Spectator Tips for Fall
Marathon Season
A lot of us are training right now to
peak for a fall marathon. For some family members, it’s tough to know how to show support on
race day, especially when an athlete can be irritable and on edge about the approaching race.
Here is my advice on how to be a supportive
spectator.
Before the Race
Make sure that your camera, batteries,
film, or memory cards are ready to go for race
morning. You would not want to miss taking an
award-winning shot of your athlete during the
big event.
Decide where you are going to cheer
for your athlete. Check out the course maps
ahead of time and make sure that you are aware
of any street closures that could prevent you from
getting to certain locations or that could cause
delays. Decide where you are going to be before
race morning. It can be a great pick-me-up for
your athlete to know you’ll be cheering at mile 10 or 15. Determine when your athlete should reach
each spot along the race course so you know when to be there.
Pack sunglasses, sunscreen, water, snacks, and anything else that you might need during
the race. Even though you’re not running, biking or swimming, that doesn’t mean that you won’t get
hungry or thirsty.
Create any signs, posters, hats, t-shirts, etc. that you want to use to help you cheer for your
athlete.

At many races, spectators bring chalk so they can write good luck messages on the street.
You can write a runner’s name and bib number, along with words like “Good luck!” and “Stay
Strong!” If you do this, remember to buy washable chalk. Don’t use anything permanent.
Cheering is always helpful. Unfortunately, many of the things that spectators yell out to
runners are annoying. Imagine struggling through 20 tough miles of a marathon, only to have people
yell out, “You’re almost finished!” or “It’s just around the corner!” While these uplifting phrases
may seem helpful, trust me. They are not. Instead, try yelling words of encouragement like, “Way
to go!”, “Looking good!”, “Great job!”, or the simple “Woohoo! Yippee!” During long races, some
runners will write their name on their shirt for spectators to yell. Also, you can always try something
creative or funny, like “Look at those hot legs!”
Clapping and whistling are encouraging and uplifting for runners’ sagging spirits. Some
spectators will give runners high fives and others will bring noisemakers. Don’t be upset if runners
and triathletes don’t always respond well to your cheering. During long events, athletes can push
through an extreme range of emotions and mental states. Some athletes will wave, smile, and give
you a high five, while others will ignore you.
Remember to be safe by staying off the course. If you need to cross the street, wait until
the course is completely clear. Also, remember to pay attention to the commands of volunteers.
They are trying to keep the athletes safe.
Participants are encouraged to put on
your best German-, Knight Rider-,
Baywatch- or any Hoffster-inspired costume. There’ll be prizes
for the most creative get-up, so don’t be shy. Not that you would be.
We’re just sayin’.

After the Race
Denver
Celebrating 40 years
Meet at a predetermined location. Make sure that you pick a post-race location before the
event. At events with a lot of participants, the finish areas can be very crowded with thousands of
finishers all searching for their families.
Once you find each other, offer your athlete a big hug, along with a dry shirt or jacket. It
feels good to have something clean and dry to wear after the race.
Don’t forget to do something nice for yourself, too. You have survived the stress of navigating the course and scanning herds of runners. You deserve a treat too!
Happy trails!
Derek
Your $35 per person registration fee will get you a place on the list,
an über-hot tee shirt commemorating the event and a Bier on us.

year, when she shattered the women’s record.
Two-time winner and former record-holder Pam
Reed of Tucson was the second female finisher
in 29:03:09.
Covering 135 miles non-stop from
Death Valley to Mt. Whitney, CA in temperatures up to 130F, it is often considered the most
extreme running race on the planet. The start
line is at Badwater, Death Valley, which marks
the lowest elevation in North America at 280’
below sea level. The race finishes at Mt. Whitney Portal at 8,360’. Unfortunately due to a forest fire less than one mile from the official finish
line, some of the later participants were forced
to stop the race at 131 miles.

Krupicka Wins 50 Mile
Trail Championship
Anton Krupicka successfully defended his title at the 2009 USA 50 Mile Trail
Championship at the White River 50 Mile Run.
A native of Colorado Springs, Krupicka, 25, established a new course record with his winning
time of 6 hours, 32 minutes, and 9 seconds, besting the previous mark by 34 seconds at the July
25 race in Crystal Mountain, Washington. The
previous record of 6:32:43 was set by former
elite marathoner Uli Steidl in 2004. Krupicka
was named USA Track & Field’s Athlete of the
Week after the accomplishment.

“The will to
win means
nothing
without the
will to
prepare.”
Michele Suszek of Westminster won
the women’s inaugural Rock ‘n’ Roll Seattle
Marathon in 2:38:37, a full four minutes faster
than her previous best.
“I wanted to run my own race today
and wanted to break the 2:40 mark,” said Suszek
after the race, which was held on June 27.
More than 20,000 runners crossed
the finish line in the sold-out marathon and half
marathon races. The course highlighted some of
the area’s most scenic locations, including Lake
Washington, awe-inspiring Mt. Rainier and Seattle’s downtown skyline.
Suszek is raising support and pledges
for Wounded Combat Veterans through a charity called Achilles Track Club - Freedom Team.
This charity raises money to help wounded veterans focus on rehabilitation through distance
running events such as the marathon.
Donaldson Wins Badwater
Littleton’s Jamie Donaldson overcame a swollen right knee late in the Badwater
Ultramarathon to win her second consecutive
women’s title in the punishing 135-mile endurance run. She won by a wide margin with a time
of 27 hours, 20 minutes, and 18 seconds. Donaldson was about a half-hour slower than last

Beach Breaks 37-year-old
Decathlon Mark
Using international implements, Curtis Beach broke the boy’s
decathlon national high school record, winning with 7,466 points at the
Great Southwest Track & Field Classic in Albuquerque, N.M. The previous record of 7,359 was set by Craig Brigham in 1972. Using high school
implements, he scored 7,719 points, just short of the record 7,909 points
he set in April in Arcadia, CA. Rather than the customary 10 events, the
Duke University-bound Beach competed in 13 events. He ran the 110-meter hurdles twice and competed in the shot put and discus events two times
each to account for the different standards.

“It was tough from the start. I knew the first lap would be fast
and I had to get out. I hit one of the barriers and banged my knee, that’s
never happened to me before and shook me up a little. It was really fun

was so excited just to make the team, so to make the final has made it that
The 2010, 2011 and 2012 USA Indoor Track & Field Championships will be held in Albuquerque, N.M..
Dates for the Championships will be February 27-28, 2010,
February 26-28, 2011 and February 25-26, 2012. The Albuquerque Convention and Visitors Bureau, along with the New Mexico Sports Authority, the University of New Mexico and USATF New Mexico, is the official
host for the three championship meets.
In addition to competing for a total prize purse of $117,000 each

Weakened Hip Muscles Cause Overuse Running Injuries

As most runners know, aches and pains are a common part of training. However, according to a recent study the real culprit for overuse
running injuries, such as patellofemoral pain syndrome, iliotibial band syndrome, and Achilles tendonitis may have more to do with weakened
hip muscles than how many miles run.
“Various studies have estimated that up to 70 percent of runners sustain an overuse running injury each year with more than 80 percent
of those injuries occurring below the knee.
Based on a literature review, it appears that
foot pronation (how one steps) and inadequate
hip muscle stabilization are the top categories
for injury,” said lead author Reed Ferber, Assistant Professor and Director of the Running
Injury Clinic from the University of Calgary.
“Hip muscle weakness especially appears to
lead to atypical lower extremity mechanics
and increases forces on knees and feet while
running.”
One of the studies analyzed in the review suggested that after 4-6 weeks of strength
training, 22 of 24 runners experienced significant decrease in pain and a 35-51 percent increase in hip abductor strength. “These results
suggest that hip strengthening rehabilitation
programs may be an effective way to lessen
running overuse injuries,” said Ferber. Dr.
Ferber recommends performing hip abductor

strengthening exercises to prevent injury. Individuals should progress up to three sets of 10

Qatar and 2012 IAAF World Indoor Championships in Istanbul, Turkey.
The USA Indoor Championships had been in Boston at the Reggie Lewis Center from 2003-2009 and were last in Albuquerque in 1966
when the meet fell under the guise of the AAU. And in 1968, the U.S.
Olympic Team Trials for the marathon and race-walking events were held
on the streets of Alamosa, located at 7,544 feet above sea level, comparable to the elevation of 1968 Olympic host Mexico City.
Albuquerque’s portable indoor track features a red and white
Mondo surface that is state-of-the-art with six 36” 200-meter lanes on the
60-degree banked oval, eight 42” 60-meter straightaway lanes running the
entire length of the infield which are also the surface for the high jump.
This includes two jumping runways and pits, areas for shot put, weight
throw, pole vault, and high jump events. The track is stored in a warehouse
when not in use.
The Teva U.S. Mountain Running Team will compete in the
25th World Mountain Running Championships in Campodolcino, Italy on
September 6, 2009. This year’s team includes five Colorado athletes: Tim
Parr, 27, of Gunnison; Rickey Gates, 28, of Boulder; Megan Kimmel,
29, of Silverton; Megan Lund, 25, of Basalt; and Brandy Erholtz, 32, of
Bailey.

>> YOUTH RUNNING <<
Dominique and Taylor Gerard
Sibling
Rivalry
Running is well-known as a sometimes-solitary activity. But for
a select group of top-performing prep runners, heading into the
2009 Cross Country season, they have a built-in training partner
and supporter – their sibling. But do these competitive siblings
always boost one another, or do they hammer each other to the
point of drawing blood? The answer might surprise you.
Austin Appel has a tall mountain
to climb if he wants to live up to the legacy
created by his older brother, Evan. Evan,
arguably one of the best prep runners Colorado has ever produced, possesses a handful of state titles, including winning 5A
championships last year, his senior season
at Dakota Ridge, in cross country, 1600
meters, and 3200 meters. The youngest
child in a family often possesses less lead
ership inclination and can tend to be more
laid-back than older siblings. That would
hardly describe Austin, the younger of two
children in the Appel family.
“Evan is a natural (leader), but it’s
now my team to lead,” said Austin, who was
14th at the 2008 state cross country meet as a
sophomore. “Seeing Evan’s success, I’d like to
follow a similar path.” Austin sees this year’s
Eagles team competing once again with the best
in the state. Evan says that Austin should ben-
efit from having seen his older brother lead the
Dakota Ridge team before him. “I’ve tried to
set the goals and be the role model, so I’m a
little jealous that he’ll get to benefit from seeing
that,” Evan said.
Both brothers agree that Austin is perhaps more disciplined in his approach to training. “Austin is very independent and has done a
good job of distinguishing himself,” Evan said.
“He does his own routine involving nutrition
and core exercises.” The brothers say they have
different body types, with Austin being more
slender than his older brother, yet Evan has
found it valuable to adopt his younger brother’s
regimen. They have also benefitted from having
a nearby running partner because they live in a
quiet area outside of Conifer.
“Austin and I love to run,” Evan said.
So do they constantly talk about running, both
while training and at home? “Even when we
run, it’s all about cars,” Evan said. “I think our
teammates get sick of hearing us talk cars.”
Both Appels began running in grade school, so
it wasn’t a matter of one pushing the other. “We
both had success when we were young,” Austin
said. “I won a mile race in third-grade, and that
started it.” They both ran at Summit Ridge Middle School, which feeds into Dakota Ridge, and
saw more success that continues to this day.
“Having Austin along for the ride
has been great,” Evan said. Austin added, “I’d
love to go to Stanford (where Evan will run
next year), or another academically-excellent
school.”
WHEREAS AUSTIN WIILL be without his
sibling this season, the Nederland’s Robinson
sisters have one more year together at the high
school level. In 2008, then-freshman Kelley finished first and then-junior Kat was third to lead
the Panthers to the state 2A cross country title.
In track this spring, they finished in the same
positions in the 1600 meters, while Kat added a
third-place medal in the 800 meters. How much
better can it get?
“All of us want to get first at State
(again) and improve our times,” Kelley said.
“Once you start, you can only go up. We run
for our team and we put the team first.” Kat
sets the bar even higher. She says they want to
get a perfect score – all three scorers (including sophomore Rebecca Hermann) in the top
three. The Panthers have been meeting at Nederland High School all summer and training on
the nearby trails and around the Mud Lake open
space park. The sisters also attended the Colorado State running camp.
Kelley says it was easy to get started
running. “My parents (Sabrina and Ken, who
are also Nederland’s cross country coaches)
have always been running. We just run as a
family. Some families go shopping, we go running.” But running doesn’t necessarily spill
over into all areas of their lives. “Our parents
are our coaches at practice, and our parents at
home.”
Sisters can often get fiercely competitive, and often it doesn’t
sit well if the younger sister starts beating big sis. “We don’t really compete,” Kelley said. “I have support for her (Kat). I have a running partner
and a sister. If she wins, I’m going to be happy for her. If she has a bad
race, and I have a good race, I still feel bad. We’re both pretty tough, and
Kat and I want the best for each other.”
ANOTHER SISTER PAIR in which the younger one has overtaken the
older one in some ways is the tandem of Dominique and Taylor Gerard.
Dominique is a junior at ThunderRidge High School in Highlands Ranch,
and Taylor is an eighth-grader at Ranch View Middle School. Taylor
was 10 when she saw her older sister running and decided to give it a
shot. Dominique began in seventh-grade when she fell in love with cross
country, and now both girls compete nationally in USATF Junior Olympic
events.
In the recent national championships in Greensboro, N.C.,
Dominique won the U.S. intermediate girls championship in the 3000 meter run by a whopping six seconds in 10:09.42, and also clocked a 4:46.15
to capture fifth in the 1500, while Taylor took sixth for youth girls in both
the 3000 with a 10:54.59, and in the 1500 in 4:53.54.
Despite her success, Dominique feels Taylor breathing down
her neck. “Taylor and I are 2½ years apart, so we race in different divisions,” Dominique said. “When it comes to time comparison, my sister is
faster than I was (at the same age) which can be frustrating at times, but I
have to learn to accept it. It’s fun, but during practices and races we both
get very competitive. As the older sibling, in practices, if Taylor tries to
go ahead of me I become very competitive.”
“I think we can push each other in practices,” said younger sister Taylor. “In practice, it is sometimes competitive because when you are
younger, you want to beat your older sibling. Though in practice it can be
fun to have your sibling there cheering you on and doing something we
both love.”
Not surprisingly, the girls have different perspectives on their
practice efforts.
“I honestly feel that Taylor works hard, but I believe that when
it comes to running, whether it’s practice or racing, I’m more disciplined,
hardworking, and focused,” said Dominique. “Taylor not only runs, but
plays soccer as well. Since I have a stronger commitment, and this is the
only sport I truly love, I believe I give every workout and race my all. I
feel that I work very hard in class and so does my sister, but I feel running
gets my best effort.”
Not a chance the younger Gerard is going to yield on that one.
“I think that I work harder because my sister has more homework so I can
focus more in practice,” Taylor said. “Also, my sister has harder classes
than I do.”
But both girls agree that practice and races are two entirely different scenarios. “Even though she’s younger, having her there with me

before the races kind of helps calm me because
I know we’re experiencing the same things. I
love having my sister there and know that we
support each other no matter what the outcome
is,” Dominique said.
“Dominique has been running longer so she can help me at times,” said Taylor.
“At races, she is there to encourage me and that
gives me confidence.”
Like the other sibling pairs, the girls
look forward to being teammates. “Our dream
that we have been talking about lately,” Taylor
said, “is when my sister is a senior and I’m a
freshman, we will be able to run cross country
and track together.”
“I think that as an older sister, I just
want to influence Taylor positively,” Dominique
said, “and running has given me the chance to
inspire her and hopefully make her want to be
more like me.”
Once again, the power of running has
strengthened siblings’ ties. “I think that my sister and I are very close and running has brought
us even closer,” Taylor said. “We can talk to
each other about anything. I think I have an
awesome sister.”
HOW MUCH DIFFERENCE is there if the
siblings are brother and sister? Andrew and
Melissa Roberts of Lyons High School are the
oldest of nine children in the family (with a 10th
Roberts baby due soon).
“I love cheering for him, and it’s really exciting for me when he cheers for me,” said
Melissa, a junior, of her older brother. “It’s been
really good. He helps me set goals,” Melissa
said. Among those goals is to break the 18:00
barrier for 5K and to get the Lyons girls team to
qualify for the State cross country meet.
Melissa and Robert began running at
a very young age when the family moved to a
house close to a park. Their dad, Mark, who is
a teacher and Lyons High School’s head coach,
would wake them up before he left for school so
they could run before breakfast. Running has
become a family affair on the Roberts’ 10-acre
property. Every one of them runs, down even
to 18-month old Elizabeth, who eagerly mimics
her siblings traversing the trails. Since the Robertses have home-schooled all of their kids until
they reached high school, the runs have served
as a sort of P.E. class for them.
Andrew’s high school success provides a good template for the rest of his siblings.
He won the 2007 3A state cross country crown,
after being the runner-up the year before. He
was second this past year in the 3A state cross
country meet, as well as in the 1600 and 3200
in track, all to Buena Vista’s Joseph DeMoor.
Andrew will be running next year at Colorado
State, where he hopes to get used to the longer
collegiate distances and is aiming to break into
the Rams’ top five in cross country.
Obviously, Andrew and Melissa can
support each other more than same-gender siblings during meets because they are in different
races, but can’t train together as easily. “Melissa is pretty focused, but also on school,” said
Andrew, who says that he often concentrated
on his battles with rivals like Appel, Denver
North’s Joseph Manilafasha, and Regis’ Bobby
Nicolls. However, without Andrew in the house
anymore, Melissa is eager to take on the challenge of not only leading the Lyons team, but of
her clan of siblings as well. “I need to step up,”
she said.
Can the younger siblings achieve the
same lofty levels and become the leaders their
older brothers and sisters have been? With the
kind of support they have, it will be intriguing to
see if they achieve their goals this cross country
season.
Bill Stahl has been coaching in Colorado for more than 25 years. He is currently the
head cross country and assistant track coach at
Horizon High School in Thornton. He owns a
youth sports business called i9 Sports. Stahl can
frequently be seen trail running to prepare for
another ultramarathon or having fun running
with the kids on his team.
Tracy Peterson, known by his runners as Coach Tracy, is the head cross country
coach at Colorado Academy and a free agent for
schools in track. Tracy hails from Kansas where
he ran high school and college cross country
and track. Tracy is usually found at practice or
on the trails of Colorado.

of training for you?
Barringer
A lot of hard work! I run a lot of miles,
hovering around 80 miles a week. That week
includes a long run, several track sessions, and
even my easy days are usually an hour or more.
What’s important is that my training is very consistent. I don’t change things much from week
to week.
Olympian
Four-time NCAA Champion
Five-time All-American
Two-time USATF Steeplechase Champion
Three-time Big 12 Champion
What are your upcoming goals?
My first goal is to be a good teammate
and a leader. I’m excited about joining our enthusiastic and talented women’s cross country
team to fight for an NCAA team finish that’s fitting to our level of ability. I also have my eyes
set on the individual prize. I’m very acquainted
with second place and I would like to improve
on that.
These are just a few of the awards and
titles that Jenny Barringer has collected during
her time at the University of Colorado. As one
of the best distance runners in the country and
a growing presence on the world stage, Barringer owns the American and collegiate record
in the 3,000-meter steeplechase at 9:12.50. On
the international scene, Barringer has won two
steeplechase meets. Her times in the indoor 3K
and 5K were the fifth fastest in the world during
the 2009 season and her mile was the fastest of
the year. Barringer became the third fastest US
woman in history in the 1,500 at the Prefontaine
Classic when she shaved over eight seconds
off her PR to record a sub-four minute time at
3:59.90. In June, she won the steeplechase at the
USATF Outdoor Championships for the second
time in three years.
She is returning to CU for one final
fall cross country season where she hopes to
capture the NCAA cross country team title and
individual title. After college, she is considering
turning pro.
Many fans might have been surprised when you decided to compete for one more season this fall
instead of turning professional.
Why did you make that decision?
I could write a book on that decision
but it would mostly be on the responses (from
the media). It wasn’t a difficult decision to make
and not that difficult to stick with. The resources the University can provide me couldn’t be
matched in my mind and I feel I made a solid
commitment to run for the school for four years.
Now, I’m putting in an extra season beyond
those four years. That’s simply because I love
cross country, I want to do well in it, and it’s going to be a joy to race next to the women on my
team. The professional career is out there and
in the mean time I’m having the time of my life
getting there.
“Nothing beats an altitude
run in the mountains. It’s
breath-taking, in more than
one way! We have some famous mountain runs such
as Mags and Gold Hill and
Switzerland trail. They’re
probably my favorites.”
It is a lot of good stuff coming together at the right time. I was able to take a nice long
break after the Olympics but I stayed serious
about eating right, sleeping enough, stretching,
and all of the other little things. That, along with
a good training program, can take a talented
runner very far.
What is a typical week
This Page: Image of Sport
Opposite: Victor Sailer / Photo Run
You have been shattering
record after record in the past
few months. What do you
attribute it to?
What are your plans for after college? Will you stay in Boulder?
I love Boulder, not just for training,
but as a place to live. I have a strong tie to this
town and would love to stay. But, I’m keeping
all of my options open for when I finish school. I
would like to run professionally and we’re moving in that direction for November but I also
have aspirations to go to law school and I enjoy
doing community work. No matter what, I can’t
imagine things will slow down after college.
You have competed in so many
exciting races. What has been
your favorite so far?
Each race has a story. Some of those
stories are a little (or a lot) more dramatic such
as my first national championship as a freshman,
the Pre Classic this year, my infamous shoe-loss
episode at NCAAs my sophomore year, the unexpected 5K PR in Seattle, the American Record
in Belgium by the most narrow of wins. All of
those and I didn’t even mention the Olympics. I
couldn’t possibly have a favorite.
What do you like to do
other than run?
I enjoy investing in people. I like
spending time with friends and doing community work when I can. I also love to read. I lose
myself in books.
Barringer’s Personal Bests
How do you stay injury free?
Outdoor:
800-meters: 2:02.56 (2009)
1,500-meters: 3:59.90 (2009, collegiate and school record)
Steeplechase: 9:12.50 (2009, American, collegiate and school
record)
5,000-meters: 15:05.25 (2009, collegiate and school record)
It’s a little bit of luck and a lot of prevention. I get in the weight-room twice a week
to strengthen weak areas, I treat little pains immediately, and I communicate with my coaches
even when the issue seems little. Especially
training for the steeple it’s vital for me to let
them know if something hurts so we can back
off of the high-impact hurdle work.
Indoor:
Mile: 4:25.91 (2009, Big 12 Meet, stadium, collegiate and
school record)
3,000-meters: 8:42.03 (2009, NCAA Meet, collegiate, stadium
and school record)
5,000-meters: 15:01.70 (2009, stadium, collegiate and school
record)
Do you have a favorite spot
to run in Boulder?
I have some great trails right out my
front door that I’m a little partial to but still,
nothing beats an altitude run in the mountains.
It’s breath-taking, in more than one way! We
have some famous mountain runs such as Mags
and Gold Hill and Switzerland trail. They’re
probably my favorites.

>> NUTRITION ADVANTAGE <<
Your Burning Sports
Nutrition Questions Answered
What should I drink during and after exercise?
How can I gain muscle and lose fat?
What should I take to boost my immune system?
Time and again, athletes
repeatedly ask questions about sugar, protein, supplements, caffeine,
carbs, recovery, and body fat. To address these issues, an international
group of sports nutritionists (Professionals in Nutrition & Exercise Science (PINES); www.sportsoracle.
com) gathered in Seattle in May.
Experts in their fields discussed the
latest research and answered commonly asked questions. Perhaps the
answers will help you resolve confusing nutrition issues.
loss with 1) a small calorie deficit that contributes to slow fat loss.
2) an adequate protein intake (i.e.,
some protein at each meal).
3) frequently eaten meals that offer a
constant fuel supply.
4) strength training to help protect
against muscle loss.
Q. How can I gain muscle
and lose fat?
A. The body cannot build muscle and
lose fat at the same time. Building muscle requires calories. If you are restricting calories
to lose undesired body fat, your body does not
have the fuel it needs to create new muscle tissue. Instead, the body breaks down muscle to
use for fuel.
A dieting athlete can minimize muscle
sume carbs during extended exercise.
Q. What’s best to drink during
and after exercise? How much?
A. Beverages that include a little sodium (i.e., sports drinks) enhance fluid retention. Alternatively, pre-exercise, you can consume sodium-containing foods (salted oatmeal,
pretzels, broth). How much you need to drink
depends on how much sweat you lose. Weigh
yourself pre- and post exercise; dropping one
pound equates to losing 16 ounces of sweat
that needs to be replaced. More simply, you can
monitor your urine and drink enough to urinate
a pale-colored urine frequently throughout the
day. Not urinating for several hours post-exercise is bad: dehydration!
Q. What should I take to boost
my immune system?
Q. Is pre-exercise sugar
harmful to performance?
A. More than 100 studies indicate consuming sugar within the hour
pre-exercise does not hurt performance.
The vast majority of athletes can enjoy
pre-exercise sweets for a quick fix. But
some athletes are, indeed, “sugar sensitive” and experience rebound hypoglycemia. They quickly learn—
1) to avoid sugar 15 to 45 minutes
pre-exercise and instead consume it right before
they exercise (the body will not have time to release the insulin that contributes to the “crash”)
or
2) choose pre-exercise foods that do
not produce a “sugar high” such as oatmeal or
whole grain toast with a little peanut butter.
eat a meal after a hard workout.
Q. What should I eat to
recover after exercise?
A. After a moderate workout, you
need not worry about rapidly refueling because
your muscles are not depleted. But if you have
done exhaustive exercise, you should plan to
replace carbs, water and sodium as soon as tolerable—particularly if you will be exercising
again within 6 hours. Adding a little protein to
the recovery meal or snack helps repair damaged muscle, reduce soreness, and also enhance
glycogen replacement in athletes who neglect to
eat enough carbs:
• For a 150-pound athlete, the recommended carb dose for rapid recovery is ~300calories every 2 hours for 4-6 hours.
• A wise protein target is about 15 to
30 grams protein for a 150-lb athlete, taken right
after (and/or during) exercise.
(More precisely: 0.5 g carb/lb and
0.1-0.2 g protein/lb)
Simple suggestions include 16-ounces of chocolate milk; a handful of pretzels and
a yogurt; a meal such as cereal with milk, Carnation Instant Breakfast, or a shake made with
milk, powdered milk and a big banana or other
fruit.
Timing may be more important than
the actual amount of food consumed. Your best
bet is to time your meals to your training, so you
A. While the “train low, compete
high” method is an interesting concept, research
has yet to prove it will enhance performance.
Theoretically, training “low” stimulates physiological adaptations that spare muscle glycogen
and allow greater endurance. The problems are
1) athletes are unable to train at a high intensity
when their muscles are glycogen depleted and
2) training with glycogen-depleted muscles increases the risk of injury.
Bottom line: Eat carbs daily for wellfueled muscles that allow you to train hard!
Q. What dose of caffeine is best
to enhance performance?
A. Moderate exercise actually boosts
your immune system; moderate exercisers have
no need to take immune-boosting supplements.
Hard, exhaustive exercise, in comparison, contributes to inflammation, oxidative stress, and
immune dysfunction. But if you are healthy,
well fed, and well rested, your immune system
can handle the stress. Supplements will not
boost your immune function above normal levels.
If you undereat and fail to consume
adequate protein or carbs after exercise (as
happens with dieters or athletes who are “too
busy” to eat), immune response drops. The best
supplement to take to counter this response is
adequate food—carb-protein combinations, like
chocolate milk or a meal.
Quercetin (a bioactive compound
found in red apples) is touted to boost the immune system. However, research suggests
quercetin works best in “cocktails,” the way it
naturally comes in foods. That is, a quercetin
supplement, by itself, is less effective than when
quercetin is combined with other bioactive compounds, such as fish oil and green tea extract.
Q. Should I train on a high fat
diet to enhance fat-burning?
Q. Should I train with low glycogen stores, and then compete
when carbo-loaded?
A. By burning more fat, athletes are
able to burn fewer carbs and thereby spare their
limited glycogen stores. Supposedly, this should
enhance endurance, given that glycogen depletion is associated with fatigue. Yet, the practice
has yet to translate into improved performance.
The best way to enhance endurance is to con-
A. Although responses to caffeine
vary greatly from person to person, a suggested dose equates to a 12-oz. mug of coffee one
hour pre-exercise. (More precisely, consume
1.5 mg caffeine per pound of body weight (3
mg/kg)—or about 225 mg for a 150-lb athlete.
Higher doses of caffeine offer no performance
advantages and can create the disadvantage of
sleep problems that end up hurting performance.
Enough is enough; more caffeine is not better!
Q. Do I need to worry about
contamination in commercial
sports supplements like protein
powders?
A. Yes! A survey of 634 nutrition
supplements indicates about 15% included a
banned substance, even though the supplement
came from a factory that did not even manufacture banned substances (i.e., steroids, ephedrine). The contaminants make the products
“work” (read that, “sell better”). The products
most likely to be contaminated with illegal compounds include bodybuilding supplements and
weight loss products. Buyer beware!

Attracts Runners To Victor
The Vail Hill Climb Welcomes New
Faces to the Winners Circle
and dry.
This is an event where runners quickly sort themselves out
– some opting to start out fast and taper off, others sitting back, finding a
gear that works, and pressing up the mountain in a rhythmic sustainable
pace. Within two miles, Jason Delaney and Alex Nichols had separated
themselves from the pack racing side-by-side to gap the field by nearly
30 seconds. Over the course of the climb Delaney, 29, outran Nichols, 24,
to take the win in 49:17. Nichols posted a respectable 50:46, and masters’
runner and former Hill Climb champion Andy Ames rounded out the top
three with a time of 53:20.
On the women’s side, Kelly Couch, 31, kept a steady pace to
win in just over one hour, besting second-place finisher Anita Ortiz, 45,
by two minutes, with Anne Nevin, 36, finishing in third with a time of
1:03:57. Ortiz was happy to have posted a time close to that of her run in
2008 in spite of being in recovery mode following her incredible win at
the Western States 100 Mile. “I planned to take it easy today and was really pleased with my time. I felt good and relaxed,” said the Eagle resident
who, upon finishing headed down the race course to cheer her 16-year-old
daughter Amelia to the finish line. Ortiz didn’t have to wait long, Amelia
finished in 1:12:30 to win the 19 and under age group.
Another mother-daughter team to run were the Canadas who
also live in the Vail Valley. Collins Canada, 28, finished in 1:26:45 while
her mother Charlyn finished in 1:32:54 to win the 60 and over women’s
age division, which was stacked with 10 women competing.
In the men’s 60 and over category there were 16 competing. Often winning his age group, Elliott Henry, 63, when asked if he won today
said, “No, this guy named Katz won. He’s a youngster – he’s just 60.”
In addition to competing for age-group and overall prizes from
La Sportiva, every race finisher received a commemorative T-shirt designed by Bernie Boettcher, an artist from Silt, CO, who finished fifth.
This year’s shirt was a photo montage incorporating images from past Vail
Hill Climb events.
After all competitors had finished and the awards ceremony was
completed, raffle prize drawings were held featuring products from area
merchants and national companies.
Some of the runners ran or hiked back down the mountain following the event, though most chose the easier and faster option downhill
– riding the gondola. When they returned to the Vail Village, they could
enjoy the Farmer’s Market, billed as the largest in Colorado.

raindrops prior to the 8:00 a.m. start. Many of the participants looked up
to the summit which was shrouded in clouds and took some time to evaluate their apparel choices for the uphill climb. Fortunately by race start
the skies started to clear and the sun came out. Of course the weather in

The La Sportiva Vail Hill Climb celebrated its 33rd
running in 2009. This 7.5 mile uphill grind is a favorite for
locals as well as out-of-towners. In spite of more than 2200
feet of vertical climbing and grades which average seven
percent, flatlanders often give the course a try and feel a
huge sense of accomplishment after they cross the finish line
and marvel at the views from the summit of Vail Mountain.
The start of the nine-mile race in Victor, Colorado.
Sunday, July 19, marked the first running of the Gold Rush 9 Mile Mountain Race in
the historic mining town of Victor, Colorado located seven miles from Cripple Creek. Twentyeight enthusiastic runners toed the line for this
inaugural event.
The race began at 9:30 am to allow
time for runners to arrive from nearby cities.
Temperatures at the start were sunny and in
the 50s, rising only to the mid 70s by race end
thanks to some light cloud cover.
The course starts at 9,693 feet elevation in downtown Victor and tops out at 10,800
at the American Eagles Overlook before finishing back in town. The trail is mostly gravel and
jeep roads, with short sections of single track
connecting the main trails. The race takes advantage of Victor’s impressive area trail system,
tying together sections of the Gold Circle, Vindicator, and Battle Mountain trails. Not only do
these trails provide an excellent running venue,
they are also popular for hiking, snow shoeing,
and cross country skiing.
One of the most interesting aspects of
the race is its unique and historic setting. Victor
and nearby Cripple Creek have a rich and prosperous history of mining, with an estimated 23
million troy ounces of gold having been extracted from this district since 1890. Runners pass
remnants of abandoned, century old mines all
along the course. Competitors also run through
the largest active gold surface mining operation
in Colorado, opened in 1995 and owned by the
Cripple Creek and Victor Gold Mining Company. As the course gains elevation, racers are
treated to views of the mines, the city of Victor
in the valley below, and stunning panoramas of
Pikes Peak to the northeast, the Collegiate Peaks
to the west , and the Sangre de Cristo range to
the southwest.
Because the race does traverse an active mine area, the race director cautioned the
runners at the pre-race briefing to yield to the
haul trucks at one road crossing. These monster
trucks come in a variety of sizes with capacity
to haul 80, 150, or 300 tons of ore. The largest
trucks stand 24 feet tall, rising to 48 feet when
they are dropping their load, and can weigh as
much as one million pounds when fully loaded.
Since it requires 400 feet to stop one of these
big rigs, there would be no sprinting in front
of trucks. Fortunately the haul road traffic was
light and the race was not interrupted.
Course markings along the trail were
excellent with ribbons, signs, and cones always
within sight. Friendly volunteers were posted all
along the course as race marshals to ensure runner safety and to direct at all of the major turns.
The emphasis on course markings and safety
contributed to a 100% finishers’ rate.
The overall winner, Andres Juarez,
finished in a sizzling time of 1:00:56. Female
winner Kelly Simshauser completed this challenging course in an excellent time of 1:21:35.
The male and female winners received unique
trophies featuring locally mined gold – a pendant for the female award, and a gold nugget
mounted in a mining pan for the male award.
Age group winners also received gold mining
pans with a silver coin mounted in the center.
The mountain race was part of the
weekend long Victor Gold Rush Days celebration, so following the race runners were also
able to watch the hometown parade, tour historic buildings, and browse the open air market
and eateries.
The Gold Rush Mountain Race is a
challenging trail run held in a unique and beautiful setting of historic significance, with a friendly and relaxed home town atmosphere. Be sure
to mark this race on your schedule for summer
2010.

2009 Colorado Runner Racing Series
More than 300 Finish Joe Colton
Sponsored by the Avery Brewing Company, Runner’s Roost, and Colorado Runner
Joe Colton’s Off Road Adventure
Rollinsville, CO
July 5, 2009
319 Finishers (49 - 15M, 93 - 10M, 73 - 10K, 104 - 5K) - Timing by:
Boulder Road Runners - Elevation: Start/Finish = 9,000’ - Weather:
Sunny - Course Records: unknown
T
The 9th annual Joe Colton’s Off Road Adventure Run was a wonderful success this year.
After two weeks of solid clouds, cool temps and rain, the sun came out and the blue sky reappeared.
The South Boulder Creek was ripping through the rolling hills off of Tolland Road,in Rollinsville,
Colorado, as the 300 runners were treated to awesome views of The Continental Divide and an
almost windless course. Joe Colton’s Run, a memorial for a young, local boy who died of the flu
nine years ago, is a beautiful high altitude, low altitude gain, dirt road run. It is a fundraiser for many
programs in the mountain communities and has the feeling of a community coming together. With
a combination of three bands, pizza and BBQ, and tons of great raffle prizes, along with the great
feeling that one gets from being up at 9,000’ and breathing the fresh air, a great time was had by
all.

In what many are already calling the distance running performance of
the year, Diana Finkel (photo) sent the ultra distance running world a very clear
message that last year’s victory at the Hardrock Hundred Endurance Run was no
fluke. Not to be outdone, Karl Meltzer showed that he is still one of the top ultra
distance runners in the country. The Hardrock 100 was held July 10-12 in Silverton, CO.
Finkel, the energetic dynamo from South Fork, Colorado, rewrote the
women’s record by over two hours. The Hardrock 100 course features a total elevation gain and descent of almost 66,000 vertical feet at an average elevation of
more than 11,000 feet. Finkel’s time of 27 hours, 18 minutes, and 24 seconds shattered the previous women’s course record set in 2007 by Krissy Moehl.
Leading the men’s division was Hardrock’s first five time winner Karl
Meltzer from Sandy, Utah. Meltzer’s time of 24 hours, 38 minutes, and 2 seconds
was off the course best of 24 hours, 23 minutes set by Kyle Skaggs last year. Nevertheless Meltzer ran the second fastest time in Hardrock history.
In all, 105 runners finished the race this year; a record for the event. Kirk
Apt of Fruita, CO finished his 15th Hardrock this year while 73-year-old John
DeWalt completed his 14th Hardrock.

Soggy Run For San Juan Solstice
although the weather did break late in the afternoon, and many runners had some sun as they
passed through the Slumgullion aid station at
mile 40. Ryan Burch, who was really burning
it up, relinquished his lead to David Phillips and
Erin Hutchinson, and Darcy Africa was closing
the gap on Helen Cospolich.
A soggy town park finish line began
to dry up as runners approached, and David
Phillips crossed the line first, in his very first ultra, followed closely by Hutchinson and Burch
another few minutes back. Helen Cospolich
widened her lead over Africa, and became the
second 2-time winner of the race. Everyone is
always amazed watching new moms like our
top two ladies compete so well in these grueling events. Rhonda Claridge rounded out the
women’s top three. All finishers came in before
the 16 hour cut-off.
Thanks to all the runners who gave
it their best during some of the most adverse
conditions we’ve had. Some commented that it
was fun and challenging, while others called it
“hell,” but all said they’d come back for more.
We hope that all runners will, in the future, heed
the advice to carry all-weather gear on high
mountain runs.

At 4 a.m. on race day, June 20, the
skies were clear and the stars were beautiful. By
the 5 a.m. start, the sky was completely overcast as 177 runners left the starting line. The
weather held for all the runners to make it over
to Williams Creek at mile 15.7, with a lead pack
of male runners including Paul Saladino, Ryan
Burch, Erin Hutchinson, David Phillips, and
previous winner Dan Vega. In the women’s
race, Helen Cospolich had a comfortable lead
over Darcy Africa and the rest of the women’s
field.
These leaders and a few more stayed a
bit ahead of the worst part of the ensuing storm,
through Carson and up to the Divide, while
down below, runners started to get very, very
wet on the climb to Carson, and temperatures
started to plummet. We had a record number of
drops at Carson, as the drenched and shivering
runners looked up at the blowing snow on Coney Peak, and decided to stay warm and dry, and
get a ride back to town. Those who braved the
storm were greeted with blizzard conditions and
low visibility all the way to the Divide aid station at mile 31, where crews had a fire built in
the yurt. Local runner Mandy Caldon dropped
here, along with a few other runners, claiming
she felt “like a popsicle.”
Snow turned to rain and mud for the
final 19 miles, with very slippery conditions,

around Wash Park at the same time as
the leaders of the Denver Marathon,
which was also being run that day.
I had attached my 5K race bib
so I could run right up to the start line
seconds before the gun went off. The
bib was plain white, with no identifying
information on it other than the Runner’s
World logo. Then I got it. The spectators, seemingly unaware of my 10:00per-mile lope, thought I was the lead
woman in the Denver Marathon! What
to do?
I was completely flummoxed.
Should I keep running? Move to the inside path at the park? Stop running entirely? Hey, I had a schedule to keep, and
I had worked out the timing perfectly to
stick to my training calendar and still run
the race. I was still contemplating when
a spectator handed me a Jolly Rancher.
Hhhmmm… leading the marathon has
its benefits, even for an imposter.
I continued my run, trying to
increase my pace in order to keep up the
facade as long as possible. I soaked it
all in. I high-fived several people, gratefully accepted a second piece of candy,
and basked in the glory. So this is what it
feels like! For a few moments I was the
best, the finest, the fastest, an elite. The
leader.
The triumph was short-lived,
however. After making the turn south,
I saw the three speedy runners leaving
the park and heading west on one of
the neighborhood streets. When I continued running south, a race volunteer
chased after me, shouting, “You’re going the wrong way!” I was forced to turn
around, point to my race bib, and confess. I slunk away, continued shuffling
along, and headed into the park’s inner

For a Moment, I Was
a Marathon Leader
In 2002 I was training
for my first half-marathon,
the Lake Tahoe Half-Marathon. I had been warned
about the grueling course
and, by golly, I was going to
be prepared. I had a training plan and was diligently
sticking to it.
One weekend in September, my training
calendar called for an eleven-mile run but, having
a sister with lupus, I wanted to run the Lupus Loop
5K fundraiser at Washington Park, too. I decided
I could accomplish both by showing up as soon as
pre-registration and check-in for the race began,
