Dancing With The Dirt: November 2012
http://dancingwiththedirt.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Dancing With The Dirt. Monday, November 19, 2012. Roof of Africa Run - Stage 2. 32 km/20km -5:30 hours - 3000 feet vertical. Samanga to Rongai, in the northwest part of Kilimanjaro. We saw a lot of cabbage, maize, tobacco, avocado. The second part of the day we started to get away from some of the villages so saw many fewer people. We ran through areas that are used for growing and harvesting trees. We would run through these amazing pine forests with a bed off pine needles on the forest floor wh...Despi...

Dancing With The Dirt: It's a Boulder Experience
http://dancingwiththedirt.blogspot.com/2012/12/its-boulder-experience.html
Dancing With The Dirt. Sunday, December 30, 2012. It's a Boulder Experience. The Little Yoga Studio in central Boulder seemed to be the only yoga studio in town offering a group practice, so that was where I went. More than thirty of us showed up for this donation based class with funds going towards Western Resource Advocates. This class was to be led by Valerie D’Ambrosio. The founder of the Hanuman Festival. I suppose this whole experience would seem odd to many, but. Who knows what will happen next!

Dancing With The Dirt: September 2012
http://dancingwiththedirt.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Dancing With The Dirt. Tuesday, September 25, 2012. Running as a Microcosm of Life. Larry Shapiro, "Zen and the Art of Running". Sunday, September 23, 2012. I love running the mountain trails around Boulder, to gain elevation and be in the trees and dance on the rocks and over the roots. Many times when I’ve run this trail I feel open and energized in this wide open area – I love wide open areas. And the thought comes, I want to run to Kansas across the high prairie and grasslands of East...I'm a lifelon...

Dancing With The Dirt: Roof of Africa Run - Stage 3
http://dancingwiththedirt.blogspot.com/2012/12/roof-of-africa-run-stage-3.html
Dancing With The Dirt. Sunday, December 2, 2012. Roof of Africa Run - Stage 3. Day 3 – The Easy Day. 32km/20mi, 1200 feet of climbing (2400 feet descending), 4:45. This was another day of complete contrast the first two. Today we would run around the northern part of the flanks of Kilimanjaro. In the morning we ran through some pines forests. Pine is not a native tree, but they grow it here and harvest it. It felt completely odd to be running on a bed of pine needles in Africa! Despite how rough I felt d...

Dancing With The Dirt: Roof of Africa Run - Stage 4
http://dancingwiththedirt.blogspot.com/2012/12/roof-of-africa-run-stage-4.html
Dancing With The Dirt. Sunday, December 2, 2012. Roof of Africa Run - Stage 4. Stage 4 - The Farms. 38km / 23mi – 3500 feet vertical, 6:45. Today was also the day my body decided to wake up! Having done many multi-day events before, I know it usually takes my body 3 days to warm up. And it was warmed up now. Halfway through this day my body changed gears and suddenly I had new energy and a smoother gait. I just motored along the second half of the day. We ended the day with another amazing dinner family ...

Dancing With The Dirt: February 2013
http://dancingwiththedirt.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Dancing With The Dirt. Tuesday, February 19, 2013. The Roof of Africa. Simon's dream of the Stage Run. Was fueled by several desires. The mountain has been an important part of his life – first, as the provider of life-sustaining water and fertile soil for his family’s farm growing up, then as a boundless source of beautiful and challenging trails for running, the sport he loves, and finally as a livelihood with his climb business. We realized this more as we runners immersed ourselves in the experience.
