Bedrock Runs: Massanutten Preview
http://bedrockruns.blogspot.com/2009/05/massanutten-preview.html
In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks." -John Muir. Thursday, May 14, 2009. I can't believe Massanutten is already here! I feel very blessed to be able to even contemplate something as demanding as a 100-mile run. I am really looking forward to enjoying my time in the beautiful Massanutten mountains of Virginia.

Bedrock Runs: Motivation
http://bedrockruns.blogspot.com/2010/01/motivation.html
In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks." -John Muir. Tuesday, January 5, 2010. My most crushing DNF was at Ironman Austria in 2003. I was ashamed of it for a long time and then started wearing the race polo shirt once a week for a month so people would ask me about it and Id have to answer, No, I dropped out. Somehow, it helped motivate me and pull me out of the funk. Good luck and happy training! January 5, 2010 at 2:42 PM. I love that photo! January 7, 2010 at 2:37 PM.

Bedrock Runs: Happy 2010!
http://bedrockruns.blogspot.com/2010/01/happy-2010.html
In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks." -John Muir. Monday, January 4, 2010. I took a bit of time off around the holidays and to get refocused for this year. 2009 was a terrible year for me running wise, including my first DNF. And got three marathon finishes (Black Mountain, Grandfather Mountain and Thunder Road). With the lack of training (my TOTAL mileage for 2009 was less than 800! This is actually not too bad. In August. More to come and I promise, more frequent updates.

Bedrock Runs: TAPER!
http://bedrockruns.blogspot.com/2010/04/taper.html
In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks." -John Muir. Wednesday, April 28, 2010. I have done the hill repeats, the speed work and the tempo/recovery runs. I AM READY! I feel good, in fact I would say I have never been stronger or fitter physically. A complete 180 degrees from a year ago. Mentally, I just need to stay confident and remember that I have done pretty much everything I could to prepare. Well, its time for one of those 6-8 mile runs. April 29, 2010 at 6:45 AM.

Bedrock Runs: YES, I am Alive!!
http://bedrockruns.blogspot.com/2010/03/yes-i-am-alive.html
In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks." -John Muir. Wednesday, March 17, 2010. YES, I am Alive! Just been incredibly busy. Training has been going really well. Have had several nice runs out at Crowder's. The last couple of months. The Myrtle Beach Marathon got cancelled due to snow (4 inches at the beach was actually really cool). The amount of snow up near Asheville. Has made running up there pretty treacherous so Crowder's. Is only two months away. I have. YES, I am Alive!

Bedrock Runs: Laurel Valley Report
http://bedrockruns.blogspot.com/2009/08/laurel-valley-report.html
In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks." -John Muir. Monday, August 10, 2009. Two years ago, when I first ran LV. I got my a$ handed to me. Yeah, it was over 100 degrees but I was still unprepared for what was ahead of me. I got some lovely blisters on my heels as a souvenir. Remember this lovely picture? Last year I ran great and had an absolute blast, running much faster than 2007. Cooler temps helped as did being in really good shape. What would 2009 hold? I spent a solid 25 min...

In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks." -John Muir. Monday, May 18, 2009. R-E-S-P-E-C-T, the key to DNFing MMT. It is pretty simple, the heat wore my under trained body out. I had hoped to get my third MMT buckle, but that will have to wait until next year. The section to Milford Gap was uneventful and I tried to take it really easy since there was plenty of time. Plus there was a 4 mile road section coming up where I could make up time if I needed to. I was taking an S! To add to...
