Subject: [mountainmilers] Quick note from Dan  THE MAN Pemble a hill 
running tip from me...



Dan owes Steve-O a beer for his accomplishment in Man vs. Horse  and 
haven't had a chance to do this yet.  This is the  plan...We will start at 5:30 
 
on Tuesday at PBC and go from there.  Everyone is welcome so please  consider 
joining us!  Dan 
 
Note:  Dan why would you congratulate Steve for doing something  as stupid 
as running 50 miles through some dumb mountain range???  If  Steve had been 
searching for gold or silver in the Mingus mountains THAT would  have made 
sense...
 
OK - here is a hill running tip from my Chi book (OK - so here is a 2nd  
tip first:  if your running shoes weigh more that 8 ounces - throw them  
away...they are "running you" instead of the other way around...in other words  
if the shoes are heavy and clunky you can't be in touch with the ground as 
you  glide over it...you are altering your stride because the shoes are making 
you  alter your stride...the minimalist shoe makes sense and I can promise 
you one  thing (ask Rob too) - you WILL go faster.  
 
Back to the hill tip - I have shared this with Rob and Dave.  I know  they 
are both skeptical.  They should be. There are only 2 people  that I know 
that enjoy running hills: Kam Hott and myself.  I only like  them since I was 
in the St. George marathon in 2006 and I vowed to NEVER  let anyone pass me 
on an uphill unless it was late in a marathon/ultra and I  was all out.  So 
in effect I have "embraced" the hills and kept my  promise.  As for Kam - he 
is one sick B-TARD.  He does actually  enjoy it.  Maybe brain damage from 
working in the computer field???   Brain damage from working in the academic 
field?  Maybe Karyn slipped him  some of that "Happy Water"??
 

Attached are 3 picture of page 177-179 from the Chi running book.  I  
haven't perfected this but I have tried it and if you hate hills - you will  
love 
this...AND go faster too.
 
If I ever see any of you trying to pass me on a hill while using this  
technique - it won't be pretty...Ken out.
