Cedro Peak Ultra Marathon 45k Race Report

Image
The Cedro Peak Ultra Marathon 45 · Saturday April 7, 2012 in Tijeras, New Mexico. The car’s temperature gauge read 37 degrees and it felt like it. I turned in my drop bag, checked into the race, and retreated back to the car with my buddies. We decided to wait until five minutes to the start of the race to head to the starting line. The race was set to start to at 6 a.m. There was an EZ UP with Christmas lights directly behind the starting line. The majority of the runners huddled together under it making last minute adjustments to their watches, headlamps, and gear. As the race director thanked his wife and the volunteers, the clock ticked away to zero. With the sound of watches being started we slowly made our way down a congested narrow path. It was slow going; some runners weaved in and out of the traffic jam. A few even hurdled over a log to jockey for position. After crossing the parking lot and heading into the forest, you could see the beams from headlamps and hear t

A Humbling Experience... Flagstaff 50 Mile Endurance Run

Image
Course Info! Elevation  of race was between 7,000 and 9,000 feet. The course featured five significant climbs on Upper Oldham (1850+ ft), Lower Weatherford (1750+ ft), Friedlein Prairie Road (1100+ ft), Little Gnarly/Brookbank (1400+ ft), and Heart Trail (1900+ ft). To celebrate my year anniversary of ultra running I decidedto give the Flagstaff 50 Mile Endurance Run a shot.   I knew this would not be an easy run, but felt like I needed to challenge myself with a run that scared the hell out of me.   A few days removed from the event, I have mixed emotions, but know I have gained a ton of knowledge from this experience. This morning I got a text from my buddy that said, “Lots of fun W/good people over shadowed a sucky run….”   That text really hit the nail on what this weekend was about.   Yes we went up to Flagstaff for a race, but we also went to enjoy the fellowship we share as runners out on the trail. 5 minutes until the start of the race I walked to the startline.   Buf

9 nights until my first Ultra Marathon

As of today, I got 9 nights before toeing the line of my first ultra marathon, the 2011 Noble canyon 50k in California.   http://noblecanyon50k.com/ Running an ultra has been a dream of mine since I read the book “ Born to Run ” by Christopher Mcdougall.   I been training for months and it is hard not to be excited and want to share my journey with my co worker's, church friends, and family.   I ’ m not sure many of them really understand what I am doing. I get the feeling many think I am flat out crazy or weird.   Being a runner I am used to facing adversity on my own.   In many ways it fuels my fire to achieve.   Don ’ t get me wrong, there are times I want to skip a workout or feel sluggish in the first few miles; but once the runner ’ s high kicks in I get to where my only focus is putting one foot in front of the other, and enjoying my freedom from the stress of this crazy world.   I heard a great qoute from Jimmy Dean Freeman on www. ultrarunnerpodcast.com   He said someth
