I've been following your blog for sometime now, but posting for the first time. I guess I found myself wondering why there hasn't been a mention of Jocelyn in months too? Not trying to step on a touchy subject(if it is)bro, just find it a bit curious. <br /><br />best of luck in 2011<br />BrianBrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07664666061795812760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451222917425507533.post-58729168270874690752010-12-23T02:44:35.922-07:002010-12-23T02:44:35.922-07:00i like this blog but where are your

I'm sure you are getting all sorts of suggestions on "who to see" in Boulder and what not. <br /><br />I thought I would share my guru (I guess we all have ours). His name is Josh Shadle and he owns a little company called TriMassage on 30th above Christy Sports. He mostly works with pro triathletes and my favorite thing about him is his Muscle Restoration (MRT). He teaches me what I need to do when something is non-functional. The MRT is not massage and it doesn't take any recovery. <br /><br />I don't want to sound lame, but I always walk out feeling better than I went in, his goal is to get rid of pain, and he's good! <br /><br />Anyways, I hate acting like an advertisement, but every time you write about struggling with something I always think "He needs to see Josh".goSonjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06748893144293913815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451222917425507533.post-32679974729421558392010-12-17T13:59:26.094-07:002010-12-17T13:59:26.094-07:00anton,

Taking the time to write them down is pure gold! It makes you analyze what you did right or wrong, and then the action of writing them imprints them in your brain far better than not. I've gotten much faster lately because of it. It's a brilliant habit and I appreciate you getting me started on it.

Thanks!
I cert...Yes, that was me on the track. <br /> <br />Thanks! <br /><br />I certainly agree with you on there being no one solution to realizing your greatest potential in mountain running... or at any endurance event. I’ve seen this reality at the College level and for marathons, but I was surprised to see the vast range in training for ultras too. Nick Clark really stays in touch with his speed work and at first glance, he seems to keep the mileage amazingly low considering his success at the Wasatch 100, and Western States. <br /><br />Working hard on long climbs and descents on mountain trails feels the best and is the most fun for me. I do plan on having one day a week dedicated to maintaining my speed and endurance at speed on flatter terrain, maybe even a little work on the evil track from time to time. <br /><br />Indeed, I’ll see you on the trails soon, somewhere!Jason Schlarbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00649845109235484268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451222917425507533.post-44211620914821764632010-12-13T21:41:06.140-07:002010-12-13T21:41:06.140-07:00Derek-Right now any Mark-style intense deep massag...Derek-Right now any Mark-style intense deep massage would mostly just increase the already ample inflammation, but once the calf calms down again I may look into his services in order to regain some reasonable dorsiflexion range of motion in my lower leg.<br /><br />Jason--You're the dude that bumped into Scott and I on the BHS turf one morning this fall, yeah? Fantastic ultra debut out in SF and I'm glad my blogging could provide some guidance/inspiration. It's always exciting to see someone new catch the mountain/ultra/trail bug and it seems you've got the right mindset to really find some success in it. Keep in mind that the way I do things is by no means a golden ticket to mountain success--be sure to listen to your body and make sure you're doing the kind of training that is right for you at any given time. I'm sure we'll run in to each other out on the trails sometime soon.Antonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11148317903654491236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451222917425507533.post-12089101547119214012010-12-13T16:33:17.453-07:002010-12-13T16:33:17.453-07:00Remember, there's a 7AM start for the slowpoke...Remember, there's a 7AM start for the slowpokes this Saturday.

Bummer about the calf. <br /><br />Your blog was one of the main reasons we decided to screw the east coast and just spend our vacation in Boulder with the sole focus of running. We've never been here before. It was our first morning and we had a great kickoff to the day meeting you guys, who we live vicariously through via your blogs/trail photos, and we had an awesome run! Going to be a bummer going back to the east coast.<br /><br />Rob & LaurieRob Timkohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07338469461531711957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451222917425507533.post-59227878764784457842010-12-13T15:04:47.213-07:002010-12-13T15:04:47.213-07:00What!

Thank you.
Rather you realized or ...Hello Anton!<br /><br />Thank you. <br /><br />Rather you realized or not, I have been studying and just recently, applying, your training and subsequent philosophies on long distance mountain running. I’ve been an “Anton Blog Groupie” since about May. <br />I don’t want to bore you or others too long, but I’m finally coming around in embracing the fact that I am most happy running in the mountains and that I can satiate my need for speed and competition in a rapidly more competitive, popular and available Ultra Trail and Mountain running scene. I don’t think I’ll miss the road. <br />So after my commitment and goal of running a faster marathon on a not that fast course on Halloween (2:27:18) and doing a cross country race in Italy the week after, I fully embraced your training regimen for a tease of 11 days here in Boulder. While I usually did do weekly long runs for around 2-3hrs on trails in the mountains, this was a huge switch. <br />I loved every step. <br />I ran up Green Mtn everyday but two and barefoot afternoon runs 8 of those 11 days. I ran a 30 mile long run, my longest run ever, all over the Boulder front range’s trails, and furthermore, ran 42 miles further than I ever had for any given 7 day period in my life. I was sleeping over 9hrs a day, eating pretty much non-stop and while not running or sleeping, I walked around in a foggy haze of bliss. Perfect. <br />This indulgence started 20 days before The North Face 50 Mile Championships in San Fran, so physiologically it is debatable rather I gained much and I might have shown up a bit worn from the 145 and 112 mile weeks of mountain climbing bliss just 3 weeks out. BUT, in my mind (psychological), I showed up as an Ultra Trail Runner, not a moderately fast road weenie. I ran my race, believed in myself and surpassed my goals for time and place despite weather and a poor choice in foot wear. <br />Your training, philosophies and perspectives on running long distances in the mountains, along with the luck of being co-located within 5 miles of each other, has been an unbelievable catalyst and enabler.<br /><br />Thank you. <br /><br />Just like the rest of the Ultra community, it was personally deflating to hear about your injury before North Face (and last week’s re-tweak), may your full recovery be quick. <br /><br />Hope to run into you at this weekend’s run in Fort Collins, on the trails or at least at the PP 50K. <br /><br />Jason Schlarb<br />http://jasonschlarb.blogspot.com/Jason Schlarbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00649845109235484268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-451222917425507533.post-81050902486279979162010-12-13T12:51:53.655-07:002010-12-13T12:51:53.655-07:00Tony, Have you tried having Mark P look at your ca...Tony, Have you tried having Mark P look at your calf yet?
