Training to find the Edge: December 2011
http://davidrockandice.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Training to find the Edge. Wednesday, December 7, 2011. JFK 50 2011 After Thoughts. Just like Sulphur, there are things that I didn't put in my report, cause I either didn't think of them at the time or it would have made it too long, but still I want to write down so I remember. Nutrition worked well as I said, and looking back was pretty light for the day, but it worked with virtually no stomach issues. 4 x EFS Gel Flasks. 2 x Gatorade Prime. Still in awe of what I did. I know there are 70 people w...

Training to find the Edge: YAU Marathon 2012 – Race Report
http://davidrockandice.blogspot.com/2012/02/yau-marathon-2012-race-report.html
Training to find the Edge. Friday, February 10, 2012. YAU Marathon 2012 – Race Report. The marathon was being run as part of the 100mile and 300mile race event, and as I told people who thought me crazy, I was one of the sanest racers. The other draw for this race was that Derrick Spafford. About 10 days before the race, and just as I started my taper I started getting the dreaded scratchy throat, and Kim was getting it too. Taper Flu? The weather at this point was perfect for a winter race, not the stup...

Training to find the Edge: Sulphur Springs 2011 – 50 Mile Race Report
http://davidrockandice.blogspot.com/2011/06/sulphur-springs-2011-50-mile-race.html
Training to find the Edge. Wednesday, June 1, 2011. Sulphur Springs 2011 – 50 Mile Race Report. After finishing my first 50 mile race at Haliburton last year, I knew I had discovered a magical distance. As running for 10hrs and 50 miles gave me such a rush of accomplishment and satisfaction, I was itching to run another. So, I started laying plans for a spring 50 miler. I let Derrick know what I wanted to run, so then the question became where? Fall, Winter, Spring training went well. I did two pre-races...

Training to find the Edge: June 2012
http://davidrockandice.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Training to find the Edge. Monday, June 4, 2012. Sulphur Springs 100mile Race Report. I remember a few years ago after I finished my first 50km race, someone asked me if I would ever attempt to run a 100mile race. My response was “Not a chance, those people are nuts running all day and night”. Well that came back to bite me. Looking a little scared before the start. Start – Loop1. Loop 3 and 4. So my original lofty goal was to finish the first 50miles in 9hrs and here I was a good 15min ahead. So, I ...

Training to find the Edge: November 2011
http://davidrockandice.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Training to find the Edge. Tuesday, November 29, 2011. JFK 50 Mile Race Report – November 2011. Best three words to describe how this race went, but before I get into the details a little history is needed. I remember after my 2. Kim and I drove down on Thursday so we had Friday to pre-drive the check points (where she would meet me as my handler) before the race. It was a good thing we did because a couple of the check points were pretty remote and it made her task a little easier on race day. I wasn...
