cartier vintage ring Ive dealt with my share of these

C,celine micro luggage tote online. when an exhausted Pheidippides met his fatethe marathon was viewed as the ultimate endurance test But that was before extreme runners like Ann Trason Scott Jurek [5] Dean Karnazes and El Caballo Blanco redefined boundaries Now that social media has reinforced the notion that everyday runnersfriends relatives drinking buddies soccer momscan cover unimaginable distances 262 miles no longer constitutes the edge of the endurance horizon
One hundred miles The distance no longer terrorizes Dare we say it's even a checkmark on bucket lists somewhere alongside visiting the Great Wall of China and going on an African safari Could 100 miles be the new marathon
"So many have proven they can finish a marathon" says Greg McMillan of McMillan Running coaching services "Now they want the next challenge It's a natural evolution"
Statistics indicate McMillan is right: 100mile finishes in the United States have increased from 1378 to 7029 since 2003 In 2014 the number grew by 17 percent
Sure 100milers won't threaten the marathon anytime soon,celine dion show tonight; last year the New York City Marathon had 50530 finishers But it shows a comparable stage of the race's development: During the early runningboom year of 1976 an estimated 25000 people finished US marathons Last year 34180 Americans finished ultras Worldwide the number was 208181
"There are a number of us for whom a marathon is relatively ordinary" says Ron Little vice president of the Coastside Running Club in Half Moon Bay California "It's a distance we cover in training runs"
No Oprah Effect
While the popularity of the distance might be on the rise Western States likely won't be hosting celebrity entrants anytime soon like so many marathons do
"Ultras have grown immensely but I don't know if they're comparable [to marathons]" says Hal Koerner Western States and Hardrock champ and author of Hal Koerner's Field Guide to Ultrarunning "I mean 262 miles is something most people can comprehend P Diddy Oprah and Pam Anderson have done one There still aren't a lot of people you meet that have run 100 miles
"The mileage holds a lot of respect with the everyday runner But most still think you're crazy for running that far" he says
Brett Gotcher a 2:10:36 marathoner and aspiring 2016 Olympian hears more chatter among runners about attempting distances longer than 262 miles but he isn't contemplating it himself "It's definitely crossed my mind One or two times I've gotten that invincible feeling where I feel I can run forever" he says "You wonder how far you could go Could I be good at that But then I say 'No way' It's a totally different sport It requires a different mentality"
Preparing On All Terrains
Sage Canaday who is attempting to qualify for his third Olympic trials marathon has developed into one of America's premier mountain/ultra/trail runners Five months after running the Los Angeles Marathon he plans to tackle 100 miles for the first time on Aug 28 at the prestigious UltraTrail du MontBlanc (UTMB) in Chamonix France The course traverses three countries 400 summits and has 35000 feet of climbing
Canaday 29 is unafraid of breaking from the established roadrunning world to explore the possibility of greater opportunities beyond in largely uncharted territory
"It's the same sport of distance running whether you're running a mile or 100 miles" Canaday says "It's a similar struggle"
Canaday's transition to trails and ultrarunning was more of a progression than a goal Training professionally for the roads didn't suit him as much as the mountains did and Canaday went on to win national mountain and trail championships He set an American record in the Mt Washington Road Race and captured consecutive Tarawera 100K titles in New Zealand
The UTMB course is daunting enough because of the climbs the aggressive pacing of the Europeans and the unpredictable weather But even to Canaday 100 milesmore than 40 miles longer than he has ever attempted at onceis disconcerting
"It would be hard enough on a straight track Add all the other variables and it can be a complete disaster I worry that I will have a complete breakdown and won't be able to finish" Canaday says
Canaday has prepared with 1000015000 feet of climbing a week around his home in Boulder Colorado On a single run he can gain 50006000 feet over 20 miles
Anna Frost a top ultrarunner who grew up on a hilltop in the New Zealand countryside found motivation to move up to 100 miles because of her desire to compete at the Hardrock 100 Set at an average of 11000 feet Hardrock boasts 67984 feet of elevation change in Colorado's San Juan range
"The distance never intrigued me as much until now" says Frost 33 who set a course record during her first 100miler the Bear 100 in Logan Utah and earned passage to the July 15 Hardrock race
Frost finds her inspiration in the mountains and views the growth of the sport as positive as long as it does not exploit the environment or stray from its origins as something of a spiritual quest
"I feel the values of people doing 100milers are true and heartfelt and I believe this will continue even when it grows" she says "It's wonderful to see so many people enjoy the beauty of trail running But there is a risk of the sport growing into something that doesn't keep in line with the true trailrunning values and the spirit of being in the mountains"
Pushing Through
Most ultra vets will say that the biggest difference between the marathon and 100 miles is the suffering The tone grows darker as the distance grows longer
"In a shorter race there are high points and low points but they're pretty shortlived" says Emily Harrison the reigning US and world 50K road champ who twice raced at Western States though she wasn't able to finish in 2014 "You learn how to push through it But in a longer race learning how to suffer is very different especially for people used to being able to run fast and push hard the whole time"
For a distance so difficult why are more people able to complete it Like any goal it mostly comes down to desire
"If you really want to do it you can do it" says Ian Torrence a McMillan Running coach who has run 187 ultras "Normal people who have children and 40houraweek jobs they do it You see people running crazy 200mile weeks lining up next to people running 30mile weeks Even if you know their entire training history it's really impossible to say who's going to finish and who's not"
Some major races have qualifying standards but most trust that entrants are properly prepared Even so safeguards are often in place with smaller loops and frequent aid stations and checkpoints
"I don't know how welltrained any runner is who runs my races" says Joe Prusaitis director of the Rocky Raccoon 100 in Huntsville Texas "I can't tell from looking at anyone if they can do it or not Mental strength cannot be underestimated and physical strength can be overestimated The miles will sort it all out"
The Experience
In late January Andreana Haley and Tim Hackett stood on the starting lines of their first 100mile racesHaley at the Rocky Raccoon and Hackett at the Coldwater Rumble in Goodyear Arizona
Haley 42 is a clinical scientist from Austin Texas studying the relationships between exercise and the aging of the brain She was drawn to running by her desire to become a guinea pig of sorts and to trail ultras by "Running on the Sun" a documentary on Death Valley's 1999 Badwater 135
Hackett a selfdescribed "desk jockey" smoked for 20 years and was 40 pounds overweight when he says a backpacking trip with his son's Scout troop "just about killed me"
Humbled Hackett stopped smoking started running and powered through a half marathon and marathon before discovering the trails ringing the Valley of the Sun
"While all this was going on I was laid off got another job and got divorced" says Hackett 48 of Mesa Arizona "The goal for me has never been to win races It's about feeling better and not dropping dead of a heart attack in five or 10 years"
Hackett began the Coldwater conservatively Thirty hours was his goal but the fiveloop course at Estrella Mountain Regional Park was more difficult than he anticipated with miles of deep sand in canyon washes
The third loop took him an excruciating 75 hours to finish as blisters sliced into his feet and nausea overwhelmed him Walking replaced running Hackett's savior: Cup Noodles The sodium allowed his body to rebalance and Hackett was able to gather his energy for the final push
"There were times of feeling really good and feeling really bad" he says "I knew you just have to ride through it"
For Haley anxiety prevented her from sleeping the night before And at 60 miles she too felt nauseous and refused to eat
Friends demanded she choke down food and finally they gave her an ultimatum: "No food no running"

How to Prep for 100 Miles
Photo by Paul Nelson Contrary to logical thought 100mile races are a realistic goal for even the average runner Ian Torrence veteran ultrarunner and McMillan Running coach insists that its within reach for anybody whos serious about preparation "If you really have a love for the sport of running and you like being out there thats going to contribute highly to your success" Torrence says "If your goal is to stand by the water cooler at work and tell people you ran this crazy 100mile race youre not going to succeed" Jessica Cranford winner of Floridas Skydive Ultra put it in more specific terms: "Youre faced with both doubt and determination But once youve crossed the start line youve decided on determination" Here are 10 tips on how to make 100 miles as achievable as possible:
1 Find a TrailMost 100mile races are on trails So get used to them "There are a lot of components with trail running that are different than road runningthe terrain moving up and down and tempering your quads and your legs for that kind of abuse" Torrence says "Its also seeing your normal 8minute pace go to 14 minutes and being okay with that"
2 Stay on Your FeetIts one thing to enjoy a leisurely run in the woods but its another to do it for hours on end However those are the kinds of runs that establish the longevity you will need for a race that could take more than 24 hours "You need to know what its like to be on your feet for four to five hours on the trails in training" says Sage Canaday a top mountain ultra and trail runner "Get used to the wilderness"
3 Progress Dont Dive HeadfirstStart with a trail half marathon or a 50K if youve already completed a road marathon and add distance from there "When you try a 50miler hang out there until youre comfortable" Torrence says "Theres a lot to learn therethe whole nutritional and hydration component that you cant quite get in a marathon" Next try 100K and finally 100 miles
4 Dont Overdo ItA misconception is the amount of mileage it takes to prepare Magdalena Boulet a US Olympian in the marathon covered more weekly mileage while training for 262 miles than the 80100 shes doing as she prepares for Western States Emily Harrison an Olympic Marathon Trials qualifier US and world 50K road champ and coach concurs "The most important thing is being healthy and showing up at the start line refreshed and not fatigued and burnt out already" Harrison says
5 Get a CrewIts essential for runners to have a team of supporters to provide aid and encouragement during those long hours Tim Schaum overall winner of Floridas Skydive Ultra 100miler says his crew kept his mind off the pain and discomfort "It was a memorable experience to have my closest friends join me on the final lap" he says "I will never forget it as long as I live"
6 Break It UpThe 100mile figure is daunting and incomprehensible In his first 100 Torrence was going to quit at 50 but was convinced to make it to the next aid station and the next until he finished Find a way to chop the distance up in pieces
7 Tough It OutHal Koerner a Hardrock 100 and Western States champion says that everybody crosses over into unknown territory in their first 100miler Dont panic Harrison says its good to think about how you will handle possible scenarios before you start "Just stay calm" she says "Is it a serious situation or something you keep going through"
8 Dont Stop At OneMost vets say that it takes several attempts to understand it The distance is so huge that the learning curve is even bigger than other races "The respect for the distance does not change it matures" Schaum says After first completing a 100 its time to correct mistakes for the second
9 Know When Youre ReadyBe patient "Being humble about the distance is one of the best ways to leverage confidence when it comes to ultrarunning Youll know youre ready when you can visualize success" Koernersays "The mileage doesnt loom as large anymore and you can come to terms with a day or more of running"
10 Learn From OthersFind a group or a coach who can share wisdom The Florida Ultra Runners group for example provides a few gems on its Facebook page: "No matter how bad things get keep moving" and "Its not just a race its a lifealtering experience"
After 20 minutes she felt well enough to eat and began to run She sensed that if she could get through the night everything would be fine With 10 miles to go the sun rose brightly and Haley felt rejuvenated
Hackett's pace quickened over the final 5 miles and he felt a "sense of elation" as he crossed the line in 29:30:20 He was 17th in a race that only 34 of 72 entrants finished
Haley was thankful to avoid visions of pink elephants and other hallucinations and passed runners swaying puking limping and passing out on her way to a time of 28:21:21
"I jumped into this stuff before I had a sense of what I was doing" she says "In some sense you don't know what you're capable of"
But isn't that the point in this new age of running You're willing to find out the prestigious 100mile event that gave rise to the ultrarunning movement.
