From: "Cable, Andy"
Subject: 6-day Race Report
Summary
I got caught up in the first day excitement and did too much fast mileage without paying attention to my feet. Days 2, 3, and 4 involve much hobbling and limping while impatiently waiting for my feet to
recover. Day 5 was a relaxing, restful day. Day 6 was much more successful. (more…)

Hello!
Nice reports from Andy, Pete and Mark on the 6 day. I don’t usually write race reports but this event was so memorable, I feel the need. (more…)

Subject: Coast to Kosciuszko report
My long overdue race report on Coast to Kosciuszko. Think of it as the Australian Badwater. 150+ miles, all on roads, lowest point to highest p point, heat, and you must supply your own crew. The race was about a month ago. (more…)

Delorean Goes to Phoenix
Yes it was that time of year again. The Across the Years run in Phoenix. The race begins before the new year and ends Jan 1 of the following year hence Across the Years. I have now attended the race seven times celebrating the coming of the new year on the track drinking champaign and watching fireworks. It is a multiday race offering various formats and over the years I have entered the 6day, 72hr and 48hr races. (more…)

Subject: ATY race report, or what might have been
For years I had read about the Across The Years race with interest, knowing how much I’d like to try it. But both the Arizona distance and the time of year made this pretty unlikely, since Jane and I have separate sets of kids, equally far flung and desiring our Xmas participation if we feel like cross-country holiday travel (Kansas, Montana, northernmost Vermont, etc.).
But finally this summer, with the increasing desire to make this race at least once before I get too darned old to be competitive, I decided to enter the lottery. The Sri Chinmoy 6-day I had done in May showed me just how much I would enjoy multiday racing. (more…)
Hinson Lake 24-Hour Classic
September 29-30, 2007
-As seen through the eyes of El Brad
Short version:
El Brad (EB) won with 115.52 miles.
Longer verison:
It was a dark and stormy night…well, ok, it wasn’t anything like that. It was actually a very nice day – for sitting on the beach (or by the lake fishing in the shade, I suppose for running too, whatever.)
I’ll begin by saying I am a really big fan of the Mangum Track Club. I have been ever since Mr. Long invited me down for a shirt run waaaaay back in 2002 on one of the Crowder’s sadistic loops. I can’t think of any members that I don’t like, a lot, but there is a core group that I’ve known for a while that I really enjoy being around. Fortunately for me, they don’t seem to mind me too much either, so it works out well. RD Tom (or RDT for the rest of the story – sounds like Paul Harvey, no?) falls into this elite category. (more…)
