PRESIDENT'S COLUMN From the President's desk ... The Annual GRTC Banquet was a bugc success -
By Bob Dyjak
we had 108 attendees! Dandrea's
Partyhousc provided an excellent buffet. Many of the Rochester Runner of Year Series age group \\'inncrs were in attendance to
receive their certificates. Renee Rombaut and Marc Gage wcre recognized as the winners in the series inaugural year. They even
had the opportunity. thanks to Phil Mann and RNews. to appc.1f on an hour long program the following night to further highlight
their accomplishments as well promoting running in general. Renee was also inducted into our Hall of Fame along with Tim
McMullen. Mike Rcif provided a computer presentation of each of their careers to further underscore their accomplishments. Then
Greg Brooks gave us a very thought provoking talk to wrap things up. It was quite an evening.
.
Mark your calendars for May 21st, the date of the Lilac Festival 10K this year. GRTC and GYH will be working
together to insure the race comes off without a hitch. We are hoping to have a name runner in attendance this year one with some Rochester ties. We will be looking for volunteers, so if you ' re interested, please leave your name and

this premier event.
Since this is my last column as President, I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Board for their support during my
tenwe. As you know, if you ' ve ever done any volunteer work, it takes a team ofpcople to make things happen. I'm pleased to say
it's been my pleasure to work with a nwnber of dedicated folks who have made my stay in office a very rewarding onc. I would ask
that you give Karen Suitor the same support I received.

More Than One Is Better
When it comes to running shoes, one pair just doesn 't go the distance for the avid runner.
One of the keys to a good, safe training routine is to have more than one pair of shoes. Why?
Having at least two allows you to alternate, which can prolong the life of both pair. It also helps
you to incorporate a little variety into your routine and for your feet.
Having more than one pair of running shoes allows you to alternate from day to day.
They could be the same shoe or they could be different. The fact is that by alternating between
shoes you can increase the mileage per shoe and therefore decrease your trips to the store.
Giving your shoes a day or two off allows them to dry out and "bounce back" from the pounding
which will help preserve the materials of the shoe. If you prefer the same shoe, you don't necessarily have to buy two at a time, just maintain a steady rotation. If your routine changes from
day to day then you may need different shoes.
Every runner has a favorite trainer which they try to stick with as long as possible. In
order to train more efficiently some alternate their trainers with a light weight trainer used for
faster pace runs. The lighter weight trainer makes your feet feel lighter, compared to the heavy
trainer. This weight difference can help you pick up the pace every now and then, and add some
variety into your routine. For more diversity there are trail shoes, road racers, indoor fiats, and
outdoor spikes.
As most runners know, a key ingredient to pain free feet and knees is your running shoe.
Whether you like to keep things the same or vary them a little, it is important not only to have
the proper shoe for you, but also have the number of shoes necessary to be a more prepared and
satisfied runner.
More is Better!

GRTC HALL OF FAME INDUCTEE: Tim McMullen
Tim McMullen 's running resume actually begins in 1968 with Tim's big brother, Charlie.
They both played on their high school soccer and baseball teams, but that year Charlie also
started running track. That first track season was all Charlie needed to be hooked, and immediately that following summer, Charlie dragged Tim along to a few GRTC summer track meets as
hi s 2-person relay partner. Much to his surprise, Tim found out that he, too, could really run!
When autumn rolled around again, Tim tried out for the school cross-country team and ended up
finishing 10th in the state in only his sophomore year. For the next two years, Tim ran crosscountry in the fall, played for the baseball team in the spring (he wasn't quite ready to give that
up yet...), and looked forward to running track in the summer with the GRTC. Some of his most
memorable races came in his senior year, including winning the state championship in the mile
run with a time of 4: 19. After high school Tim headed out to Allegheny Community College for
two years. While there he won the national title in the mile twice and set the national indoor
record. From there he went to the University of Missouri where he achieved "All Big 8" four
tim es (4:05 mile) and won the Cross Country individual title. He also led his team to the Cross
Country team title in 1974 (and Missouri hasn't won it since).
Tim continued to run for GRTC during the summers, assembling many great memories of
racing against some of the best runners in the country. Tim actually retired from running for a
few years during the mid-80 's, but the running shoes came back out of the closet when he
reached that 40 th birthday milestone, and as a masters runner he has been a force to reckon with!
His best performances as a master have been a 4:12 road mile (Tulsa, OK), a 15:09 5K
(Hamilton, Ont.), and a 30:09 10K in Elkhart, IN. Tim has had a charmed career, running in
races against many brilliant competitors. He has run all over the country in almost every major
race. Tim told us he is convinced that running with the club allowed him to have successful
track seasons, and ifit wasn't for the club being here to help him and other young runners develop their skills, who knows where things would have turned out.
Footnote from big brother Charlie: "Don't be fooled by Tim's charming and quiet nature. He
has looked into the eyes of Dave Wottle, Frank Shorter, and the legendary Steve Prefontaine with
confidence. My brother is one of the fiercest competitors I have ever lined up with. He may also
be the nicest person ever to lace up a pair of running shoes. If you count the number of awards
Tim has, he has 10 times that number of friends . It's that number that tells you what a great
person Tim is."

GRTC HALL OF FAME INDUCTEE: Renee Rombaut
Renee Rombaut kicked off her stellar running career at age IS while a student at Rochester 's
Cardinal Mooney High School. By the time she graduated three years later, she had set school
records in both the 1500m and 3000m, records that have never and will never be broken (as
Cardinal Mooney closed soon thereafter)! She was also named Cardinal Mooney Female Athlete
of the Year as well as City Catholic League MVP during her senior year. Renee chose to stay in
the area when she attended college, and Ithaca College welcomed her with open arms! During
each of her four years at Ithaca she competed at the varsity level in cross country, indoor track
and outdoor track, and all four years she won the New York State Championship and the Eastern
State Championship in the 10,000m. As icing on the cake, in the fall of Renee's senior year, she
led the Ithaca College women's cross country team to a third place finish in the NCAA National
Championships.
After graduating from college in 1990, the first thing Renee did after moving back to Rochester was to jump back into running - and winning - local races. She has won gold medals at the
Empire State Games three times; she has won the Rochester area Corporate Challenge six times;
and she holds the Open Women's Course Records for the Race With Grace 10K, Corn Hill 5K,
Red Baron Half-Marathon, and the Jungle Jog 5K. On the distance running side, she has completed seven marathons, and in one of those (the Jacksonville Marathon) she was the first female
runner to cross the finish line! Renee 's running career has only been interrupted by injury twice.
In 1993 she was sidelined for several months with a stress fracture to the hip, but she appeared to
make a complete recovery. In 1995, however, the same hip developed another, more serious
stress fracture to the point where the bone was actually chipped; the prognosis was that she
would be lucky to ever run again. After a frustrating layoff of over a year, Renee set out on that
long, slow comeback trail, determined to regain her form and speed without re-injuring herself
Now, back in tip-top form, the memories of that long layoff and the sometimes painful recovery
make her view every race she runs as a blessing and a joy. (Maybe that's why she tells every
race director, " Your race is my very favorite race! ")
Somewhere in between her running and her job as Compliance Officer for Sage Rutty &
Company, Renee finds time to give back to the community too, efforts for which earned the
Outstanding Citizen Award in the town of Greece in 1990. She has also worked with the LPGA
on the Rochester International for 10 years straight. More recently, Renee 's energies have been
focused on lobbying for funding and approval of a runninglbike path along the Ontario State
Parkway. At this time, it appears her efforts have had an impact and the path will be built. In
addition, Renee is one of the nicest people you' ll ever meet; she has a smile and a "Hello! " for
anyone and everyone, whether she has ever met you or not. (That trait must be inherited from
her mother, Cathy Rombaut, who not only comes to every race that Renee runs, Cathy has also
"adopted" most of the running community as her own extended family!) We are privileged to
have Renee as a member of our Rochester running family.

That's a lot of Freaking Miles !!
by Ann Stoutenburg
On January 9, 2000 I joined 10,000 other runners/walkers for the Disney World Marathon (another 5,000 were
doing the 112 marathon). As the wife of a marathon runner (my husband, Greg, has done 14) I was used to being a
spectator. For the first time, I was the one running.
Exactly one year ago two friends and I had signed up with the Leukemia Society's Team in Training. Prior to thai
none of us had ever run more than 5 miles. My friend 's 6-year-old son, Tony, was battling leukemia and we decided
we would do this for him- he would be our " honored patient." And since we figured we might as well have fun
while we were running 26.2 miles, we picked Disney. We called ourselves "Tony's Team," and we started our
fundraising. We tried to raise most of the money through events rather than asking family and friends for donations,
and it was amazing how people were willing to help us. We had many items donated to us for raftles, Wendy's did a
fund-raiser for us and gave us coupon books to sell, a local boy scout troop did a bottle & can drive for us (and raise,
$365). The list went on and on. Many people sent us donations unsolicited. Ginny Ryan from Channel 13 did a
story on us in May, and the manager of Rochester Fitness Center in Chili even gave the three of us one-year memberships to train for the marathon. We raised a combined total of $9,659. That took care of half the battle, then came
the training.
Our "official training" didn ' t start until September-18 weeks before the marathon. Our TNT coaches were John
Hultz and Jerry Steffen, and we couldn't have asked for two nicer, more dedicated coaches than them. We met at
7:30 every Saturday morning in Mendon Ponds. John and Jerry did everything but run for us-they planned the
routes, put water and Gatorade out on the course, and even brought power bars and gels. It was the closest you
could come to being pampered while running! By the time of our TNT "Send Off Party" on 114 we all felt ready and
very excited about the marathon. Our longest run had been 20 miles, which surprisingly hadn't seemed too bad. I
naively thought "how hard could another 6.2 be?"
Once we got to Orlando on Friday, 117, the excitement turned to nervousness. I went from feeling "this is great,
the marathon is almost here" to " oh my god, the marathon is almost here!" I didn't sleep much on Friday and felt
nervous most of Saturday. The TNT Pasta Party was Saturday night at the Contemporary Hotel. Approximately
3000 TNT members from across the country were there-we raised a total of$5.5 million for the Leukemia Society!
One of the speakers was Lucy Duffy, who started the TNT program in 1986. She decided to run the New York City
Marathon in honor of her husband Alan who was battling leukemia and passed out pledge forms to solicit donations.
She raised a total of $30,000 for the Leukemia Society. Sadly, her husband died one month after she ran the marathon. When she finished speaking the crowd gave her a standing ovation and I don' t think there was a dry eye in the
house. It was an incredible feeling to see the packed ballroom and realize that all of these people had come to run
the marathon for the same cause.
I think I managed to sleep for 1 112 hours that night. The alarm went off at 3 a.m. and I got ready to catch the 4
a.m. bus to the start line. I knew we were in trouble when I went outside at 4 a.m. and it was already warm. Race
day temperatures wound up being in the mid-70's, which is about 20 degrees higher than I would have liked. I lined
up at the start with Jerry Steffen and another TNT member, Kim Smith (who, incredibly, had never run until June of
1999 when she decided to do the marathon). Jerry and I got to be good Iiiends during the training, and I warned
him that I was planning on being "velcro woman" and sticking close to him. I was so nervous that when the fireworks went off to start the race I literally thought I was going to faint . I told Jerry, who did what any good coach
would do-he told me "you ' re too heavy to carry, you have to run! " So I did.
I had painted my name on my singlet, which was probably one of the best things I could have done. About a mile
into the race we came upon the first group of spectators, and someone yelled out "come on Ann, you can do it!"
That really helped ! I thought "wow, I have a fanl " I felt much better after that and we settled into a comfortable
pace. I was totally amazed at the number of people who yelled out my name during the marathon. Jerry kept asking
me how many people I knew in Orlando. I had a lot of experience as a marathon spectator, and I always cheered for
the runners as they went by. Now I know just how much that cheering helps and how one cheer from someone you
-19-
don't even know can really keep you going. For the first 20 miles every time someone called out my name I would
yell " thank you!" From 20-24 miles I was too tired to speak and would just flash a "thumbs up." Around mile 25
someone yelled to me "come on Ann, you're almost there" and I blurted out "Ann's tired l " I don't know what came
over me.
It was really touching to see all of the purple TNT singlets on the course and to read what people had written on
their shirts-for Dad, for Chris, for Uncle Doug, for Zach, for Tony, and on Jerry's shirt, a picture of his 6-year-old
daughter Rebecca, who also has leukemia. My TNT bracelet had Tony's and Rebecca's name on it, and when I
needed a boost I would think of them. I saw someone at the race expo wearing a shirt that said "If you think running
a marathon is tough, try chemotherapy" and that thought really stayed with me too.
I carried a single-use camera with me and managed to take 26 pictures during the marathon. I would yell "photo
op" and Jerry would patiently wait while I took a picture or take the picture for me while I posed with the Disney
characters. Running through the parks was great, but many parts of the course were not very spectator-friendly. We
spent a lot of time running on private Disney roads where there were no spectators and no music. At one point a
group of us started singing just to break up the monotony. (Not a pretty sound, but it was fun.) The course finished
up in Epcot, with us running around the countries to the finish line. When I saw the 26 mile marker and didn 't see the
finish line my heart sank. I almost cried as I said "Jerry, there's no finish line! Why isn't there a finish line??" He
reminded me about the .2 part of the marathon, which [ think really was the toughest part. Jerry and [ crossed the
finish line hand-in-hand.
I still can't believe I actually ran a marathon. I can't believe my husband runs them for fun! After I returned to
work a co-worker asked me what it was like, and all I could say was "that's a lot of freaking miles!" It was for a
good cause, and I met some great people. Maybe someday ...
The 2000 Walt Disney World Millennium Marathon
By Doug )on."s_
The Walt Disney World Marathon on 1/9/00 promoted itself as one of the first marathons of the new millennium.
As such, it attracted a strong field of 18,000 marathon and half-marathon participants. A very early start though was
necessary to be ready for the 6:00 am gun, which allowed runners to be done ahead of the Florida heat and the arrival
of most of the " paying" visitors to the Disney theme parks. The weather and enthusiasm of the participants however
both paid back those willing to put in the effort.
Waking up at 3 :00 am for the last loading of carbohydrates, runners were shuttled from the hotels to the start line
from 3:30 to 4:30 am, arriving by 5:00. Runners were greeted by the requisite endless line ofPortaJohns and a
nevertheless enthusiastic crowd. After " mustering out" in the parlOng lot, the "long march" (112 mile?) of runners to
the starting corrals brought up images of a mass political migration. Following directions diligently in the darkness,
the runners arrived at the starring area and lined up expectantly for the race in the bright glare of industrial strength
floodlights . With Disney music blaring from mammoth speakers, the throngs of faithful lined up thousands deep, all
facing in unison the enormous starting gate complex and waiting in the bright unearthly light for some kind of signal
(close encounters of the third IOnd?).
At 6:00 am sharp, a burst of fireworks from the columns of the starting gates lit up the sky and the race was on.
For the first 3 miles the highway was densely crowded with runners moving cautiously through the dense fog that
blanketed the area. There appeared to be no evidence of Disney's presence. Then at 3 miles, looming out of the mist,
emerged "spaceship earth", the EPCOT sphere. Cheering erupted from the Disney staff and families of runners lining
the roads and the race again came out into the light. We passed through the EPCOT theme park to music, cheers and
the flashing lights of the attractions. Shortly after this needed encouragement however, we found ourselves back out
on the dim foggy highway with few spectators and little encouragement but for the cheers of those compatriot
runners ahead of us as they passed overhead on a cloverleaf bridge in the dim light at 6 miles. The next 4 miles of
more serious running brought the gradual dawn and lifting of the fog as the runners "dug in" and pressed on in
earnest. At 10 miles with the sun brealOng through, we hit the real high point of the marathon, running through the
Magic Kingdom. For the first time, with the day dawning, we encountered "real" spectators cheering us on. A true
-20-
encouragement, the supporters there also included familiar notables such as Pocahontas, the Seven Dwarfs and the
Wicked Witch. Running through Cinderella's castle and coming out facing the rising sun evoked the true image of this
race. When remembering the Disney Marathon [ think this will be the memory of most.
Too quickly though, we left the Magic Kingdom behind. We also left behind the 8,000 half-marathon runners who
ended at 13.1 miles. The next 4 miles, with heat and humidity building, started us to thinking less about Mickey
Mouse and more about "this is a real race." A long straight rural road lined with flags led us to the Disney Animal
Kingdom. Passing briefly along the outskirts of the park we received some support from staff and early visitors, but
saw few animals (were those really vultures circling overhead?). Back out quickly again onto a four lane highway, the
next 6 miles were a quiet time of minimal spectators, moderate reflection, and working to maintain pace. Conversations overheard on the overpasses seemed to have now turned to the topic of "[ thought they said this was flat" .
After 6 miles of rural highway running and no Mickey in sight (perhaps he and Minnie had slept in) cresting an
overpass at 20 miles brought Disney civilization (an oxymoron?) back into view with the EPCOT sphere on the
horizon ahead. Knuckling down for the last 10K, the runners passed through MGM studios under the watchful eyes
of the Toy Story soldiers who shouted their orders and encouragement. Other stars abounded on Hollywood Boulevard and park visitors lined the walkways. Hugging the canal path along the waterway toward the Swan and Dolphin
hotel complex, we emerged again at the Disney Boardwalk area at 24 miles. Encouraged by the now present (and
finally awake) cheering spectators we passed back into the EPCOT circle of nations at 25 miles. The picturesque
setting under a now clear blue sky spumed us all on. Coming back through EPCOT and under "spaceship earth" at 26
miles, a quick right tum brought us in sight of the finish line and throngs of cheering spectators waiting in the now 70
degree heat. A brisk and brief sprint to the finish brought us back again to ou r starting point. Except for the
unmistakable baggage tents we had been in at 5:00am, it seemed hard to believe the now bustling and sunlit parking
lot with food, bands, DJ's and supportive family and friends was the same place where we had assemb led in the
darkness a few short hours ago. After more PowerAde and bananas (food of the gods?) we sat on the ground resting
our legs and reveling in our successes (or failures). We discussed our pains, reviewed and critiqued the course, and
enjoyed once more the feeling of accomplishment that belongs to the marathon runner. And after a short time the
conversation once again turned to the inevitable question that defines the runner 's view oflife ...... ... " what race are
you going to run next?"

When You Have Been Told It Can't be Done
By Jim Press
After arriving at the Rochester airport from Arizona, along one ofthe corridor wall s was a
commercial sign with the following statement, "When you have been told it can 't be done". It
was something that was frequently in my thoughts the last four to five months.
Being involved in an accident last July, brought an abrupt halt to any kind of running. An
MRl confirmed that my left knee needed to be surgically repaired (Both the MCL and ACL were
tom). The surgical procedure was performed near the tail end of August.
Those long peaceful, meditative type runs were sorely missed and certainly presented mw
with some new challenges. Following this surgery, my first thoughts were "How soon can I be
back running again - - running marathons, etc ... .?" When these thoughts were presented to the
MD and other orthopedic people, their response was not very encouraging. In fact , they were
significantly opposed to running and stated that "your knee will never be the same again" . " You
are almost 62 years old and it would be best if you quit running completely". Even some of my
own relatives urged me to hang-up my running shoes. Can you imagine what they would tell Mr.
Marathon, Nonn Frankl !II
Most fortunately, via the good old grape vine, information about a physio-therapist that
worked with runners, including marathoners, was passed on to me. This proved to be a huge
plus factor in providing a re-hab program to accomplish my desired goals. Tanya Beiswenger
(physio-therapist) setup the necessary 2.5 hour per day regime. These were long and difficult
days because of the usual 80-hour regular workweek added onto the re-hab sessions. The training continued well, except for one short setback, and registration was made for the Tucson
marathon in December.
This race came to be a momentous and emotional experience for me. The usual pre-race
jitters and feelings of trepidation were activated. The memories of months of hard work, encouragement from Tanya (P. T. ) and my fellow runners flooded my thoughts and helped me exceed
my expectations. Not only was I able to finish the marathon, but completed it eight minutes
under the qualification time for Boston 2000. True, a 3:32 is not what could be considered earthshaking world class accomplishments, but this geezer was thorougWy pl eased and happy with the
results. All of this evolved into a grand Christmas present.
Recalling that airport sign, "When you have been told it can't be done", Do not believe it,
because it can be done. Many thanks to all who supported me and made it all possible. I am
deeply grateful.

TURF TOE
Turf toe seems to be getting a lot of attention recently. There have been several professional athleles
who have been sidelined by this problem yet the exact definition can be somewhat cloudy. So what is turf toe?
Turf toe usually refers to a sprain of the large toe joint or any other metatarsal phalangeal joint. The
sprain is caused by the toe jamming In the sneaker and hyperex1ending beyond the nonnal 60 degrees of
dorsiflexion. If the toe ex1ends beyond its normal range of motion the ligament below the joint will tear. In a
more serious injury the jOint capsule may in fact tear.
The risk factors that preclude this injury include lightweight and flexible shoes on artificial turf and
sports such as fool ball, basketball and raquetsports.
The symptoms of turf toe include pain and decreased range of motion of the toe joint. The clinical signs
consist of swelling, loss of motion, black and blue marks and pain at the joint itself. Radiographs may show a
small fracture of the joint margin.
So how were all those professional athletes treated for this seemingly mild foot injury? Treatment
consists of immobilization and rest. RICE (rest, ice, compression and elevation) and taping to prevent
extension of the toe joint are common measures. Sometimes rest for many days or even weeks may be
necessary for complete recovery and crutches may be recommended .

THE ATHLETE'S KITCHEN
CHOCOLATE: A love affair
"] love chocolate, but I feel so guilty when I sneak a candy bar... "
"I get wicked cravings for chocolate .. I've even gone to the stofe at 1:00 am to buy Hershey's Kisses."
"I can tell I' m premenstrual by my cravings for chocolate ... I "
If you are like most active people, chocolate is among you r favorite foods . Chocolate is uni versally loved in all
developed countries and has been touted as "a gift of the gods." About 50% of all food cravings are for cbocolate, far
more than cravings for "something sweet" (16%), salty foods (12%), baked goods (II %), and fruit (4%). Some
people go so far as saying they are addicted to chocolate.
The question arises: Why is chocolate such a powerful food? And what makes it the most commonly craved food?
(About 40% of women and 15% of men repo rt chocolate cravings.) Scientists have extensively studied chocolate,
trying to determine the source of its power beyond having a pleasurabl e taste, smell, and texture.
Although we do not know the exact reasons why chocolate is so popular, we do know chocolate alters brain
chemistry and creates a pleasant mood. Chocolate contains substances si milar to drugs that may account for
chocolate's stimulant, anti-depressant, and mood altering effects. But the mystery remains, why does just chocolate,
and no other food, contain this exquisit combination of substances that induces a desire to eat it for a sense of wellbeing?
If chocolate is on your favorite food list, the following article may answer some questions you have about chocolate and its role in both your daily diet and sports diet.
How bad is choco late for my health?
The good news is, chocolate is not as bad for your health as you may think. That is, chocolate actually contains
some health-protective anti-oxidants, as well as a type offat that is neutral in terms of heart disease. Certainly,
chocolate should be eaten in moderation (in addition to a variety of wholesome foods) and for pleasure-not for
nutritional value. That is, eating chocolate after lunch is nutritionally acceptable, but eating two chocolate bars for
lunch is not l
Given the guideline that 10% of daily calories can appropriately come from sugar, and 25% from fat, most active
people can budget in 200 to 300 calories of chocolate per day within the context of a healthful diet. That's one big
candy bar, guilt-free l A 1.55 oz. Hershey's Milk Chocolate Bar, for example, is 230 calories- 90 calories from sugar,
II 5 from fat.
How much caffeine is in chocolate?
Although chocolate has the reputation for being loaded with caffeine, it actually contains very little-about the
amount in one cup of decaffeinated coifee. The energy burst provided by chocolate more likely comes from its sugar
content than from caffeine. In comparison to a small, 8-ounce cup of brewed coffee ,with about 100 milligrams of
caffeine (depending on how it's brewed), or one ounce of espresso with about 40 milligrams ofcaifeine, the typical
1.55 ounce milk chocolate candy bar offers only 10 milligrams of caffeine. The same amount of semi-sweet dark
chocolate offers about 30 miUigrams, and a one-ounce square ofbaker 's chocolate, 25 mi lligrams. (Note: Dark
chocolate contains more cocoa, hence more caffeine.) A glass of chocolate milk has only 5 milligrams, an insignificant
amount, even for kids.
Why do I feel addicted to chocolate?
So-calleq "chocolate addictions" are common among dieters and athletes who fail to consume adequate calories.
When your body is too hungry and screams for quick energy, you can easily succomb to chocolate chip cookies,
brownies, or candy bars. Eating chocolate is the symptom of this nutritional concem ~ getting too hungry is the real
problem. Even a self-proclaimed chocoholic cyclist exclaimed "] have not eaten chocolate at all this week-nor have]
missed even it- now that r am having 600 calories ofcereallmilklbanana &j uice for breakfast (instead of just a
-24-
banana) and 600 calories ofPB&J sandwich, yogurt and apple for lunch (instead of just a yogurt). I've even lost
weight, much to my amazement, on 1,800 calories ... and I feel better when I eat less sugar."
How fattening is chocolate?
Chocolate is only fattening if you eat too much of it and blow your calorie budget on a who le bag ofM&Ms or
batch of brownies. This can easily happen when you get too hungry or stressed.
Why do [ have monthly premenstrual chocolate cravings?
About one-third of women will agree that nothing does the job of resolving premenstrual sweet cravings as well as
some delicious, melt-in-your-mouth chocolate. The cyclical nature of women's chocolate cravings supports the
involvement of hormonal fluctuations. If you are a chocolate craver, [ recommend you eat chocolate for breakfast, get
rid of the craving, and then feel content all day. Otherwise, you'll try to stay away from chocolate, only to succomb to
eating "the whole thing" that evening. If you're destined to eat chocolate eventually, why "hold of!" until evening
when you want it now?
Willi "crash" if! eat chocolate before I exercise?
Despite popular belief, eating a candy bar five minutes before exercise can actually enhance performance, not
hinder it While a banana, yogurt, or energy bar wou ld be nutritionally preferable, any fuel in your tank is better than
no fuel-particularly if you are underfed and overhungry. The better way to improve performance is to eat more
breakfast and lunch, plus a 200 to 300 calorie snack within the hour before you exercise. This fueling pattern can
enhance exercise performance by 20% in the last 10 minutes of a one-hour exercise bout In comparison, you may
improve only 10% by eating just a candy bar vs eating nothing and exercising on empty.

THE ATHLETE'S KITCHEN
"My body must have a metabolic defect-I'm always hungry."
"I don 't know if I need to see a nutritionist or a psychologist I often devour a box of crackers in the blink of an eye. I
feel like I'm binge-eating ... and that scares me."
"I try not to keep cookies in the house, because when they're there, I eat them-too many of them"
For many active people, food is a feared enemy. Runners, skaters, and rowers alike try to stay away from it They
endure hunger all day. When they do succomb to food, their eating tends to be a fast and furious frenzy that's
seemingly out-of-control. Some of these clients have a full-blown eating disorder, but the majority are simply hungry.
Too hungry.
Being hungry all the time is not a personality quirk. Rather, hunger is the body's request for fuel. Hunger is a very
powerful physiological force that creates a strong desire to eat Unfortuantely, in our thin-is-in society, many active
people fail to honor this simple request because they fear food as being fattening . The thought of eating elicits a sense
of panic: "Oh no, if! eat, I'll get rat"
Not the case. Most athletes eat without getting fat! Food, after all, is fuel. But problems do arise when food is
denied and deprived (as happens with a strict reducing diet), when hunger becomes the norm. The result is an
abnormal physiological state that is known as starvation.
Starvation has been inflicted upon many people, including third world natives suffering from famines, povertystricken people at the end of the month when no food money is left, and victims of the World War II concentration
camps. Starvation is also common among athletes who are intent on losing weight These include wrestlers, lightweight rowers, jockeys and others who participate in sports with weight limits, as well as the athletes who simply
believe thinner is better and diet themselves to (supposed) perfection.
The question arises: What 's the cost of starvation? What happens to the body and the mind when food is restricted
and body weight is abnormally low? In 1950, Ancel Keys and his colleagues at the University ofMinoesota studied
the physiology of starvation. They carefully monitored 36 young, healthy, psychologically normal men who for 6
-25-
months were allowed to eat only half their normal intake (similar to a strict reducing diet or anorectic eating). For 3
months prior to this semi-starvation diet, the researchers carefully studied each man's behaviors, personality, and
eating patterns. The men were then observed for three to nine months of refeeding.
As their body weight fell to 25% below baseline, the researchers learned that many of the symptoms that might
have been thought to be specific to anorexia or bulimia were actually the result of starvation. The most striking
change was a dramatic increase with food preoccupation. The subjects, similar to people with anorexia, thought about
food all the time. They talked about it, read about it, dreamed about it, and even collected recipes. They dramatically
increased their consumption of coffee and tea, and chewed gum excessively. They became depressed, had severe
mood swings, experienced irritability, anger and anxiety. They became withdrawn, had little sexual interest, and lost
their sense of humor. They had cold hands and feet , felt weak and dizzy, and their hair fell out. Their basal metabolic
rate (the amount of food needed to exist) dropped by 40% as the body adapted to conserve energy. (Do these
changes sound familiar to anyone you know?)
During the study, some of the men were unable to maintain control over food; they would binge eat if the opportunity presented itself During tbe refeeding period, many oftbe men ate continuously-big meals followed by snacking.
Several ate until they were uncomfortably full, became nauseous, and then vomited. These abnormal eating behaviors
lasted for about 5 months; by 8 months, most of them regained their standard eating bebaviors. On average, they
initially regained I(101o more than their original weight, but then gradually lost that excess and returned close to their
baseline weight.
So what can we learn from this starvation study?
I . Preoccupation with food is a sign your body is too hungry. Hunger creates a very strong physiological drive to eat.
2. Binge eating stems from starvation. If you worry about being unable to stop eating once you start, you have likely
gotten too hungry.
3. Weight is more than a matter of will power. That is, if you lose weight, your body will fight to return to a genetically normal level.
4. Dieters who restrict to the point of semi-starvation are likely to regain the weight they lost-plus more. Hence, if
you want to permanently lose weight, you simply need to push yourself away from the dinner table when you are
content but not stuffed, wben you can say to yourself, "I've had enough to eat. I could have more but I'd ratber not
because I'd rather be a little leaner."
You migbt find it helpful to know how many calories you are supposed to eat to maintain or to lose weight. To do
this, simply• Take your weight and multiply it by 10. This gives your resting metabolic rate (RMR, the amount of energy you
need to simply exist, pump blood, breathe, etc.). If you weigh 140 pounds, your RMR is about 1,400 calories- the
amount you' d burn if you were to run for 14 miles l
• Add to your RMR about half that number for activities of daily living. For example, if you weigh 140 Ibs. and are
moderately active (without your purposeful exercise) you need about 700 calories to come and go.
• Next, add calories for purposeful exercise. For example, a 140 pound person would need about 1,400 calories
(RMR) + 700 (daily activity) + 300 (for 30 minutes of aerobic activity) ~ 2,400 calories to maintain weight. To lose
weight, deduct 20%-to about 1,900. This translates into 600 calories for breakfast/snack, 700 for lunch/snack, and
600 for dinner/snack-and that's the reducing diet!
The next time you get into an eating frenzy and wonder if you are borderline bulimic, calculate your day's intake.
You' ll likely see a huge discrepancy between what you have eaten and what your body deserves. Recognize hunger's
power- and stop getting too hungry!
