AD: ARNELL GROUP Reebok1-3 LETTER FROM THE EDITOR THE PREMIER RUNNING COLLECTION BY REEBOK Hello Runners! During these long, hot days of summer, many of us skip the pavement and choose to run and hike on dirt. We all love the beauty of Colorado’s extensive trail network, and while most runners don’t abuse their privilege to use the trails, here’s advice worth reminding everyone. Stay on established trails. Creating your own or taking shortcuts can cause erosion, widen the trail and destroy the surrounding vegetation. These are also the reasons why it’s important to skip the trails when it’s muddy. Know the rules of the trail. Most trails have posted signs about whether the trail is open to dogs, bikers, horseback riders, etc. Also, some agencies have rules about who must yield to whom. But despite the guidelines, remember to be respectful of everyone. You may be trying to run hard, but that doesn’t mean you have to slam into the slower runner in front of you or play chicken with the mountain biker riding down the hill. Keep control of your dog. Runners don’t appreciate confrontations with aggressive dogs. You may think Fang is a gentle Rottweiler, but other runners and hikers might not appreciate his friendliness. Also, pick up after your dog. Do I need to explain why? Don’t litter. Not only does it look ugly, but plastic gum, candy and energy bars wrappers can be eaten by some animals, causing them to choke. Don’t run through closed trails. Some areas protect grazing elk, nesting raptors or growing vegetation. If it says, “Keep Out!” then there’s probably a good reason why. Have fun training!

July/August 2004 FSM II MEN’S 10.75 10.5 10.625 FSM II WOMEN’S ROAD LITE II MEN’S ROAD LITE II WOMEN’S New Study could make conventional sports drinks obsolete. A remarkable new study could change the way athletes fuel their bodies during training and competition. In the July issue of Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, researchers at James Madison University report powerful evidence that consuming a modest amount of protein in a sports drink during exercise can increase endurance, reduce muscle damage, and enhance recovery. Fifteen male cyclists completed a stationary ride to exhaustion while drinking either a conventional carbohydrate sports drink (Gatorade®) or a sports drink containing carbohydrate and protein in a 4:1 ratio (Accelerade®). The following day, the cyclists completed a second ride to exhaustion at a higher intensity, this time without drinking anything. The results will be of great interest to all athletes. On average, the subjects were able to cycle 29% longer in the first ride and 40% longer in the second ride 15 hours later when given Accelerade than when given Gatorade. In addition, the carbohydrate-protein drink was found to reduce post-exercise levels of CPK, an indicator of muscle damage, by 83%. This study confirms previous ones demonstrating improved endurance when consuming a carbohydrate-protein sports drink. Scientists have long known that simply adding more carbohydrate to a sports drink does not make it more effective. There seems to be a special synergy between carbohydrate and protein. “Regardless of the specific mechanisms, these findings may have important implications for endurance athletes,” reported the study’s lead author, Michael Saunders, Ph.D. The study provides clear evidence that a carbohydrate-protein sports drink such as Accelerade increases endurance, accelerates recovery, and reduces muscle damage significantly more than a conventional carbohydrate sports drink such as Gatorade. 4 CONTENTS Features Colorado High School Track & Field Stars...

Ashley Owens sets a new state record in the 200 meter race running 23:42. of 5:07.92 in the 1600. Alamosa’s Laura Knapp outlasted Conifer’s Angela Potrykus for the 800 meter victory. Ashley Owens of Liberty High School set two new 4A state records by winning both the 100 (11.34) and 200 (23.42) meter races. One of the top ten fastest sprinters in the nation, it marked the fourth consecutive year Owens captured both titles. The top prep sprinter plans to attend the University of Nevada-Last Vegas and train for the Olympics. At Dutch Clark Stadium in Pueblo, the 3A boys distance competition was dominated by D’Evelyn’s John McGuire, who won the 3200, the 1600 and the 800 meter races. McGuire won the 3200 by more than 20 seconds in 9:38.70 over second-place finisher Todd Tolentino of Brush and then ran the 800 in 1:53.49. The next day, McGuire cruised to a 1600 meter win in 4: 17.57 in front of Sheridan’s Derek Ongalo. In the women’s distance events, Rachel Gloscia of Buena Vista won the 3200 meter race in 11:20.91 then raced to the front of the pack to capture the 1600 meter title in 5:11.38. In the 2A championships, Classical Academy’s Emily Hanenburg won the 1600 meter race in 5:26.44, then captured the 3200 meter title in 12:02.02. In the boy’s competition, Glenn Randall of Plateau Valley won the 3200 meter race by eight seconds in 9:51.81, but lost the 1600 by less than a second, finishing in 4:39.25 to Limon’s Israel Ortiz who clocked 4:39.18. A fast pace is set in the 4A men’s 800 meter race. What is your Foot Type? Competitors in the 5A Men’s 1600 meter race ran as a pack for the first half mile. T he 5A Colorado Track and Field Championships at the Jefferson County Stadium began with an early upset. Thornton’s Bradley Harkrader surprised the field by beating race favorite Ryan Deak of Smoky Hill in the 3200 meter run. Harkrader won by 26 seconds, quite a margin considering the distance. After four laps, Harkrader sprinted to the front, gaining a big gap over the pack and finishing in 9:15.16. Deak didn’t let it happen again. During the following day’s 1600 meter race, Harkrader surged ahead once again, but this time Deak followed. Deak squeaked by with a two-second win, finishing in 4:16.46 and helping his team capture the men’s team title. Both Harkrader and Deak plan to run for CU next year. In the men’s 800 meter run, Palmer’s Michael Greenwood beat Dan Read of Lakewood with a finishing time of 1:53.13. Smoky Hill’s Katelyn Kaltenbach added four more titles to her ever-expanding resume during the two-day competition on May 21 and 22. On day one, she edged out teammate Morgan Schulz in the 3200 by just three seconds, finishing in 10:56.57. She also beat Schulz in the 800, finishing in 2:12.81. On the second day of competition, the distance star anchored the Buff’s winning 4x800 relay team and grabbed the 1600 victory in 4:57.07, beating runner-up Morgan Schulz for a third time in two days and leaving the rest of the field far behind. In the 4A competition at Jeffco Stadium, Evergreen’s Jeremy Freed won the 1600 in 4: 28.81, edging out runner-up Aaron Clark of Broomfield. Clark went on to win the 3200 meter race the following day in 9:46.16. In the 800, Ranum’s Anthony Luna outsprinted the pack in the last 150 meters to win in 1:54. 81. In the girl’s competition, Summit’s Whitney Anderson snagged both the 3200 and the 1600 meter titles over Heather Loseke of Pueblo East.

Runners battled 25 mile an hour winds on the rural, rolling course. In her first road ultra, Schmid, a trail specialist and former Leadville 100 winner, gradually reeled in her prey and captured the third and final qualifying spot in 8:31:39. Littleton’s Tania Pacev, Boulder’s Dave Mackey and Boulder’s Chad Ricklefs were also selected to compete on the 100K road team, which will run at the World Cup in The Netherlands in September. The University of Colorado’s sophomore star distance runner Dathan Ritzenhein set an American collegiate record in the 10K at the Stanford Invitational on April 30 in Palo Alto, California. He finished sixth in the race, his first ever track 10K, in 27:38.50. This bettered Ed Eyestone of BYU’s 27:41.05 from 1985. The time also met the Olympic “A” standard and crushed the CU school record set in 1973 by Ted Castaneda (28:30.6). Less than 24 hours later, Ritzenhein followed his new record with a 14:08.40 win in the Big 12 Outdoor Championships 5K in Norman, Oklahoma. Boulder’s Colleen De Reuck set a new masters 5K world road record in 15:48 at the 26th Freihofer’s Run for Women in Albany, New York on June 5. The time tops Russia’s Firaya Sultanova-Zhdanova’s pending 15:55 world record from 2003. At the National Trail Championships in Vail, Simon Gutierrez of Taos, New Mexico won the men’s crown and Laura Haefeli of Del Norte captured the women’s title. The June 5th race offered a $5,000 prize purse and was held in conjunction with the Teva Spring Runoff. The 6.4 mile race includes 3,000 feet of elevation gain and loss on Vail Mountain. Haefeli, a seven-time U.S. national biathlon champion, surprised a strong women’s field. Olympic Marathon Trials competitor Katie Blackett placed second and last year’s champion, Telluride’s Kari DiStefano, finished third. In the men’s race, Josiah Middaugh, a pro triathlete from Vail, earned second place. The Credit Union Harvest 5K is one of several new races being planned in the upcoming months.

Imagine running on Stride Matters by Adam Feerst Is your stride long or short? Fast or slow? Do you shuffle, pound, or glide over the ground? Improving your stride can increase your speed and reduce your risk of injury. Any energy that doesn’t go into moving you forward is wasted. The goal is to minimize those flaws. Here are few tips and drills you can do to make some quick improvements. Leg Lift A high knee lift is more efficient than a shuffle. While that may sound strange, it makes sense when you think in terms of physics1. Swing a weight at the end of a rope or piece of string. The shorter the string, the easier it is to swing the weight. The same goes with your legs. The closer the weight (i.e., your foot) is to the pivot point (i.e., your hips), the less energy it takes to drive forward. Leg lift should come from your hips, not from your push off. Lift your knees from your hips, while you drive forward with your calves, quads and hamstrings. Watch hurdlers run in the Olympics this summer. They are actually stepping, not jumping, over the hurdles. Their power is driving them forward, not up. Here are a few drills: Hip swing: Stand with one hand on a wall, tree, or fence to the side. Lift your outside leg. Standing on a block or edge of a curb makes this easier. With your knee slightly bent, swing your leg forwards and backwards. Try to create a smooth swing. Initiate the swing from your hip, not your quads. Focus on your muscles and keep your quads relaxed. Place your hand on the hip joint. This will help you feel if your hip is swinging or if the swing is coming from your quads. It can also help to watch yourself while you stand in front of a mirror. I often do hip swings before the start of my runs. High knees: Take 20-30 strides lifting your knees as high as they can go, like the leader of a marching band. Repeat this drill 3-4 times. Focus on lifting from your hips rather than leaping with your calf muscles. To make sure your calves are propelling you forward as much as possible rather than up, add the butt kicker drill below. Butt kickers: Take 20-30 strides literally kicking your butt with your heals. Repeat this drill 3-4 times. This simulates an efficient push off. I always do this after high knees to make sure I am striding forward rather than up. Running Stairs: First, find a set of stairs, like at a stadium, office building or park. If you can’t find a good set of stairs, find a moderately steep hill with good footing. Practice stepping, rather than leaping up each stair. Keep your stride short and quick. Try only doing one stair at a time, even if you can easily do more. If you are doing this on a hill, keep your stride very short and quick. Do several repeats of 30-60 seconds. You can do more or less, depending on your fitness. The goal is to work on your form, so don’t make the climb too hard. Hurdles: Place a set of objects on the ground. You can use concrete blocks, 4x4s, bricks, or rocks. They don’t need to be as high as track hurdles. Set them a couple of steps apart. Practice on one side at a time, lifting your leg over the object as you stride. Do this several times on each leg. You can increase the height as you get better. Turnover There are two ways to run faster: take longer strides or take faster strides. Increasing length requires increased strength and flexibility, which takes time. Increasing leg speed is a learned skill, but it’s something that can be improved quickly and without big increases in fitness. Leg speed is especially important at the end of races, when you are tired and don’t have the strength to lengthen your stride. You can find that finishing kick by increasing your leg turnover. Watch the middle distance (1500m - 10km) track racers at the Olympic Trials and Games this summer and you’ll find that their leg turnover significantly picks up in the last lap. Count your strides: The easiest way to increase your leg speed is Running over small hurdles can improve leg lift. 10 July/August 2004 to count your strides. Count the number of strides you take in a minute. This is more easily done on flat ground, but you should also do this on hills and trails if that’s where you race and train. Make note of it in your training log. Simply counting your strides will make you more aware of your turnover. Thinking about your turnover will get you to start stepping quicker. hot coals so that you don’t want your feet on the ground too long. Push off as soon as your feet hit the ground. It may help to think about shortening your stride when you first start doing this. As your stride becomes more efficient, your stride length should naturally lengthen with your turnover. I usually do this drill before my speed workouts. I’ll sprint the straights, then jog the curves. The goal is to see how quickly I can step, not how fast I can get to the other end of the track. I also try to do something similar as part of at least one other non-track run each week. Road Races ~ Multi-Sport Event Management and Timing Services Stairs: The stair drill (above) is another good way to increase your leg www.bkbltd.com speed. Focus on keeping your stride short and quick. 2004 Events Calendar and Information: Upcoming Events: July 03 Lean Where you are looking and your lean affects your foot strike. If you are looking down, you will tend to shuffle and hunch over. This requires you to push your body weight in front of your muscles. It closes off your hip joint, shortens your stride, and compresses your lungs. If you look up and lean back, you will tend to pound. This requires you to drag your body weight behind you. It is much more efficient to carry your weight in alignment. With a slight forward lean, your hips, chest and head should all be in line with your ankles. Look forward and slightly down. If you are running uphill, look up the trail. This will help drive your hips up, rather than into the hill. If you need to watch your feet, it’s better to lower your chest rather than your head. It’s OK to occasionally look down and around. You do need to keep your neck relaxed. Wall: Stand about two feet away from a wall and fall forward. Initiate the forward lean with your hips; your chest should follow. Just before you hit the wall, bring your hands up to catch the wall just in front of your chest. Look down at your body. If it’s done right, your body should be in a line and you shouldn’t see a bend at your waist. Falling forward: Stand straight, then gradually lean forward. Bend at your ankles, bringing your hips and chest forward together. Initiate the forward movement from your hips. As you begin to fall, stride forward. When it’s done right, it should feel a bit like you are falling forward as you run. Listen to the Rhythm The next time you go out running, listen to your foot strike and to those around you. This works best on a dirt path. You’ll hear the dirt grinding with the shufflers and thudding with the pounders. An efficient stride will sound soft and smooth. If you shuffle, focus on the leg lift drills above. Lift your head and look ahead rather than at your feet. If you pound, you should also work on leg lift, focusing on lifting from the hip and stepping over the hurdles rather than bounding over them. Also spend time with the quick step drill, especially thinking about the hot coals and being quick and light on your feet. The goal is to step lightly and spend very little time on the ground. Continue to use the rhythm of your stride as feedback. As you incorporate the above techniques, you should begin to notice a change in the sound of your stride. Working on your stride can increase your running speed and enjoyment. There are many elements to good running form. These are just a few techniques and drills you can start to do quickly.

I finally bought one of those little radios that’s about the size of a quarter and thought I’d give it a try at the Las Vegas Marathon a few years ago. That turned out to be a bad idea since the marathon started in the middle of nowhere, 26 miles outside of the city. The radio reception was terrible and I could only get one country and western station to tune in from the race start. I remember very distinctly one song I had to endure. It was called “If I’d killed you when I wanted, I’d be out by now”. That little radio is in some ditch outside of Las Vegas. Since then, I’ve tried running with nonskip CD players, but they skipped. Tape players are lighter but there was never a tape long enough to keep the same songs from playing over and over. Longer tapes are thinner and tend to get wound around the drive spindle. And all of those devices needed batteries which, as they ran down, played the music slower and slower. Now we’ve come upon the era of the mp3 player. These players are much lighter than previous music recording devices, but many models don’t have enough memory to keep you from hearing the same songs over and over again. When the original 15 GB iPod came on Griffiths runs through a hail storm at the Eisenhower Marathon with his iPod. the market, I bought one and decided to test it out at a 10 mile race. The iPod was fully charged and I liked the fact that I didn’t have to ever replace batteries. Starting out in the 10 miler, everything seemed fine. The iPod was tucked away in one of the flap pockets in my shorts, but it was a little too heavy and bounced around a lot. Then it started to skip... a lot. It skipped on every song. Then it stopped, so it had to be reset and started again. The control buttons were difficult to use while running and very touchy. It had to be reset four times. Then the battery ran down at about mile seven. Now I’m not that slow, but it should have lasted longer than a 10 miler, so back it went to the retailer. I remember very distinctly one song I had to endure. It was called “If I’d killed you when I wanted, I’d be out by now”. That little radio is in some ditch outside of Las Vegas. When the 4 GB iPod mini hit stores, I thought I’d give Apple another try and bought it. The controls were more stable and easier to use while running than the full-sized model. I was able to change songs easily during a run without even looking at the mini. Plus, it was a lot lighter and came with a belt clip. I decided to test the mini at the Eisenhower Marathon in Abilene, Kansas. My goal was to run the entire race without listening to the same song twice. The race started without a hitch and the mini worked flawlessly. Then a hail storm hit at mile 12. The weather worsened and I began looking for a tornado to take me to OZ. I was covered with welts, but the little mini worked perfectly and it never skipped and the same song never played twice. What really sold me on the iPod mini occurred at mile 25. There was a girl in front of me. She had been in front of me the entire race and I was unable to catch her. At mile 25, she rounded a corner and looked back. I was 100 yards behind her. Then… the song changed and on came Garth Brooks and his Cowboy Cadillac. That Cadillac just picked me up and carried me right past her with 100 yards to go. What a great feeling. Allen Griffiths has run more than 30 marathons. He currently has 697 songs in his iPod music library and claims to have tested thousands of songs to compile the perfect running play list.

But that’s just one side of this couch potato turned super athlete who has raised more than $35,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Team in Training. I Ross Kinney dances with Kelly, his leukemia and lymphoma patient honoree. n the last five years, Ross Kinney has participated in eleven Team in Training events - five marathons, three half marathons, one Olympic distance triathlon and two century rides. He’s come a long way since his couch potato days. Ross says he couldn’t run 100 yards when he first joined Team in Training. “This just came along at a good time in my life. I was a middle aged male looking for a larger purpose in my life. I got a flyer in the mail and something about the program intrigued me, so I went to an informational meeting and signed up on the spot that night. Little did I realize that the decision was about to change my life forever.” And change it did. Ross is now the only Colorado TNT member to complete the Triple Crown, an award given to an athlete who finishes a marathon, a century ride and a 14 July/August 2004 triathlon. “It was never a goal of mine to complete the Triple Crown, but it was something that just kind of happened. I developed a chronic running injury in 2002 and I wanted to stay active in the program, so I signed up to do the Olympic distance triathlon event.” After the triathlon, Kinney’s nagging injury kept him away from marathon training, so he signed up for a century ride instead. “It just sort of evolved during the process of recovering from a long term running injury.” Now Kinney says he can’t believe how much running has changed his life. “I remember the first day I ran a sub-10 minute mile. I felt like I had won an Olympic medal. That was such an accomplishment for where I had started as a runner. “Running has evoked so many positive changes in my life and even though I am firmly in the middle of the back of the pack, I enjoy running as much or more than those that are much more gifted than I am as a runner. “ Kinney believes that running and participating in the Team in Training program has not just helped him get fit, but also has given him the confidence to do things that he wouldn’t have dared to do before. “It has really helped me with my career. I am much more comfortable speaking in public. It has also helped me deepen my relationship with my wife and children. I was kind of on the edge of corporate burnout and becoming a work-a-holic. TNT helped me to refocus my priorities on what matters most.” Kinney admits that finding the time to train can be difficult, between a demanding schedule at work and at home. “I have two active teenagers that have lots of after school and weekend activities. Training for a marathon requires discipline and you just have to set some time aside to stick to your training. My wife and kids have been very supportive and understanding of the time and commitment it takes to do this.” He admits that most of his motivation comes from the personal connection he has with Kelly, his patient honoree from his first season with TNT in 1999. “She is someone that I consider to be a role model in my life and is a constant source of inspiration. Kelly is why I am still involved with TNT after five years. I had promised Kelly when she relapsed in January, 2001 that I would keep running for her as long as she needed me.” Some runners may shy away from fundraising groups like Team in Training because they’re worried that it’s tough to find the money. Kinney admits that he was worried too when he signed up. “The first season I fundraised, I didn’t think I would be able to meet the minimum, which was $2,800 in 1999. But I was able to raise $7,405 for that event. I even had one of my colleagues at my office helping me fundraise away from work. I think in the first week after I sent out my letters I had over $1,100.” Kinney hopes that worries about fundraising won’t deter runners from finding out more about running groups like Team in Training. “It gives you a chance to give something back to others. It really is a lifealtering experience and I consider it the greatest thing I could have done in my life.” ActiveCare Chiropractic & Rehab � Chiropractic � Training Program Design & Analysis � Acupuncture � Nutrition/Diet Analysis � Active Rehab � � � � Biomechanical Assessment Massage Orthotics Golf Swing Analysis and Conditioning Programs Dr. Ken Sheridan/Dr. Jim Wood Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist Certified Golf Fitness Instructors Past Biomechanics Instructor at Metro State College 5 mile & 10 mile off-road running races Sunday, July 11 ~ 8am Nederland Elementary School Indian Peaks Trail, Nederland, CO Races to benefit the Orphans of AIDS Trust Fund Register on-line at active.com or at any of the Boulder Running Company locations Our goal is patient education & continued activity while you recover. � www.getactivecare.com � www.getactiveclass.com GOLDEN 303-279-0320 For more information www.BoulderRunningCompany.com ...at least for three days and three nights at the women’s trail running adventure camp in magnificent Telluride, September 23 through 26.

Follow this guide and you’ll get from the start line to the finish line with ease. Race day nutrition is highly individualized. Often times the rule of thumb is, “If it tastes OK in training, chances are it won’t work in a race. If it tastes great in training, it might work in a race.” Because racing situations greatly magnify and change the taste of all food and drink, it is important to remember that the best source of calories and fluid for a race comes from those that you can get down and keep down. Most of the time, fluids or gels are usually a better choice than solid foods. Depending on the length of your race and the environmental conditions, you may or may not need more or less fuel than what you are used to taking in. Water can be used in race situations of 30 minutes or less while sports drinks or easy-to-digest foods or liquids should be used for events taking longer than 30 minutes. Carbohydrates and sodium are the most important nutrients during competition and should be an integral part of your race nutrition plan. HEAT+SUGAR = PROBLEMS Race Morning You will need to eat to refill your glycogen stores because you are coming off of an overnight fast and internal glycogen stores are used as you sleep. Eat 2-4 grams of carbohydrate (8-16 calories) per kilogram of body weight (divide body weight in pounds by 2.2 to get kilograms). For example, a 150-pound runner would weigh 68 kilograms and need to consume 136-272 grams of carbohydrate. This should be done 2-4 hours before the start of the race. During this time you should also drink 17-20 ounces of sports drink, and then drink another 7-10 ounces 10-20 minutes prior to the start. During The Race Since athletes absorb different amounts of calories per hour, it is important to experiment with quantity during training. In general, consume 30-60 grams of carbohydrate 18 July/August 2004 (120-240 calories) per hour. Because fluid empties from the stomach very differently from one athlete to the next, experiment with fluid quantities during training. In general, drink 24-48 ounces of fluid per hour, or 6-12 ounces every 15-20 minutes. It is important to try to drink more sports drinks rather than water during the race in order to replenish used carbohydrates and sodium. Some athletes may require more than these recommendations based on body size and the intensity of the race, and others may require slightly less. Keep in mind that what works for someone else might not necessarily work for you. After The Race Hydration is just as important after the race as it is during the race. Immediately after the race, drink 20-24 ounces of sports drink for every pound of body weight that is lost. In addition, eat 1.0 to 1.2 grams of carbohydrate per kilogram of body weight within the first 30 minutes after a race. This can come in the form of liquid or solid, whichever you prefer, and should never be forgotten. There is still debate in the scientific world regarding the addition of protein to recovery nutrition, but preliminary studies show that the addition of protein to post-race nutrition could enhance muscle repair and provide important nutrients for the immune system. A general rule of thumb is to consume a 3:1 or 4:1 ratio of carbohydrates to protein after a race with a total of 6-20 grams of protein total in that meal. Don’t forget about sodium! Sodium facilitates the entry of glucose and water into cells so choose sports drinks with at least 110 milligrams of sodium per 8 ounces and choose higher sodium snacks after a race. Finally, reward yourself with a mixed meal containing carbohydrates, protein and fat about two hours after you finish and keep drinking those fluids so you re-hydrate your body. Remember, a well-planned nutrition program may mean the difference between a win and finishing feeling good, or dropping out and feeling terrible at the finish. Don’t overlook nutrition while training for your race. Plan ahead and try it in your training before race day... especially during your harder, longer, and more intense training sessions.

That same year, Adams State set an NCAA record by tallying a perfect score to win the team title with a four second spread between their top five runners. Castillo, a nine-time All-American under coaching icon Joe Vigil, entered the Army in 1998 upon receiving his Masters degree in health from Adams State. While in the Army’s World Class Athlete Program, Castillo has run 2:19:19 for the marathon in 1999, 49: 29 at the Army 10 Miler in 2000, and 29:25 for 10,000meters in 2002. American Track & Field reporter Jeremy Borling caught up with sergeant Castillo at the ‘Chicago Moves’ celebration in Chicago, where he was with other Army members promoting health and fitness in the city. Photo by Brenda Barrera/Running Network JB: How is your running going these days? Castillo: Right now my training has been put on hold. I leave in August to go to officer candidate school and I’ll graduate in May. After that I have to make a huge decision about my running. JB: How does the Army’s World Class Athlete Program work? Castillo: It’s a three year tour to train for the Olympics. It gives you the opportunity to compete at the national and international levels. There is equal opportunity for all soldiers to be accepted into the program, all you have to do is fill out an application. There are runners, swimmers, boxers... JB: How does the World Class Athlete Program serve the Army? Castillo: It’s great exposure for the Army. Basically, we’re running billboards. We do a lot of traveling nationally and we do recruiting, visit high schools and talk to students. They get to see that joining the Army is not just about picking up a weapon and going to Iraq. There are so many different opportunities. It gets them excited about something new. JB: With your position in the Army, is there a chance that you could be sent to the war in Iraq? Castillo: It’s always a possibility. My training is as a transportation officer, which is the backbone of the military. We’re in it for the long haul in Iraq. We have a job to do over there. JB: Do you still think about that great cross country season you had back in 1992? Castillo: It’s a feat we still talk about today (scoring 15 points at nationals). It’s a feat that Coach Vigil still talks about today. JB: Was that team made up entirely of Americans? Castillo: Yes. The team that previously held the record (for low points at a cross country national meet) was UTEP, and I think they had all Kenyans. So the fact that it was all Americans on our team was quite on honor. JB: What do you think about the ‘Chicago Moves’ program (a program that encourages people to exercise for at least 30 minutes, three times per week)? Castillo: It’s better late than never. In major cities, you see these statistics about obesity and it’s sad. So it’s good to see them doing something for the people. I hope there are more events like this. Hopefully it will catch fire with people and help them promote a healthy lifestyle for themselves. JB: What is the Army’s role here today? Castillo: Fitness is a huge discipline in the Army. You have to be physically fit and mentally fit. Those things are important on the battlefields. www.coloradorunnermag.com 21 Avoiding Injury Oh, My Aching Shins! S hin splints are a very common source of frustration to runners of all abilities, and can strike out of nowhere in people who have run pain free for years. “Shin Splints” is a catch all term for pain in the lower leg which can be felt in front, on the sides, or even behind the lower leg bones. Just like “headache” being a catch all term for pain in the head which can originate in the neck, TMJ and sinuses, shin splints have a number of causes. by Dr. Ken Sheridan Stress fractures of the tibia occur after “training through the pain” of shin splints for some time. Stress fractures are fractures or breaks that do not pass completely through the bone. This pain will be felt by touching directly on the tibial ridge in front of the lower leg. These may or may not show up on x-rays, and will show up on a special imaging test called a bone scan. Also, if the strain to the tibialis anterior or posterior muscle is severe enough, pain directly on the tibia itself will be present, even in the absence of stress fractures. Compartment syndrome is a little more complex. The muscles of your lower leg are separated into Also known as “medial tibial stress syndrome” (sounds expensive to get rid of, doesn’t it?!), there are four main causes of shin splints: 1. Strain of the tibailis posterior muscle (most common). 2. Strain to the tibialis anterior muscle. 3. Stress fractures of the tibia (the main weight bearing bone of the lower leg). 4. Compartment Syndrome. The tibialis posterior muscle assists in holding up the arch of the foot; footwear without enough arch support will allow the arch to drop too far and too fast (which is called over pronation). As the arch drops, it pulls on the tendon that attaches the tibialis posterior muscle to the bone, placing increased strain on the muscle. With 1500 footfalls per mile, the repetitive stress leads to breakdown. Tibialis posterior pain can be felt just to the inside and behind of the ridge made up by your tibia on the front of your leg. The tibialis anterior muscle pulls your foot and toes upwards (called dorsi-flexion). At heel strike (with 3 to 5 times body weight), the forefoot and toes want to slap down hard, which would lead to increased pronation. This tendency is reduced by quick contraction of the tibialis anterior pulling up on the forefoot and toes. Tight heel cords (calf muscles) will add to the situation. Tibialis anterior pain can be felt to the front and outside of the same tibial ridge. 22 July/August 2004 Preventing Shin Splints 1. Shin splints are usually brought on by training errors, usually too much (distance/intensity) too soon. Increasing your weekly mileage over 10% a week, or increasing your long slow run more than 10% may predispose your to injury. Increases in intensity, such as track workouts and hill running, without a proper base will also predispose you to injury. 2. Improper footwear may also be the culprit, particularly if the shin splints occur on both sides. Shoes that allow excessive pronation (collapsing of the arch) will place added stress on the muscles responsible for supporting the arch or prevent the forefoot from slapping down too hard at heel strike. Harder training surfaces will increase these forces on the feet. Such a change may occur while on vacation. Packed dirt is the most ideal surface, pavement would be approximately twice as hard, and concrete is 33% harder than pavement.

The forefoot slapping phenomenon can be diminished by stretching out a tight heel cord. Be sure to stretch the calf with the knee straight and bent 56 times throughout the day with one repetition for best results. four compartments by connective tissue called fascia. This fascia needs to have the ability to expand as the muscles of the lower leg become engorged with blood while running. Without enough room to expand, the muscles begin to choke off their own blood supply and impede their oxygen supply. This creates a condition known as ischemia, which is painful and grows worse as we continue to run. Continued training can cause tissue damage, making this a more serious condition than those mentioned above. Pain associated with compartment syndrome comes on after enough training occurs to create this ischemic condition, and therefore varies with the extent of compartment tightness. This pain should subside as the engorgement of the muscles subsides, and therefore should not be present with just walking. 4.

More than 300 runners gathered at the Boulder Reservoir on Saturday, April 24 to run a variety of distances ranging from just one mile to 20 miles. The one mile and five mile events were out-and-back courses along the trails at “The Res.” The 10 mile event featured a loop course that took runners out onto the dirt roads of Boulder County. For those brave enough to attempt the 20 mile event, they were teased as they passed the finish line at the halfway mark and had to start another 10 mile loop. Boulder’s Adam Chase won $500 in the 20 mile event, running 2:18:07, more than two 24 July/August 2004 minutes ahead of the second place runner. In fourth place overall, Boulder’s Alena Grabowski took the top women’s prize in 2:25:22. In the 10 mile run, Denver’s Ben Marvin outpaced the pack to win in 56:03 and Boulder’s Katie Blackett finished seventh overall to grab top honors in the women’s race in 1:04:44. Both won $300 for their efforts. The most popular distance of the day was the 5 mile run with 170 finishers. Jason Hill edged out masters runner Rick Bruess for the victory, taking home a $150 prize with a time of 28:12. Laura Bruess was close behind to win the women’s race in 32:36. To win $50 out of the prize purse, Michael Brouillette ran the mile in 5:20. Amanda Ortiz finished the women’s mile in 9:13. At the finish line, runners celebrated to the music of local disc jockey William Wycoff while enjoying food, drinks, and raffle prizes. Each participant also received a new red Brooks technical running shirt. The race benefitted the Orphans of Aids Trust Fund, which provides care for children in South Africa orphaned as a result of AIDS. On a global level, 8,000 people a day die from AIDSrelated illnesses. No country has been hit harder than South Africa, where five million children and adults are living with the AIDS virus - more than 70% of the world’s AIDS cases.

Bolder Boulder 10K May 31, 2004 Boulder, CO 43,638 Finishers Full results at www.bolderboulder.com On a windy day at the foot of the Flatirons, Meb Keflezighi, Abdi Abdirahman, and Lafayette’s Alan Culpepper ran to triumph, capturing the men’s Training at an early age! 26 team title for a Colorado crowd at Folsom Field. Previously, the U.S. men had not finished better than third in the Bolder Boulder team competition. The women’s elite team of Nicole Hunt, Boulder’s Katie Blackett and Nikole Johns of Ft. Collins finished at the back of the pack, but the women were happy to gain experience running with an international field. Hunt said, “This was unbelieveable. I’m so honored to be here. This is like the Olympics for me.” In the citizen’s race, Josh Eberly, an Arvada West High School and Western State grad, raced to victory with a time of 30:22. Immediately after the race, Eberly said he was packed up and ready to move from Gunnison to Michigan to train with the Hanson’s elite team. 18-yearold Bradley Harkrader claimed second place in 30:53. The recent Thornton High School graduate will attend CU next fall. Lidia Simon of Romania won the women’s citizen race in 34: 00. The Sydney Olympic marathon silver medalist said she was out for a fun run and didn’t want the pressure of running in the elite race. She was training in Boulder to prepare for the Olympics at a high elevation. With belly dancers and an Elvis impersonator cheering them on, the rest of the pack ran, and often walked, among costume-clad participants. About 47,000 runners registered for this year’s event and more than 43,000 finished the race, marking the second year for a decline in numbers. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18.

If you’re planning on running next year’s marathon, be warned: runners have to catch buses beginning at 4 a.m. to be shipped to the start of the point-topoint course. In an effort to keep the course both scenic and fast, organizers are already planning a few course changes for next year. Bud Light Old Town Marathon Male Overall Runners cross the starting line of the third annual Fort Collins Old Town Marathon. Fort Collins Old Town Marathon, Half Marathon and 10K May 9, 2004 Fort Collins, CO Finishers: 508-Marathon, 756-Half Marathon, 250-10K T he Fort Collins Old Town Marathon race brochure boasts that every mile is downhill. That’s the kind of race statistic that draws runners in droves. The marathon starts at an elevation of 6,099 feet and finishes a gentle 1,119 feet lower. The course profile certainly seems to help runners finish with fast marathon times. In fact, race director Steve Cathcart boasts that it’s the fastest marathon course in the state and has a higher percentage of runners who qualify for the Boston Marathon than any other race in the nation. In just its third year, the race attracted 1,500 runners between three events. Both the marathon and half filled to capacity. Course records fell in nearly every running category. The most thrilling win of the day was awarded to 27-year-old Daniel Shaw of Ft. Collins. Shaw destroyed the men’s marathon course record to win the race in 28 July/August 2004 an astonishing 2:25:55. Of the fast time, Cathcart said, “I believe Daniel ran the fastest marathon in Colorado in over 15 years.” The old marathon record was 2:41:20 and the next closest finisher was 18 minutes behind Shaw. Shaw was also the winner of last fall’s Ft. Collins Easy Street Marathon, which he easily won in 2:28:25. In the women’s marathon, it was a close race between Alyssa Shaw and Aurora’s Erica Pedron. Shaw took the victory in 3:10:22, with Pedron finishing just a minute later in 3:11:35. The husband and wife double victory for Daniel and Alyssa made for a sweet finish. The race day weather was typically unpredictable. It was an unusually hot day for early April with temperatures climbing into the 80’s by mid afternoon. Runners were greeted to breathtaking scenery in the beautiful Poudre River Canyon, but after mile 16, racers left the cool canyon and baked as they ran into town. The Premier Mortgage half marathon course followed the second half of the marathon course. A record was set in the men’s half marathon with Paul Digrappa running a blazing 1:09: 41. The 23-year-old Ft. Collins resident broke Peter Fleming’s previous record of 1:10:34, which was set just last year. Masters runner Mercedes Gil battled Justin McMillan from Highlands Ranch in the women’s half marathon. Gil won by just seven seconds to finish in 1:23:41. Gil is the 2002 women’s marathon winner and she owns the marathon course record of 2:59:04. In the Rio Grande 10K, course records also fell. Two new records were set with Tyler Foos winning the men’s competition in 34:05 and masters runner Jane Welzel taking the women’s race in 40:24. There’s no better place for a post-race awards celebration than a brewery, so race organizers got it right by hosting the postrace ceremony at Coppersmith’s Brew Pub in Old Town Ft. Collins. There was no marathon medal for finishers but there was a nice assortment of finisher’s gifts, including gloves, a pint glass, a technical Brooks running shirt and a painted tile. The race benefits the Northern Colorado Running Foundation, a nonprofit organization that focuses on improving running in Colorado.

Over 200 runners participated in one of Colorado’s oldest races. Only Imogene Pass and Pikes Peak can claim longer existence. The Narrow Gauge runs are a snapshot of modern running history. In the 1970s, Frank Shorter had a running store in Durango and he ran the hilly 10-mile course. Running philosopher and writer George Sheehan also ran the race in the 1970s. But Narrow Gauge runs are more about local runners, neighborhood and community than they are about big names, prize money and champion chips. There are no appearance fees paid for professional runners, there is no prize money and timing is still performed by two people holding Seiko hand timers. What Narrow Gauge lacks for in modern equipment and amenities, it easily makes up for in spirit and heart. Friendly volunteers along the course hand out water with a smile. The race started this year next to the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. Tico Navarro, first-time race director and twenty-five year veteran at the helm of the Duke City Marathon, did a remarkable job coordinating the train whistle and the race start. The courses wind through residential neighborhoods while making use of the Animas River Trail and a delightful, small wooden bridge. Sounds like a jog in the park but at mile six, the 10-mile runners ascend the first of two hills while gaining more than 500 feet. With runners already gasping for air at the top of North College Drive, they have about 1/4 mile of a flat road section to catch their breath before tackling the steep Rim Drive, next to the Hillcrest Golf Course. After one loop around the breathtaking Fort Lewis College campus, runners can finally open up their stride as they run a fast downhill on Goeglein Gulch. The race finish line, in historic downtown Durango, was provided, courtesy of Red Bull, in the form of a giant, colorful arched balloon. “As teachers, we have traveled from Albuquerque to the last eight or so Narrow Gauge runs as a kick off to summer,” David Hinman said. David and his wife Laurie both use the run as a barometer to measure their racing fitness levels. “We assess what needs to be done to prepare for later events in the summer. We just love the Durango community and especially Durango Motorless Transit (the area’s running club).” Pine Needle Mountaineering and Brown’s Sport Shoe donated prizes for this year’s event. Many sponsors, including Morehart Chevrolet and Subaru, Four Corners Heart Clinic, Southern Ute Indian Tribe, First National Bank, Doubletree Hotel, Rakita Physical Therapy and Steamworks Brewing Co., donated time and money to help make this year’s race a big success. Race proceeds were given to the DMT/FLC cross-county scholarship that provides funds for area high school seniors who want to run and attend Fort Lewis College. Marc Witkes is a runner and freelance writer in Durango. He is the president of the Durango Motorless Transit running club. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Trail Review Eagle Trail Boulder, Colorado 5/26/04 6:52 PM Page 1 6 races 10,000elevation feetgainin Double Dog Dare ya' by Derek Griffiths R unner’s can spend years exploring Boulder’s maze of trails, from cruising the paths at Chautauqua Park to climbing the rocky edges of Mt. Sanitas. But a local trail favorite remains the Eagle and Sage trails, which sit to the north of the city near the Boulder Valley Ranch. The trailhead is easily accessible and offers gorgeous views of the Front Range and the Flatirons. The Eagle and Sage trails offer a smooth, dirt surface that is well maintained and ideal for beginning trail runners. In most spots, the trail is fairly wide and flat. This is the place to go if you’re in the mood for a tempo run or a leisurely run, not if you’re yearning for a lung-burning climb. There are several small lakes along the well-traveled paths. You’ll encounter prairie dogs, a few horses, as well as cattle grazing on native grasslands as you race through the prairie. To get to the trailhead, drive north from Boulder or south from Longmont on the Diagonal Highway, Colorado 119. Turn west on Jay Road for about 200 meters, then turn north on 51st Street. You’ll pass the Boulder Reservoir on your right. Keep driving and turn left into the parking lot marked Eagle Trail. You can also access this trail from a different entrance by driving to the Foothills Trailhead parking lot off 28th Street and Route 7. For an easy 3.7-mile run, start at the Eagle trail parking lot and run along the double track dirt path for a half mile. At the first intersection, turn right to follow the Sage trail. The trail travels a large loop and this section of the Sage trail is 1.8 miles. Each time you meet an intersection, simply choose to turn left. The first intersection will arrive after a half mile. You will come to the second intersection in another 0.6 miles where you will run through the Boulder Valley Ranch Parking lot, veering left. Follow the Sage trail and the Farmer’s Ditch another 0.7 miles until you reconnect with the Eagle trail. Here you will turn left to continue the circle for another 0.9 miles. You’ll pass a beautiful, small lake that’s a popular swimming spot for dogs. Climb a short, steep hill to return to the original intersection of the Eagle/Sage trails. Turn right to follow the trail back to the parking lot for a 0.5 mile finale. It’s easy to add onto this basic loop for a 6-mile run. Start at the Eagle trail parking lot and follow the directions described above until you reach the Boulder Valley Ranch parking lot. Here you will make a right turn onto the Cobalt Trail. This single track is more technical, so make sure to watch your footing. Once you crest the hill, you will cross over the dirt road and turn left onto the Mesa Reservoir Trail. You will dip down into a valley and come upon a trail crossing. Turn left here, run past the wetlands surrounding the Mesa Reservoir and follow this up to the Eagle Trail and make a right. As you run along this flat section you will be treated to a great view of the Boulder Reservoir off in the distance. Follow the Eagle Trail down a short, steep hill where you will intersect with the Sage Trail. Continue straight along the Eagle Trail and follow the above directions back to the start. These are just two of the countless options available in the area. There are many more interconnecting trails worth exploring during your runs. This area is great for year-round trail use, although be prepared during inclement weather because the area is exposed to Boulder’s infamous roaring winds and summertime thunderstorms. 44 July/August 2004 Teva Vail Mountain Trail Running Series Saturday, June 5 Teva Mountain Games Spring Runoff 2004 USA Trail Championships Sunday, June 20 Teva 10K @ 10,000 Feet Sunday, July 4 Teva Vail HillClimb 2004 NACAC Mountain Championships Sunday, July 25 Teva Vail HalfMarathon Sunday, August 15 Teva Berry Picker Trail Run Saturday, September 18 Teva Evergold Your glass sneakers await.

The day had dawned unseasonably cool, but typically dreary, for the 700 plus triathletes at Craigsville Beach, outside Hyannis, Massachusetts. And now, as I observed the proceedings from my vantage point on the side of the road, the sun had completed its daily trip across the sky and the thick blackness of a late September, New England night had engulfed the Cape. My mind began to wander as I thought back to the beginning of the day. The drive from the hotel to the beach with my good friend Brian; the subdued energy of Pink Floyd in my headphones; cool, hard sand squeezing between my toes as I stood on the beach, the start of the swim segment of the race moments away; the overwhelming feeling of restrained anticipation as we waited to unleash ourselves in pursuit of what each of us had been training for. But most of all I remember how, when the starting gun fired, my focus went from what was around me to what was inside me… the will to succeed. The crowd on the beach welcomed each swimmer ashore as a hero returning from battle. We ran up the beach towards our trusted steeds, racked row after row in the bicycle corral. The transition from swimmer to cyclist that took place in the corral was a scene of mass hysteria. Stampeding athletes were everywhere. Wetsuits were frantically pulled from weary bodies and tossed in the general direction of wives, husbands, friends or anyone who happened to be near. The madness continued in earnest as tired, wobbly-legged swimmers tried to find their “land legs” and remember where they had racked their bicycles. In the midst of all this confusion, cool-headed (or perhaps tranquilized) volunteers herded the athletes toward their waiting stallions. Once aboard my bike and safely away from the tangle of activity that was the transition area, I began to relax. The blur of the road markings passing beneath my wheels gave me a more satisfying sense of progress than I had experienced immersed in the vast sameness of the ocean. As each mile disappeared beneath my wheels I became more confident that, after five years of preparation, today would be the day I would reach my goal. Today I would finish an Ironman distance triathlon. As I approached the seventy-mile mark of the bike course, the clouds broke and a deluge of water began to pour down from the sky. I completed the last forty miles of the bike course in a sea of water. The few parts of my body not being pelted with water from above were being drenched with spray from the tires beneath me. I flowed into the transition area after more than five hours on my bike. As if on cue, the rain abruptly stopped. I returned my bicycle to its designated spot on the bike racks and as I sat down to change into my running shoes, I briefly contemplated the 46 July/August 2004 events of the day and what remained to be done. The day began with a 2.4 mile swim in the shark infested waters (all ocean water is shark infested, right?) off Cape Cod. Then I pedaled my bicycle up and down the length of the Cape through wind and rain and now only needed to run 26.2 miles to complete my odyssey. Unfortunately, the thought of running 26.2 miles found its way to my traumatized legs before I could stifle it... my legs were not happy. With each step I took, the effects of the cycling sunk a little deeper into my muscles and weighed a bit heavier on my mind. As I left the bike corral and headed toward the road where the final battles of the day would be waged, my friend Brian caught up with me. “How would you like some company for a few miles?” he asked as he fell in stride beside me. At that moment I was caught in a tug-of-war between my mind, which wanted to continue, and my body, which was trying to tell me I couldn’t. I gratefully accepted his offer of companionship. When we reached the seven-mile mark, Brian decided he’d had enough fun for one day and opted to call it quits and catch a ride back to the start/finish area. As he stepped to the side of the road, he fed me the standard fare of “You’re looking good, hang in there!” As he crossed the road to catch a ride he shouted after me that he would drive back out on the course later to check on me. With the companionship of Brian gone, I was on my own, faced with running nineteen miles on legs that struggled just to lift my feet off the ground and keep me shuffling down the road. Sometime after sunset, between the fourteenth and sixteenth mile, my mind could no longer sustain the efforts of my body and I moved to the side of the road as the silhouette of a runner shuffled by. So here I am. The pain has ended for me. I watch as the runner in front of me shuffles on toward the next mile marker in pursuit of his Holy Grail... a piece of metal with a red, while and blue ribbon attached that attests to the fact that he has finished an Ironman distance triathlon. I wonder what he is thinking, what he is feeling? Does he hurt as bad as I did? I wonder how can he continue if he does? As I observe his progress from the shelter of the stately trees on the side of the road, a car pulls up and stops in front of him. The driver slides out of the car with a long sleeve shirt in one hand and a pair of running tights in the other. As the runner approaches the car he stops. His head drops and he places his hands on his knees. The driver moves toward him and asks, “Do you want this shirt or these tights?” Still bent over with the effort of standing, the runner responds, “My hands are cold. I want my gloves.” The driver places a hand on the runners shoulder and exclaims, “You’re freezing! You better put this stuff on.” Slowly standing upright the runner responds, “My hands are cold. Give me my gloves.” “Are you O.K.?” the driver asks. “Give me the gloves. I’m fine.” replies the runner. Of course he’s O.K. I think to myself. I’ve been watching him. Give him the gloves... he’ll be fine. The driver retrieved the gloves from the car and handed them to the runner. I thought I noticed a faint smile cross his tired, drawn face as he pulled on the gloves and shuffled off down the road. You know, I’m not really sure how he did it, but the man I observed over the last long miles of the race finished. I know he finished because the finisher medal hangs on my wall.
