Running Psychology Motivation: Intrinsic or Extrinsic?

Most runners like to get awards at races, especially when they have run well. Even though the medals may be small and the people on the trophies made of plastic, awards are a representation of accomplishment. But what effect do awards really have on human motivation? Logically, it would make sense that an award at the end of the race would increase motivation, but what does research really say about awards and motivation?

Seems like most people like to get "stuff". Free samples at the food store, raffle prizes and yes awards at races.

There are overall awards and age group awards at most races. Personally, I still like awards, even after 47 years of running, and I would hate to see them go away. It's hard to imagine running races without awards, but from a pure motivation standpoint, lets drill down a little deeper on the subject.

Much of the research would suggest that giving extrinsic rewards, like trophies, merchandise etc., will decrease intrinsic motivation to perform an activity. Seems as if when you start giving people extrinsic rewards they give up on an activity quicker, loose interest and actually perform worse. It is especially true when extrinsic rewards begin to be given for activities that were already intrinsically rewarding. Those extrinsic rewards may undermine intrinsic motivation.

Early on in an activity, extrinsic rewards can increase motivation, but over time the extrinsic rewards may not be enough to keep people motivated. So early in a running career those medals and trophies may seems really great, but over time they may loose their appeal. There needs to be something deeper involved to keep people running. In some cases runners may actually become dependent on the rewards, which may lower their pure love of running.

Children and beginning runners seem to be especially prone to the undermining of intrinsic motivation through extrinsic rewards, like medals and trophies.

Psychology would tell us that giving everyone a reward for participation is good to develop interest in an activity, but these rewards should be gradually withdrawn. When young runners are first starting in the sport, the lure of a trophy can be a very powerful incentive. But if the trophy remains the sole reason for running, then motivation may decrease when there are no trophies at the end of the race. Too many rewards may commu-

nicate that running is not worth doing on for its own sake.

On the other hand, there is evidence that extrinsic rewards can increase intrinsic motivation if the reward gives the runner information about their competence as a runner. In 1975 psychologist Edward Deci formulated Cognitive Evaluation Theory.

He found that external rewards can indeed increase intrinsic motivation if the rewards give feedback on how competent or "good" someone is an activity. But he also reported if humans feel they are being controlled by rewards, the rewards can lower intrinsic motivation. Humans don't like to feel controlled by dangling a carrot in front of them all the time! So those trophies and medal can indeed increase intrinsic motivation if they are viewed as a symbol of doing something really well, reaching a goal or having some competitive success.

So what can be gleaned from this?

Should awards be eliminated at races?

Certainly not! Awards can be tokens of achievement. They can bring back memories for many years to come. But awards just can't be the sole motivation for running. If running is a lifetime activity there must be a pure intrinsic love for running itself. You probably run because you like to run, so that means you're intrinsically motivated to run.

To get youngsters and new runners involved in the sport, extrinsic rewards can be a strong tool to help them develop an interest. But always stress to new runners the positive, intrinsic aspects of running. Running for the shear enjoyment of it, being outdoors, friendships developed, stress reduction or just because it makes you feel good will increase the chances of running being a positive, lifelong activity.

After a well run race it is very nice to get a trophy or medal. The award is recognition of success after many miles of training and a race well run. It can be a

After the Run From Setbacks to Setting Running Records Sydney Devore may not be a name you have seen before, but it is likely a name that you will see again ... and again and again, as the twenty-five-year old Lakeland, Florida resident establishes ambitious running goals and crushes personal running records along the way.

Devore began running as a high school sophomore. At the time, she viewed the sport as “just another addition to [her] college application.” It did not take long however, for her to realize that running was really going to play a special role in her life.

“As I progressed through high school, I continued to improve and it wasn’t long before I was being recruited by colleges both in and out of state. That was something I hadn’t even considered,” Devore recalled.

With her body transformed, her social circle expanded, and her love of the sport in tow, Devore packed her bags and set out to attend and run for the University of Florida, because it was number one in the nation at the time. Sadly, tendinitis and a stress fracture struck Devore early in her college running career.

“I was a freshman when I got injured. I never even got to run an outdoor track season,” Devore said.

She immediately turned to cross-training

Sydney Devore running the Dark Side Half Marathon.

in an attempt to stay in peak fitness, but her emotions took the driver’s seat — and the wheel.

“After leaving the UF team, I lost all hope. I quit exercising entirely for almost a year,” she said.

She also stopped running for four years.

That changed when she moved back to Lakeland in 2015. Upon returning to Lakeland, Devore also returned to the helm of her victorious running vessel. She reached out to two ladies from her high school team, and they began running together a couple times each week. Soon after, Devore discovered the pub runs organized by the Lakeland Runners Club, and she decided to give those a try.

“I was surprised by how many people remembered me and I loved the welcoming atmosphere of the club. I didn’t feel any pressure to be the runner I was before.

It was so nice to just run for fun,” she said.

The fun began to fuel longer runs and more miles, as Devore resolved to run a half marathon. She raced her first half marathon in the fall of 2015 and loved the distance. Unfortunately, the joy was shortlived.

“I had another setback last fall when I got what I thought was a stress fracture in my second metatarsal. I ended up taking the whole fall/winter racing season off and had to miss my planned race in Savannah. On January 1st of this year, I started yet again, but this time I was better prepared and I had a plan. I increased my mileage VERY slowly and did almost all of my runs on trails. I started taking calcium and took better care with nutrition, stretching, and recovery. I did no speed work for the first three months and just focused on slowly increasing miles at a moderately easy pace,” Devore shared.

Her strategic plan and discipline worked.

She raced the Beach Halfathon in Fort Desoto, Florida in March and beat her personal record by 3 minutes, when she ran through the finish in a time of 1:25. A month later, she beat that personal best by running a 1:20 at the Star Wars Dark Side Half.

“I couldn’t believe it. To take 5 minutes off my PR in just a month was really exciting. It was this race that made me realize I needed to get serious. My body is still responding really well to the training and I am feeling like there are no limits right now,” Devore said.

Certainly, no limits appear to be in sight for Devore — and not just with the half marathon distance. In May, Devore decided to revisit the first 5k race she ever ran — Lakeland’s Mayfaire 5k. It was that race that originally sparked Devore’s interest in running cross country in 2006.

This year, she sprinted through the finish line in a jaw-dropping time of 17:15, which was yet another personal recordsetting race.

“I thought it would be nice to see where my speed was at. Most elite female half marathon runners have some pretty impressive 5K times (sub 17 minutes), so I was curious where my training would put me in such a short distance,” she said.

With the summer months now in full swing, Devore plans to ramp up her training to 100 to 120 miles per week, as she prepares to run the Rock and Roll Half Marathon in San Jose in October. Her hope, is to knock out a sub 1:18 finish in the half before, optimistically, qualifying for the 2020 Olympic Trials when she races the Houston Marathon.

“My “long-term” goal is to compete in Tokyo in 2020,” Devore shared.

The teacher, who has lived and taught in Busan, South Korea, backpacked across Southeast Asia with her husband, and who continues to be a voracious reader, also has some log-term personal goals. Not surprisingly, they are not void of the sport that holds her heart.

“I would like to own a running store/café where runners can gather, hangout, talk training and chow down on healthy local food. I would also like to coach other runners.”

Before then however, Devore is continuing to lace up, train smart, avoid any injuries and running setbacks, and set a surfeit of running records during her intended road to Tokyo.

(Editor’s note: After this story was written, Devore PRed once again at the Safety Harbor, FL BDR 5k race, placing First Overall Female with a 16:50.)

Learning from the Young Guns Marathon Recovery After the New England Patriots won the Super Bowl. I remember reporters asking Tom Brady how he planned to celebrate his win, how he managed to engineer the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history, what he was thinking when Juilan Edelman made his circus catch, and a host of other questions about the game. What I don't remember anyone asking him about was his recovery plan for the few weeks following the game, aside from maybe going to Disney World. As runners, it's easy to be excited about a big race, even about training in the anticipation of performing well or running a personal best.

The recovery that comes afterward is far less inspiring. As evidenced by Tom Brady's press conference, it's much more exciting to revel in the glory of finishing a marathon or running a quick 5K. However, recovery after a key race is an important part of staying healthy and progressing in the next training cycle.

Proper recovery is a relative term dependent on both the athlete and the event. The marathon, for example, requires a different recovery protocol than the 5K. The recovery after a marathon is critical, perhaps more so than any other event because of the significant toll 26.2 miles racing on pavement takes on your body. After some marathons it can hurt to walk for a week or more while others you may feel great within a couple of days.

The marathons where we've had the best training and we race intelligently are often the best performances and easiest to recover from. Those races are also most likely to leave you with the desire to keep racing in order to capitalize on the positive momentum and good fitness. After all, why wouldn't the good results just keep coming?

Many of us have been victim to that logic, and it is often the fatal flaw that hinders the coming months of training and racing. Most of us know the logic behind having hard days and easy days. How well we adhere to it is another matter, but the basic premise is when you work hard your body needs to recover in order to grow stronger. This fundamental training theory is called super-compensation and it's applicable over a wide range of sports.

Take weightlifting for example: most of us have lifted weights and experienced the resulting muscle soreness. If you lifted one day, came back the next day and tried to lift the same amount of weight your sore muscles wouldn't be able to do it. The soreness is the muscles breaking down,

rendering them temporarily weaker. As your body heals and you continue to lift weights with proper recovery, you build strength to a level greater than where you started.

The same theory applies to distance running: when you pair rest with hard work, your body builds fitness and gets stronger. However, if you don't allow for adequate rest your body will continue to break down, and you'll see performances taper off and decline, or worse, you'll end up injured or burnt-out.

By any standard, your body experiences significant breakdown during a marathon.

That can be mitigated with proper training, but recovery is still important. For experienced marathoners who have a history of recovering quickly, I advise taking a week of no running following a marathon. Incorporating walking or swimming to gently move your legs and muscles will help facilitate recovery, but it's best to avoid the impact stress of running. For less experienced runners or those who are still feeling significant soreness or aches after one week, it's best to take 10-14 days rest, but again, incorporating walks or light cross training will help the recovery process. Regardless of whether your first run is 7, 10, or 14 days after the marathon you should use the 710 days following your break to alternate between a short, easy run and a rest day.

Then the following week move to two days of easy running followed by one rest day. After that you should be feeling back to normal and ready to resume regular training. You should avoid any hard workouts for four weeks after a marathon to ensure proper recovery.

There is a misconception that with that much recovery you'll lose the fitness you worked so hard for. The truth is you will briefly lose a little fitness, but within a few weeks of regular training you'll be back to that level of fitness and beyond.

Recovery is what allows for the supercompensation effect to occur, and whether

it's alternating hard days and easy days or hard blocks of training in preparation for a marathon with a rest block afterward, the same principle applies. Recovery is what makes us better, without it we're never able to realize the gains of hard work.

Even if you're not racing the marathon and are running shorter races intermittently throughout the year, taking structured rest breaks is important. Every 16-20 weeks you should plan on taking a structured break where you take 1-2 weeks of rest followed by a week of alternating a short, easy run with a rest day. In training for short races your body doesn't experience the same acute beating it does during a marathon, but the accumulation of training has a similar effect. Taking structured rest 2-3 times a year allows for improvement from training cycle to training cycle, reduces injury risk, and helps avoid performance plateaus and burnout.

Recovery is often overlooked and underappreciated in a culture where the answer to getting the result you desire is to almost always work harder. There is no doubt hard work is important, but if you're working hard and you aren't getting the

Inspired Daily Tom Orehowsky: Coach, Mentor, Friend Instead of focusing on one of my many running adventures, I decided to dedicate this month's column to a man who has done so much for the sport of running in Manatee County, Florida. Tom Orehowsky has been part of my life since he coached my sister in high school in the mid 1990s and then hired me as his assistant coach in 2003, and since then has been an incredible mentor and friend.

Tom Orehowsky started running on his own during high school and college. He had to work so he was not able to run on his school teams.

He ran competitively after college in local road races, mostly in the Tampa/St. Petersburg area.

Tom moved to Manatee County and started running there. In February 1977, he was hit by a car when finishing a training run. He suffered severe compound fractures and thought he would lose his ankle. Thankfully, his surgeon was able to put most of the pieces back together and save his ankle. His fast running days were over and that's when he became known as the “slogjogrTO” on AOL. His favorite races are the 5K in cross country, 1600 meters in track, and the Gasparilla 5K. Even when he was too busy to run much, he still made time for Gasparilla with friends.

Tom started coaching in 1965 right out of college at St. Joseph's Middle School in Bradenton, Florida. Next he taught and coached track at Central Clearwater Catholic High. In 1969 he began his long career teaching at Manatee High School. For the first five years he taught, but did not coach, because he worked seven days a week. Then in 1976 Coach Orehowsky started coaching boys cross country at Manatee High School. The girls program did not start until the 1980s.

Tom's background in coaching was mainly in the sprints so he picked up a copy of the “Handbook for Coaching Cross Country and Running Events” and started reading that book, plus articles in Running Times and Runner's World written by Roy Benson and Don Kardong. He made friends with other coaches to learn all he could.

Coach O. inherited some good runners when he first took over the program and was fortunate to have knowledgeable team parents. He went to every coaching clinic he could. The more he learned, he thought “Distance runners are crazy, why would I want to be one?” But distance running became an outlet for him, a time to be alone with his thoughts. Then in 1990 he attended the Smoky Mountain Running Camp (SMRC) and fell in love.

In 1994 Coach O. joined the SMRC staff, where he learned to be a better coach for his own teams. Also of note, Tom was the club advisor for the award winning Interact service club at Manatee High School from 1975 to 2002.

Three things that changed Tom Orehowsky's life were the car accident, when his wife passed away, and Smoky Mountain Running Camp.

Coach O. retired from teaching and coaching in 2004 (the year after I started as his assistant coach) and in his last year of coaching, left

some big shoes to fill as the 2003 girls' cross country team won County, District, and Region, and placed seventh at State. It was the first time the team had ever been honored on the 50-yard line at a home football game.

And if all that were not enough, his contributions to running in Manatee County go on. Tom has been a volunteer with the Bradenton Runners Club since 1992. He started helping out with road races in 1993 and is the founder of the Labor Day Canes Cross Country Classic (which is still our MHS cross country team's fundraiser). Tom left his first board meeting as treasurer and race director. He, along with club president Alan Meyer and a small group of members saved the club from folding back in the mid 1990s.

Coach O. has so much to be proud of as he has been running, coaching, and volunteering for a quite some time, so I asked him to narrow it down to his top three proudest achievements: 1) As a runner, Tom cherishes finishing his first 5K with his cross country team on July 21, 1995 at the Night Moves 5K in Ybor City, Florida. During that race he was inspired by a man he met at the half mile mark who was running on a prosthetic leg who said to Tom “if I can do it, you can do it.” The two finished together.

2) As a coach, Orehowsky values the opportunities he has had to interact with, and have an impact on, young people and to meet and work with men like Roy Benson. Coach Benson helped Tom become a better coach and taught him to push the girls' team to work at a higher level than previously thought possible. Ed Lopacki (a team parent) urged him to seek out a running camp and other successful girls' coaches to gain insight as to what girls are capable of and how to push them. For Coach O., a key takeaway from running camp was that if you want to make it to State, the training starts in June. 1990 was a significant year in his coaching career after attending camp and learning from Benson. Tom coached four state champions in the 1600 meters in track with two being in the same year (1995). And in his last year coaching (2003) the girls won County, District, and Region, and placed seventh at State in cross country.

3) As a volunteer, you'd be hard pressed to find someone more dedicated than Tom Orehowsky. He has served as the executive race director for the Bradenton Runners Club (BRC) for more years than I can remember and

in 2008 was honored with the National RRCA Volunteer of the Year award.

Tom has lived in Manatee County for most of his life, a graduate of Manatee High School (MHS), married and raised his kids in Bradenton, and taught at MHS for 36 years. His devotion to his community is strong and he enjoys giving back. Coach O. tries to give back to the community as much or more than what he has received over the years.

Through the BRC, he has been able to help many non-profit organizations with 5K fundraisers. The passion that drove him to teaching, service work, and coaching, continues to drive him today in his role as an FHSAA and USATF official. Tom enjoys making the time to help others as his community has helped him and his family during some of the most difficult times in his life. MHS, the BRC, and the service club have been there for him and he is privileged to repay the favor. Tom's biggest joy in being a race director is when people come up and thank him because it gives him the opportunity to give credit to the volunteers who made it happen.

Coach Orehowsky has seen many changes in the running community over the years, including a large increase in the number of 5K, 10K, and half marathon races every weekend. In Manatee County it is becoming more difficult, because of development, to find places to hold races. There is more construction but less infrastructure so there are very limited areas in which to set up safe courses. There are fewer local races in Manatee County because of the difficulty in finding safe locations to hold races.

Tom also sees the Bradenton Runners Club having a bigger impact in certain areas of our community, i.e., the BRC Turkey Trot. It started in 1989 with Gary Algozzine and 10 of his running buddies and now it is a Thanksgiving Day tradition with over 1,000 participants and benefits the food bank, Turning Points, and Meals on Wheels while still being a race with no entry fee or awards.

With all those years of experience, I had to ask Tom to share a few words of advice. Simply and eloquently stated, he tells us runners to enjoy it while we can as long as we can. For Orehowsky, “running is a lifelong experience, ongoing accomplishment, and stress reliever.”

He had more fun running with the BRC on Tuesday nights than almost anywhere. For the coaches, he reminds us to cherish working with young people who want to be there, not because of awards or praise, but for the personal goal. It is a privilege to help young people develop a love of running and watch them learn that running makes you feel good about yourself.

A few of Coach O.'s favorites include the book “Once A Runner” by John L. Parker, Jr., the movie “McFarland, USA,” and this Forest Witcraft quote: “A hundred years from now, it will not matter what my bank account was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove ... but the world may be different because I was important in the life of a child.”

Tom started as my sister's coach, became my mentor, and is now a dear friend. My life would not be what it is today without him. If he hadn't told our MHS Principal that he had to hire me, who knows what my life would look like. I am beyond thankful for Tom Orehowsky as I think about all the lives I have influenced and those who have influenced me while coaching at MHS over the past 14 years.

I try to follow Tom's example, as we all should. In his words: “Enjoy the opportunity to give of yourself, enjoy the company of those you run with, learn from other runners and coaches. When we put on those running shoes and hit the road, we are all equal and can appreciate each other's accomplishments, regardless of pace.” And whether it is running, coaching, teaching, volunteering, or anything in life, really, Tom's advice is “just go do it and enjoy it; whatever it is.”

Distance Memories Podcast Fodder I was asked to appear on the East Coast Trail and Ultra Podcast by one of the hosts, Ryan Ploeckelman. I asked what we would be talking about. ‘Running and sh*t.’ I told Ryan he was in luck because I just so happen to do both.

Ryan told me Sean Blanton was the other host of the show. I first met Sean several years ago when he won one of our Darkside Running Club holiday marathons in Peachtree City. Sean, or ‘Run Bum’ as he is known in running circles, could be the poster boy for the phrase ‘free spirit.’ I have a special respect for Sean because he’s done a few runs that remind me of some of the crazy things that I did when I was closer to his age. (Confession time: I still do them; just not as fast as I used to.)

As for Ryan, he’s got that distinctive ‘disk jockey voice’ that catches your attention and won’t let go. Ryan and Sean complement one another perfectly and it was evident they had done their homework prior to my interview. Well, most of it anyway.

They started the podcast by asking me about my 38+ years of running every day and that my streak was old enough to legally drink a beer. “Do you remember the last

By Scott Ludwig

day you didn’t run? What made you start your streak? Do you know I wasn’t born when you started your streak? Have you ever been injured?”

The only question they didn’t ask—and I hear it from people all the time is this: Don’t you feel better after you take a day off?

(Answer: I wouldn’t know.) I know they were doing their best asking those questions but I also know this: I don’t enjoy being asked about my streak. That’s the homework they failed to do. If you have to ask me about my streak you wouldn’t understand, and there’s no way in the world I can explain it in such a way that it makes any sense. So if you were planning on asking me about it, there’s really no need.

They asked about some of my favorite races, how the Darkside Running Club came to be and how ultras have changed since the first one I ran in “1995.” I corrected them and said my first ultra was in the ‘80’s. They said Ultra Signup (where they found out about my racing history) only dated back to 1995, thus putting an exclamation point on their previous comment about not being born when my streak began.

As for how I answered those three questions: (1) I was very fond of the former Vulcan Marathon in Birmingham, particularly the Twinkies and champagne at the 10mile aid station; (2) Al Barker, four others and I formed the club officially in 2002 and the membership has grown from an original six members to now over 500 members; and (3) there are so many more 24-hour events now than there was when I was in my prime as well as a lot more interest in trail (as opposed to road) ultras. As for that last answer, there’s one other bit of homework Ryan and Sean failed to do. Otherwise they would have known how much I hate trail running and wouldn’t have taken the time during my interview to talk about how much they enjoyed it. (Note: Don’t get me wrong; I respect trail running. I just don’t consider it to be true “running.” Plus I suck at it.

And I fall down a lot. A LOT.) Then again, they may have been baiting me, although I seriously doubt it: They both seem to be really nice guys doing their absolute best to produce a quality product

for runners to enjoy.

Better yet, the podcast appears to be a labor of love for them both. I’m guessing when they did their homework they found out how much things of that nature mean to me.

Which explains why it was a pleasure being on their show.

Down the Road 26 Seconds Can I start this article with a quote from my December 2014 Down the Road article?

Why not the first and last paragraphs? : 'One Hour Fifty Nine Minutes and Fifty Nine Seconds. A sub Two Hour Marathon.

Will we be seeing one of these for Christmas or anytime soon? It is a question that is being batted around due to the new World Record Marathon of 2:02:57 - a 4:41.3 pace per mile set at the Berlin Marathon this September (2014). What do you think?'

'All things considered, we probably won't see a sub 2 hour marathon before this Christmas, but we can always dream can't we? It is such a monumental accomplishment; I hope we all are around to see it when it happens.'

If you want to read the entire article, send me an e-mail asking. You'll get a copy the next day.

Flash forward to the cover of the June 2017 issue of Runner's World magazine. In bright yellow letters you'll see 1:59:59 and beginning on page 52 of the issue you will find 11 pages of coverage of the plan to run a sub 2 hour marathon. In summary it

By Cedric Jaggers

details what some people have called the publicity stunt sponsored by Nike to break the 2 hour barrier for the marathon in an event called Breaking2 .

Why do people call it a stunt? Because of all the tricks, not allowed for record courses, used to aid the effort. How about a pace car? How about a group of 30 pacers: six runners at a time (each 6 pack replacing the previous one to ensure fresh legs) in front of the 3 athletes (Lelisa Desisa, Eliud Kipchoge and Zersenay Tadese) to reduce drag for them, a bicycle rider to hand them fluids so they don't have to slow down to pick them up form aid stations? So even if

the sub 2 hour marathon had been run, it would not have been recognized as an official record by the I.A.A.F. (International Association of Athletics Federations).

In fact, the Sunday May 7 issue of the New York Times used this headline for its three column article on the attempt: Fastest Marathon Is Run, but It's Not a Record.

The article gave all the pertinent details temperature, 52 degrees - in the range of temperatures recognized as ideal for running, a tree shielded loop course and of course three world class runners. Can I point out the South Carolina connection for Lelisa Desisa? He won the Cooper River Bridge Run 10K in Charleston in 2011. He is of course better known for winning the Boston Marathon in 2013 and 2015. But he finished third in this three man event.

The attempt to break two hours actually got national network news coverage on CBS. My wife Kathy and I were surprised, and pleased to see them show footage and explain what a feat it was even though the winner fell 26 seconds short. Yes 32-yearold Eliud Kipchoge of Kenya ran a marathon distance in 2 hours and 25 seconds. An incredible feat.

Did Kipchoge think, oh man, could I have run each mile just one second faster? Can you image how he felt at 18.6 miles when he was exactly on a 2 hour flat pace? But by 21.7 miles (35 kilometers) he was six seconds over the pace, and he dropped more during the final miles.

Have you ever run a marathon and seen

13.1 miles – Coastal 5K – Doggie Dash

the finish clock with the seconds ticking off as you approach it? There is no worse feeling than seeing the minute flip over. I know how bad I felt at the Marine Corp marathon when I was hoping to run 2:50, but after passing out from the heat, waking up hugging a water fountain on the Point, and I got up and continued. But the clock flipped and instead of a disappointing 3:17:59 I had to watch 19 more seconds click off the clock before I made it to the finish line. It felt terrible to see that clock flip over. You have to feel the fantastic achievement Kipchoge performed, and wonder how he felt when the clock flipped to 2:00 for him and he still had 25 seconds before hitting the finish line.

Note the official world record is still 2:02:57 and is held by Dennis Kimetto of Kenya. So all of you reading this still have a chance to be the first to run a marathon in under 2 hours. If I did the math right, you will have to run a 4:34 mile pace for 26.2 miles. So you're going to have to do a lot of running down the road to get in shape.

Meanwhile, we all have still have something to look forward to: the day the 2 hour barrier is broken for the marathon.

This Running Life At 90, Ken Long is Still Bringing Home the Gold Ken Long was 55 years old when he ran his first marathon in 1982, but he’s not really a late bloomer. He has been active all his life, competing in “lots of sports,” he says.

At 5’7, he is an unlikely basketball player, built for speed rather than dunking, but his height has never stopped him, and to this day, he’s still going strong in the Senior Games organization. In 1995, his basketball team won the Senior Games’ National Championship. At the National Games in Birmingham last May, his basketball team finished in third place.

Then there’s race walking.

Ken holds some of the fastest race walking times in state (NC), local and national Senior Games history, including a tie for the third fastest 5000-meter race walking event in the 2011 National Senior Games when he finished in 35:29 in the 80-84 age group.

Twenty years prior, in 1991, Kurt Straus of Arizona logged that same finish time, according to online Senior Games records.

Ken Long still going …

By Teri Saylor

The records also show that four years ago, competing in the 85-89 age group, Ken charted the fifth fastest race walking time in the nation in the 1500-meter race with a time of 11:41.61. His 5K race walk times of 42:47 and 42:46 in 2013 and 2015 still stand as the ninth and tenth fastest-ever finishes in the 85-89 age group.

Youthful at 90, Ken is still rocking the race track, and still racking up the bling.

Last month, he brought home a gigantic,

and 2013 still stand in two different age groups. In the 80-84 group, his record-setting time was 9:21.05 and in the 85-89 group, his record-setting time was 11:52.91.

To be able to compete in the national senior games, athletes must qualify, starting on the local level, where only the top three male and female finishers in each individual local game may advance to the state competition. Team sports have their own rules for qualifying. State winners are eligible to move on to the National Games, which take place every two years. There have been 16 National Senior Games since the program started, and Ken has competed in 12 of them. He has won gold medals in eight National Senior Games events.

In the recent Birmingham games, singer Pat Boone, 83, entered National Senior Games event, to both sing his famous song “Love Letters in the Sand,” and to play on the Virginia Creepers basketball team in the 80-84 age division. The Creepers finished in third place.

Ken rode up the hotel elevator with Pat Boone, and reports the singer is “a very nice guy.”

Ken moved to Raleigh from Pennsylvania in 1963, and he and Herbie occupy the house he has lived in for the past 49 years He was divorced years ago, after 37 years of marriage, then reconnected with his childhood sweetheart. They wed and enjoyed five years together before she passed away five years ago. He has two sons, several grandchildren and many dear friends he knows through his church and through running. He is retired from state government.

“Throughout my life, I have been involved in different communities,” he said.

“My work community, my church community and my running community.”

Ken told me that as he gets older, the competition gets smaller due to the lack of athletes past 90. Sometimes he wonders how long he’ll continue to compete in the National Senior Games. In two years, the games will be in Albuquerque and Ken will be going on 92.

“I have said the Birmingham games were going to be my last tango, BUT,” he said, speaking in all caps. That goal is still out there for him.

“I am convinced that my physical activity has given me not only longevity, but I’m very fortunate that I have never had a painful injury or illness or anything that has slowed me down,” he said. “My health is also a gift from God.” Sometimes Ken thinks he’d like to get back into running.

Or maybe not.

Especially when he is still race walking at peak performance levels, just the way he demonstrated at the National Senior Games in Birmingham.

As breakfast and conversation were winding down, he laughed as he recalled his winning performance.

“I really did scoot around that track pretty good,” he said.

And at 90, he’s still got plenty of game in his scooter.

flashy national gold medal that rivals even the most audacious marathon medal any runner could ever dream of earning. He won it after race walking his way to the top of the podium in the 1500-meter event, coming in at 12:58.76.

Last month, Ken and I caught up over a country-style breakfast in Raleigh last month.

I’ve been writing about Ken for several years in various publications and we’ve become friends. We used to hi-five each other when we crossed paths during sweaty summer runs with the Galloway Marathon Training Program, and we still bump into each other frequently at events sponsored by the North Carolina Roadrunners Club, of which Ken is a charter member. Up until a few years ago, he was still running half marathons, but he’s not running as much these days.

He did walk the 5K race during Raleigh’s Rock ‘n Roll Marathon weekend last April.

And he loves walking every day with his little buddy, Herbie, a 13-year old Italian Greyhound. On weekends, he meets up with his longtime running buddies.

Running cultivates great friendships, and these friends have been together 38 years, ever since they started up the North Carolina Roadrunners Club. Back in those days, they trained for marathons, and even after four decades they get together regularly and hit the greenways in Raleigh, but they’re mostly walking now. And celebrating milestone birthdays. They’re still talking about their favorite races, re-telling their best stories and encouraging each other.

Along with memories, Ken still has an old sweatshirt from the Roadrunners Club’s early days, a running vest he still wears to the National Senior Games, and his old marathon training schedule.

“My first marathon was the Shamrock Marathon,” he said. The Shamrock Marathon, which takes place in Virginia Beach, was the destination race for the North Carolina Roadrunners Club. Almost all the members ran in it.

“We trained for six months and our longest training run was 18 miles. We figured the rest would take care of itself,” he said.

His marathon PR is 3:54.

In 1987, Ken participated in his first National Senior Games.

“I went to St. Louis,” he recalled. “I ran the 100, 200 and 400 yard races.”

While it was fun, it took 15 years before he started winning national medals.

Then he hit the jackpot.

“I discovered race walking and fell in love with it,” he said.

In race walking, magic happened, and Ken was able to achieve speeds below an 8minute mile pace. The state records he set in Teri Saylor, a gold-medalist wannabe, the 1500-meter race walking events in 2009 writes and runs in Raleigh, NC

EAT WELL, RUN WELL

All You Want to Know About Peanut Butter Don’t let In my humble opinion, peanut butter (PB) is one of the best sports foods around. Not only is it yummy, it is also health-promoting and performance enhancing. A review of the research on peanuts validates why I routinely choose to enjoy two (!) PB sandwiches a day: one for lunch and the other to curb late-afternoon hunger.

If you are among the many runners who tries to stay away from peanut butter because it is fattening or too fatty, think again and keep reading (as long as you are not allergic to peanuts, that is). The purpose of this article is to educate you about the value of PB in the diet of runners of ages and athletic abilities (as well as their parents and grandparents).

• PB is not inherently fattening. While any food eaten in excess can be fattening, people who eat PB (and nuts, for that matter) five or more times a week are not fatter than nut avoiders. A Purdue University study (1) reports subjects who ate peanuts daily did not overeat total calories for the day. That’s because peanuts and PB are satiating; they help you feel pleasantly fed. Peanut eaters tend to intuitively eat less at other times of the day.

• PB offers many health benefits. The fat in PB is primarily health-promoting mono- and poly- unsaturated fat that knocks down inflammation. People who eat PB and nuts five or more times a week have lower markers of inflammation than nut avoiders. For runners who get micro-injuries every time they train, an anti-inflammatory food such as PB is a wise choice.

• Compared to nut-avoiders, unhealthy women (with type 2 diabetes) who ate 1.5 oz. (250 calories) of peanuts (and/or nuts) five or more times a week reduced their risk of heart disease by 44% and the risk of having a heart attack by 60% (2). Routinely swapping a burger for a simple to make PB sandwich is a hearthealthy choice.

• PB, like all sources of plant protein, reduces that risk of developing Type II diabetes. A breakfast with PB offers a positive “second meal effect.” This means, it helps control blood glucose through lunchtime and into the afternoon. Stable energy—and a reduced desire to eat. (3) • The fat in PB helps absorb the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K. You want to include some (healthful) fat in each meal; PB is a painless way to do so! * If you are training hard repeated days in a row, you’ll optimize your sports diet by eating at least 0.5 grams fat per pound of body weight. The body stores some fat within muscle cells and uses it for fuel during extended exercise. PB in oatmeal before a long training session or a PB & J sandwich to refuel afterwards are yummy and healthy ways to enjoy adequate dietary fat. Fat-phobic runners (who avoid fat) can hinder their endurance.

• PB is a good source of arginine, an amino acid that helps keep blood vessels flexible so that blood flows more easily and reduces blood pressure. The more PB you eat, the bigger the effect on health protection.

• What’s good for the heart is also good for the brain.

Research suggests PB eaters improve their brain-blood circulation and mental function. This contributes to enhanced processing speed and better short-term memory (4). Plus, a diet rich in healthy fats helps slow cognitive decline. Given the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease increases exponentially with age, eating PB and nuts today is a wise investment in your future brain health.

•Peanuts offer slightly more protein than nuts. That’s because peanuts are a legume (like lentils and dried beans) and not a nut. One serving (2 tablespoons) of PB has 8 grams of protein, while 2 tablespoons of almond butter has 6 grams (at a much

nutrition be your By Nancy Clark, M.S., R.D.

higher price!) Runners want to target at least 20 grams of protein per meal or snack. You can get that by swirling PB into oatmeal cooked in (soy) milk, enjoying a PB & honey sandwich with a yogurt, or making a PB-banana smoothie. Quick, easy, and inexpensive.

• PB contains numerous bioactive compounds (phenols) that bolster the immune system. Spanish peanuts and shell peanuts are particularly wise snack choices because the peanut skin is rich in anti-oxidants and fiber. Fiber feeds gut-bacteria (your microbiome); these bacteria strongly enhance your immune system, overall health and mood.

•All peanuts are non-GMO and have low risk of pesticide residue, in part because peanuts grow under the ground.

• Is all natural peanut butter far better than Skippy of Jif? All types of PB need to meet a “standard of identity” as defined by the USDA. Conventional brands might have 2% added saturated fat (palm oil, hydrogenated oils) to control the oil from separating. This small amount does not over-ride the positive health benefits of PB. • What about all the sugar added to Skippy and Jiff PB? “All that sugar” is only 2 or 3 grams. That’s nothing compared to the 10 to 15 grams of sugar in the jelly or honey you might enjoy with the PB, or the 6 g sugar in the sandwich bread. Regardless, sugar fuels your muscles. Please fret less about added sugar and focus more on PB’s zinc, folate, vitamin E, niacin, and selenium. It is nutrient-rich.

• What about all the sodium in PB? The 150 milligrams of sodium in a serving of PB is less than the sodium you get in a slice of bread or 12-ounces of Gatorade. Regardless, as an athlete, you want to replace the sodium you lose in sweat.

• But what if I can’t eat just one spoonful…? If you stay away from PB because you can’t eat just a reasonable serving, think again. Overindulging in PB means you like it; you should eat it more often! By enjoying PB at every meal, in a few days, you will stop craving it. No more binges! Avoiding peanut butter just sets you up for “last chance eating.” You know, I just blew my diet by eating PB so I’d better keep eating it. Last chance before I go back on my diet. Denial and deprivation of PB lead to overeating. Do not deny yourself of this yummy sports food.

You will deprive your body of valuable health benefits!

Running Through the Bluegrass Running on the Track Has Its Advantages Sometimes your racing routine just needs a dash of something new. After I was snubbed by a very-short 5k earlier this season, I ran my first track 5000 … at the age of 32.

As a high schooler, I ran two seasons of track during which I mediocrely ran the 100m and 200m sprints. If forced, I occasionally subbed on the 4x400 relay.

I also avoid the track for speed work because it’s just so … many …. laps. But after awhile, after you’ve accepted 12 mile treadmill runs as normal and ran 6 miles of speed work on the track out of necessity (and by that I mean lights and water in January), 12.5 laps starts to seem like not so many.

Especially if I don’t have to count them.

When I reached out to a local college track coach — who is younger than me by the way, and did recently wallop me by 3 minutes in a 10k — she was a little, um, dismissive. “In my experience, running on the track is a lot different than racing on the roads.” Well, sure. But that’s not to say racing on the track is different in a bad way!

Here’s five things I learned from my

By Tracy Green

long-distance track debut nearly a decade after I graduated college: 1. You’re set up for an automatic age group win! Okay, they don’t give those out at open college meets, but who cares?

Actually, they don’t give out anything. No plastic medals, no mugs, no crappy tshirts eight sizes too big. And you know what? It only cost me $25. That’s a fair deal.

2. Logistics heaven. The start and finish are in the same place. I left my bag on the bleachers and my warmups and training shoes in the infield. You can’t get lost — just keep turning left. There are no potholes, curbs, train tracks, road-killed ani-

mals (saw someone’s recently deceased pet at mile 7 of my last marathon, gross).

Someone else is counting the laps for you, there’s a giant clock with your overall time, and someone will tell you your split every 200 meters. (Tip: you might want to know what those should be in advance, because the math gets hard halfway through.)

3. Fixed crowd support. Your fan base doesn’t have to chase you from point to point, heck, they can be eating a hot dog while you’re racing! They will get to see you 13 times during a 5k! There will also be coaches and teammates all along the infield cheering, cajoling, and possibly berating. You’ll get some great motivation, even if it’s not intended for you, and you might have a few moments of distraction thinking, “Wow, I’m glad that’s not my coach,” or “If you think it’s so easy to catch the lead pack, why don’t you come out here and do it yourself?”

4. No giant bibs. Just hip numbers that you stick on yourself, probably chest and hip. No longer do you need a chip-embedded bib the size of your entire torso.

5. No dudes wearing headphones and

Women’s Running Success Comes to Hasay on the Roads Jordan Hasay has been a phenomenal runner since she first laced up her shoes.

But Jordan grew up with her brother in a very active family. In fact her parents actually met at Gold's Gym in Los Angeles where her father, Joe was a body builder. Her Mom was a swimmer and the kids grew up extremely active. She grew up with a fitness mentality where she ate healthy and never had candy. Her lifestyle was geared to exercise and moving. Her parents mainly encouraged her, as she began pursuing running in elementary school, and always gave the reins to her coaches to bring her along slowly.

Jordan was a tomboy who took up swimming and surfing at the beach as she grew up in Arroyo Grande, CA, attending Mission College Preparatory Catholic High School. She was chosen as the High School Athlete of the Year in 2008 by Track and Field News and was on the cover in March of 2009. She is a four time Junior USA 1500 meter champion and she ran the 1500 meter finals at the Olympic Trials as a high school junior in 2008 and won the Footlocker National Championship twice. After a stellar high

school career, she elected to attend the University of Oregon where she was a stand out. She has left many marks in the Ducks record books. Upon graduating she joined the Nike Oregon Project to be coached by Alberto Salazar. She trains in Portland with other athletes in the project.

After college, Jordan took to the track running a personal best 31:46.42 in the 10,000, a 15:37.29 in the 5000 and a 4:10.28 in the 1500. She prefers the track over cross country but moved to the roads in 2016 taking the Twin Cities 10 mile USATF national title, then collected national titles in the half marathon in Houston in January and the 15K in

Jacksonville in March. Continuing onward she broke the female American debut marathon record by nearly three minutes placing third at the 2017 Boston Marathon.

Jordan is sprite at 5 feet 4 inches tall but she has an incredible upper body and can dead lift twice her weight. She is a strong lady mentally and physically and works out in the gym most days. For fun she likes to do stand up paddle boarding with her brother and she likes to cook and read inspirational books.

After the Boston Marathon she had to deal with cramping quads and was really sore. Going to the start at 6 a.m., she found herself at peace and excited for the start. She was totally ready to go and her goal was to run a 2:25 and with the early surges in the race she found she was running 5:15 to 5:40's and it was difficult to settle into a steady pace. But she was determined to be there in the mix. She had a friend decorate her special fluid bottles and was able to get her fluids with no problem. Each bottle served as an inspiration. She had a lot left with seven miles to go, but it being her first marathon, she

decided not to try and cover Edna Kiplagaat's surge, but she was closing for second at the end and had a lot left.

Jordan feels her future is in the marathon and she is forgoing track to concentrate on the roads. Her next race will be the national championship Peachtree Road Race 10K, then she is looking to a fall marathon. It will be interesting to see if she chooses a fast course like Berlin or Chicago or takes on the streets of NYC. Whatever her choice may be, she is definitely going to be a force on the roads and she is only 25 years old. That blonde braid will be followed by many in the years to come.

CELEBRATE 20 YEARS RUNNING

2013 Big headline shows have graced Savannah’s stage, but no one stands out more than Jackal who took a chainsaw to a chair in true rock ‘n’ roll style!

1998 The inaugural Rock ‘n’ Roll Marathon took place in San Diego, forever changing the sport of running.

2001 We finished on the oceanfront at the first ever destination half marathon, Rock ‘n’ Roll Virginia Beach.

2015 The Military Challenge in Virginia Beach is introduced and receives the largest turnout across the series with 4,500 participants.

2010 Since its inauguration, Rock ‘n’ Roll Savannah is the only event in the series where river boat ferry is the preferred mode of transporation to the Health & Fitness Expo.

“We Run The South”

RUNNING PSYCHOLOGY CONTINUED FROM PAGE 2 lasting memento of a proud moment in your long running career. I think I can say runners like awards and the awards do indeed represent their competence as runners. Even very small awards can have a huge meaning. Maybe it was the first medal or trophy you ever won or medal from your first marathon. Special awards can have special meaning and that can enhance motivation in the future.

Missing out on an award can also increase motivation to train harder and be more focused in preparation. However, consider if awards were eliminated and never given again in any race. Would you still keep running and keep racing? The great majority of us would because of our pure intrinsic motivation to run. So keep loving that four mile loop, that special trail, that anticipation of your next marathon or even the anticipation of your run tomorrow.

You love to run and a medal might just be good for you from time to time.
