Personal:

Born 1972 in north central Wisconsin

Married for 11 yrs to very supportive non-running wife. Two children : Fiona, 6 (in picture) and Elliott (2 yrs)

Co-Race Director of  Delano Park 12 Hour Run (www.delano12.com). President of River City Runners (www.rivercityrunners.org)

3 cats and 1 dog (chocolate lab)

In high school, I was an slightly overweight , badly asthmatic J.V. cross country runner.  I enjoyed being part of the team but never excelled.   The summer after my freshman year in college I decided to run a marathon.  6 weeks later I ran a 3:11 at Grandma's Marathon in Duluth (1991) and I was hooked on long distance running where my asthma wasn't as much of a factor.

This was my first run in 3 weeks.  Took time off for the birth of my son  and to give my plantar faciatis time to rest.

 

The birth went great.  He is a great little guy.

The rest seemed to have no effect on the plantar faciatis.  I've been struggling with that since Feb 2007.

This run was my "tour of separated subdivisions" run.  There were two pairs of subdivisions in Decatur featured in the newspaper over the past month.  As they grew, the subdivisions got closer together to the point where it made civic sense to join them.  The neighborhoods protested citing increased traffic and decreased privacy.   The city ceded to one of them and constructed a large wall that prevented foot and vehicular traffic between the two.  Vandals spraypainted "Decatur's Berlin Wall" and "Mayor, Tear down this wall" on it.

I had to check out both of these so it became a "destination" run.  This is the best type of run for me.  No set distance or time.  Just run from here to there to see what you can see.  Tourist run of a sort.

Another run of this mold was the Run Across Morgan County.  7 of us parked on one side of the county 6am one morning.  3 of us kept running till we reached the other side of the county (34miles).  The last 15 miles was very hilly (3 ~400+ ft climbs).  It was great.  My friends wife got a picture of the three of us by the "Leaving Morgan County" sign.    Being in Alabama, this had some good Forrest Gump undertones.   Maybe someday we will run clear across the fine state of Alabama.

8:09 pace.  Nice weather- sunny, high 40's-low 50's.  Scouting out 5 mile course for new race in May. 

Starting base training for ING Georgia Marathon in late March and also the Strolling Jim 40 in yearly May.  After not running any marathons in 2007,  I'd like to get back under Boston Qualifying time at least.  2007 was an ultramarathon year for me with three 50K's and an 8hr timed ultra (50.8 miles).   I found that I missed the marathon distance and over the past couple months vowed to do 2 or 3 in 2008.     

I've found that ultras have been less painful both during and after compared with marathons.    This is partly due to the surface (trails mostly) but more so due to the fact that I tend to run comfortably in an ultra to make sure I finish while in a marathon's I push the pace to the lactate threshold and beyond and tend to leave less on the table after the race.  Ultras are more like extra lengthy long runs than races.  You just can't push the really pace hard and expect to last 4-8 hours.

Welcome to the blog! Good luck in your training for the ING Georgia. That is some impressive results in your ultras. Those are crazy...

Welcome to the blog from the Pachevs! My husband who owns the blog believes that you can't improve your marathon until you improve your mile....sounds like you are in good company here...hope you enjoy it!

Welcome to the blog! I've volunteered at an aid station for a 100-miler...that's about the closest I've come to doing something like that.

Welcome to the blog! How closely knit is the running community in Decatur? There is a 2:20 marathoner I've raced against that lives there - his name is Michael Green. I believe is British. Wonder if you know him.

You can improve your marathon without improving your mile until you max out your endurance. After that, in order to improve your marathon, you need to find something that will give you more of what I call Quality X - pure running speed that does not come from fast twitch muscle fiber power and is therefore sustainable once the endurance is developed. If you are successful, this will improve your mile time among other things.

The challenge with ultras is that it is difficult to train for them and race them without damaging your Quality X. But not impossible, I think, although I do not know how. But I would guess is that you need to focus on running smooth and with good form all the time. If it gets worse as you go further, it is time to stop, eat, take a nap, stretch, and then continue.

Sasha,

Decatur's running community is pretty close knit. I didn't know Michael Green. I did look at http://www.marathonguide.com/results/search.cfm and found that he won our local marathon (Rocket City) in 2003 in a 2:20. After 2003, it look like he moved back to GBR and has posted some nice times in the London Marathon.

Thanks for the encouragement in the quest for speed. When I started marathoning, I focused solely on endurance. In fact for several years, I had raced more marathons than 5K's. My PR only came after I started incorporating 800 repeats into my training. I still need to get over the mental block of thinking its hard to run much faster. At this point, I think it would be easier to run 100 miles than run a 5:00 mile. Maybe so, but I need to start the quest.

Nice weather again.  51F and Sunny.    Lunch run from work on the trails.  8:02 pace.   Hard to call some of this an easy run due to all the hills.   Its runs like this that I'd like to trade in my Garmin 205 for a 305 so I can target a HR in addition to pace.

Still a bit of a cold.  Sinus and a itchy cough.  Lungs have been spared mostly.  If I were to do a race now I'd feel it in the lungs as well.

Body seems to be adjusting to the slow ramp in mileage.  I haven't decided what my weekly peak will be.  With the new baby, I won't much have time for two-a-days.  I've only ever done one week over 60 miles.   Not much different than my top daily mileage - 54 miles (Mtn.Mashocist 2006 in Lynchburg, VA) which is funny to me.  I think my body can take it but its a matter of making the time.
