he postman delivered that four-letter word in glaring red — AARP. The American Association of Retired People somehow knew I was turning 50 this month. I had been planning for the big 5-0 for more than a decade. Back then, a friend in the health club business, Barry Van Patten, said he was working on being more fit at 50 than he was at 40. I decided then I would be fitter at 40 than 30, and fitter at 50 than 40. Barry got me started on strength training to combat age-related muscle loss. In the 14 months after my 40th birthday, I ran five marathons and two ultra marathons; was first in the 40-44 age group in the five-race ARR Summer Series; and participated in the Hood-to-Coast Relay. I set two back-to-back personal records four weeks apart breaking 3:28 and earning a 15th overall at the Mayors Midnight Sun Marathon. To top that at 50 would be a challenge. All that took its toll. I took up yoga, sculling and dragon boat racing. After breaking three ribs at the 2002 Tai Pei International Dragon Boat races, I couldn’t run or ride at all. So, I hit the iron and made sweeping changes in my nutrition and physique. At 44, I developed abs and found shoulders. I anonymously put my torso on the cover of SWEAT’s January 2003 issue. When the recent AARP invitation arrived, I decided it was time for a cover again to show what 50 looks like. It would be a celebration of a journey and hard work. This time, I was celebrating 50 years and the benefits of a fit, healthy and active lifestyle. I wanted to inspire others to not settle for what we are told we should be at 30 or 40 or any other age. This isn’t about looks. I am physically stronger now than I was at 30. As a young girl, rope climbs in gym made my stomach turn. Now, I can crank out a dozen chin-ups and pump 70 push-ups. By my birthday at the end of this month, I plan to achieve 15 chin-ups and a set of 100 push-ups. Make no mistake, our bodies do age and reaching fitness benchmarks gets tougher. You make choices. After years of fighting headwinds on the bike, I would rather let trainer Eric Bell push me to failure pumping iron. One of the toughest parts of the journey was getting ready for the photo shoot. Eating and training for aesthetics is different than for endurance. The constant tweaking of my nutrition and no sugar had grim moments. Tropical Twist Trident became my friend. I saw the Ab-Roller as a torture device. At times, in a fetal pose, I begged to be done with an exercise. A session of spray-on tanning was a lesson in embarrassing exposure. The photo shoot was an exhausting seven hours of flexing and smiling. Near the end, I gained some perspective on age as I posed in front of a door that was six centuries old. With the exception of a spray-on-tan, I kept to a natural approach. I prepared healthy, whole foods. There were no injections, lasers or cosmetic surgery. The secret to remaining youthful is what keeps us healthy all our lives – exercise and good nutrition. Six weeks shy of her 50th birthday, Martina Navratilova won the mixed doubles title at the US Open. Currently, the 52-year-old legend promotes staying fit as you age for AARP. She says that she doesn’t deny her age, she defies it. Defy the calendar or what you think you should look like or do at your age. The reward is worth the work.

This month Heather shot SWEAT Publisher Sue Berliner for our cover and table of contents. Heather loved the beautiful setting and Spanish architectural influence of the new Intercontinental Montelucia Resort and Spa. She was excited to document Sue’s celebration of a fit life and happy to be among those promoting fitness. She got her professional start photographing the Indiana University Little 500 bicycle race (which was the subject of the 70’s film Breaking Away), and has been widening her repertoire of subjects ever since. Her photographs have appeared in numerous national publications as well as many local magazines. Although much of her work now focuses on portraiture, her favorite subject matter involves creative movement found in dance and theatre, as well as sport. An avid dancer herself, Heather teaches swing dance in the Valley which, in conjunction with frequent visits to the gym, keeps up her strength and endurance so that she can haul around all of that photography gear. Find her at heatherhillphoto.com.

Those attending got to meet Hungarian pro-triathlete Jozef Major, winner of Ironman Arizona 2008, who just signed on with Tribe for the 2009 racing season. Major will be training in Arizona during this year. “We are proud to partner with such a fine professional athlete,” says Tribe Multisport owner Kevin Weitzel. “We look forward to celebrating many podium finishes with Jozef this season.” Tribe Multisport, founded by Olympic cyclist Kevin Weitzel five years ago, continues to be a leader in the tri community, offering products, services, training, events, community outreach and race support.

Stevia Sweet And Healthy
According to the USDA, over the past 33 years, the amount of sugar and other caloriecontributing sweeteners being consumed by each American annually increased 19 percent from 119 pounds to 142 pounds. A 2,000-calories-a-day menu should only include 10 teaspoons of sugar but most of us are gobbling down at least twice that. Rachel Albert-Matesz, a wholesome foods chef, says the natural, no-calorie sweetener stevia is a great sugar substitute but most people aren’t familiar with it or don’t know how to use it. SWEAT introduced readers to stevia many years ago when the FDA was succumbing to political pressures and trying to suppress its use. Recently, under tremendous consumer pressure, it approved the use of the herb for sweetening. With blood sugar stabilizing properties, it is ideal for diabetes as well as those trying to cut calories. Chef Rachael says those who say they don’t like the taste are probably using too much of it. She’s put more than a decade of experience using the sweetener in her new book, The Ice Dream Cookbook: Dairy-Free Ice Cream Alternatives with Gluten-Free Cookies, Compotes & Sauces. One strategy is to use stevia in combination with one-third to one-half the usual amounts of sugar, honey, agavé nectar or maple syrup. Her book contains 80 recipes with more than 200 variations of reduced-sugar frozen desserts, cookies, fruit compotes and sauces. In metro Phoenix, find the book at Desert Sage Herbs, Healing Pages Books, Changing Hands Books, Chakra 4 and Kitchen Classics. Order online at www.PlanetaryPress. net.

TRAINING ON EMPTY Low-carb diets are great if your idea of exercise is strolling to work. Athletes need to fuel up, and that means carbs. FIX: Experts say 2.5 grams of carbs per pound of bodyweight every day.
Rocky Anniversary 2 AZ on the Rocks is having a Jan. 16 Quinquennial (that’s fifth) Anniversary celebration and firsttime ever membership drive. From 5 to 10 p.m. at 16447 N. 91st St., the climbing biz will offer special pricing using the factor of “five” to create deals on day passes and memberships. Kevin J. Berk, co-owner and self-proclaimed El Presidente, points out that the climbing facility is set up to accommodate people of all ages, even those who have never climbed before. He adds, they have a no reservations policy. AZ on the Rocks is fully climate controlled and includes 14,000 square feet of climbing terrain, 50 top ropes, auto-belay devices, lead climbing, a large bouldering area, fitness equipment, personal training through Enerjoy Fitness and a yoga program through Zenergy Yoga. AZ on the Rocks offers gear, instructions and kids’ camps. Climb into more facts at www.AZontheRocks.com or call 480-502-9777. Find the rock place east of the 101 Freeway and one block south of Bell Road, in North Scottsdale.
Scottsdale Kicks Off Fit City Jan. 24
Just in time to bring the entire family into a healthier new year, The Jan. 24 Fit City Scottsdale Kickoff is a celebration of wellness and health 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. in downtown Scottsdale. You’ll find fun programs, events and activities for all ages. Take part in a Youth Decathlon, register a team for the Great Wellness Chase and sample activities from spinning and rowing to Zumba or Belly Dancing. There will be demonstrations and local fitness and wellness business will have booths. There is a fitness challenge and coaches will be there to answer questions. Get the facts at www.fitcityscottsdale.org.
WORKING OUT JUST TO WORK OUT Your training should support the physical demands of your sport and lifestyle. FIX: Make sure your workouts train the muscle groups you need.
3
LIVING AT THE GYM When its wet or a billion degrees out, gyms are vital. But, exercising indoors is boring and experts suggest not as effective. FIX: Exercise outdoors at least half the time. Avoid treadmills and modify your routine.
4
STRETCHING COLD A few old runners still haven’t got this message. Recent studies add to the evidence that static stretching doesn’t reduce injuries or improve performance. In fact, it can strain ligaments and tendons, especially without a warm up. FIX: Stop stretching cold and move around or try cycling instead, to warm up.
Surf Greener
Here’s something we know you’ve never thought about. Each year, using your personal computer contributes the same amount of greenhouse gas emissions as burning 32 gallons of gasoline. One way to save the planet is to use Blackle to surf the Internet. Powered by Google, it provides the same search results as google.com but on a blacked-out background. Google reports savings of more than 944,500 kilowatt hours of energy since the engine’s launch in 2007. If the black background is too bizarre, go to thegreenspider. com, also powered by Google. It saves a bit less energy than Blackle but users can choose a color background.

GOING LONG AND SLOW TO BURN CALORIES Long, slow cardio workouts are great for taking off the fat, but they can have diminishing effects. FIX: Replace one or two weekly endurance workouts with highintensity intervals.
MOVING IN ONE PLANE There are three planes of movement: forward-backward, side-to-side and rotational. Most folks exercise exclusively in the forward-backward, which leaves other areas underdeveloped FIX: Work rotational and side-toside exercises into your routine.

IGNORING WEIGHTS Proper strength training improves efficiency and performance in endurance sports. Ignore weights and you’ll never hit your true PB. FIX: Add at least two resistance training sessions each week. TAKING IT TOO EASY A leisurely pace is better than couching it, but you’ll get fitter and perform better only by working a little harder each training session. FIX: Ramp it up slowly.
OBSESSING OVER ABS You need a strong core but most athletes isolate abs and ignore everything else on the essential “pillar.” FIX: Strengthen your lower back with reverse sit-ups and work your “pillar” simultaneously with overhead squats.
WHINING TOO BUSY This is the number one excuse for not exercising. FIX: The best way to get motivated is with a buddy or through competition. Find a workout partner, use a site that keeps track of your fitness workouts or sign up for a race.

SKIPPING RECOVERY Planned downtime in your schedule is a part of training. This recovery time is important in avoiding overtraining, injuries and underperforming. FIX: Pay attention to sleep, energy levels and motivation.

KEEPING NO SCORES Keeping track of personal bests motivates you to work harder and gives you goals. FIX: Keep a training log online or on paper. Courtesy of Outside magazine.
Cycling to Save His Life George Henninger is a successful engineer, which means he spends a lot of butt-spreading time at the computer. Five years ago, he got a reality check. Overweight and out of shape, he was still shocked at his Type 2 Diabetes diagnosis. Like any good any engineer, he made a plan. “Many of my friends are into cycling so they talked me into trying it,” he said. With biking and a healthy-heart diet, he is now off all medications and has lost more than 50 pounds. Henninger boasts an array of bikes that he uses for training and participating in events like the Phoenix Tour de Cure, for which he is a top fund-raiser and volunteer.

Osa]p Odknpo Fighting Father Time
You work out, eat well and get lots of sleep. And while you are doing your best to build a good body, father time is chipping away at your cells. While there is no magic pill, Juvenon is a supplement based on a good deal of real scientific research. We first saw the product appear on the Dr. Weil web site with very positive reviews including the fact he himself takes it. Mitochondria, the powerhouses of the cell, begin to decay by the time people hit their early 30s. The effect is a body operating at half to a fourth of its youthful energy. Dr. Bruce Ames, a U.S. National Medal of Science award-winning researcher specializing in cellular science at the University of California, Berkeley, and his team discovered that by combining Acetyl L-Carnitine and Alpha Lipoic Acid the cell’s mitochondria are recharged. Those are what you find in Juvenon plus biotin, calcium and phosphorus. A study published in the Journal of Clinical Hypertension, found Juvenon lowered blood pressure in hypertensive men. SWEAT gave it a few weeks trial and found it easy to take, two pills a day, with a noticeable increase in mental clarity and overall energy. Info: www. juvenon.com.
Strength training must be a part of a triathlete’s and cyclists regime to reach the ever elusive goal of “faster and better.” In his book Strength Training for Triathletes, fitness phenomena Dr. Patrick Hagerman explains how small changes in muscle strength add up to big race results. For triathletes, the benefits of strength training are many — from better stability in the water and on the bike to an increased metabolism. The doc says stronger muscles work longer, which makes strength training vital to endurance athletes. The book is organized by discipline (swim, bike, run) and by muscle group. Each exercise is illustrated, making the routines easy to follow. Cost is $21.95. Bikers might want to pick up Weight Training for Cyclists: A Total Body Program for Power and Endurance by Ken Doyle and Eric Schmitz. Cyclists need more than just powerful quads and chiseled calves. This book is $18.95. Both books from Velopress are available at book retailers, bike and triathlon shops and online at www.velopress.com.

Bag Your Stuff With Style
Are you toting around your sports clothes and gear in a bag beat up beyond all sensibilities? Give your new fitness goals a boost with a new, stylish but functional duffle. SWEAT tried out Dakine’s EQ bag. This is not a sissy sack nor is it a bland, standard-issue military duf. It is available in small, medium or large, depending on how much stuff you simply have to tote around. The bag pictured here is a medium. We found that the U-shaped opening made it easy to get to our stuff. Zippered end pockets were ideal for your shoes, dirty clothes or other things you don’t want touching your better stuff. Even loaded down, the padded shoulder strap makes it comfortable to haul around. Choose from a rainbow of colors. Prices from $35 - $45. Find your nearest Dakine retailer and more at www.dakine.com

Hydration is vital but you can only drink so many gallons of water at a time or choke down yet another, overly sweet sports drink. Try adding coconut water to your beverage menu. When chilled, it is light, refreshing and remarkably nutritious. Organic young coconut water by Nature Factor comes in a convenient recyclable can so you can pack it without worry about breaking or plastic perils. Coconut water provides potassium (about 600 milligrams per cup, more than a banana), along with calcium, magnesium, sodium and sugar with 65 calories in 10 ounces. According to the USDA, it has some fiber and a little protein and vitamin C. Since it can replenish electrolytes (such as the sodium and potassium), it actually is Mama Nature’s sports beverage. We are talking about coconut water, the thin liquid found naturally inside young green coconuts. Don’t confuse it with coconut milk, which is made from the white flesh of older coconuts. You aren’t making piña coladas. Find the beverage at local Sprouts and Sunflower stores for about $1.50 a 10.5-ounce can.

Rae Olk Loses to Triumph As SWEAT’s
Biggest Winner By Chandra Graham
Rae Olk is SWEAT’s 2008 Biggest Winner. Over a period of six months, the 39-year-old emergency dispatcher from Phoenix lost 14.1 pounds of body weight and 24.8 percent of her body fat while gaining 11.5 pounds of muscle.

In addition to Olk, Carole Bean and Ernie Hart Jr. finished the contest with some impressive results. Preston said that because Bean’s and Olk’s results were almost identical, it was difficult to determine a winner. He explained, “Rae won by a tiny, tiny, tiny bit. What put her over the top, even though it was almost a virtual tie with Carole, was that she gave a much better effort in following the nutrition plan. Rae gained 11 pounds of muscle over the six months because she adhered to the nutrition. She only missed one weekly appointment. She was the clear winner when you factor in all of that.” Olk said her biggest obstacle was going into a gym because she didn’t know how to use the equipment and was afraid she’d look foolish. In spite of many personal challenges including business travel and a flooded house, she remained committed to all the modifications recommended by the four trainers and life coach. Preston pointed out that Olk changed more than her dress size, “Rae was the most quiet of them all at the beginning, very shy. She had a real transformation from beginning to end in how she carried herself – her posture and attitude.” Bean’s entry profile, according to Preston, was that of an ideal contestant. She had been active in the past and played collegiate volleyball. She was still competing in triathlons and her goal to complete an Ironman triathlon showed faith in herself. “What we were looking for was people who are overweight….but had a history of exercise or activity in their past and had gotten away from it,” Preston said. “Carole Bean fit that to a tee.” A self-described “fatty” when the challenge began, Bean said she avoided the scales both before and during the contest. But, she found that was not a strategy for success. She explained, “The weigh-ins became a game with myself. Since we were only going to weigh in once a month, I could fudge a little and then work the extra weight off. When it was suggested that we weigh in weekly, I could no longer fool myself or the scale.” Another challenge she overcame was a three-hour, round-trip commute to the Scottsdale Personal Trainers facility. She said her payoff was, “I would finally look in the mirror after four months of training.” Ernie Hart entered the contest after several hospitalizations and a pacemaker. “Ernie [Hart] was an NFL offensive lineman but had serious health problems. This was sort of a lifesaving program for him,” Preston said. During the challenge, Hart worked out four times each week with the trainers plus an additional three cardio sessions on his own. To make the nutritional restrictions more palatable, contestants were given

rom a group of eager applicants, SWEAT’s Biggest Winner team of experts chose four, out-of-shape individuals and challenged them to achieve their personal fitness and weight loss goals. Scottsdale Personal Trainers provided exercise training, weekly meetings with a lifestyle coach , Jane Johnson, and STAX, a comprehensive, whole-foods nutrition system. The four trainers were John Preston, Mark Norton, Frederick Golding and Audry Gygi. After hundreds of work-outs, weighins and a kitchen raid, three contestants remained with Olk grabbing the top honors that featured a makeover at Scottsdale’s Aura Salon and Day Spa; dinner at Olive and Ivy; and a new outfit from CAbi. The 5-foot, 3-inch winner said she was surprised to be selected for the contest because she’d recently lost 100 pounds. Olk suspected she was having trouble with a lingering 30 pounds because of poor nutrition. John Preston of Scottsdale Personal Trainers said, “In May, we cleaned out the contestants’ kitchens and pantries. Rae had the absolutely worst kitchen.”

But Hart says he had always seemed to consume too much of the “unhealthy” fare and his body had trouble processing the fatty, greasy “cheat” foods. Midway through the challenge, he modified what he ate on the cheat days so he enjoyed them more. Preston asserted that the Biggest Winner was also a learning experience for him as a trainer. At one point, all of the contestants simultaneously hit a weight-loss plateau. Preston responded with a mini-challenge that required contestants to work out on their own for two weeks. That was when the fourth contestant, who didn’t maintain her workouts, dropped out. Preston concluded, “Looking back, the whole purpose was that we wanted to show and prove that proper diet and exercise can lead to your goals, whether they are weight loss, fitness or health goals. It was a fun, comprehensive way to prove to everyone that it does work. The reason Rae was successful was because she really, really tried to do everything we asked her to do. She embraced all aspects of the program.” S

Super Charge Your Fitness Plan With These Top Ten Cool Trends By Joan Westlake
Whether you’re looking for something to rev up your routine or kick you into taking those first steps toward fitness, 2009 has trends ‘ya gotta consider. From a wellness coach to tough fight dancing to mind-body combos, there’s something that might rocket you to levels you never thought possible.
1
Personal Trainers
New? – You’re thinking not! Personal trainers have been around since some Neanderthal pumped rocks in a cave. This year’s trend is that more people than ever are using personal trainers. Few have time to waste on workouts without optimal results. So, clients are demanding solid, science-based certifications for trainers. The days are numbered for PTs who memorize some exercise sequences, read a study guide and take an online test to get “certified.”
Fight Dance

This ain’t being prissy with the stars. Capoeira, pronounced Cap’-oh-air-uh, is a high-energy, Afro-Brazilian martial arts form that shakes together self-defense, music, song and dance. The benefits are increased upper and lower body strength, stamina and muscle tone. Plus, you’ll look cool on the dance floor and handle threatening action in parking lots after club hours. Look for lessons where World Dance is emphasized, such as at Paradise Valley Community College. Spring classes start mid-January. Call 602-787-7272 to get with the beat.

2 Wellness Coaches
With an avalanche of health information, sports programs and exercise Web sites, finding what you need to reach your fitness goals can feel like chopping through a jungle with a blunt machete. Folks are turning back to the old-fashioned coach to point them toward the right goal, the right resources and guide them in fitting into their daily lives what it takes to hit a goal. David Allison, a runner for 30-plus years, has been coaching for eight. A running coach for Gateway Community College, Mountain Pointe High School and head of Marathon Coaching Consults, Allison says that often his job is like being a doctor who works on the patient’s overall health and brings in specialists when needed. “People come to me because there’s so much information out there but they don’t know what is accurate or how to use it,” says Allison. “My programs are running based but people of all ages with different goals come to me. They want to loose weight. Or run in a competition. Or increase their performance without injuries. At the first, free consultation, I assess their situation and how best to work in training and nutrition to meet their goals.”
Just the Basics

Folks are catching on that fancy décor, big screen televisions, sports bars and equipment that looks like the space station may be more than they want or need. They don’t need to look like a ripped, body builder or race like a triathlete. Dropping some fat and being able to play with their kids is enough of a goal. For decades, gyms like Warren Anderson’s Rehab Plus have flourished with their no-frills, solid workout programs for the public and professional athletes. There’s new wave of back-to basics gyms that look like fight-club warehouses where folks at all fitness levels gather for hardcore group sessions. Go online and there’s a cult-like attitude about CrossFit. A year ago there were a couple of hundred gyms. Now there are a thousand with locations in Arizona from Flagstaff to Casa Grande to Goodyear and Tucson. The workout is comprised of simple combinations of exercises such as jump rope, squats, sit-ups, push-ups, running, rope climbing, lifting weights and sometimes even lifting other classmates. Every workout is geared to beating your own previous best time. There are Marinebase and law enforcement CrossFit gyms, but even though Muscle & Fitness calls CrossFit the “toughest workout ever, the program creators claim it can be geared for even the least fit. Visit crossfit.com to get started.
5 Get Out of Here
Blowing off the gym to get in shape is gaining national momentum. With Arizona’s legendary weather, staying inside is just insane. Programs like Adventure Boot Camps offer four-week outdoor sessions focusing on group fitness instruction, nutritional counseling and motivational training with energizing activities. The camaraderie of suffering together is a strong social motivator in these boot camp situations. Many of the programs have been women-only but coed versions are emerging. Find Zonie camps at www.AdventureBootCampAZ.

Mind-Body Melds 7 Event and Sports-Specific Programming
Although some rail against the Americanization of yoga, melding it with traditional exercises and fitness programs is continuing to gain momentum. Beth Shaw is the queen of yoga morphing and marketing. Her YogaFit workouts take the Eastern movements and throw in activities such as strength training, core muscle building and butt firming. In addition to DVDs and sessions online, her yogafit.com web site offers a list of Arizona instructors. You’ll still need to go online to be part of another East-West trend call Cy-Yo. The cycling and yoga program is one-hour workout combining 10 minutes of yoga, 40 minutes of speed cycling on a stationary bike, then 10 more minutes of yoga to cool down and refocus the mind. Cy-Yo workouts are offered in some Gold’s Gyms.
You can’t pick up a fitness magazine without finding a fundraising 10k or marathon. Millions of Americans participate each year in charity runs and walks, often training for a year to get to the finish line. Some are motivated by health problems that they or friends and family experience. Others are using the helping-hand motivation to get in shape. This trend to establish a goal that gets you in shape is also being directed toward sports. Clubs are offering sports-specific training for surfboarding, golf and football; all the while helping clients build the strength, endurance, and stamina needed for real-life activities and to reach general physical goals.
9 Focused Fast Workouts
Got a half-hour, get hard abs or better balance. Gyms are offering group classes lasting less than half-anhour. It’s just enough time to focus on one aspect of fitness or to train a specific part of the body. Work on that core. Increase balance and stability. Pump up your upper body and get out the door. Clubs are offering running series of these quick, focused classes so clients can get their cardio in while picking sessions that meet specific needs.
8
Pet Buddies Training with a partner is one of the best ways to stay
on track and reach goals. One up-and-coming trend is for Fido and owner to get fit together. Seriously, the science says it works. In a year-long study, experts at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago demonstrated that both people and pets were more successful in staying with a weight loss program when they did it together. Humans and their pets were placed on a balanced, low-calorie diet and given a 30-minute moderate activity plan to do together, three times a week. When compared to dogs only and people only, the combined people-pet group lost the most weight -- the people, an average of about 11 pounds, the dogs, about 12 pounds. Who’s your buddy now?

Osa]p Odknpo Gives new meaning to a mud bath
gradual, uphill mile run led to a giant pit filled with 4,000-gallons of slimy mud. A variety of techniques was used to get through the pit. The craziest spectacle was probably five bustier- and Speedo-clad Vikings as they leapfrogged their way through the slime. The Mad Mud Run raised over $2,500 for the Foundation for Burns and Trauma.
I]ngaplh]_a Darren Ong
Bep B]na Mad Mud Run A 4-mile run, some calisthenics and a soothing mud bath served as a spa day for 1,040 racers, many in bizarre and creative costumes. At the November Mad Mud Run, participants raced as individuals or on teams of two- or five-persons in male, female or coed divisions. The Mudpuppy Splash highlighted the crazy skills and dexterity of 4- to 12 year olds. The second Mad Mud Run of the 2008 season started innocently enough with giggles from squirt gun-wielding children. It continued the first mile on an easy trail through MacDonald’s Ranch in North Scottsdale. Then the fun began. The first of four boot-camp style obstacles was the hay bale hurdles with athletes going up-and-over five, double stacks of bales before continuing a mile to the low crawl. There, they dropped to their bellies and slithered through the sandy wash. Vickie Nelson, Team It’s Not Pretty, But We Gotta Do It, said, “Running through the washes and sand made it quite challenging.” The next task was a 60-foot wall climb. Three-fourths of the way through the course, anticipation of the final madness mounted as teams overcame a series of telephone pole balance beams. The final,

Out Run the FBI 5k Nearly 300 men, women and children chased five FBI agent “rabbits” during a 3.10-mile fun run/walk at Steele Indian School Park in Phoenix. The G-men were passed by 50 of the challengers on one of Arizona’s famous, sunny, 80F-degree November fall days. The race, whose slogan is “We run so they can’t hide,” started with the sounding of an FBI vehicle siren. Cory Davidson of Buckeye was the first male across the line and Sandra Fontaine of Peoria the first female. The Phoenix FBI Citizens’ Academy Alumni Association hosted the inaugural event with Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon addressing the participants and onlookers before the run. After the race, runners enjoyed music, food, drinks, FBI demonstrations, face-painting, raffle prizes and awards. Prizes totaling $1,800 were donated by the community for a raffle. Gold, silver, and bronze medals were presented for winners in 12 age groups, and trophies were presented to the winners of the Largest Team, Fastest Team, Best Overall Male, and Best Overall Female. The fundraiser benefits community outreach programs such as the FBI’s Sexual Predator Initiative, which is designed to provide a greater awareness of the dangers Internet predators pose. “This event has brought the dangers of the Internet to light and has given the Arizona community a chance to get involved in the process to protect themselves and take a stand against these crimes,” said John E. Lewis, Special Agent in Charge, FBI Phoenix Division. “We were absolutely overwhelmed with the enthusiastic response from the community.”

Osa]p Odknpo for the entire day. After the race, Zeiger said it was her final Ironman. Despite her two Ironman titles, she’s always struggled with being able to maintain enough energy during a full distance Ironman competition. After winning the Foster Grant Ironman World Championship 70.3 two weeks earlier, Zeiger was uncertain about racing Clearwater or Kona next year, saying that both together were unrealistic. She is now focusing on the Half Ironman 70.3 racing and her job as a geneticist. Once Zeiger dropped back during the marathon, Cave held off a group of women that included some of the sport’s most consistent marathon runners. Edith Niederfriniger, an Ironman champion who finished second in South Africa this year before finishing third in Austria in under nine hours, appeared to be gaining time on Cave, but her charge to the front stalled and she finished third. It was Bij Van de Vaat, who was runner up finish in Florida last year and did the same in Lanzarote earlier this year, who was finally able to catch and pass Cave. “I surprised myself,” Van de Vaat said after she had won. “When I did Hawaii six weeks ago, I didn’t have a very good day. I was 29th. I had a really bad race. But, I think that was a bad day and this [one] was a really good [day].” Van de Vaat has enjoyed some success over hilly courses, she said that today’s course suited her because the terrain is very similar to that in her home in Holland – flat and windy. The 34-year old chemical engineer has been a triathlete since 1995. In 2007, she became a full time, pro triathlete. The newly crowned Ironman champion won’t be resting. She is planning to race at Ironman 70.3 South Africa in January, Ironman Malaysia in February and Ironman Lanzarote in May.

When Nov. 23 came to end at Tempe Town Lake, 2,076 triathletes crossed the finish line. Records were broken as Andreas Raelert won his Ironman debut and Heleen Bij Van de Vaat claimed her first Ironman title. The men’s race began with a record-breaking swim led by Kieran Doe (46:02) and Mark Van Akkeren (46:10). Raelert came off the bike well behind a pair of some of the sports best cyclists -- Chris Lieto and Doe -- and steadily ran his way to the front of the pack. Once he took over the lead with just six miles to go, Raelert never looked back as he cruised to an impressive a 2:46 marathon and record-setting performance. His 8:14:16 was six minutes faster than the previous course record set by Michael Lovato in 2006. Having competed at both the 2000 and 2004 Olympic Games, Raelert, 32, spent the last four years trying to make a third trip to the games. Raelert, from Germany, started competing in triathlon in 1994 and became a full time professional in 2000. “This year I missed the qualification for Beijing,” said Raelert “That was my goal for the last four years. Some people told me that I needed to pick another goal and look forward to longer distances.” He boosted his training and prepared for Ironman 70.3 Monaco. He trains 20 to 45 hours a week. He swims up to 40k, bikes 500k and runs 150k. He won in Monaco in September and he finished third at the Foster Grant Ironman World Championships (70.3) in Clear Water, Florida in early November. “My plan was to come here to learn,” said Raelert, “Never expected to win. I am really happy and excited.” Ironman standout Joanna Zeiger led the swim splashing out of the water with the lead men. She was ahead on the bike but began having stomach problems six miles into the run. Two miles later, she was passed by Leanda Cave, who had been the second place female
