Wow, that looks interesting, I am going to have to try that out. Thanks for
sharing Ken. Oh, and I think Karyn slipped me something.

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.
