That idiot." "Harmony and I's first date was watching Unbreakable."

Dylan has an encyclopedic knowledge of the history of Ultrarunning in the earthly 2000's and brought a “College Gameday” vibe to the conversation that plays like 3 long time friends unpacking the movie on a weekly long run. In this episode, the hosts continue their discussion about the film 'Unbreakable' and the impact it had on the trail running community. They focus on the experiences and stories of the four main athletes featured in the film: Anton Krupicka, Geoff Roes, Hal Koerner, and Kilian Jornet. They discuss how these athletes influenced the sport and share their own personal interactions with them.

They focus on the early experiences and inspirations of the participants in the sport of trail running. It covers topics such as the first time they saw the movie 'Unbreakable', their introduction to Western States, the Montreal Ultra Cup team, and the influence of Scott Jurek. The conversation also touches on the legacy of David Horton, the impact of Jen Shelton, and the unique character of Ricky Gates. Unbreakable is a trail running film that had a significant impact on the sport. It captured a moment in time and showcased the legends of the sport, including Jeff Rose, Anton Krupicka, Hal Koerner, and Kilian Jornet.

Victor Martinez, "Kwahu" para los Hopis,"Eagle Man" para los estadounidenses es español, vive en Arizona y trabaja para Aravaipa Running, organizadora entre otras de la Cocodona 250. La historia de Víctor Martínez podría ser la de cualquier otro español trabajando en Estados Unidos si no fuera por el componente inspiracional que tiene detrás, por cómo siente el trail running y por todo lo que ha vivido en todos sus años en Arizona. El dice de sí mismo que "yo no soy nada importante pero mi historia probablemente pueda inspirar a otros a amar este deporte de una manera diferente y que les haga pensar que nunca es tarde para ser quien quieres ser y cumplir tus sueños". Víctor Martínez corre en drop 0 desde hace unos 20 años cuando vio a Antón Kupricka, a quien conoció tiempo después, destrozando sus zapatillas pasando a los huaraches desde hace unos 15 años después de entender mejor la mecánica que envuelve el correr en ellas después de leer "Nacidos para correr"... Lo que nunca pensó es que conocería también a la mayor parte de los protagonistas del libro incluido Jurek y que correría con algunos de ellos como Manuel Luna o Arnulfo Quimares, que durmieron en su casa. Experiencias de vida únicas, como haber estado presente en aquella increíble y épica Hardrock 100 que Killian Jornet ganó con un solo brazo y la gran batalla de los Coury. La participación de Manu Vilaseca en la Cocodona 250 nos ha dado la oportunidad de conocer a Víctor Martínez, una oportunidad que no podíamos desaprovechar para conversar sobre él, Aravaipa, lo inspiracional del trail estadounidense y muchos temas más, dejándonos otros en el tintero que tendremos que continuar en un futuro no muy lejano.

The mountains will try to kill us and yet they have no malice.. They freeze us and yet warm our souls. .They fill our lives with joy and yet have nothing tangible to give. .The mountains deserve our respect. .They require meticulous preparation, mentally, spiritually and physically.Today we are sitting down with a master of preparation. Scott Johnston is a world renown Endurance coach. Some of the athletes he has worked with over the years include Killian Jornet, Steve House, Alex Honold and Tom Evans to name a few. But Scotts true legacy and contribution to the climbing community lies with the everyday climber who he has equipped with the knowledge necessary to improve their health and wellbeing and to live a life full of adventure. In our conversation we discuss the allure of endurance sports, the nuance of endurance coaching, the future of ultra running, the importance of life beyond sport, the fragility of life and finally we discuss an accident that left Scott stranded and alone on the vast glaciers of Denali Please rate, review the show, and share this podcast with your friends.

Los lagos del Pirineo son zonas de alto valor ecológico que tienen un papel en el ciclo del carbono que, según la comunidad científica, aún no comprendemos del todo. Para profundizar en ello, los proyectos LACOS y METAESTANY estudian el ciclo del carbono, el metabolismo y las emisiones en los estanques de Tres Estanys y Naorte, en el Pirineo de Lleida. Son proyectos del CSIC y la Fundación Killian Jornet, financiados por el Parc Natural de l’Alt Pirineu y la Fundació Catalana per a la Recerca i la Innovació. Y permitirán conocer el funcionamiento de los lagos de alta montaña para así, poder tomar decisiones precisas para su preservación y hacerlos más resilientes frente al cambio climático. El lago de Tres Estanys se ha visto afectado por la población del piscardo, un pez que se introdujo en lagos del Alto Pirineo como cebo de pesca. Estos peces alteran la red trófica de los lagos, poniendo en peligro a poblaciones autóctonas y pudiendo causar la eutrofización de las aguas, que se traduce en un crecimiento masivo de algas planctónicas, dándole al lago un color verde. Por el contrario, el estanque de Naorte ha ido recuperando sus aguas cristalinas gracias a varios proyectos de erradicación y control de esta especie durante los últimos años, como RESQUALPYR. El equipo investigador estima que el estanque de Naorte, restaurado, donde la eliminación del piscardo es ya casi total, actúa como sumidero de carbono durante los meses de verano. Ambos proyectos comparten la ciencia que hacen con estudiantes de institutos de enseñanza secundaria pirenaicos, como el INS Alt Berguedà o el de Pobla de Segur. Implicando a la población joven y la comunidad educativa, conciencian sobre la conservación y la recuperación de estas zonas para que el impacto del cambio climático sea menor.Escuchar audio

Meet our guest, Beth Pascall, winner of the Western States 100 in 2021... an embodiment of grit, tenacity, and perseverance. She unpacks her journey, addressing her battle with a recurring injury, the mental toll it's taken, and her unyielding determination to run again.We further delve into Beth's world, where she discusses letting go of sponsorship pressures and her thoughts on the differences between bike racing and running. She candidly shares her journey of preparing for the Western States and striking a balance between her medical career and her passion for running.

We also gained some practical advice from Beth on eating enough for injury prevention and performance enhancement.Our conversation doesn't stop there; we discuss current affairs surrounding the Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc (UTMB) and the Dacia sponsorship, the decision of Killian Jornet not to participate, and the impact of sponsorship in races. Her story is a beautiful reminder of the strength of the human spirit.

"Correr o morir", así es como Killian Jornet, el mejor corredor de montaña del mundo, titula su libro. Y esa frase es nuestro punto de partida en esta aventura. Viajaremos en el tiempo, junto a Arturo Xicontécatl, hasta los Juegos Olímpicos de Tokyo para desenterrar una historia impactante, la de Kokichi Tsuburaya; y conectaremos los puntos hasta llegar a otro libro, el de Haruki Murakami, "De qué hablo cuando hablo de correr". Viaja con nosotros en la Expedición Rosique.

Hello and welcome back to TBR. Today's guest is Jack Kuenzle.  The 27-year-old former Navy SEAL may be one of the most gifted runners on the planet. Who, back in September took nearly 30 minutes of Killian Jornet's record for the Bob Graham round. One of the most historic and epic fell routes in the world of mountain running.  He has been taking chunks out of dozens of FKTs in the UK and the USA after spending time in the military as a member of the U.S Navy SEALS.  In this conversation, we talk about his journey to the mountains, his training, how heat is the poor man's altitude, why van life isn't all it's cracked up to be, and why Jack writes the funniest race reports.  This was a fantastic conversation! Thanks to Jack for taking the time.  Follow him @ Photo by @steveashworthmedia --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thebigrunpodcast/message

I detta avsnitt samtalar jag med en otroligt inspirerande tjej som vunnit VM i Skyrunning, en av världens bästa skidalpinist och som driver eget bolag inom träning och kost Emelie Forsberg. Hon och hennes man som också är en fenomenalt duktig löpare och skidalpinist Killian Jornet bor i en by i Norge som heter Måndalen. Vyerna som Emelie bjuder på i hennes Instagramflöde är så inspirerande och vackra så man helt enkelt bara vill ut i naturen och röra på sig bara man ser till hennes flöde.Självklart börjar Emelie att berätta om sin uppväxt i Härnösand och löpningen i Höga Kustens terräng och varför hon fastnade för löpning och skidalpinism.Emelie har många otroliga äventyr i sin ryggsäck, det som jag fastnat för är rekordet att ta sig igenom Kungsleden (450 km på 4 dagar och 21 timmar), snabbast upp och ner på Kebnekaise ( 2 timmar), snabbaste dam upp på Mont Blanc och tillbaka till Chamonix (7 timmar 53 minuter). Det är så imponerande strapatser på dessa tider.Vi kom såklart in på vad som driver henne, hur hon tänker och hur hon tränar.Tillsammans med två andra kompisar har hon startat ett företag som heter Moonvalley, de gör ekologiska och näringsrika produkter som är bra att ha med sig på träningspassen och långa turer.Emelie är en mycket enkel och sund människa med fantastiska åsikter. Hon förordar att inte krångla till varken träning eller kost. Man ska må bra och drivas av glädje och välmående.Efter att ha fött 2 st ungar har hon nu börjat träna hårt och fokuserat för att uppnå nya rekord.Detta är verkligen ett härligt avsnitt som ger massor av energi, inspiration och kunskap.Stort Tack Emelie för att du var med i Vintersportpodden och lycka till med din träning, tävling och entreprenörskap!

Welcome back my friends to episode 22 of Starve the Ego Feed the Soul, so incredibly grateful to have you here.This week's guest is my good friend Dylan Bowman.

Our guest today is Scott Johnston, an expert in endurance sports including everything from alpine skiing to mountain running. He has worked with Killian Jornet, arguably one of the best ultra endurance athletes on the planet, and numerous top cross country skiers in the US. He's the author of Training for the Uphill Athlete and Training for the New Alpinism. Both books are manuals for athletes and coaches, filled with resources and tools to elevate endurance training. Scott Johnston is himself a lifelong endurance athlete, having performed at high levels in swimming, skiing, and climbing. As a coach, he has practiced and refined an approach to training athletes that emphasizes the skills that can be practiced and acknowledges the genetic determinants of certain abilities. In this episode, Scott explains the tripod of endurance, which are the foundational principles for going long in any sport. Listen to the entire episode to better understand these three principles and what you can do to improve your own training, including: Running with perfect form, as David Rudisha does Collecting feedback by video, mirror, or other method to assess your running Including strides in workouts Strength training for endurance Thank you Precision Hydration! Thank you to our newest sponsor, Precision Hydration. If you've ever struggled with hydration or electrolyte issues, use code STRENGTH15 to get 15% off your first order. They offer tablets, packets, and other essentials to help you train in any environment. Precision Hydration knows that there isn't a one-size-fits all approach to hydration, which is why I love that they help athletes refine their hydration strategy for whatever event they're training for. If you can't get a custom sweat test done, they have a free online test that will give you your own personalized hydration strategy. It's heating up where I am and I'm ending my runs a lot sweatier than I was just a month ago. I know I'll be paying a lot more attention to my hydration and electrolyte needs. This is especially important with longer runs in the mountains here at altitude. You can learn much more about hydration in my conversation with the founder of Precision Hydration, Andy Blow. Check out Precision Hydration and get 15% off your first order of electrolytes that match how you sweat by using the code "STRENGTH15".

Killian Jornet  and David Goettler recently returned from an attempt at an unassisted, oxygen-less ascent of Everest. Scott Johnston unpacks their experiences of acclimatization, and training cycles at altitude; the unique situation of climbing big mountains, post-lockdown; and the influences of social media on the projection and attainment of goals. 

George is very talented Mountain Runner who focuses on shorter sharper mountain races, however last October during the nations lock down he took on the Bob Graham round and beat Billy Bland's time which had previously stood for 36 years prior to Killian Jornet breaking it. At 13hrs 44min it hit the running community with a wave of amazement and truly out George on the radar, George has raced some of the most iconic races in the world such as the Sierre Zinal and Pike's Peak so as George had done quite a few interviews on his Bob Graham round I tried to unpack the journey that George had taken which has resulted in his latets performace. Hope you enjoy, and why not pick up a copy of Moire O'Sullivan's latest book about the calling of the Mountains....

Most of you will know Tom Landon-Smith as the Race Director of UltraTrail Australia but did you know he was a World class cross country skier and adventure racer? In Ep72 of Running Matters we discover the man behind the biggest monument of Australian trail running. We discuss the evolution of AROC sport, from a niche adventure racing company to being absorbed by global juggernaut Ironman and the expansion of UltraTrail from 150 runners to 7000 in a little over a decade.  We chat about some of the incredible performances  from athletes like Killian Jornet, Dylan Bowman, Brendan Davies, Lucy Bartholomew and Ryan Sandes but also why UltraTrail is such a welcoming and inclusive event for runners of all abilities. Tom covers the connection to the Blue Mountains and it's people and why keeping his event environmentally sustainable is of such importance. Tom details the never-ending challenges (fire, flood, pandemic, avalanche, etc) of trying to produce an event in 2020 and explains the final insurmountable hurdles for this year's race. As usual, we dig deep on the big issues like being swamped by muddy hugs on the finish line, carrying house bricks on the mandatory gear list and being dominated by his wife in the Perisher Pub Crawl for 7 years straight!

Ce type est un extra-terrestre ! Il a mis sa vie en danger pendant 5 ans pour apprendre de ses échecs. La profondeur de son CV sportif est impressionnant, et son parcours l'a amené à parcourir plus de 35 pays pour sa passion. Du bébé nageur à la Via Alpina … Guillaume Arthus nous détaille son parcours dans cet épisode rempli de bonnes pratiques et astuces. Guillaume est une personne vous le comprendrez rapidement en l’écoutant , structurée. Il ne fait pas les choses sans savoir pourquoi. Normal pour un comptable de métier me direz-vous. Le jour où il a entendu parler de la Via Alpina, il a su que c'était ce qu'il voulait faire. 5 ans après il terminait cette aventure à travers les alpes (16 fois l’UTM), longue de 2 650 km en 44 jours. Entre cette envie et la réalisation de l’objectif il y a eu 5 années de préparation avec au programme la Barkley, UTMB, Tor des Géants, Marathon des Sables mais aussi traversée des Pyrénées en 14 jours un record, Ultra Trail de Montmartre ou Tunnel Ultra -200 miles dans un tunnel- , tous les parcs nationaux aux US, et d’autres épreuves très souvent atypiques d’ailleurs. Il a travaillé et validé des compétences nécessaires à la réussite de son objectif en s'appropriant la méthode M.E.N.A ll y a du Killian Jornet chez Guillaume Arthus puisqu'il n'hésite pas à faire ses accessoires lui même pour atteindre le niveau de performance souhaité. Pour son autonomie et pour bien perfectionner son équipement, cela lui a pris presque 9 mois. Il a réussi à tout condenser dans un sac en dessous des 4 kg. Pourtant il y a tout : tente, duvet, matelas, veste étanche, balise GPS, etc… Je ne vous fais pas plus attendre et laisse place à mon invité du jour Guillaume Arthus.

Adam Kimble makes his second appearance on Everything Endurance shortly after joining the Beyond the Ultimate team as a Race Director! Kris and Will chat to Adam about his Great British Adventure in which he and Kris ran John O'Groats to Lands End with the 3 Peaks along the way. We also cover Adam's upcoming FKT in which he's looking to take a record from one Mr Killian Jornet. The conversation then somehow veers onto obscure 90s cartoons, but that sort of thing is to be expected by now. Kimbledore also shares some of his top tips for successfully running desert ultras. Adam is a very accomplished ultra-runner who has won and set course records at the Gobi March and Desert Ultra among others. Many thanks to bigmoosecoffeecompany.co for helping to make this possible.

The RunRunLive 4.0 Podcast Episode 4-412 – Maryro does Comrades (Audio: link) audio:http://www.RunRunLive.com/PodcastEpisodes/epi4412.mp3] Link MarathonBQ – How to Qualify for the Boston Marathon in 14 Weeks - Hello, my friends and welcome to episode 4-412 of the RunRunLive Podcast.  You'll have to forgive me an episode incongruity here, a non-linear scrap of publishing.  I had a couple interviews stack on top of each other, like the way you stack your hips in a yoga pose, and, apparently, in the race to you ears, episode 4-412 won out over episode 4-411.  Confused?  Don't be.  It will be fine.  Today, this week, you will get episode 4-412, an interview by my friend Alex, long time participant of the RunRunLive podcast experience, of another long-time friend of the show Maryro Mendez, who ran Comrades this year.  I'm always fascinated with Comrades.  It seems such a foreign place, an extreme adventure.  Both Alex and Maryro are world travelers.  I have yet to make it to Africa.  Except, maybe through enjoying a good read of “The Heart of Darkness”.  In section one I'm going to give you the run-down on the cow-pasture race.  I got some positive feedback on the uncertainty essay from last show, thank you for that.  I certainly appreciate it.  I struggled to write that last episode.  I felt too jacked up about other things.  I need a certain amount of alone time and contemplation to get the creative juices flowing and I couldn't get settled.  That has been solved!  I am took Vacation!  Yes, just my wife and I down on Cape Cod enjoying the beautiful weather.  Soaking up the sea breezes.  Very peaceful.  No internet.  Just reading and relaxing. In section two I'm going to piece together a vacation story for you.  … I took 5 days off from running and riding due to a sore knee.  It was one of those things where I probably tried to do too much too fast.  In this case the too much part had to do with going mountain bike riding with Anthony.  Don't get me wrong, I love Anthony. Anthony has taught me an un-repayable number of useful things about bikes and riding over the last decade.  But, for my second ride in the woods in two years he overestimates my ability.  And, I on my part feel compelled to keep up, like a boy trying to please his Dad.  I ended up bleeding from 4 different wounds at the end of the night.  Nothing life threatening.  Just those slow speed, slow motion crashes that stalk you when you haven't got the miles in yet. That little bit of uncertainty, that spoonful of tentativeness as you go into an obstacle those few millimeters off your line that find you wide in the turns and stuck in the bad spots.  You might call it ‘anti-flow'  On one of these slow speed crashes I couldn't clip out and took the full weight of mass times acceleration (due to the force of gravity) on a pointy rock with my left knee.  It hurt but didn't feel consequential at the time.  Over the next week it just ached a bit as I kept up my running and cycling.  Finally, with the race in the cow pasture Wednesday night,  going hard on uneven ground and the knee seemed to be more sore than it should be after a week, so I did the smart thing and took a few days off.  I was a bit worried I might lose fitness, but I managed to get over myself, and do a little core work and yoga instead.  Still a little sore, but I think it's on the mend.  We'll see.  I guess I don't heal as fast as I used to.  But, I feel pretty good and it's summer time, and the days are long and what can be wrong with that? On with the show! … I'll remind you that the RunRunLive podcast is ad free and listener supported.  What does that mean? It means you don't have to listen to me trying to sound sincere about Stamps.com or Audible..

There are book reviews, odd philosophical thoughts, zombie stories and I curate old episodes for you to listen to.  I recently added that guy who cut off is foot so he could keep training and my first call with Geoff Galloway.   “Curated” means I add some introductory comments and edit them up a bit.  So anyhow – become a member so I can keep paying my bills.   … The RunRunLive podcast is Ad Free and listener supported.  We do this by offering a membership option where members get Access to Exclusive Members Only audio and articles.

The nerve wracking 5 famous hills along the Comrades route, Cowies Hill, Fields Hill, Botha's Hill, Inchanga and Polly shorts. What ever people can say about this race, they would be falling short but I will just describe my own experience here. On our way to Durban, Andrey had a packed itinerary. We spent 2 days in Johannesburg and 5 days in Kruger National Park, chasing the animals and we were rewarded with amazing sightings. That on its own is worth a different write up. We arrived in Durban on Friday afternoon, went straight to the expo, picked up my race pack and wonder around a bit just to feel the vibe but not too long.  The city was filled with incredible energy. The people were amazing from day one. There is no hiding that I was scared, scared of failure, of not finishing. I knew I had put it a lot of work but also knew I had not been feeling quite right, mentally and physically. I also knew even when I was creative trying to do hill work, living in Rotterdam, NL I lacked that part. I felt excitement, fear and pure joy to be there. It was the fact that I was stepping in to the unknown but actually knowing that it was going to be the hardest race I had ever done that made this so especial. It was actually being part of a race that it is so important to a nation and you can feel it as soon as you land in Durban. Less than 10% of the 25000 runners are international runners, the rest are South Africans whom are very proud of their race. Only 20% are women. On Saturday Andrey went hiking up Royal Natal Park and also drove on the route while I stayed in the hotel resting. When he got back, he said “if you see those hills, the first 40km are the most difficult, you have never done anything like it. Even by car they look horrible” ok that scared me even more. “I got the belief, I will embrace the experience that I have earned after 5 months of hard training when conditions weren't ideal. I got the belief that I am enough, good enough to be here but I will be patient and cautious because no medal will come easy tomorrow” I said to myself on Saturday.  I woke up at 3:15, had some Ucan and almond butter, had a shower and we left for the start at 4:30 for a 5:30 start. Luckily our hotel was just in front so I was in my corral before 5. The atmosphere was incredible. I was next to a South African guy doing his 11th comrades. He started talking to me with a very zen like tone. He told me to be patient, that his first was also the up run and he did it in 10h15min. Even when my ultimate goal was to finish, on a good day I thought I could do 10h (A goal), my B goal was to finish under 10:30 but I thought “maybe my first can be close to this guy's 10:15”. I also wanted to finish before sun set (5:15 pm) The start is just amazing, very emotional no point describing because you have to be there to live it. Never felt such an emotional start in a race. I started my watch as soon as the gun went off because this race is gun time and all the cut offs and different medals are awarded by gun time. I was seeded in corral C so took me a few minutes to cross but not too long. I had my watch in overall time and average pace, this time I didn't want to get distracted  by mile splits that made no sense. It was very humid and I was sweating like crazy even when the sun was not out yet and I started to worry but tried to just keep it together. The sea of people in front and behind was incredible to see thinking we had 87 km to go. I followed Bruce Fordyce's advice and ignored the distance markers that go in count down mode.  I was running by feel and just checking my total time and average pace every now and again specially when I passed the cut off points (there are 7 in total) that would give a good idea of how much I was slowing down or not. I realised very early on that running up the hills in such a slow pace felt very inefficient, just didn't feel natural to me so I decided to power hike up the hills. This was not a walking break this was very intense walking. I was passing people running while I walked up the hills, felt just like Killian Jornet  . However I did not train my body to do this so every time I was changing from walking to running my calves would rebel against me. I could feel my lower back too. But I just when over the initial transition discomfort and continue and as soon as I was in running mode it felt good again. “do not stop” that was my other strategy, no matter what, I was not stopping for anything. And I didn't. There is no doubt as to when you are going up the big hills, they are relentlessly brutal. I was scared to ask anyone if we were at any of those hills in case I got NO for an answer. All along the route the atmosphere is delightful, the locals set up tents full of aid for people apart from the official 43 water stations and they do it every year. People singing, dancing, bbqing. Going pass the wall of honour was neat, thinking my name could be there once I finished. When I reached Arthur's seat I touched it out is respect and moved on. When I reached half way at 43km to go I knew I had just done the hardest marathon (a bit over a marathon) I had ever done in my life and I still had more than a marathon to go. I was supposed to see Andrey there but nothing. I struggled a little, but I said The only way you are not finishing this is if you do not make any the cut off point and you are forced to stop and get on a bus.  The 10h bus passed me. They are amazing to watch. You can hear them coming, it is like a pack of horses trotting and singing. I felt a little disappointed that there would be no sub 10 for me but I was clear by that point I had underestimated the course so I just continued with my mission. Suddenly with like 37km to go a familiar voice when I was not expecting “Moni, Moni” it was Andrey. That was my only stop. Maybe for just a minute or two. I grabbed a ucan bar and the hotshot anti cramp, which saved me because my calves were alive and kicking. My lower back was sore again for the power walking I am guessing. That gave me a second wind.  The10:30h bus passed me and I was between 1h30- 1h20 ahead of the cut off time at the check points every time. I caught up with the 10:30 bus again. I was going to stay with them but I felt good so left them behind.  The Coca Cola station is amazing and this kid starting calling, “my lady get a coke my lady” I grabbed a coke (never ever I drink real full sugar coke) and boy that felt good, it was iced cold. He said “I knew you wanted a coke my lady push on continue” and that my friends is reason 1568 I loved Comrades. With 20km to go I decided it was time to start counting down the km and noticed every km board. A runner with a green number that had done 13 Comrades started talking to me, he asked about my shoes, he congratulated me for my first comrades finish to which I thanked them but said that there was still 20 km to go. He said you will finish I know. With 17 km to go I saw Andrey up on a bridge after I went under it, again great surprise, I waved and continued. I reached little pollys, she is like The hiena, not part of the big 5 but her presence doesn't go unnoticed in the wilderness. When I hit the 10km to go mark, I started feeling for the first time that I had it in the bag. Now my aim was to go sub 10:15. Then Polly shorts shoes up, and there is no need to ask anyone, I knew this is the famous mighty one that stretches along for 2km.  Last 7 km I felt strong and full of joy. The down hills were hard, my toes were completely wrecked or so they felt. And the uphills even though shorter in comparison really sneaked up on you. 5 km to go and there he was again, I saw Andrey and I said “see you at the finish” saying that felt so good. I have say the performance of the day goes to him. Driving around with road closures it was messy. 4 km to go I kept checking my watch, 3 km to go and suddenly I felt it was taking too long for the 2k mark but then I saw 1km to go!!! I had missed the 2 km mark.  I was there, I got chills. Yeah and because it is Comrades there is one final mini climb a few meters to the finish. I crossed the line 10h 13 minutes and 55 seconds after the gun went off and got my bronze medal.  The different colour bibs depending on if you are national or international, the number of medals on your bib, the different medals depending on your finish time, the people oh the people and how passionate they are, all that make this race extra especial. With regards to nutrition I had 2 chia gels(low carb) and almond butter during the first third of the race. Then I started taking maurten gels I had 5 in total. I also had half a bar of ucan and some coke (I still can't believe I drank full sugar coke but the even had ice cubes!) in the second half. I think probably consumed about 1000-1200 cals. I never felt I needed to eat but I forced myself to have something every 30 mins or so. I also had high5 zero electrolyte tablets. I grabbed 2 water poaches in maybe 40 out of the 43 water station, they were always cold so one to drink and one for my head and neck. All races should have those. I realised now why this race was unique for me. I normally enjoy the training, the process more that the races themselves. Races are always an excuse for me to train. This time for the first time was the other way around, I enjoyed the race more than the training, the race was a whole process in itself that was changing me for the better as I went through. The race was a whole new experience.  From a performance standpoint I could say I am a little sad I didn't get a sub 10 but I am actually very happy my splits were consistent, I finished strong and I learned a lot. In the end it is only running so the time itself is nothing in comparison to what you gain as a person through running. But the type A person I am is already looking at what to improve  Comrades you are much more that people say, I will be back for the down run but next summer is already committed for other adventures so will be tight. If not in 2020 I will be back for the 100th Comrades in 2021 which will be another down run as it was the original...and maybe for my second I can properly aim for a better time  I am a runner because I run, I run because I am a runner  We carry with us, deep inside, the knowledge that we have faced our fears and conquered challenges, and with that brings confidence, peace of mind and self-belief. Section two – Puzzle Pieces -   Outro Well, my friends you run the uphill course to the end of the RunRunLive Podcast episode 4-412, see you in Paradise City. Got a couple nice long runs and rides in this week down the Cape.  I did my traditional long run on the beach in Chatham.  I went on the 4th itself and it was jammed with people.  Usually once I get a mile or so down the beach I'm pretty much alone, but on the 4ht of July people come out by boat and hang out all over the place.  At one point there was a seal on the beach injured, probably by a Great White Shark.  Some guy was yelling at me to, I guess, not run by it.  Chill out there Ranger Rick, it's a seal, not a unicorn.  When I came back the other way they had the seal EMT's there working on it.  There are a lot of seals and a lot of sharks now on the Cape.  I ran out of beach almost exactly at 5 miles.  Which gave me a nice tidy 10 for the outing.  I timed it well too.  I got out just after high tide. That means the tide is going out and you get a nice strip of hard sand. I got out this weekend for an 18+ mile trail run.  Felt ok.  It was a little hard at the end, but it's supposed to be.  I have to bring my volume up for the races I'm running this summer.  All in all I got a good mental rest.  I read a couple books.  The best one was a Bradbury collection of short stories from the 70's.  Great writer Bradbury.  The better read among you will smell a bit of Bradbury in my writing this week. One of the books I'm working my way through is ‘ by Jonathan Rauch.  He basically says that the science shows everyone's life arc is about the same.  You're happy when your young, you're miserable when you're in the prime of your life for the most part and then, in the last bit, the middle age forward, you get happy again, because, I guess you just don't really care anymore?  A couple things you can take form that.  One is that your happiness is different depending on what phase of life you're in.  Another is that it's, on average, the same experience for everybody.  There ya go.  Hang in there and it gets better.  And I'll see you out there.

The RunRunLive 4.0 Podcast Episode 4-412 – Maryro does Comrades (Audio: link) audio:http://www.RunRunLive.com/PodcastEpisodes/epi4412.mp3] Link MarathonBQ – How to Qualify for the Boston Marathon in 14 Weeks - Hello, my friends and welcome to episode 4-412 of the RunRunLive Podcast.  You’ll have to forgive me an episode incongruity here, a non-linear scrap of publishing.  I had a couple interviews stack on top of each other, like the way you stack your hips in a yoga pose, and, apparently, in the race to you ears, episode 4-412 won out over episode 4-411.  Confused?  Don’t be.  It will be fine.  Today, this week, you will get episode 4-412, an interview by my friend Alex, long time participant of the RunRunLive podcast experience, of another long-time friend of the show Maryro Mendez, who ran Comrades this year.  I’m always fascinated with Comrades.  It seems such a foreign place, an extreme adventure.  Both Alex and Maryro are world travelers.  I have yet to make it to Africa.  Except, maybe through enjoying a good read of “The Heart of Darkness”.  In section one I’m going to give you the run-down on the cow-pasture race.  I got some positive feedback on the uncertainty essay from last show, thank you for that.  I certainly appreciate it.  I struggled to write that last episode.  I felt too jacked up about other things.  I need a certain amount of alone time and contemplation to get the creative juices flowing and I couldn’t get settled.  That has been solved!  I am took Vacation!  Yes, just my wife and I down on Cape Cod enjoying the beautiful weather.  Soaking up the sea breezes.  Very peaceful.  No internet.  Just reading and relaxing. In section two I’m going to piece together a vacation story for you.  … I took 5 days off from running and riding due to a sore knee.  It was one of those things where I probably tried to do too much too fast.  In this case the too much part had to do with going mountain bike riding with Anthony.  Don’t get me wrong, I love Anthony. Anthony has taught me an un-repayable number of useful things about bikes and riding over the last decade.  But, for my second ride in the woods in two years he overestimates my ability.  And, I on my part feel compelled to keep up, like a boy trying to please his Dad.  I ended up bleeding from 4 different wounds at the end of the night.  Nothing life threatening.  Just those slow speed, slow motion crashes that stalk you when you haven’t got the miles in yet. That little bit of uncertainty, that spoonful of tentativeness as you go into an obstacle those few millimeters off your line that find you wide in the turns and stuck in the bad spots.  You might call it ‘anti-flow’  On one of these slow speed crashes I couldn’t clip out and took the full weight of mass times acceleration (due to the force of gravity) on a pointy rock with my left knee.  It hurt but didn’t feel consequential at the time.  Over the next week it just ached a bit as I kept up my running and cycling.  Finally, with the race in the cow pasture Wednesday night,  going hard on uneven ground and the knee seemed to be more sore than it should be after a week, so I did the smart thing and took a few days off.  I was a bit worried I might lose fitness, but I managed to get over myself, and do a little core work and yoga instead.  Still a little sore, but I think it’s on the mend.  We’ll see.  I guess I don’t heal as fast as I used to.  But, I feel pretty good and it’s summer time, and the days are long and what can be wrong with that? On with the show! … I’ll remind you that the RunRunLive podcast is ad free and listener supported.  What does that mean?

The nerve wracking 5 famous hills along the Comrades route, Cowies Hill, Fields Hill, Botha’s Hill, Inchanga and Polly shorts. What ever people can say about this race, they would be falling short but I will just describe my own experience here. On our way to Durban, Andrey had a packed itinerary. We spent 2 days in Johannesburg and 5 days in Kruger National Park, chasing the animals and we were rewarded with amazing sightings. That on its own is worth a different write up. We arrived in Durban on Friday afternoon, went straight to the expo, picked up my race pack and wonder around a bit just to feel the vibe but not too long.  The city was filled with incredible energy. The people were amazing from day one. There is no hiding that I was scared, scared of failure, of not finishing. I knew I had put it a lot of work but also knew I had not been feeling quite right, mentally and physically. I also knew even when I was creative trying to do hill work, living in Rotterdam, NL I lacked that part. I felt excitement, fear and pure joy to be there. It was the fact that I was stepping in to the unknown but actually knowing that it was going to be the hardest race I had ever done that made this so especial. It was actually being part of a race that it is so important to a nation and you can feel it as soon as you land in Durban. Less than 10% of the 25000 runners are international runners, the rest are South Africans whom are very proud of their race. Only 20% are women. On Saturday Andrey went hiking up Royal Natal Park and also drove on the route while I stayed in the hotel resting. When he got back, he said “if you see those hills, the first 40km are the most difficult, you have never done anything like it. Even by car they look horrible” ok that scared me even more. “I got the belief, I will embrace the experience that I have earned after 5 months of hard training when conditions weren’t ideal. I got the belief that I am enough, good enough to be here but I will be patient and cautious because no medal will come easy tomorrow” I said to myself on Saturday.  I woke up at 3:15, had some Ucan and almond butter, had a shower and we left for the start at 4:30 for a 5:30 start. Luckily our hotel was just in front so I was in my corral before 5. The atmosphere was incredible. I was next to a South African guy doing his 11th comrades. He started talking to me with a very zen like tone. He told me to be patient, that his first was also the up run and he did it in 10h15min. Even when my ultimate goal was to finish, on a good day I thought I could do 10h (A goal), my B goal was to finish under 10:30 but I thought “maybe my first can be close to this guy’s 10:15”. I also wanted to finish before sun set (5:15 pm) The start is just amazing, very emotional no point describing because you have to be there to live it. Never felt such an emotional start in a race. I started my watch as soon as the gun went off because this race is gun time and all the cut offs and different medals are awarded by gun time. I was seeded in corral C so took me a few minutes to cross but not too long. I had my watch in overall time and average pace, this time I didn’t want to get distracted  by mile splits that made no sense. It was very humid and I was sweating like crazy even when the sun was not out yet and I started to worry but tried to just keep it together. The sea of people in front and behind was incredible to see thinking we had 87 km to go. I followed Bruce Fordyce’s advice and ignored the distance markers that go in count down mode.  I was running by feel and just checking my total time and average pace every now and again specially when I passed the cut off points (there are 7 in total) that would give a good idea of how much I was slowing down or not. I realised very early on that running up the hills in such a slow pace felt very inefficient, just didn’t feel natural to me so I decided to power hike up the hills. This was not a walking break this was very intense walking. I was passing people running while I walked up the hills, felt just like Killian Jornet  . However I did not train my body to do this so every time I was changing from walking to running my calves would rebel against me. I could feel my lower back too. But I just when over the initial transition discomfort and continue and as soon as I was in running mode it felt good again. “do not stop” that was my other strategy, no matter what, I was not stopping for anything. And I didn’t. There is no doubt as to when you are going up the big hills, they are relentlessly brutal. I was scared to ask anyone if we were at any of those hills in case I got NO for an answer. All along the route the atmosphere is delightful, the locals set up tents full of aid for people apart from the official 43 water stations and they do it every year. People singing, dancing, bbqing. Going pass the wall of honour was neat, thinking my name could be there once I finished. When I reached Arthur’s seat I touched it out is respect and moved on. When I reached half way at 43km to go I knew I had just done the hardest marathon (a bit over a marathon) I had ever done in my life and I still had more than a marathon to go. I was supposed to see Andrey there but nothing. I struggled a little, but I said The only way you are not finishing this is if you do not make any the cut off point and you are forced to stop and get on a bus.  The 10h bus passed me. They are amazing to watch. You can hear them coming, it is like a pack of horses trotting and singing. I felt a little disappointed that there would be no sub 10 for me but I was clear by that point I had underestimated the course so I just continued with my mission. Suddenly with like 37km to go a familiar voice when I was not expecting “Moni, Moni” it was Andrey. That was my only stop. Maybe for just a minute or two. I grabbed a ucan bar and the hotshot anti cramp, which saved me because my calves were alive and kicking. My lower back was sore again for the power walking I am guessing. That gave me a second wind.  The10:30h bus passed me and I was between 1h30- 1h20 ahead of the cut off time at the check points every time. I caught up with the 10:30 bus again. I was going to stay with them but I felt good so left them behind.  The Coca Cola station is amazing and this kid starting calling, “my lady get a coke my lady” I grabbed a coke (never ever I drink real full sugar coke) and boy that felt good, it was iced cold. He said “I knew you wanted a coke my lady push on continue” and that my friends is reason 1568 I loved Comrades. With 20km to go I decided it was time to start counting down the km and noticed every km board. A runner with a green number that had done 13 Comrades started talking to me, he asked about my shoes, he congratulated me for my first comrades finish to which I thanked them but said that there was still 20 km to go. He said you will finish I know. With 17 km to go I saw Andrey up on a bridge after I went under it, again great surprise, I waved and continued. I reached little pollys, she is like The hiena, not part of the big 5 but her presence doesn’t go unnoticed in the wilderness. When I hit the 10km to go mark, I started feeling for the first time that I had it in the bag. Now my aim was to go sub 10:15. Then Polly shorts shoes up, and there is no need to ask anyone, I knew this is the famous mighty one that stretches along for 2km.  Last 7 km I felt strong and full of joy. The down hills were hard, my toes were completely wrecked or so they felt. And the uphills even though shorter in comparison really sneaked up on you. 5 km to go and there he was again, I saw Andrey and I said “see you at the finish” saying that felt so good. I have say the performance of the day goes to him. Driving around with road closures it was messy. 4 km to go I kept checking my watch, 3 km to go and suddenly I felt it was taking too long for the 2k mark but then I saw 1km to go!!! I had missed the 2 km mark.  I was there, I got chills. Yeah and because it is Comrades there is one final mini climb a few meters to the finish. I crossed the line 10h 13 minutes and 55 seconds after the gun went off and got my bronze medal.  The different colour bibs depending on if you are national or international, the number of medals on your bib, the different medals depending on your finish time, the people oh the people and how passionate they are, all that make this race extra especial. With regards to nutrition I had 2 chia gels(low carb) and almond butter during the first third of the race. Then I started taking maurten gels I had 5 in total. I also had half a bar of ucan and some coke (I still can’t believe I drank full sugar coke but the even had ice cubes!) in the second half. I think probably consumed about 1000-1200 cals. I never felt I needed to eat but I forced myself to have something every 30 mins or so. I also had high5 zero electrolyte tablets. I grabbed 2 water poaches in maybe 40 out of the 43 water station, they were always cold so one to drink and one for my head and neck. All races should have those. I realised now why this race was unique for me. I normally enjoy the training, the process more that the races themselves. Races are always an excuse for me to train. This time for the first time was the other way around, I enjoyed the race more than the training, the race was a whole process in itself that was changing me for the better as I went through. The race was a whole new experience.  From a performance standpoint I could say I am a little sad I didn’t get a sub 10 but I am actually very happy my splits were consistent, I finished strong and I learned a lot. In the end it is only running so the time itself is nothing in comparison to what you gain as a person through running. But the type A person I am is already looking at what to improve  Comrades you are much more that people say, I will be back for the down run but next summer is already committed for other adventures so will be tight. If not in 2020 I will be back for the 100th Comrades in 2021 which will be another down run as it was the original...and maybe for my second I can properly aim for a better time  I am a runner because I run, I run because I am a runner  We carry with us, deep inside, the knowledge that we have faced our fears and conquered challenges, and with that brings confidence, peace of mind and self-belief. Section two – Puzzle Pieces -   Outro Well, my friends you run the uphill course to the end of the RunRunLive Podcast episode 4-412, see you in Paradise City. Got a couple nice long runs and rides in this week down the Cape.  I did my traditional long run on the beach in Chatham.  I went on the 4th itself and it was jammed with people.  Usually once I get a mile or so down the beach I’m pretty much alone, but on the 4ht of July people come out by boat and hang out all over the place.  At one point there was a seal on the beach injured, probably by a Great White Shark.  Some guy was yelling at me to, I guess, not run by it.  Chill out there Ranger Rick, it’s a seal, not a unicorn.  When I came back the other way they had the seal EMT’s there working on it.  There are a lot of seals and a lot of sharks now on the Cape.  I ran out of beach almost exactly at 5 miles.  Which gave me a nice tidy 10 for the outing.  I timed it well too.  I got out just after high tide. That means the tide is going out and you get a nice strip of hard sand. I got out this weekend for an 18+ mile trail run.  Felt ok.  It was a little hard at the end, but it’s supposed to be.  I have to bring my volume up for the races I’m running this summer.  All in all I got a good mental rest.  I read a couple books.  The best one was a Bradbury collection of short stories from the 70’s.  Great writer Bradbury.  The better read among you will smell a bit of Bradbury in my writing this week. One of the books I’m working my way through is ‘ by Jonathan Rauch.  He basically says that the science shows everyone’s life arc is about the same.  You’re happy when your young, you’re miserable when you’re in the prime of your life for the most part and then, in the last bit, the middle age forward, you get happy again, because, I guess you just don’t really care anymore?  A couple things you can take form that.  One is that your happiness is different depending on what phase of life you’re in.  Another is that it’s, on average, the same experience for everybody.  There ya go.  Hang in there and it gets better.  And I’ll see you out there.

Hoy hablaremos de minimalismo. Vamos a ponernos un poco técnicos para hablar de una de las mayores diferencias entre correr descalzos y con zapatillas: las fuerzas de impacto que recibe nuestro cuerpo. Y ahora vamos con el tema que nos ocupa. En el episodio trataré los siguientes puntos: Historia Problemas al empezar a correr descalzo sin más Fuerzas de impacto Diferencias de pisada al usar calzado Qué cambios hay cuando descalzas a un corredor y le pones a correr descalzo Qué cambios hay en corredores descalzos cuando se calzan Motivo de molestias en sóleos y gemelos al empezar con el minimalismo Variables que se interfieren en el impacto: Carga máxima Carga en el momento del impacto Velocidad con la que recibimos el impacto Transición Conclusión y opiniones A continuación os dejo un par de opiniones al respecto del artículo en el grupo amigos del minimalismo: Jose Padilla: en serio reducís a que desde Usain Bolt, Nuria Picas, Emilie Fossberg, Killian Jornet, Anton Kuprica no utilizan minimalismo porque les paga una marca el ponerse una zapatilla? Detrás de estos Atletas hay un equipo técnico, investigación para y por el atleta y os aseguro que si debieran usar minimalistas lo usarían. Te aseguro que la técnica en pisada de Iván Raña (y este ha corrido algún triatlon descalzo, Frodeno, etc) es algo que tu solo puedes imaginar. En serio me da risa cuando se habla desde la ignorancia. El calzado minimalista es una opción pero no la solución a cualquier problema en atletismo. Para cada competición se establece un punto de partida de investigación en atletas de alto nivel y resulta que ahora uno que lleva practicando deporte... que ponemos 10 años en alto nivel como mucho y creo que me he pasado, es un erudito en podología y técnica de pisada por el simple hecho de haber fabricado sus huaraches, practicado la técnica de pisada, aguantar alguna que otra fascitis plantar y ahora sentirse diferente y mejor atleta por usar este tipo de calzado. Pues os equivocáis. Y que conste que yo ya hace 8 años pase de correr de Salomon a drop 1 con new balance y de ahí a Merrell y Five Fingers !! y ohhh milagro me volví a pasar a Saucony y de ahí Salomon Slab por que en carreras de 120 km a temperaturas gélidas una persona normal no debe usar este calzado,porque no todos tenemos la capacidad de Karim el Hayani. Emilio Sáez Soro: Como dice Jose Luis al final será la realidad la que se imponga. Es obvio que hay transiciones más complejas que otras. Por ejemplo correr en la montaña muchos kilómetros con calzado minimalista y no te diré nada descalzo, como dice Jose Padilla supone una desventaja "competitiva" obvia. La cuestión es que con tiempo y una caña nos podemos adaptar a todo, a cualquier terreno y a cualquier distancia. Y en ese sentido yo que combino entrenamiento en montaña con entrenamiento en asfalto no le doy más vueltas porque en todos los terrenos experimento como descalzo nos adaptamos de forma maravillosa aunque en algunos casos el rendimiento tiene que quedar en segundo plano. Así tengo claro que no puedo aterrizar descalzo sobre rocas afiladas sino que me tengo que deslizar sobre ellas acariciándolas más que pateándolas, y sí, soy más lento pero al igual que no me hago daño en el asfalto aterrizando de ante pie tampoco me lo hago buscando los mejores apoyos, en cada paso distinto jugando entre las rocas. Y es que mi conclusión al respecto, es que el correr natural es adaptativo y es otro mundo, puede gustar más o menos, pero en sí, acaba resultando algo muy distinto a correr aislado de la tierra. Espero que os haya resultado interesante este episodio más técnico de lo habitual, si es así os agradeceré esas valoraciones de 5 estrellas en Itunes y comentarios y me gusta en Ivoox. GRACIAS por apuntaros a los CURSOS. Ya sabéis que para cualquier cosilla os responderé encantado desde el apartado CONTACTAR. ¡Gracias por estar ahí! y nos escuchamos el lunes ¡Buen finde y sed fel...
