When I started running these trail races was when I tried my hardest to get rid of this excess weight because after a few miles it does wear on you. So I've been trying to get off as much as I can. My wife and son are trying to go barefoot and actually my son Errin has ran races barefoot. I learn so much from the barefoot community on how to run and run properly. <br /> THanks so much for you comments it does mean alot to me to read your words. I hope to see you out there and good luck on your new journey to lose the weight and join us crazies again! Hope to see you soon!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4016582606620013331.post-1070471576443632212012-02-15T18:13:52.006-08:002012-02-15T18:13:52.006-08:00Awesome, motivating, awe-inspiring report that act...Awesome, motivating, awe-inspiring report that actually teleported me to the foot of Los Pinos to engage in excruciating ecstasy of the beast. After marathoning in Houston from 1999(180lbs), I had a good time with Tall Pines Trail Runners led by Rick Lewis in Austin, and only then got a whiff of what you have tasted. I've finished a few 50 milers (Grasslands, 2 Oceans, Om die Dam, Longtom) and have attempted 3 100 milers (LT100, AR100 and Rote66-100) but never meet cuttoff times, I'm mostly a racewalker, but love to sprint downhills. I was blessed to crew at Badwater for Jan Reyerse(2002) and Anita Fromm(2003), and look forward to do it soon. I did start barefoot running and Bikram Yoga when in SanFrancisco in 2004 and now don't train with shoes. My last 2 marathons were in Indianapolis 2009/2010, weight now (226lbs), sore left knee, hamstring prvent bikram yoga.<br /><br />Your writing has inspired me to enter races again and return to bikram yoga. I want to experience the thrills, danger, pain, euphoria again. I also want to get my weight down 50lbs back to 170 lbs, my weight before the accident and coma.acromonkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05549342997072007052noreply@blogger.com
