With spring racing season safely behind us, we know you’ve already got fall races on the brain.  If you’re looking for a change in your training, Brian Mackenzie, creator of the Crossfit Endurance program, and author of Power, Speed, Endurance: A skill based approach to endurance training, tells iRun why it might pay to shake up your routine.

Brian Mackenzie, pioneer of CrossFit Endurance, he says wasn’t always as strong as he is today. It’s especially hard to believe since the Ironman and ultra marathoner was a former competitive weight lifter in his teens. But he swears by it – and even credits his first discouraging triathlon experience, due to a lack of strength.

“It was a humbling experience that pushed me for more so I signed up for a half Ironman the next day.”

He definitely doesn’t lack strength in spirit. The California native has built the crossfit endurance empire around strength. He says that strength and a fear of change keep runners, particularly women, way from this type of training.

“There’s a big misconception, especially within the female crowd, of what looks good. This ‘skinny is cute thing’ has really destroyed that. The fact is, women should not be bone ass skinny alien looking, they should be strong. It doesn’t mean they should be body builders, but that misconception has really driven the way women train. Women think they’re going to be all jacked up… but that’s literally impossible if you’re doing the aerobic work as well.”

Mackenzie, a professional coach and trainer of ultra athletes and runners since 2002, says crossfit endurance is not just the answer for women, but for 99% of runners. The regime, which is about eliminating unnecessary volume of training while increasing intensity, has been criticized by some athletes and coaches in the endurance world who think that volume is key if you are training for the longer races. Mackenzie disagrees. He says people are largely afraid of change – but it’s the change especially within the intensity and volume of training that can produce the largest results for endurance runners.

“We take a lot of flack, we see a lot of people in the endurance world, who get angry with what we’re doing. The fact is we’re taking casual people who are just plotting away at something, and don’t have any real structure to it, it’s just a “build up some volume type of thing” and we’re making them a lot stronger, a lot fitter and a lot faster.”

According to Mackenzie, distance running isn’t just about running – which sounds counterintuitive if you don’t understand what he’s getting at.

“The fact is, people think running is just lacing up your shoes, and heading out the door and running – and it’s not – if it were, injury rates wouldn’t be at 75% and above. That’s just a toll tail sign that something’s not right.”

CrossFit Endurance programming takes into consideration the effect that power and speed has on being able to produce a greater capacity for distance – something that Mackenzie says can also have a positive effect on recovery time, reducing injury rate and creating a more sustainable performance curve.

While most people want to improve and make progress, Mackenzie says has this starts with confronting your fears and weaknesses.

He believes in the power of change so much so that he had “I’m Unscared” tattooed across his knuckles. It’s his reminder and credo to continually challenge convention and himself. This is the mentality that led him to develop a programme that now sees 7,000 to 15,000 search engine hits per day on the Crossfit Endurance website.

In the many races that followed his first failed attempt at triathlon, Mackenzie observed despite the fact he was running long distances and competing on a regular basis, he was still unable to manage a simple strength task like squats. When challenged by a friend he came away discouraged because he had become so weak. Encouraged by his own failure, he began piling strength workouts into his ultra marathon training regime.

“I was crazy about kettle bells. I got into kettle bells early on, 2003 – 2004. The kettle bell scene led me to my first CrossFit work out.”

From that point he started to see the benefits that strengthening and conditioning was having on his ability to run.

“I was getting stronger and faster –  I felt better when I ran. And it wasn’t just my experience it was every athlete that I was working with.”

The resulting program was CrossFit Endurance – a training regime that focuses on combing all the elements Mckenzie found helped him get stronger, specifically those which highlighted his own weaknesses. This is the part that Mackenzie says people find the most intimidating.

“People are so afraid of CrossFit, and they think it’s this big scary thing. The fact is, CrossFit is about movement mostly. And moving with intensity.”

Mackenzie says endurance runners can benefit from this system because it produces greater results in a shorter period of time.

“You can do really slow, long runs and take the time to develop that aerobic base, or you can start doing skill work, which we implement and do interval work on top of doing some tempo and interval run stuff. And you’re going to develop that aerobic system a lot more efficiently.”

CrossFit Endurance workouts are designed for runners. They differ from the traditional CrossFit regime in that it takes into account the fact that the athlete will have a run that day as well.

Mackenzie says that one of the beautiful things about the CrossFit Endurance programme is that it can be scaled to the particular athlete – in fact that’s it strongest element and why so many people who do the routine see results quickly. When asked if the programme was only for the die hard, elite athletes he said that is exactly what it is not.

“Elite training programs don’t exist on the internet. That’s what takes place in person with a coach.”

According to MacKenzie, CrossFit Endurance is is designed for the “weekend warrior” or the typical person who wants to work out and take care of themselves. The trick is to find a CrossFit program which is scaled to your particular level of fitness, so you don’t jump into the routine, and burn out before you manage to see results.

If you’re skeptical, Mackenzie says it actually comes down to trying the program out for a bit to see if it’s for you.

“It’s not for everybody, but it’s designed for everybody. That’s a fact.”

“For a friend with an understanding heart is worth no less than a brother”
HOMER

GRANT:  Vicky, it’s been awhile how are you?

VICKY: I’m good Grant.  I’m settled down. I’m getting married as you know.  The practice is going well and I’ve been down my fair share of charitable activities.

GRANT: I’m happy to hear it.  Since you’ve moved away it’s been more difficult to stay in touch.  It’s been more challening of course to keep the blog going.

VICKY:  So true.  What have you been up to?

GRANT: Well I did have the opportunity to sit down with our old friend Malcolm Anderson the other day.  We wrote a couple of blog posts about his book The Messengers a couple of years ago and interviewed him.  We also wrote about him in the magazine.  That book is truly awesome.  It’s a collection of interviews he’s done with runners with more than 100 marathons under their belts.

VICKY: He’s a great guy who’s spent a lot of time in the running community and helping to celebrate it.

GRANT:  Yes.  I love his writing too.  The Messengers is one of my favorite books and now I’m reading one of his earlier books, “A Marathon Odyssey“.

VICKY: Is it as good as The Messengers?

GRANT: Yes, in many ways.  It’s focussed on his first three marathons.  It reads a lot like a journal and it reminds me a lot of Haruki Murakami’s book What I Talk About When I Talk About Running.  Malcolm has such a tremendous wit.  Almost every paragraph includes a sly joke.  The book is really a lot of fun and it’s great to read the thoughts of an articulate person who is experiencing running and it’s challenges.

VICKY:  What did you ask him about?

GRANT:  Well, the book is focused on the first three marathons he ran and I was curious why he chose those ones in particular.

MALCOLM:  A friend and I had seen the Goofy Challenge and decided to try it.  Then, one night looking at the various marathons around on the internet I noticed Athens a couple months sooner.  I’d been reading a lot about marathon running and figured that it would be kind of neat to write about the experiences of me training for and running in, both marathon events, and tracing the evolution of marathon running at the same time.  They were a bit like bookends.  I figured I should also attempt one in between the two of them and the Cayman’s leapt out at me.  And it was perfect because it’s your classic destination marathon.

GRANT:  How many marathons have you now run?

MALCOLM: Late 40s – Should have 50 sometime in the fall.

VICKY: Amazing.

GRANT: Yeah.  For those who have read The Messengers it’s really cool to see Malcolm transform himself into one of these people.  I’m sure he’ll get to 100 marathons at some point.  I asked him what are his favourites.

MALCOLM:  MANY!!  Here’s a few ….

Brathay Marathon around Lake Windermere in the Lake District, England

Comrades Ultra, South Africa

Boston (this year got stopped at mile 25)

Connemara Marathon, Ireland

Niagara on the Lake

Yakima, Washington State

GRANT: And what remains on your bucket list?

MALCOLM:  Still many more.  Berlin, Haliburton 100 Miler, Badwater, Comrades again

VICKY: Comrades!  You wanted to do that too didn’t you?

GRANT: Yes.  For sure.  The other thing which I don’t think we’ve written about before is Malcolm’s involvement with a worldwide charity run, Run For Tomorrow.  http://www.r4t.org  Run for Tomorrow is a continuous relay-style run around the world by a team of experienced marathon runners. Each member of the team runs a marathon distance (26.2 miles/ 42.2 km) and passes the baton to the next runner. Through 30 countries and for 200 days, the baton never stops moving.

The overall goal of R4T is to improve the health and well-being of individuals around the world.  R4T seeks to:

• Educate children and adults about the importance of healthy living and exercise, and
• Encourage and inspire them to commit to making positive changes in their own lives.
• Raise awareness and support for people with diabetes, heart and stroke conditions and those who are in poverty.

I asked him about the preparations.

MALCOLM:  Great.  Start date of April 2014 from Ottawa.  We return to Ottawa in October 2014.  We have 10 amazing distance runners from 7 different countries in the Run for Tomorrow Team.  We’re getting interest from around the world.  Very exciting.  Please visit the website (listed above) or the Facebook page: Run for Tomorrow (R4T)

VICKY: Of all the people we’ve met on our iRun journey Malcolm has got to be one of the most inspiring.

GRANT:  For sure.  No one helps me get my running shoes on quite like him and nobody makes me want to write a blog post more than him.

VICKY: But.

GRANT: But.

VICKY: But its time for us to move on.

GRANT: Agreed.  We’ve enjoyed our time with iRun.  There are a lot of good people associated with iRun and it starts with Mark Sutcliffe.

VICKY:  It’s been a great run (pardon the pun), but for a variety of reasons it’s best for us to move on.

GRANT: We want to thank everyone, from Mark to Malcolm, Karen Karnis, Lisa Georges and all the iRun team for inviting us on board.

VICKY: And we want to wish the whole iRun team the best of luck and I’m sure we’ll see you out there at events.  Au revoir to you.

GRANT: Finally we should thank the readers and by that I mean the people who clicked on this by accident.  Run long and prosper….

Ahhh…1979.

The rings of Jupiter were discovered by the Voyager I space probe, and Pioneer 11 was the first spacecraft to visit Saturn.

President Carter was attacked by a swamp rabbit while fishing, Margaret Thatcher became the first female prime minister of Britain, and Joe Clark became Canada’s youngest prime minister.

ESPN, the first cable sports channel was launched after the Montreal Canadiens won the Stanley Cup, but before the Pittsburgh Pirates won the World Series.

McDonald’s introduced the Happy Meal, the Sony Walkman hit the streets of Japan for the first time and Star Trek: the Motion Picture hit the big screen.

Smallpox was declared eradicated.

And the first Manitoba Marathon was run.

Happy 35^th running, Manitoba Marathon!

By: Karen Karnis

Meet Andrew Douglas, a Brand Building Specialist for central Canada, covering the Eastern part of BC through to Winnipeg. We sat down to get to know a bit about the 23 year old native of Sarnia, ON, and here’s what we learned.

What is your educational and career background, before working for Mizuno?

I graduated from McMaster University in 2010 with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. While in school, and for almost a year after graduating, I worked at a running store called The Runner’s Den.

How did you become a Brand Building Specialist for Mizuno?

I ran varsity cross-country and track and field for McMaster and always found the most comfort in Mizuno shoes. My time at the Runner’s Den educated me about the brand and only increased my enthusiasm for the products. I would often get to chat with the local sales rep, Arnold Tse, in the store and he was the one that informed me of the Brand Building Specialist opportunity.

What do you do, exactly?

I do whatever my colleagues and I feel is necessary to increase awareness and knowledge about the brand, thereby promoting better sell through with our retailers. This often includes setting up a display booth at races or other key events, giving presentations about the technical aspects of our products, doing shoe demos with local run groups, or even just frequenting our accounts and helping out in any way I can (i.e. helping with sales, merchandising, stock counts, chatting with staff, etc.).

What are the benefits of being able to visit stores for Product Knowledge (PK) sessions?

Since Mizuno products are highly technical, if the staff are not comfortable with explaining the story to consumers then our stuff gets neglected. There is certainly a correlation between product knowledge and sales. When I return to a store after a PK session I see more confident staff, which leads to better sales through over time.

What is the best part of your job?

This job is great for so many reasons. I love the flexibility of my schedule, the travel, the people and the products.

What are your favourite Mizuno shoes?

The Wave Elixir has been in my arsenal for the longest. However, I recently ran in our new Wave Sayonara and I think it will be the winner. I also like my Ascends when I’m in the Rockies.

What up-and-coming shoes/apparel/technology are you most excited about?

I am most excited for the next instalment in our Wave Evo series – the Ferrus. My main running passion since I’ve moved to Alberta has been trail running in Banff and the surrounding area. The design of the Ferrus looks perfect for this environment. I feel like it will just disappear from my foot.

How old were you when you started running? How did you get into it?

I started running when I was in grade 3. I went out for my school’s cross-country team and have been hooked ever since.

What are your goals?

I got my fix of high-level competition in high school and University. As of now I am just looking to stay fit and run because I love the feeling it gives me. I don’t have any particular race goals at this point.

When Christina Menssen started her blog, The Athletarian, she didn’t think anyone would read it. She started it because she loved to spend time reading other people’s blogs, and thought that maybe she would be more diligent tracking her training – after all, telling stories and posting pictures was much more fun than scratching numbers in a notebook.

The now-27-year old fitness fanatic from Toronto really had no idea that in two years she would have thousands of readers and over 6,500 Likes on her blog’s facebook page. “One of the blogs I follow, Hungry Runner Girl, has thousands of fans – I thought it was so crazy how companies would send her shoes to try. Then Mizuno contacted me out of the blue, and it’s all very surreal,” says Menssen.

Menssen started running in her first year of university because the University of Toronto had a gym that was free for students to use. “I didn’t know how to use any of the equipment, but it had an indoor track,” she laughs. Her first race was a 10K, which she finished in 58 minutes – and she’s never looked back.

“I love running because it’s time to myself,” she says. “You can lace up and run, and have nobody around you for as long as you want.” As a high school teacher who spends her days surrounded by people, she finds running to be a welcome break. “I also love challenging myself to different distances and faster times,” she adds. “I love that feeling of seeing the clock and seeing that new, faster time.”

Menssen is also a vegetarian – hence the name of her blog. She used to eat meat, but not all the time. Then she watched a few documentaries on the food industry that changed her whole outlook on food. “I thought, I don’t eat a lot of meat anyway, so it wouldn’t be a big deal to stop entirely,” she says.

She was pleasantly surprised to find she felt better overall, and more energized on her runs, after cutting out meat. She’s also cut back a lot on dairy after testing her theory – in weeks where she ate a lot of dairy, she found she felt more sluggish and her runs were slower. “I eat mostly plant-based foods now, but there are a few things I am not willing to give up completely, like ice cream,” she laughs.

Mizuno contacted Menssen because they loved her blog and discovered she was running in Mizuno Wave Elixirs. Now she’s excited to have the opportunity to try out a few other models, including the Musha. “Michelle Clarke is going to be working with me and she’s going to show me how to use the different types of shoes for different types of workouts,” she says.

Menssen met Clarke, also a Mizuno athlete, at a meet-up arranged by a fellow blogger, and is excited to have her help while working toward her goals for the year, including a sub-1:44 half marathon, and sub-4:00 marathon. “The best thing about blogging are the connections you make,” says Menssen. She’s made friends all over and met people she otherwise never would have.

When asked why people love her blog, she’s humble. “I don’t know why people want to read it,” she says, “but my best guess is that it’s because I keep it real. I never pretend I am not sore after a race, or that I don’t eat pizza – I blog the way I talk to friends, and readers often say ‘You’re so normal!’”

As runners, we know how to work hard in training, but do we know how to recover in order to reap the benefits of our efforts?  When it comes to running, more intensity is not always better.  Dr. Neil Eves is an Associate Professor in Exercise Physiology at UBC Okanagan and has worked with multiple Canadian national teams.  He has extensive experience monitoring how elite endurance athletes recover from the stresses their training imposes on them and has lots to share to help the average runner succeed in achieving proper recovery.

Recovery is Important for Performance

High intensity training challenges the body to adapt to and handle ever-increasing training demands.  Runners who engage in higher intensity workouts, followed by easier runs, cross training sessions or rest, often see improvements in their racing performance.  This is because the body is given the chance to adapt to the training stimulus of the higher intensity bout.  Dr. Eves warns that not enough recovery between workouts can eventually lead to overtraining and that hard workouts “come at a cost, as fatigue is the runner’s enemy when it comes to being able to continually perform in workouts and competition.”

The Physiology of Recovery

“During exercise the body utilizes energy reserves, creates unwanted byproducts of energy metabolism (i.e. lactic acid) and can develop micro-damage to tissues that all need to be restored, removed and repaired over time.”  During recovery, our bodies seek to undo the stress and adapt to future loading of stress.  Dr. Eves explains that depending on how hard we worked this process could be from a couple minutes to many days.

Research has yet to define how much time is required for recovery to occur, and this is due to the individual differences in the rate of recovery between runners.  According to Dr. Eves, “recovery times vary depending on the amount of training stress accumulated, the initial fitness of the athlete, the quality of the rest and recovery performed, the quality of sleep and the quality of nutrition the athlete gets, etc.”   Generally speaking though, one to two days of either light running or cross training will get you ready for your next key workout if you didn’t over-extend yourself in the prior workout.

Monitoring Recovery

Recovery is important for all athletes and can sometimes be more of a problem for the recreational athlete, especially those planning and monitoring their own training.  Listening to one’s body is step one.  “If you are becoming lethargic and loosing the drive to train, if you are tired all the time, waking up more frequently at night, etc., then you are most likely not managing stress well.”

“A key element to monitoring and managing training stress is to realize that exercise is only one form of stress and family, job, financial and relationship stress, etc. all add up on top of the training.”  Thus, it’s recommended that runners take these factors into consideration when planning when they will perform their key workouts.  A rule of thumb is to ensure your ‘easy’ or ‘rest’ days truly are that, and aren’t confounded by other life stressors.

Try This At Home

A simple monitoring technique to determine readiness for a hard workout session is monitoring morning resting heart rate (RHR).  Immediately upon waking, while lying in bed, take your RHR (this usually fluctuates naturally by ~3 beats/min each day and should remain stable or even decline slightly if you’re recovering and adapting appropriately to the training load).  Following a period of hard training, if RHR has increased by more than 5-6 beats/min, you may be accumulating stress and additional recovery strategies or better training sequencing is needed to avoid excessive fatigue.

Additionally, many upper end heart-rate monitors are now offering a heart rate variability (HRV) measurement, which is growing in popularity for optimizing training and recovery.  HRV is the difference in time between consecutive heartbeats.  Dr. Eves explains how you can use tool effectively to help monitor your training:

• HRV is measured while lying in bed, immediate upon waking.  An appropriately trained and well-rested individual will have considerable HRV, while an over-reached or under-recovered athlete would have more uniform beats (i.e. less HRV).
• Although this is an attractive monitoring technique, it should be noted that there is considerable variation between individuals and between days and there are a number of factors, which can affect daily HRV.
• Thus, an individual should perform multiple HRV measures first during the transition phase or off-season to gain a ‘baseline’ reading of their individual HRV.  An ‘upper limit’ can be determined after the end of a 2-3 week high volume training phase.
• A continuous-monitoring approach allows one to understand their ‘normal response’ to a period of recovery or significant training stimulus and then comparisons throughout the rest of the season can be made in relation to these responses.

In summary, Dr. Eves presents the idea that “it’s often believed by many athletes and coaches that ‘a day not training is a day wasted’ but in the science of training, quality rest and recovery is essential for optimum performance.  It is therefore important to change this philosophy and consider rest and recovery as training. “

Happy Running!

If you were planning on registering for the 2013 Canada Army Run, I hope you’ve already done so because it’s officially full!

It filled up nearly a month faster then it did last year when the event sold out at the end of June. This year organizers added 4,000 extra spots to accommodate demand for a race that has quickly become Ottawa’s premiere fall running event.

Minister of National Defence, Peter MacKay, said that fact that the race has filled up so quickly, even with the extra spaces, sends a message to those men and women who make sacrifices for our country.

“Every day, at home and abroad, members of the Canadian Armed Forces are asked to make sacrifices. I’m delighted that Canada Army Run has sold out again and that so many Canadians will take advantage of this unique opportunity to personally thank our men and women in uniform for all they do to keep us safe,” said MacKay.

On Sunday, September 22, 12,000 people will be taking to the streets of Ottawa to run, walk or roll in the 5 km race, and 10,000 people are signed up to take part in the half marathon event. That’s a total of 22,000 people participating in a run that supports the Military Families Fund and Soldier On. Last year the Army Run raised over $250,000 for both charities.

Commander of the Canadian Army, Lieutenant-General Peter Devlin said that the support people show for members of the military through this run, is the event’s most important element.

“I take immense pride in the growing popularity of this event and the tremendous support that Canadians continue to show our soldiers, who are always ready and hard at work on their behalf. Knowing we have the support of our family, friends, community, and country is so important both for morale and operational effectiveness. We are stronger for it,” said Devlin.

Good luck to all those who are registered to run in this year’s race and thanks for staying Up to Speed!

I’m hesitating to write this race review. I’m pausing because it was a gem of race and although it deserves to grow, I don’t want it to get too big and lose its compelling charm. The kicker, however, is that I didn’t run this race – my wife did. This was the second annual Niagara Falls Women’s Half Marathon and I never had so much fun at a race I didn’t run.

It Starts With the Portapotty

The packet pickup was held at what would be the start and finish area of the race. This gave us a good preview in terms of arrival logistics and parking. As we entered the area, the first thing we noticed were the portapotties – lots of them. Women-friendly-don’t-have-to-wait-as-long-in-line amounts of portapotties.

Being the curious male that I am, I snuck into one of them (I had to go, ok?) and marveled at the nice soaps and scented sprays provided within. There were also some potted plants where the, ahem, men would normally go along with a cute sign advising occupants not to “water the plants.” By the way, my apologies to the next occupant for leaving the toilet seat up (habit).

A Pink Packet Worth Picking Up

Packet pickup was smooth, efficient and full of goodies. The theme of “empowered” was emblazoned on the pink packet bag as well as on the front of the Brooks technical race shirts. The shirts came in your choice of green or blue (how cool is that?) and the race logo was smartly printed on the back to prevent having too much ink on front which would block ventilation. The kit included a plethora of samples including: shampoo, makeup, mouthwash, a toothbrush and a bottle of wine. I double checked to see if the wine was to be used as a sports drink but it was not advised.

Also at the packet pickup was one of the most inspirational and influential female runners in history, Kathrine Switzer. Kathrine was the first woman to run the Boston Marathon when women weren’t allowed to run in endurance races. She registered using her initials and when she was spotted on the course, the race director famously tried to pull her off the course. Kathrine ultimately prevailed and finished the race and helped to open the doors for female athletes to participate and compete in marathons. Participants were given the opportunity to meet Kathrine and take pictures with her.

The Cheer of the Niagara River

The course was a flat, scenic run along the Niagara River. The runners went down the river, past the falls and the main Clifton Hill tourist area, made a u-turn back to pass the falls again, then continued back along the river up past the start, and made another u-turn to go down the river back to the start which also served as the finish. Although crowd support was sparse, the stunning beauty of the river provided the inspiration for runners to keep going. There was some entertainment along the way such as a harpist and a “muscle beach” area where some men were pumping iron (I don’t know why I wasn’t invited to do this ). Kathrine Switzer was also on the course high-fiving and encouraging all the runners.  A really nice aspect of this double out and back course is the fact that you can see your other running friends at least once or twice as you run and can cheer them on.

The Finishing Touches

In keeping with the sly humour of the race, the finish was referred to as the “Finish Wine” and the emcee did an excellent job of creatively encouraging and announcing each runner as she crossed the finish. The medals were a bright and colourful pink and sported a unique design from the previous year. Food boxes were provided to each runner and there were bistro tables setup with tablecloths and flowers which provided the most elegant post-race dining venue I had ever seen.

Whimsical with a Purpose

This race is a whimsy – from “Very Important Pee-ers” (VIP) portapotties, to “voluncheer” t-shirts, to cold, wet towels at the finish, this is a well thought out event that’s more than a race. One of the most significant elements of this race is that funds are raised for the Women’s Place of South Niagara which provides shelter for women and children experiencing abuse. For my wife, she felt great to be a part of contributing to a local and worthwhile cause.

The Champ

This race was my wife’s first half-marathon – she had done a couple of 10K races before and was a little bit nervous about covering the distance. The thoughtfulness and the organization of this race, however, empowered her to enjoy the run. I was and am so proud of her for finishing strong and am truly glad (and a little jealous) that she had the opportunity to do this distance at such a great event. My wife is already talking about next year and thinking about taking advantage of the early bird registration deal that is on til June 30^th.

Channeling my inner woman,

Andrew
