Sunny and 32 degrees

It was a great day for a longer run.  I ran the first 3 miles with Hillary and the dogs to the end of our road, then took off on an atv trail to connect over to Castleton Village via Ames Hollow and Pond Hill.  Some hills to start and a stroll back on flatter Rte. 4a back to the house.  I am feeling really good this week even with some intervals and the longest run to date under my belt today.  A 10 miler is on the schedule for tomorrow and a rest day on Monday to start the school week.

I just started ultra running in 2013. I have done a couple Ironman triathlons then I did not train much for about 3 years. On July 27, 2013, after a long bike ride with some friends I got the itch and signed up for the Virgil Crest 50 mile ultra. I was able to place second overall and tie the previous course record. My longest week included a 27 mile run and a weekly total of 50 miles. I am curious what I can do with adequate training ...

I attempt to take advantage of each season and cross train as much as possible to prepare for my upcoming 2014 ultra running races. Below you will find excerpts from my training days and races. You can search the blog for individual race reports or other key words on the bottom right-hand side. I work full-time as a professor at Castleton State College, so I utilize weekends for longer workouts and do what I can during the week.

Let me know if you want to go for a run!
