More later.
Good to hear you not only survived but finished. Looking forward to your report.0 -
This month has finished with a whimper for me. Literally. I'm sitting here wimpering because I feel like death warmed up, haven't run in four days and have eaten all the things, and I'm solo-parenting as my husband is away. And may I add, not just away, but away in Rarotonga for a week on holiday with the boys. For those who don't know, Rarotonga is a tropical island in the middle of the Pacific which has amazing snorkelling and diving and sunshine and heat even though it's winter there. SO. NOT. FAIR.
Anyway, for much of the month I was a running machine and hit my goal with five days to spare. Toyed with the idea of shooting for 200km before the lurgy hit (first the children then me). July should be a good month, but with two weeks of school holidays in the middle along with it being the depths of winter here which means I can't run after hours as it's too dark, my 100 mile target could be a bit ambitious. Let's see... If I'm better tomorrow I will run to pick my car up from the panel beaters, which is about 20km away. Cross your fingers for me!

Does anyone have some recommendations of stretches/foam rolling mostly for calves and IT band? I'm still having a lot of pain in those two places and it's making running painful which is no fun! I've been doing some that I'm familiar with but any other tips/tricks are most welcome at this point!1

I had forgotten to post this the other day. Hopefully I will manager to drag myself out tonight to at least get 10 in for the month. Disappointing since july is going to be a disrupted month anyway and the swirly stuff remains for a few weeks at least.

2019 GOAL: Knock a full hour off my 50k time at Hell Have No Hurry5 -
Hell Have No Hurry Race Report:
We showed up about an hour before my start time of 10am. At this point the lot that I wanted to park in was already full, as were all save the overflow lot. This sank my plan to use my Jeep as a bag drop, but that turned out to not be an issue at all. The temperature prediction for race start was 79 degrees but it already felt warmer when we arrived.
The race was five 10k loops. My start was 10am, and Kristi’s was 2pm (she was doing the 30k, three 10k loops). My plan was if I could keep each loop under one hour, I could finish my race and run the last two laps of Kristi’s with her. On paper it was a great plan. Flawless.
Too bad I was not running on paper.
Kristi moved into the aid station and volunteered there until her race start. This had the added benefit of letting me use the aid station as a bag drop. This was a lifesaver later in the race.
So, I lined up with the front of the pack like I always do, and they blow the horn. I stick with the top five runners for a little while. We were holding an 8:10 pace which I know I would lose once I hit the hills. They told me the course would get harder the farther along the loop I went, so I was hoping to bank a little time.
I eventually slowed down and let the top five run away from me. I had no plans to place, so no reason to pound after them. From this point on I passed and was passed from time to time but mostly ran alone. It was a loop so saw several people over and over.
I reached the start/finish aid station in about an hour twenty. This was twenty minutes slower than my target and probably a good twenty minutes faster than I should have. That would be my best lap of the day.
It got brutal fast after this.
The temperature climbed, and the mud got worse and worse. There places where the mud was so deep and so slippery, I had to slowly walk with my arms out like I was on a balance beam. At least twice I had to spider crawl up a muddy bank. My shoes’ cleats filled up with mud despite stopping to wash them out at the creek every time we crossed it which made the flat dry areas just as slippery.
By the time I completed my second loop, reports were trickling in that runners were dropping out. After the third loop, I saw at least one runner being pulled from the course and I told Kristi that I thought she should take a DNS. Yes, it was that bad. (Side Note: She ran, but they pulled her from the course at 20k. I am very glad they did!)
One guy I passed was like “You know we could just stop and go home. There is nothing to stop us.” So, I told him “Hey, you paid for this fun.” Not sure whatever happened to him. I am guessing he dropped.
My target time was five to six hours, my official PR at a 50k is 7:23:34 (I thought it was 6:23, which did not help my planning). I crossed the finish line at 9:25:15.
I will say I was very disappointed as I crossed the line. When I sat down to eat the cheeseburger provided I was not at all happy with my performance and tried to reason out what went so wrong. How could I have missed my target by FOUR HOURS.
Well, when I got home, I looked at the results. First thing I noticed, over HALF the runners dropped out, many after just one loop. Second, the first-place runner took almost seven hours to complete the course, second place was over seven hours.
That means my five to six hours target was completely and totally beyond insane and impossible. In the end, I finished 19th overall.
There was nothing wrong with my finish time, I finished about where I should have given I am not an elite runner by any means. I just had expectations so far beyond reasonable as to be unattainable by the best runners out there.
The course and conditions were brutal. My plans were based on bad information. Essentially, I was expecting a much easier course and planned my pace, food, etc. all around that. I survived the race anyway, I even ran parts of the last lap, which shocked me a bit. Even as I was running, I was like “how am I still running? I should be in a stretcher!”
I am not sure I will return to this race next year, but I will decide that later. For now, I am actually going to take time to recover and try not to think about the stairs that I have to use today to move around my house.

Does anyone have some recommendations of stretches/foam rolling mostly for calves and IT band? I'm still having a lot of pain in those two places and it's making running painful which is no fun! I've been doing some that I'm familiar with but any other tips/tricks are most welcome at this point!
Tips and tricks... hmmm
Maybe change up your running surface? Find some trails assuming your not already running them.
For the ITB; Hip triangles- Leg out to the side, backwards then return to starting position. Glute exercises, maybe some donkey kicks, on all four and extend the leg out, deliberately kicking/extending back. And some quad strengthening. Maybe gym or just some high knees and squats (with proper form).
The calves. Just sore and overworked? Rotate shoes, perhaps cut some mileage back or add the cutback mileage to an additional day.
Brb checking your mileage...er kilometerage
Okay. Well honestly if it’s just “I’m sore” pain and that massage didn’t elicit any “oh kitten” pains and you can rub around and not find alarming pain, I’m going to suggest: 1. A cut back week, 2. Some base building. Which means try some shorter runs, more frequently. Maybe daily 2k runs or if you want the added time on your feet walk more and run slower.
And of course, are you in good shoes? You can try a magnesium supplement (if okay by your doc) and L-glutamine or BCAA’s can also help with muscle pain due to exercise.
All else, consult your favorite PT if needed.
Good luck!
ETA oh how’s your stride length? Try shorter steps.2 -
@PastorVincent I think you got dirty, worked hard, and should shake that post race funk. In my opinion, 5 hours for a 50k trail, is just unreasonable. @7lenny7 would be more of an authority on that. They typically are “races” that break you in ways road races don’t.
Ya did good. Where’s @MNLittleFinn? He’d be proud of you.2 -
Dang @PastorVincent, those look/sound like absolutely brutal conditions to run in, let alone race. Major kudos to you for even finishing when so many others dropped out. Great job 👍0

Next year when you pop in here claiming your December 2019 mileage, what accomplishments will you have made?
Run at least 4 5k races.
Get under 30:00 and a PR for 5k.
Average at least 135k per month, which would put me over 1,000 miles for the year.
Run the Year Team: Five for Nineteen
Sunny , warm, and humid for the race. Set my pacer at 6:15 per kilometer; actually ran 6:13; 6:09; 6:17; 6:38; and 6:19. In that fourth kilometer you come out of the shade and into the sun, which seemed brutal. The only guy older than 65 who beat me was 77 and ran in the 27:00s. My goal was to get under 32:00 and place in my age group; I did.
2019 Races:
4-13 Shine the Light 5K - 31:12 chip time; First Place male 65 and older
6-30 Strides for Starfish 5K - 31:34 chip time; 31/77 overall; second male 65 and older (no official category)

I stretch and use a foam roller after every run. I even have a small travel one that I pack for trips because stretching alone just isn’t the same. I use a basic 36 inch high density foam roller (easily found on amazon). I use it for my calves, but I know some people prefer a lacrosse ball for calves. I think it’s just how much pressure you can handle. I get muscle knots easily in general and rolling regularly has made a huge difference. You can find references and videos pretty easily on the internet for targeting specific areas. They are good to get started, but for the most part I just do what feels good/hurts the worst. The feeling is one in the same!!3 -

Thank you for the thoughtful and helpful reply! My run today felt quite a bit better so I think the massage, foam rolling and extra stretching is helping. I’ve had a lot of issues in the past with tight calves/hamstrings (toe walking as a child and I still do it if I’m not watching myself!) so things tend to always start pretty tight.
Do you have a link to a picture or video for the hip triangle? I’m having a hard time picturing them.
You have reminded me that I am past due for new shoes. So I’ll put that on the to do list!1 -
Run felt pretty good today. Calves started out sore and tight but loosened up. I had an epic, slow motion clumsy trip and fall at the 4 km mark where I scraped myself up pretty good but the only real damage was to my running tights ( biiiiig hole) and a decent scrape to the knee. I slowed down a bit after that but I was really pleased that I had made it to that point without walking!
Today's run: 6km/41:26
Distance so far: 52.5km!!!!
June distance goal: 50km8 -
I am preemptively putting in my run today in addition to the one I forgot to log on Friday. I am cooking this morning but I will definitely go run later and then I will promptly forget to log it and the month will be over. So, just doing it while I’m thinking about it. Missed my goal, but was closer than I thought I was going to be.

@pastorvincent - the race sounds brutal and you finished where others gave up and DNF. You are a badass and you trained well! Congratulations on your finish!! You earned those sore muscles!
@NiigataA - Here is a link too to some exercises I have been doing for my ITB (I do all except the SISE HIP Bridge). I think glute exercises in general help take the pressure off the ITB and your hip so in addition to these I do glute bridges and squats.

For your calves, I second the magnesium supplement suggestion by @elise4270. Also I have a Tiger tail stick roller that I find works really well for getting my calves rolled out. There are all kinds out there, padded ones, smooth ones or bumpy if you really want to dig in...1 -

I don't think I posted in a few days; Friday was 4.5 miles, about half with the dogs. Essentially just like I did on Tuesday, taking them out for a bit, then returning home for water and going out to finish alone. I intentionally went up a couple hills and was pleased I was almost able to run the whole way (albeit slow).
This morning I went out for my run around 9am. It was about 68F (49 dew point) and already felt quite warm. I took my frozen Wunjo with my phone and some food, and headed toward the nearby hills. I wasn't sure where the nearest park entrance was and was disappointed (at the time) for not paying better attention to the map. This meant running on the road for another mile or so to an entrance I'm more familiar with. By the time I got there, I'd stopped once to try to fix my water situation with very little luck. It was too frozen. So I had some water from a fountain and tried to fix it again. Almost got it, but after climbing some of the lovely hills, I stopped a third time and finally got it working properly. On my way out of the park, I found the entrance I'd missed on the way in. I think it was a good thing I'd missed it - it is rather steep (10-40%)! The section I'd gone up was only 5-25% which was difficult enough for me. I ate one stinger waffle and drank as much water as I could; next time I'll take the bladder out of the freezer sooner and/or add some water to it before I leave. It took me over 1.5 hours and the temp had gone up to almost 80 by the time I got home.
Total for June: 58.04 miles ran, 22.68 walked
I didn't quite reach my stretch goal (60) but got really close!
See you in July!8 -
Wrapping up June here. Headed out early for me (before 8:30 yay!) and was planning a short run with the pup after our 6.5 miles yesterday. I knew I didn't have 8 in my to meet my goal so the plans for a short out and back. I decided to cut over to the river bike trail as it has more shade for coming back, then we were both doing pretty well so I kept going up a ways to one of the manmade waterfall diversions to see the birds. The egrets were in full mating routine and Hobbes was fascinated by their show of feathers, sounds and dancing around. We hit 7 miles on our way home and I did a Happy Birthday dance for Hobbes - 7 mile on his 7th birthday!Birthday Boy - drooling as he waits to eat his cookieDidn't quite hit my goal but came oh, so close! I am quite happy with how much running I did manage this month though! Now on to July!

@Elise4270, @Scott6255, @Tramboman, @ContraryMaryMary and anyone else I missed. Thanks! Mrs. PastorVincent and I went for a 2-mile shakeout walk today. A little stiff, but I expect to be running again soon. Need to figure out what my next target is now...4
