Heather Newman of the Detroit Free Press wrote a great article about ultrarunning for the local Dances with Dirt 50m/50k in Hell, MI last weekend. It features four profiles of runners who used ultras to come back from health issues and get a new perspective on life. A few of my favorite quotes: "Bec [...]

What Is An Electrolyte Anyway?
Origen: A Trailrunners Blog | Autor: Scott Dunlap | Categoria:

If you're like me, you probably throw around the word "electrolyte" regularly without really knowing what they are. It's that salty stuff that helps you consumer water, right? ;-) Dr. Shawn Dolan at First Endurance has an updated article about electrolytes that spelled it out quite thoroughly. Here [...]

Origen: A Trailrunners Blog | Autor: Scott Dunlap | Categoria:

Inov-8 showed off some of their upcoming products at the Kendal Outdoor Retail Show (KORS) in the UK this month, and I see a couple of must-haves for my closet! Of course, I am a bit biased. But still, it looks like some great new product coming down the pipe: A 212-gram mountain running shoe, pote [...]

Some Days It Is Harder To Get To The Starting Line Than The Finish Line
Origen: A Trailrunners Blog | Autor: Scott Dunlap | Categoria:

Three weeks ago, I was clocking big miles to get ready for the Where's Waldo 100k this Saturday. Everything was going well thanks to the unapplied Western States training, and I started to have glimpses of a Top 10 finish at a USATF National Championship. Oh how grand it will be! (play Olympic theme [...]

El Horizonte De Cristal
Origen: Cabra de Monte Larryak | Autor: noreply@blogger.com (Larryak) | Categoria: Cites

No només durant l'ascensió sinó també en el descens perdo la orça de voluntat. Com més s'allarga la pujada menys important e sembla l'objectiu, i més deslligat eem sento de mmi mateix. L'atenció ha minvat, la memòria es debilita. La fatiga mental és ara superior a la corporal. És tan ag [...]

Moments De Dubte
Origen: Cabra de Monte Larryak | Autor: noreply@blogger.com (Larryak) | Categoria: Cites

¿No deu ser que l'atractiu de l'alpinisme rau a simplificar les relacions humanes, a reduir l'amistat a la interacció mínima (com la guerra), convertir l'Altre (la muntanya, el repte) en la relació mateixa? Rere una mística basada en l'aventura, el coratge, la vagabunderia del rodamón-antidots molt [...]

"alone To Everest"
Origen: Cabra de Monte Larryak | Autor: noreply@blogger.com (Larryak) | Categoria: Cites

"De petit ja vaig pujar amb una ambició i una determinació sense les quals segurement hauria esta molt més feliç. Sempre rumiava, adoptant el posat abstret d'un somniador, i vivia absorbit i fascinat per les altures. No sabia gaire què podria aconseguir a força de tenacitat però l'objetiu era ben a [...]

El Tour De Francia De Las Carreras De Montaña
Origen: Cabra de Monte Larryak | Autor: noreply@blogger.com (Larryak) | Categoria: Artículos carreras de otras webs

Ni un sólo kilómetro de su recorrido pasa por Francia. No hay rastro de bicis, maillots o ruedas. Sólo zapatillas. A primera vista, la carrera de montaña de larga distancia Transalpine run no tiene nada que ver con la gran prueba de referencia del ciclismo internacional, el Tour. Pero sólo hace fal [...]
