Scott Bauhs Likes To Race


Scott is gonna be a busy boy, as he has 11 races scheduled over the next 13 weeks.

I'm not quite sure how Scotty, his coach, and agent all agreed to this, but anything that bucks the trend of saving it all for 1 or 2 races in late summer gets a big thumbs up from me.
Race yourself into shape!

Josh McDougal Documentary....?

 Josh has been MIA since going pro, hampered by injury and loss of coordination in his leg.
I'm not quite sure what the deal is with this "documentary". The video is 4.5 minutes long and ends suddenly as if cut off. There's no mention of there being more.
He looks like an old man running here and pretty far from form for a comeback. 



The Lord gave him talent for a reason; and then took it away. The Lord works in mysterious ways.

Ryan Hall Has More Good Suggestions

He talks in his latest blog entry about chatting up the homeless.
I encourage you to check out our foundation and how we are combating poverty (http://TheStepsFoundation.org), but more than anything I encourage you to not just walk by the next homeless person you walk by.  Take some time to hear their story and encourage them along their journey.  I think you will find you walk away from the experience encouraged yourself and perhaps with a different view of the homeless than you’ve had before.
Obviously not all homeless are bad people. But most of them are. Hold tight to your purse/hide your wallet as you walk by and don't make eye contact.

Shalane Flanagan Commits to NYC Marathon

Shalane VS Deena. Out with the old, in the new.

Olympian Shalane Flanagan to Make Marathon Debut at ING New York City Marathon 2010

Flanagan joins running greats in making marathon debut in New York


New York, June 16, 2010—The ING New York City Marathon will once again showcase a highly anticipated American marathon debut: Shalane Flanagan will join the likes of Deena Kastor (2001), Meb Keflezighi (2002), Marla Runyan (2002), Dathan Ritzenhein (2006), and Kara Goucher (2008) when she runs the 41st edition of the race on Sunday, November 7, 2010.
“It’s another coming-out party on the streets of New York as Shalane adds her name to the impressive list of American debuts here,” said Wittenberg. “This will be no mere ‘toe in the water’ as Shalane jumps into the deep end with the world’s best. I am 100-percent confident that Shalane will hold her head above water and much more. Shalane’s debut at the 10,000 meters says it all. Look for a serious and significant debut effort in NYC.”
Flanagan, 28, is the American record-holder at 3000, 5000, and 10,000 meters. She set the 10,000-meter mark of 30:22.22 when she took the bronze medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, lowering her own record set earlier in 2008. Earlier this year, she won the Houston Half-Marathon in 1:09:41 in her debut at that distance. Flanagan attended the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, where she won national cross country titles in 2002 and 2003, becoming the first Tar Heel to earn the top individual honor in the sport.
“I’ve dreamed of running a marathon since I was a little girl, and on November 7, 2010, I will attempt to fulfill that dream by racing the merciless 26.2 miles in New York City,” said Flanagan. “I’ve chosen to run my first marathon in New York because of the support and encouragement I’ve received from NYRR throughout my career. Riding the lead vehicle in 2009 showed me the gritty overall challenge, and the distinct spirit within each of New York’s neighborhoods. I can’t wait to begin the training and the journey to the streets of NYC!”
Kastor and Goucher set women’s American marathon debut records in New York. Goucher set the current record at 2:25:53 when she finished third two years ago.
Flanagan will join the previously announced Kastor in the women’s field. Defending ING New York City Marathon champion Keflezighi and world marathon record-holder Haile Gebrselassie have been announced for the men’s field.

Cabada Is Now Self Coached - Running Bjorklund Half On Sat.

Half-marathoner has cleared major hurdles

Things were good for American distance runner Fernando Cabada in 2008. While being coached by former marathon world-record holder Steve Jones, he won the USA Men’s Marathon title, in a race from Minneapolis to St. Paul, and earned a spot on the 2009 World Championships team. Things haven’t gone as well since then. By: Kevin Pates, Duluth News Tribune

Things were good for American distance runner Fernando Cabada in 2008. While being coached by former marathon world-record holder Steve Jones, he won the USA Men’s Marathon title, in a race from Minneapolis to St. Paul, and earned a spot on the 2009 World Championships team.
Things haven’t gone as well since then.
Cabada, 28, from Boulder, Colo., didn’t see improvement in his race times, battled injuries and decided in February to coach himself. He comes into Saturday’s 20th Garry Bjorklund Half-Marathon with something to prove.
“Right now I’m on a mission and I’m more motivated than I’ve ever been,” Cabada said last week. “My confidence has grown by leaps and bounds the last few weeks, and if the (Bjorklund) half-marathon leaders take off sprinting from the start, then I’ll take off sprinting.”
He’s been in the thick of things the past two years in Duluth, placing second in 2008 in 1 hour, 5 minutes, 7 seconds, and third last year in 1:05:30. He has a half-marathon best of 1:02:45, from 2006, while the Garry Bjorklund Half-Marathon course record is 1:04:19, set in 2002 by Ryan Meissen of Hudson, Wis.
Two days after the 2009 Garry Bjorklund Half-Marathon, he found he had an Achilles tendon problem and ultimately gave up his position for the World Championships marathon. In December he developed posterior tibial tendonitis in an ankle, which meant more time off. He’s been back training seriously since March.
On June 5, Cabada was fifth in a field of 6,860 in the Dam-to-Dam 20-kilometer road race in Des Moines, Iowa, in 1:02:36 for the 12.4 miles.
“I was heartbroken for months after missing the World Championships, and after that I’ve learned to love my running more and to give 100 percent. I needed a long race like (Dam-to-Dam), because I had lost my racing edge,” Cabada said.
Getting to the elite-runner level in this decade is another story in Cabada’s biography. He was raised by a single mother on welfare in Fresno, Calif., and then left for a better life in Boulder. He lives with two siblings, Corina, 20, and Dominic, 18, while his mother, Magdalena, is nearby in Longmont, Colo. Cabada ran 2:12:27 in the 2006 Fukuoka Marathon in his debut at the distance.
Namesake returns
When a record 6,876 runners line up for the Garry Bjorklund Half-Marathon, they’ll see a familiar face at the starting line. Namesake Garry Bjorklund, a Twig native living in Fort Collins, Colo., will address the runners before the 6:30 a.m. race.
The former U.S. Olympian at 10,000 meters is attending the anniversary race as a fan, not a competitor.
“This half-marathon has become a major event and I love the fact that it’s in Duluth,” Bjorklund said Sunday. “To be associated with a race like this has been a wonderful gift for me. I’m very proud of it.”
When race director Scott Keenan helped start the race he wanted to honor Bjorklund, who legitimized Grandma’s Marathon by running and winning the inaugural event in 1977, and then winning again in 1980 in 2:10:20. The Garry Bjorklund Half-Marathon began in 1991 with 1,600 entrants.
Bjorklund, 59, who ran at Proctor High School and the University of Minnesota, is a private concessions contractor for the city of Fort Collins, where he’s lived the past 27 years.
Joining Cabada among the men’s favorites are Ethiopians Worku Beyi, 23, who has run 1:01:57 and Bado Worku, 21, with a best of 1:03:45, along with 2008 champion (1:04:48) Mathew Chesang, 28, of Kenya. Caroline Rotich, 26, of Kenya leads the women’s field with a best of 1:10:23. She was 10th in Saturday’s New York Mini 10K in 32:43.

I don't really know why runners need coaches anyway. All a coach does is give you someone else to blame.

Brand Loyalty


Do you have brand loyalty?

I noticed recently that my normal race day attire consists of an Asics hat, Saucony singlet, Brooks shorts, Nike socks, and Adidas shoes. I rarely have two items from the same company on at any time.
Oh wait. Nike watch. There ya go. Nike socks and watch. Guess I'm a Nike guy.

Pregnant Women Running


Running while pregnant seems like a horrible idea, so it probably is.
Who needs doctors to tell you if something is safe or not when you have
logic??
It's kind of weird. Do some yoga or something(clean the garage) instead.
And pull your shirt down.

James Carney 2nd At Bellin 10k

That picture is what comes up when you Google image search Bellin 10k. I think it does somehow relate.

John (kipsang) Korir of Kenya won the 34th annual Bellin 10k in Green Bay, WI on Saturday, making him a 4 time winner while avenging his 2nd place finish last year(John (kipsang) Korir is not to be confused with John (Cheruiyot) Korir, also of Kenya. Or is he?).

Last years winner, John Yuda, was unable to make it after last minute visa troubles stranded him in Kenya.
Perhaps he should have tried his Mastercard.?(wocka wocka)
Mr. Yuda's misfortune opened the door for the Boulder's James Carney and his headband to sneak into 2nd place this year.

I would love to tell you how much prize money they won, but I can't find the info anywhere on the Bellin site. So let's just say they all won a million dollars each.

The 10k had 15,053 finishers, and guess what the average finishing time was...
Now add 20 min to that...
1:13:05...
cheese heads....whaddya expect?


Top Finishers:
1. John Korir 29:12
2. James Carney 29:23
3. Mike Morgan 29:56
4. Tyler Sigl 29:56
5. Richard Kandie 30:05

NYRR

The NYRR organization  will go to extreme lengths to recruit the best runners for their races, including meeting Abdi on top of the Great Wall of China, and flying to Ethiopia to to celebrate the opening of Haile's hotel. Pro runners are always singing praise of the NYRR and the way the handle the elites and the races, and the exceptional treatment they receive in NYC from them.

But what does NYRR do for their local runners?
What would they do for a local 2:30 marathoner who runs(&pays) in 10+ NYRR races a year who is trying to get into the NYC marathon after missing the deadline for entry?
They would tell him there's nothing they can do and I'd he'd have to sign up through a charity and raise at least $3500.

Aww they are so sweet.

 Cabada and Fasil finally came out of hiding over the weekend in Iowa of all places. 
 
Here's Cabada's thoughts on the race from athleticore.com:
I enjoyed this race. There were about 20 of us elite runners, about 
15 africans. The prize money went top 7, so i knew there would be a few 
of us. I just didn't know there would be this many fast guys. It was 
raining the whole time, started from the previous night. I figured since
 it was raining the race would take off slow, it didn't. About 6-8 guys 
were at 4:35 first mile. Fasil, Matthew Chensang, another African and I 
were the next group around 4:40ish. Already that was really fast for me.
 I barely did 5x1 mile the other week in 4:40 and I did 4:40ish the 
first mile of a 20k. So I knew it was going to be a rough day. By 2.5-3 
miles I maybe moved up to 10-11th place. Still raining and it was a head
 wind. I am not so sure about all the splits cause they were off. I know
 I was around 30:30 thru 10k and by that point I was finally in 7th. The
 top 2 guys were way up front (one of them was Drug Cheat Alena Reta, 
Ethiopian) as they were around 29:00-29:10 the first 10k, suicide pace 
for someone like me. By 9 miles Fasil and I were in a pack of 4 (3rd, 
4th, 5th, 6th). We started to slow down cause nobody wanted to take the 
lead cause of the course itself and 5:15 miles started to come, which 
allowed people behind us to get a little bit of hope. I was tired 
though, I was hanging on and didn't have the power to lead, plus I 
didn't really care to lead. There was no way I was going to get the top 
two. We were racing for 3rd and I was right there. 400 meters to go I 
wanted to sprint, but couldn't. 3rd-6th was a spread of maybe 10 seconds
 or so. Fasil was 4th 1:02:34 and I was 5th 1:02:36. 6th place (1:02:41)
 was a 2:13 Marathoner and 7th place was an American Jeffery Eggleston 
who was about 30 seconds back (1:03:06)and he is a 2:14 marathoner, so I
 was happy to beat some solid guys. 

Def. a very good day for 
myself. I am pleased! This will get me ready in two weeks for the 
Grandma's Half marathon in Duluth, MN.

Oslo Meet Announcers

The British announcers for the Oslo meet were great.
You don't get this kind of stuff from Larry Rawson:

She's torn the field asunder!

A battle royale for second place!

She shell shocked her compatriots.

Ohhh he's got a fast arm this fella!

He really did get away brilliantly.

To be quite honest i have NO idea who came in third.
 
Lagat on the inside. Ooh that was cheeky!
He's not a particularly attractive runner.
The pace making was absolutely awful.
He's takin' another scalp.
 These guys should do every meet on NBC.

BERNARD LAGAT 12:54:12 AMERICAN RECORD

Solinsky 12:56:66, just outside Ritz's 12:56:27.
I pretty much called it right on.
Pretty much.

Diamond League: Oslo - Tomorrow

The meet begins at 11am EST, but can be watched online at Universal Sports beginning at 2pm EST.

It will be worth watch just for the 5000m where the Bernard Lagat and Chris Solinsky will most likely be challenging Ritz's 12:56 AR. The field is stacked with twelve sub 13 athletes includding Olympic silver medalist Eliud Kipchoge won the Doha 5000m three weeks ago and is the years world leader in the event with his 12:51 there. 


The weather looks to be cooperating for some fast times. Forecast calls for 68degrees and 6mph wind.


So Lagat or Solinsky?

I have a hard time thinking Solinsky can take down Lagat.
Lagat ran 7:32 for 3000m last weekend. A PR at 35y-o. 
His 5000 PR is 12:59 from '06, but set an indoor PR/AR with a 13:11 back in Feb. The man
is still running great and is a proven champion. He stated at the beginning of the year he wanted the the 5000m AR and I think he'll get it.

Solinsky's PR's are 7:36 and 13:12, but obviously ran the incredible, and world leading, 26:59 a month ago. He's run nothing shorter though to give an indication of his speed.
It should be fun to watch.

I'm going with Lagat 12:53 AR to Solinsky's 12:57, but neither man will win the race.

Mary Whittenberg: Mission Accomplished.


All of Mary's courting $$$$ got the job done and the Emperor will forgo the Berlin time trial and be RACING a marathon in NYC this Nov.
This is exciting news, but not surprising as I assumed he would be running it.
Also announced was Arata Fujiwara who I suggested run NYC just yesterday.
I'm good.
Now the only question is how much $$$ is left to bring in some real competition?
Meb has been announced. We can assume dos Santos, Ramaala, and Ritz. Lel would be nice.
Who else?

You can read the press release under the cut.

It's National Running Day

James Carney Is More Interesting


James Carney desperately needs to proofread and run spell check on his blog. I count 10 spelling errors and more grammatical errors than I have time for on his most recent post on the Bolder Boulder 10k. He graduated from college so I assume he just doesn't give a shit, and that's cool with me. It gives them a special flavor anyway and only lends to making them more interesting than Hall and Ritz's latest.
I'm not perfect either James(pretty close though..).....

You can read the post under the cut.


Dathan Ritzenhein Blogs On Nutrition


Like Hall, Ritz put up a new post over on his blog and it's almost as uninformative.
He had asked for suggestions on what to blog about, and out of 37 suggestions, 4 were asking to hear about nutrition. So he went with that. Which he also blogged about in Nov. and is fairly similar.

There are very few details on what he actually eats other than Powerbar products(who he coincidentally recently became sponsored by), which is what might have made the thing somewhat interesting. Rather than that he simply telling us he eats "healthy meals" with vegetables and fruits, and stays away from processed foods.
Hm. Ok.
One thing a lot runners DO wonder about is elite's fueling during a marathon, which he does touch on, confusingly.
"Now I probably take in more fuel than most elites.  In professional marathoning they have bottle stations at each 5k in addition to the general gatorade, water, and Powergel stations.  In each station I try to take in 6 oz of a mixture of Powerbar Endurance Formula and Powergels.  I will dissolve the gel right in water to get a little high carbohydrate content and some caffeine as well.  It is something I have had to work up to in training and I think I have found the highest amount of calories, probably around 1000, that my stomach will handle."
I had to look up what Powerbar Endurance Formula is since I didn't know if it was a drink or a powder; and it's a flavored powder that you mix with water. So, he then mixes a gel into 6oz of that.

That sounds like it would make me vomit and I will def. not be trying that.

Ritz is a great guy, but  he really seems kind of boring, but that is mostly due to him being 100% devoted to being the best athlete he can be. I wonder if he's ever been drunk and got into a fight? I'm going to suggest that he blog about that next.

Arata Fujiwara Wins Ottawa Marathon. Sets CR.

 (photo Victah Sailer)
Japan's Arata Fujiwara took 62 seconds off the course record in Ottawa, running 2:09:33. A great time for a tough course.

I'm sorry, but it's just nice to see a non-Kenyan/Ethiopian win a marathon once in a while. Even if it's not a major. Get this guy in NYC for the fall. 

He took home $15,000 + $5000 for sub 2:10 time bonus.
Sake!!!

Ryan Hall Blogs About Summer Running.

Ryan Hall's latest blog post titled "Summer Running" basically tells you to drink Cytomax for hydration, wear Oakleys and a nice light weight Asics top.
It's just a little commercial for all of his sponsors, but hey, the guys got a family dog to feed.

You can read it HERE even though there is nothing useful in it.
I can sum it up real quick: stay hydrated, shade your eyes, and wear light clothing this summer and have fun running.
Thanks Ryan!!
(Pre's Mustache would also recommend using some sunscreen so you don't get cancer and die)

Bolder Boulder 10k

Team Ethiopia barely broke a sweat taking the men's title. And pretty much the same for the women's.

Here's the cash breakdown and I guess team Colorado of Brent Vaughn, James Carney, and Aaron Braun received $27,500 for second place, which split three ways is $9166 apiece; plus their individual winnings. So, drinks on those guys if you see them around Boulder this week.

And I guess Jorge Torres is alive and well, making his first appearance of the year. Nice to see.
