Last month I ran the United Community Bank 44th Reedy River Run 10k in Greenville, South Carolina. Not much to say except I feel like I had a good race and gave a good effort. The course is really nice, with the start and finish on city streets in the ...
My goal was to run under 1 hour... and with a furious kick... I made it! [image1] Photo Credit: Marathon Photos Live [image8] Photo Credit: Marathon Photos Live My training leading up to the race went well. I did a lot of hill training and a fair amount of tempo ...
I was definitely not fresh for the Life South Half Marathon 2022, having two hard workouts earlier in the week. I wanted to use this as a hard training effort in preparation for an upcoming race and I feel good that I accomplished what I set out to do. I ...
For the 2022 Newnan's Lake 15k, the story of the day was the weather... cold and breezy. With the temperature in the high 30s plus variable amount of wind chill it was hard to decide what to wear. Some people were all bundled up and later regretted it. I think ...
In October 2021 I ran two 50k Ultramarathons. The first was the Stump Jump 50k Trail Run near Chattanooga, TN. The second was my "hometown" Florida race, the Gate2Gate Trail Run held at San Felasco Hammock Preserve State Park. Boom! This race has a real shotgun start. [image8] Photo credit: ...
On October 2, 2021 I ran the 20th Annual Stump Jump 50k trail race at Signal Mountain, Tennessee (just north of Chattanooga). I did something very different for this race compared to other races... I ate a lot of sweets (and consumed a lot of electrolytes) rather than trying to ...
Thunderstorms delayed the 2021 Melon Run 3-miler but left slightly cooler temperatures at race time than usual. The race has been renamed the Jack Gamble Melon Run in honor of the Florida Track Club's first president. [image1] (Photo credit: Florida Track Club) [image2] (Photo credit: Jason Seitz) I'm very happy ...
According to the UltraSignup page, Pine Mountain Trail Race (PMTR) celebrated 40 years this year and is the oldest ultra marathon in the state of Georgia, having first run in 1980. PMTR is a Georgia Ultrarunning and Trailrunning Society (GUTS) event with Jen Raby as the RD (Race Director). [image3] ...
The Vanish-R is a super lightweight racing flat from Altra. [image1] Getting a shoe this light seems to guarantee that there are some compromises and tradeoffs. These shoes remind me a lot of the Mizuno Wave Universe 3 from (many) years ago... [image2] Both are lightweight. So extremely light! Both ...
For the 2020 Gate River Run, the national 15k championship race, I traveled to Jacksonville with a friend the night before the race and we stayed at the race hotel. We were able to pick up our race packets and enjoy the expo without feeling the rush of race day ...
This year the race start and finish venue was downtown Gainesville, FL. On Sunday morning parking was no problem, with many city lots reserved for racers to park. The weather was nice and course was great. [image1] Photo by Enoch Nadler [image4] Photo credit: LifeSouth Community Foundation I enjoyed my ...
2020 provided another perfect race day for the Lloyd Clarke Sports Newnan's Lake 15k. Weather was sunny with temps in the 40s at the start. I didn't find any photos of me racing, but I did take a photo of the lake before the start. [image1] I am really happy ...
The Lloyd Clarke Sports Race Series is a grand prix of three races: Turkey Trot 10k 1018 Newnans Lake 15k 2019 Trail of Payne 10k 2019 This is one of the few years where I was actually able to run all three races. This post will be a combo post ...
2019 was another enjoyable GATE River Run 15k experience. I rode the Florida Track Club bus to Jacksonville on the morning of the race. This required an early wakeup, but it was nice not having to worry about parking. The bus takes us inside the event grounds, very close to ...
This is going to barely be a race report. I find myself too busy to write very much or very often. I rode the Florida Track Club bus to Jacksonville on the day of the race which was a great way to travel so early in the morning and not ...
What a wonderful day for the 1st annual Gate2Gate Trail Run back in October. I ran the 25k. At dawn's first light, ready to go (I'm on the left wearing the Salomon S-Lab Sense Ultra Set Hydration Vest and Under Armour - The Flash compression shirt): [image1] Photo Credit: Cathy ...
For the past few years I have used Nathan handheld bottles for my hydration needs. These have worked well, and carried me through my first 50k quite successfully a few years back. This summer has been especially brutal in Florida... high heat and lots of humidity, day after day, week ...
The 2016 Gainesville "Thursday Night Lights" track meets begin on the evening of June 30. Cone Park Track will be host to track and field events for children and adults of all ages. The cost is $1 admission at the gate to cover the cost of Timing and Starter. [image1] ...
This past weekend my friend Richard G. and I went to the local track to take some video of our running forms. [image3] Here are two videos of my running, both edited with the OpenShot Video Editor. The first video was taken on a GoPro Hero in 720p mode, with ...
Racing a 15k three weeks after running a full marathon PR is not ideal. I managed to squeeze in some speed work and felt remarkably recovered on race day of the 2016 GATE River Run. This year I once again rode the charter bus provided by Florida Track Club which ...
A little over a month ago I ran the Ocala Marathon in a bit under 3:19, or 7:35 minutes per mile. For the Five Points of Life Marathon, I was planning for even pacing of 7:10 - 7:30 per mile, hoping to earn a Boston Qualifying time (BQ) and run ...
I finished the Ocala Marathon with a smile on my face and I was able to put on pants afterwards without triggering any muscle cramps, so I consider this to be Mission Accomplished! [image2] Photo by EventMugShots I finished in 3:18:51 (avg. 7:35 per mile) and 3rd place overall. [image4] ...
Last month I ran the Inaugural Alachua Lake Half Marathon which was another fine event directed by Bobby of Lloyd Clarke Sports. After a low mileage summer (about a month and half of 20-30 mile weeks) that included a lot of Stand-Up Paddleboarding (SUP) instead of running, I have been ...
While searching for any newly released minimalist shoes in 2015, I found the Tesla BareTrek 30 Minimalist shoes on Amazon for under 30 bucks. I ordered the brightly colored Orange and Blue (Go Gators!). My Teslas arrived in a plastic bag, tied with a little red plastic cord. No unusual ...
I am super late in getting this race report out. The Gate River Run 15k in Jacksonville happened in March and I see that it is now July... This year I was seeded into the front of the first wave, with a yellow 3-digit race number, based on the quality ...
The 2015 Gainesville 2nd Annual Summer All Comer Track Meets are coming soon! On Thursday Evenings June 11th, June 18th and July 2nd, Cone Park Track will be host to track and field events for children and adults of all ages. The cost this year will be $1 per person ...
The LGAA 5k and Corporate Challenge is held at Ironwood Golf Course in Gainesville, Florida. http://www.lgalum.com/LGAA-5K I have had the pleasure of participating on the Youth Combine race team for the past 2 years, both of which... we won! Youth Combine is a local Gainesville organization that offers affordable, effective ...
[image2] Photo via Five Points of Life (Facebook) In February I finished my third marathon, the Five Points of Life Marathon 2015. Here's all of the good stuff... Official finish time was a BQ of 3:12:50 (should meet the 2016 Boston Marathon qualifying standards), Masters Winner, PR by over 13 ...
I earned my first "tortoise trophy" at the 2015 Race The Tortoise 5k at O'Leno State Park. This is always a nice event and a fast course. [image1] I just didn't have a lot of racing gumption in me that day but still managed a Masters win. Congrats to the ...
I have been looking for a more robust trail shoe to handle a 40- or 50-mile Ultra over rugged terrain (think Mohican 50 in Ohio or Highlands Sky 40 in West Virginia or maybe Pine Mountain 40 in GA). I am hoping for more protection from rocks underneath and from ...
