Up late and it’s the weather is heating up! Two workouts and two naps and bed before 9pm because tomorrow I start my second Great Race Across Tennessee. The goal is a faster RAT and BAT this year in the GVRAT. Need the motivation and hopefully build some fitness if I do 1200 plus miles in 4 months. https://linktr.ee/AND3RSON

The most important person in the history of American distance running is, ironically, someone who is famous because of walking. Before Jeff was a guiding light for the masses, he was every bit the elite runner — an Olympian and US record holder for the 10 mile run. But lots of people have been Olympians and US record holders. To start, he pioneered the idea of a “specialty” running store. Don’t shop at running stores? Do you enjoy big spectacle races — the kind that bring together elite and recreational runners on one stage to share in the race experience? Do you enjoy being able to run local races pretty much any weekend you like? Chances are our race calendar would be looking more sparse these days without the thousands who started running thanks to Galloway’s Book on Running (the best-selling running book of all-time). Ok, ok, the walking thing. “Gallowalking,” the purists (myself included in my younger, dumber days) like to sneer — as if Pheidippides himself chiseled on tablets “thou shalt not walk.” https://www.podiumrunner.com/culture/jeff-galloway-may-be-the-most-important-person-in-the-history-of-the-running-movement/ https://linktr.ee/AND3RSON

No CIF State Meet so next weekend’s Arcadia will be where California’s finest track and field athletes will shine. Ethiopia is having their Olympic Marathon trials this weekend and their GOAT Kenenisa Bekele isn’t happy and won’t be competing. They are going with the top 3 make the team by KB and the 3rd and 10th fastest marathoners of all time won’t be at the starting line. They are fit but believe the race was too last minute and too close to Tokyo. Good news for college track and field athletes is the NCAA has approved their prelims so the top 48 will get to compete at Nationals. Speaking of competition, this weekend is the last weekend to try and make the USATF 24 Hour World team. https://linktr.ee/AND3RSON

What You Need to Know About the Barkley Marathons
The Barkley Marathons is one the hardest races in the ultrarunning world. Created by founder Gary “Lazarus Lake” Cantrell, the race provides one of the most grueling ultramarathons ever created. The Barkley Marathons has gained in popularity over the past few years, mostly because of new documentaries and stories that take you inside the race weekend. One of the most popular is The Race That Eats Its Young, which came out in 2014. Another new film, titled Where Dreams Go to Die, documents the two-year stretch where ultrarunner Gary Robbins attempted to complete all five loops. You can view it on YouTube now. #AND3RSON #HeartFailureSurvivor #EnduranceAthlete In March of 2020, I slipped on the illegally dumped cooking grease in front of John’s Burger and couldn’t walk for 6 weeks. This was my first injury since I started Endurance Training in 1979. Then in late April of 2020, I ended up in the hospital for the first time in my life. The diagnosis was Congestive Heart Failure.

Did Kilian Summit Everest?
Trail running is fun and all but access is limited in training and racing. So I don’t think it is that competitive compared to track and road racing. When Jornet announced he was going for Kouros’s 24 Hour World Record, I accurately predicted he would fail. And he did. This lead me to look at his most famous and some say most infamous feat: His Everest summit(s). I did some half assed Internet research and watched “Path to Everest” and made this video. #kilianJornet #everest #mountainrunner The possibility that the greatest mountain runner in the world did not actually summit Everest twice without oxygen or fixed ropes in May 2017, as he claimed, has been raised before. https://runningmagazine.ca/trail-running/kilian-jornets-two-everest-summits-disputed-in-new-book/ Endurance News & Random Musings https://andynoise.com/ Andy Noise Gear https://andynoise.com/gear Andy Noise Experience Stay Healthy.

Kilian Jornet STOPPED Earlier than I PREDICTED / 24 Hour
Kilian Jornet has dropped out, shortly after passing the 11-hour mark and 134.8 kilometres. Jornet had actually left the track sometime before this, but those following the attempt were hopeful he would be able to return and make up for lost time. The announcers said that Jornet had ended the record attempt, that he had been experiencing extreme dizziness and was advised by his doctor to stop the attempt. The record, set by Greek ultrarunning legend Yiannis Kouros in 1997, is 188.5 miles or 303.56 kilometres. #kilianjornet #YiannisKouros #24hourworldrecord

2021 USATF 100 Mile Road National Championship Preview
Beyond honored to announce the 8th Annual Jackpot Ultra Running Festival will once again host the official USATF 100 Mile Road National Championship race! As shown by some wickedly fast times last year, the 1.1761616 mile USATF 100 mile certified course is extremely fast. $10,000 USATF Championship Prize Pool Although we are just a small ultra company producing just a couple races each year, we want to do our part to help recognize the amazing ultra elite athletes. In our opinion, elite ultra runners are even more special than the top NBA and NFL players. To this end, we are happy to offer a $10,000 prize pool for the third year in a row. The first place man and first place woman in the USATF 100 mile race will receive $2,500 each, while the second place man and woman in the USATF 100 mile race will receive $750 each. The third place man and woman in the USATF 100 mile race will receive $250 each. If a new 100 mile American road record is set in the USATF 100 Mile Race, the winning male and/or female winner will receive an additional $1,000 each. Win and set a new Jackpot USATF course record and score an additional $500. So if you win the race and set a new course & American record, you'll take home $4,000. The 2020 male and female champions each set course records and took home $3,000 each. https://ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=45269
Eliud, Athing and Vagus
The GOAT is back.
Six months after his worst marathon — an eighth-place finish in London, just his second defeat in 15 outings over the 26.2-mile distance — Eliud Kipchoge returned to the top of the podium on Sunday morning, winning the NN Mission Marathon comfortably in 2:04:30 after breaking away from the lead pack just after 20 miles. Kipchoge’s time (the fastest in the world this year in what has been a limited 2021 season) and his margin of victory (2:10 over his friend and training partner Jonathan Korir) sent a message to anyone discounting his chances after his surprise defeat in London last fall: in 2021, the path to an Olympic gold medal still goes through Eliud Kipchoge.
Athing Mu’s incredible 2021 season got even better as the Texas A&M freshman ran 1:57.73 at the Michael Johnson Invitational at Baylor University to destroy the NCAA record and set a 2021 world outdoor leader. The previous NCAA outdoor record was 1:59.10 by Raevyn Rogers of Oregon from 2017, while Mu had run 1:58.40 indoors this year.
Why You Should Train Your Vagus Nerve, and HowSimple breathing exercises can relax your nervous system and improve performance. Stress is stress. Our bodies don’t necessarily know the difference between where stressors originate. A hard training session, a fight with a partner, looming economic concern, uncertainty of the ongoing pandemic; each contributes to the stress response with multiple sources piling up leading to larger problems in mind and in body. For runners, this can become increasingly problematic on a number of levels, including impacting the ever important relationship between training, stress and recovery.

Des Linden Gets Her 1st World Record, Runs 50K World Best of 2:59:54
Entering today’s Brooks Running 50K and Marathon in rural Oregon, American Des Linden — and just about everyone else — expected herself to break the 50K world best of 3:07:20 set by Great Britain’s Aly Dixon in 2019. Besting the mark would require Linden to average just under 6:02 per mile — or 2:38:05 for a marathon plus another five miles — well within the capabilities of Linden, a 2:22:38 marathoner (Dixon’s best in 17 marathons is 2:29:06). Less certain: whether Linden would become the first woman under 3:00.
Linden, the 2018 Boston Marathon champ who came two seconds shy of winning the Boston in 2011 and 11 seconds short of making her third Olympic team at the US Olympic Trials in 2020, knows the feeling of just missing a major milestone. Today, she got to experience the other side of it, running 2:59:54 (5:47/mile) to destroy Dixon’s record and, in the process, sneak under that coveted 3:00 mark.

It’s Running With The Burros Race Week
We invite individual runners and runners with burros to compete on a challenging course in the canyons of the southern Sierra Nevada. Let’s get one thing straight right away. Burro is the Spanish word for donkey, which is the same as an ass. All three words have identical meaning. The jokes write themselves, but ass is a completely proper word not to be avoided. Burro races are a long tradition in the mining community. Locally, Randsburg, Lone Pine, Death Valley, and Beatty have had burro races as far back as 1897. There were even 2.5 day 42 mile races from Apple Valley to Big Bear. Pack burro racing in the current format has been a tradition since 1949 where runners on foot race long distances with a pack burro as a team (one burro with each runner), guiding them with only a halter, lead rope, voice, and their bond as a team. https://ultrasignup.com/register.aspx?did=80173 2020 Run with the Burros Photo Album: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ZP2v1Yc4KcKBRSpT7 #AND3RSON #HeartFailureSurvivor #EnduranceAthlete In March of 2020, I slipped on the illegally dumped cooking grease in front of John’s Burger and couldn’t walk for 6 weeks.

Until the 1980s distance runners in the USA were amateurs for the most part and then the rules were changed and some become professional. Performance in big events was the way you landed a contract. But now a social media following is another route.... That fact remains that for elite runners who are fortunate enough to get one, a shoe contract is the most dependable way to make a living as a pro. But while in previous eras an athlete’s value might be based primarily on podium finishes or qualification for marquee events like the Olympics, the brave new world of influencer marketing and social media has added another dimension.

Yolanda Holder / The Walking Diva
With her second book, Misty Blue: 3100 Miles of Smiles and Pain, to be published soon, Holder hopes to help dissolve negative stigma around powerwalkers and race walkers, she says. “Runners can look down on walkers, feeling like they’re more superior. I’ve had joggers or slower runners catch up to me and make smart remarks. I’ve been pushed and told to get out of the way. We share the same road.” https://www.irunfar.com/2021/04/werunfar-profile-yolanda-holder.html Holder is also excited to help set the bar for the next generation of athletes. “The ladies in their forties are completely badass.

Need 16 miles to log my second 100 mile week of 2021. The plan was to meet some friends for some miles but they slept in. So it was me and LetsRun.Com where they talked about who will make the USA Olympic team in the distances races. Plus they gave air time to a barefoot runner who thinks he can break the World 100 Mile Record at the Doom this summer. Spoiler Alert: He will fail #AND3RSON #HeartFailureSurvivor #EnduranceAthlete In March of 2020, I slipped on the illegally dumped cooking grease in front of John’s Burger and couldn’t walk for 6 weeks.

I knew based on last year’s attempt that day 1 is hard due to elevation (9000ft mtn climb + lots of climbing- 10,000ft), necessity of carrying a lot of water https://www.instagram.com/p/CNNx3i_HfNB/ @harveylewisultrarunner Ohio Backyard Ultra (Part 3 of 4) Nutrition is king! Eating Plant Based really is an advantage both in energy, consistency and limited risk of stomach issues both in training as well as racing. https://www.instagram.com/p/CNNyTsMH2YR/ XC and track aren't the same thing. Guy who was 107th at NCAA xc just beat the guy who was 1st. Eduardo Herrera 13:24 FTW. https://letsrun.com/forum/flat_read.php?thread=10505688Big (33-second) pb for Colorado's Eduardo Herrera to win the men's 5,000 at Hayward Premiere. Considerably smaller pbs for BYU's Conner Mantz & Casey Clinger -- but they will be very pleased to have snuck under the Olympic Trials standard (13:25.00). They'll be back here in June. Also I know at this point we're used to BYU being very good, but I just want to point out that a college team having three guys run 13:26 or faster in the same race is bonkers In February, a U.S. district judge in Washington, D.C., ruled that requiring a permit for commercial filming in the national parks is a violation of free speech.

This not sleeping is getting old. The days are long enough already but when your logging 3 hours a night ... Was listening to a room on Clubhouse and turn volume off and decided to record this and then when I listened it was recording the room. Hope I don’t get kicked off of clubhouse, probably pissed off those in the room. Great bunch of funny actors etc The sleeplessness is all the more scary because a year ago after my fall the same thing happen and I ended up in the hospital for the first time... #AND3RSON #HeartFailureSurvivor #EnduranceAthlete In March of 2020, I slipped on the illegally dumped cooking grease in front of John’s Burger and couldn’t walk for 6 weeks.
