sun the athletes dealt with over the course of the race. The pace proved to be one that would ultimately be fast enough to make the Olympic Team. Holding steady at 5:05 for the first half, 23 men were still in a pack at mile 15.

Southern favorite Tyler Pennel out of ZAP in Blowing Rock, NC, was feeling good and relaxed, and as his parents watched on their phones, he broke apart the pack with a 4:56 mile, then surged with a 4:50. Debutante Galen Rupp and seasoned

DISTANCE MEMORIES CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3 stops. No one ever fell behind or pulled ahead. It went by so fast it was almost painless, although 'the day after' would make it clear to Josh and I that it was anything but. Ferit is another story, but then again he's in his marathoning prime at the moment so he doesn't really count.

The highlight of the marathon was stopping at the medical tent at 22 miles and asking that very same doctor if he remembered me from last year. “Your son!” he said. “He's right behind you,” I replied.

The three of us posed for a photograph before the good doctor wished Josh well and told him he was glad he returned to give the marathon another chance. As we resumed our pace I thanked him for keeping Josh's spirits up and looking out for him twelve months earlier.

We ran (and to be honest, walked once or twice) almost four miles where we met

Olympian Meb went with Tyler but he got a nice gap on them with a 4:52 eighteenth mile and a 4:55 nineteenth mile. Tyler's move made the race but unfortunately as he later told me "ten miles is a long way"! He began cramping and Galen and Meb pulled away, then he was eventually passed by Jared Ward. This trio would go on to finish with berths on the Olympic team. Galen made the last few miles look easy as he took the win, with the ever popular Meb, at age 40 making his fourth Olympic team.

Jared Ward pushed forward for third. Tyler finished fifth in the highest finish ever by a ZAP athlete.

Over a third of the men opted to drop out at some point during the race with 105 completing the journey. It was definitely a day of attrition and most of the men looked pretty ragged as they passed me four times.

In the women's race, the end product was

the top five from 2012 finished as the top five in 2016 albeit in a different order.

Defending champion Shalane Flanagan and her training partner Amy Cragg moved to the front from the start. They made it look like a training run in their identical uniforms and matching strides. It was like poetry in motion. Kellyn Taylor took the lead for a good portion of the first half but Shalane and Amy remained near the front of the pack and were always present. Desi Linden stayed in the pack with Kara Goucher and Janet Bawcom and a host of others.

Amy and Shalane made a move and began to leave the field behind. Both had expressed a strong desire to make the team so they could continue training together.

Their coach Jerry Schumacher told me that Shalane missed a great deal of running in the fall, but then she started pushing herself hard to be at the same level of fitness as Amy. At 18 miles Amy had a bad patch and Shalane talked her through it. But Shalane realized at mile 20 that she had goose bumps and was feeling cold and not good.

Over the next five plus miles Amy encouraged her teammate and kept her updated as Desi began to close the gap. Watching the tape I am amazed that Amy did not trip as she was looking back so often. But Amy wanted redemption and as soon as she could determine Shalane could get to the finish, she took off and secured the win

up with my grandson (and Josh's newphew), Krischan, who would join us for the last 1/3 of a mile to the finish line.

While the original plan was for Krischan, Josh and I - representing three generations of our family - to cross the finish line simultaneously, my grandson sped up when he saw the finish line and had his first official 'marathon finisher' photo taken. Josh, Ferit and I crossed the finish line together that made for a memorable photo that I intend to have framed - along with his finisher's medal, of course - for him. I might do the same for myself. If I do I'll set it next to the trophy I won - the first trophy I ever won in a marathon - at the 1994 Vulcan Marathon. Josh, only nine years old at the time rode his bicycle alongside me that cold November Sunday in Birmingham, Alabama the entire 26.2 miles so the Five Points of Life Marathon wasn't the first time the two of us crossed a marathon finish line together.

My close friends had asked me prior to the marathon to post a photo on social

media once we finished. I obliged with a photo of Josh, Krischan and I - all in our Darkside Running Club shirts and sharing two medals between the three of us - and a caption stating it was Josh's first marathon … and my last.

If there's one thing I've learned in running, it's to listen to the advice of the grizzled veteran runners, a group I now consider myself a part of. Gary Griffin, a long-time friend fits that bill as well. He wrote beneath my caption: “If this is IT, what a way to go out, huh?”

I couldn't agree more.

Postscript: One day Krischan may decide to run a marathon. I will more than likely be in my 70's by then. Right now I've run a marathon in five different decades (20's, 30's, 40's, 50's and 60's), an accomplishment shared by my good friend (and another grizzled veteran of running) Al Barker. It's tempting thinking about 'one upping' him by running a marathon when I'm 70. However, he has

after placing fourth in 2016. Jerry called the entire race beautiful as the two women he had coached made the 2016 team. Jerry has managed to have two of the three ladies on the team in 2012 and 2016. Desi passed Shalane for another second place finish and Shalane crossed the line falling into Amy's arms. She required an IV to get her back on her feet and missed the post-race press conference.

Kara finished a brave fourth and told Jerry the top three were just "better today."

Janet again took fifth place as she did in 2012. Only about 25% of the women dropped out as 149 got across the line.

I talked with Tyler a few days after the race and he wished he had waited to make his move. He was a bit sore but pleased with his performance. I also spent over an hour with Jerry as he expressed absolute awe of his ladies and their drive to the finish. He restated how hard they had trained skipping the holidays and making all the sacrifices to get the job done. Amy could not contain her bright smile as redemption felt so wonderful.

The 2016 Olympic Marathon Trials had some high drama and I must admit as Shalane passed me at mile 26, I was not sure she would make it. But she proved how tough she is. I think the six athletes who made the team will make us all proud as they get ready for Rio and represent the USA. Congrats to all who qualified and ran. It was a record day for heat and number of qualifiers.

offered me countless advice about running and aging through the years and this one sticks out in my mind right about now: “It's time to rest on your laurels.”

Once again, I couldn't agree more.

My first was in Gainesville. Now I can say that about Josh's first, as well as my last.

I wouldn't want it any other way.

As a huge George Sheehan fan, I definitely see myself as “an experiment of one” in pretty much everything I do. I also feel that I am the exception to the

Rae Ann Darling Reed approaching the finish line of the 2016 Sarasota Music Half Marathon

rule, but that's a whole other story. As a running coach, I love to try different ways of training and sharing the things that have worked for me with others. I love helping others be more successful in their own training and racing experiments.

Sunday, Feb. 7 was the Sarasota Music Half Marathon, a second-year race but my first year running it. I do not believe we could have had a more windy day! Gusts were around 30 mph in some areas. On Saturday I won a local 5K and ran a total of 7 miles with warm up and cool down.

I finished Sunday's Sarasota Music Half

www.running.net Marathon only 28 seconds slower than my Masters PR which I set one week prior at the Celebration Half Marathon.

I mention these two races to illustrate the fatigue on my legs from the previous seven days. The Sarasota Music Half Marathon had us run up the Ringling Bridge twice and then finish up hill for most of the last mile into a very strong head wind. My left leg gave out just a little in that last mile so I knew the fatigue was definitely there.

To respond to the comment “I would love to know your training strategy,” I will share what has worked for me over the past year and perhaps some of it will work for you too. Keeping in mind that I am a Masters runner (over age 40) so I am not able to get away with many things I did when I was in my twenties. But at age 42 with my Masters PRs not too far from my lifetime PRs, I would say that these training methods have served me well.

I follow the Hansons Marathon Method when training for a marathon. This seems to be two to three times per year for me lately, so I am training this way pretty much year round with planned breaks after each marathon. The amazing thing about the Hansons way of training is that you still do speed work and tempo runs so it can really get you in amazing shape for all sorts of shorter races too. The speed work is basically done at your 5K race pace, what they call strength workouts are run at ten seconds faster than goal marathon pace, and their tempo runs are at goal marathon pace.

Here's where the personalization of that training plan comes in. I skip the nine weeks worth of speed workouts during the first half of the plan, replacing those workouts with a tempo run and strength/weight training. This started out as a necessity after my hamstring injury when I could not do speed work and needed to do physical therapy two to three times per week. It worked so well to not only help me recover from my injury, but greatly improved my fitness and strength.

I follow the rest of the advanced plan, including the high weekly mileage, long runs, strength runs, and tempo runs.

The physical therapy became my strength/weight training which includes single leg squats, single leg dead lifts, single leg bridges, plank rows, TRX rows, and core strengthening like pike on the exercise ball. I take four or five exercises and do three to four sets of ten repetitions for a maximum of thirty minutes of work twice a week. Proper form is critical to avoid injury and to reap the full benefits so I urge you to consult a physical therapist, personal trainer, or certified running coach like myself before jumping in to

RUNNING PSYCHOLOGY CONTINUED FROM PAGE 2 encouragement So here is a personal challenge to each of you: treat yourself like you would treat your best friend. Not to say that producing these good thoughts and feelings is always easy, but look at it this way. Would you carry around smelly, rotting fish with you all day? Of course not! Negative, self-deprecating thoughts are a lot like that fish in that they stink and do you no good whatsoever. If your run or race doesn't turn out like you want it to, then learn from it and throw it away. Don't carry bad thoughts of the race around in your head for the entire waking day.

Review your running over the past year. Do the good runs or the bad runs really stick out for you? Have you been dwelling too much on the bad ones?

Enjoy the good ones, no matter how big or how small. Remember to be good to yourself and chances are you will run faster, run longer and certainly enjoy it more.

My training strategy is this runner specific strength training plus the Hansons Marathon Method. My secret to success would be consistency. Consistent strength training and the high mileage/cumulative fatigue of the Hansons way of marathon training are what have made me strong enough to pass people into a 30 mph head wind at the end of a half marathon. I have been injury free since training this way.

Don't get me wrong, I certainly get very tired during marathon training and am always “rungry” but this works well for me and I will continue to train in a similar manner for shorter races with cutting back on the overall mileage.

Everyone is different. One training plan does not fit all. But take a proven plan that works and make it your own. Adapt, learn, and succeed. Run happy and injury free!

Masters Running Picking the Right Races, For the Right Reasons How do we pick the races that we run?

And what makes you pick one race over another?

I recently had to pick a half marathon, after the Naples Half Marathon which I had been training for was canceled due to inclement weather. My preparation for this race had included long runs on most weekends for the past few months, and I didn't want all this training to be “wasted.” A friend of mine had recommended one in Sarasota that I eventually picked, but only after researching what other options I had, including a couple of half marathons that other friends had been raving about.

Naples Half was the one I was planning to run, because it was right here in town.

This meant I could go to the starting line after sleeping in my own bed. No need to look for and pay for a hotel room, and to pack a bag and drive somewhere else the previous day. Also, friends in my running club had only good things to say about it.

The course was both fast and scenic, and the weather is usually perfect for running here in Naples in January. However the latter turned out to be far from the truth this year, which is why they were forced to cancel the race.

So clearly, I tend to prefer races that are local. I will pick a race in my own town over one that is further away, assuming the out of town race doesn't have a bunch of perks that the local race is lacking. In other words, I consider convenience an important criterion when I pick a race.

This doesn't just mean location by the way, but also things like parking, facilities (i.e. potties), and gear drop (out & back and loop courses are easier logistically, since then I can usually keep my warmups in my car during the race).

I also tend to pay attention to the size of the race. For the most part I prefer small and medium sized races, with a few thousand participants at the most. They are easier to navigate (convenience again!), and they are more likely to be organized by local running clubs and/or charities.

They may not have as much “bling” though, or “status” in the running community, compared to bigger and more well known races. And sometimes it is worth participating in a mega-race, just for the sheer experience.

It's definitely something special to run in the New York City Marathon for example, even though it means paying a high entry fee (and probably hotel), getting to the start area hours before race time, and

By Lena Hollmann

rubbing elbows with several of the 50,000 other runners both at packet pickup and during the race. Nevertheless, running New York is an experience not to be missed, for those who are lucky enough to acquire an entry via the lottery. For me it was an experience to run the Lilac Bloomsday race in Spokane two years ago, in conjunction with the RRCA Convention. There were over 50,000 runners and walkers participating here too, so it got pretty crowded on the course!

Crowded enough that I had to run slower than I was normally capable of - but still worth it.

How I pick races has changed a lot since I was younger. Because I was a relatively fast runner a few decades ago, I paid more attention to factors such as the course, and the awards. I was fast enough to have a chance to win prize money if I picked my races carefully, and I was often looking for fast courses to improve my times and set personal records. It was primarily in marathons that I had a chance to win significant money - not the big ones that attracted elite runners, but “second tier” marathons like the Charlotte Observer Marathon, or the Shamrock Marathon in Virginia Beach. I would skip a local race for one out of town if the out of town race had the potential for me to win money, a trip, or some other significant award, or if it had higher “status.” For example, I would sometimes choose the Boston Marathon over the Penn Relays Marathon (which was right in Philadelphia where I lived at the time, and usually the same weekend) because Boston was a more high profile race.

It wasn't always winning awards with monetary value that motivated me though.

Boston didn't give out any prize money in the early 1980's, “only” medals to the top 10 finishers. But the 10th place medal that I won in the 1984 Boston Marathon is still one of my most coveted awards. Even though it is only the size of a quarter!

There are several factors other than the size and location of a race, or the awards, that could determine what races we pick.

How it fits into our schedule for example, both with regards to other races, and with family obligations, work, etc. Also the “bling” (medals, T-shirts, refreshments etc.) that is provided, and of course the race distance. Maybe also whether the race is recommended by friends, or given accolades in magazines. Most friends that I talked to considered location, race distance, and how the race fits in schedulewise as the most important factors when they chose which races to run. Kathryn Gleghorn lives in the Dallas Metropolitan area, and rarely drives more than 30 minutes to a race. “It isn't worth my time to drive longer than that and then maybe walk half a mile or more to the start, to run anything shorter than a half marathon,” she said.

It seems to hold up for most of us that the longer the race, the more willing we are to travel. We are more likely to travel to marathons and half marathons than to shorter races. Maybe because even though more plentiful in recent years, these longer races are not nearly as abundant as 5Ks or 10Ks. It is also more “worth it” to make a trip to a race where we will be on the course for two hours, or maybe more, compared to a 5K which takes less than a half hour to complete for many runners.

Which brings me back to my search for a replacement half marathon after Naples was canceled. I live in Southwest Florida now, where we don't have a half marathon within easy driving distance every weekend. Not even every month. I realized I would probably have to drive for two hours or more to find one, which would also mean leaving the previous day and spending the night in a motel. There was one in Fort Lauderdale with great medals according to some friends. I googled it and discovered it was a point to point course. And it started at 5:30am, which meant I would run at least half the race in the dark. Then there was another one in Fort Myers, much closer to where I live.

But this one was also on a point to point course, and not until March. Since I wanted to run my replacement race sooner, I settled for the Sarasota Music Half Marathon on February 7. It didn't start until 7am, so I would run the entire race during daylight hours. The website depicted it as a festive race on a beautiful course, with bands playing every mile.

And it was recommended to me by a

13

friend. So Sarasota it was!

Even though race day dawned cold (by Florida standards) and extremely windy, the race was a great experience. The running was tough at times, especially when the wind was blowing at my side, or even in my face during the final mile! My finish time (1:58:20) may have been a tad better if it weren't for the wind, but probably not the placement in my age group.

Officially first, however I had three other women age 60 or older ahead of me, who won Senior Grandmaster awards. It is very competitive in the older age groups here in Florida! But this is a topic for another column.

After the race I enjoyed spending some time with Melissa McCulloch (the friend who recommended the race, and a reader of his column) and her sister over breakfast. And this was probably the primary reason I picked the Sarasota Music Half Marathon. After all, one of the main reasons I run is to connect with friends!

THIS RUNNING LIFE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8 Gill's story, and the Undie Run's success ultimately won over readers and editors. He won the contest and returned to New York City where the cover would be unveiled on NBC's The Today Show.

The editors had gone with part 2, and there was Gill, in the altogether, save for a pair of bright red briefs, in all his nearly naked glory.

“I honestly thought the undie shot would be too edgy,” he said. “But they went with it. I felt absolutely naked, but I thought it was hilarious.”

Gill was an ultra-marathon runner in his younger days, but doesn't run as much these days. Professional models or hard bodied athletes are usually featured on magazine covers. And Gill, himself would be the first to admit he's not in that category of cover model.

“I'm not in as good shape or as fast as I used to be,” he said. “Not everybody has a hard body or is lean and mean.

Most of us are just average joes.”

Gill's cover and another cover featuring a woman who had lost 120 pounds made the rounds on social media and earned an official hashtag #realrunners “My mom framed a copy of the cover and gave it to me for Christmas,” Gill said.

SPRING SHOE REVIEW W

2016

presents

S

ince I ran in my first sneakers 44 years ago, the technology has changed. More brands mean better products and safer, more enjoyable running and racing. My first real running shoes, Onitsuka Tiger Cortez, were followed by adidas Interval track spikes. My brightly colored Nike waffle racers in 1975 were a revelation. Then I broke 5:00 for the mile in Brooks’ Villanova spikes.

My first hour-run champs and 10,000m on the track were contested in Nike Pre Montreals. My 1976 Christmas Relays’ leg of 10.6 miles was run in New Balance racing flats. In 1978 I learned about Mizuno and ran in them for a while.

In the last couple of years as I built back up to two hours of near-daily walking, I’ve been in HOKA ONE ONE Stinsons, adidas Boost, and Brooks Beast. My first try in Skechers Go Walks were amazing—lighter than ever, yet great for my back!

I’m sure that you’ve got your own “scrapbooks” of shoe memories. We hope you’ll read our reviews, then visit your local running store and find the best shoes for your needs.

F

inding the best shoe for you has traditionally begun by assessing the characteristics of your feet and gait, and then matching them with the features and properties of a particular shoe.

If you had a neutral gait, then your need for specialized shoes was reduced. However, if you rolled to the inside of your foot, called overpronation, the thinking was that you required a more heavily supported shoe. This approach was based on the science and construction-based solutions of 30 years ago. The notion of overpronation, and the thinking behind it, continued until recently. The (oversimplified) idea was that overpronation was bad and required a design solution to “correct” it. Runners who overpronated risked injury if they didn’t run in shoes that employed a structure to correct the excessive motion.

The recent minimalist movement (think: unstructured shoes, thinner/minimal midsoles, zerodrop shoes, etc.) set in motion an exploration and rethinking of these longheld tenets. Yes, the use of geometry and lighter materials have improved running shoes and their performance. But more importantly, this has resulted in a paradigm shift toward the understanding that running shoes by themselves don’t prevent overuse injuries because they can’t control overpronation.

This doesn’t mean the accepted stabilizing technologies are unnecessary. They actually help resist the premature breakdown of the shoe’s structure and performance, playing a key role in the comfort of both your runs and your wallet. They just can’t stop the motion that your feet are inclined to take.

The motion of general foot types is best served, first by certain footwear properties, components, and designs, and, second by an individual runner’s preferences for fit and feel. Of the two, fit and feel trump properties, components, and designs. All feet pronate and some, depending on their movement patterns, pronate more than others. That’s why what we suggest is a starting point within the categories of running footwear styles, but it’s only a starting point.

Runners are very fond of their go-to shoes, and a large percentage of runners have been guided toward a particular shoe at the suggestion of a running specialty store. That suggestion starts the learning process for what works for the runners. With all the services your local running specialty store provides, it’s a great place to start your search.

THIS RUNNING LIFE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 13 Cupid's Undie Run has grown so large, Gill quit his job with the FDA in 2013 to run the event full time. He has hired a small staff to help.

Since 2010, his runs have raised over $12 million. The 2016 run series alone raised just under $4 million.

In Raleigh, David Baeumaler was one of the top fundraisers, pulling in $4,000. His son, diagnosed with NF at six months, has tumors on his optic nerves and hypothalamus glands.

Baeumaler moved to Raleigh from Boston recently and his son is being treated at Duke Hospital.

“He's getting excellent care at Duke and doing well,” said Baeumaler, wearing boxer shorts under a robe, and sporting a large medal for his fundraising efforts. This is his third Cupid's Undie Run. “I am thankful for this run,” he said. It raises awareness of a disease that can happen to anyone. It can be devastating to families, but the research being done is super exciting.”

For Gill, the Cupid's Undie Run is a fun way to cope with a serious issue, and having it in the wintertime gives it extra credibility.

“We want runners to get out in the cold in their undies and out of their comfort zone to honor those who live in uncomfortable circumstances every day,” Gill said.

And even the Valentine theme has special meaning.

“We value sharing love by doing for others,” he said.
