Listers, I've just emailed out the 2007 MTN RNR schedule. The MTN RNR trail runs are no fee, no aid, no award format and provide a chance for like minded...
Hello, I was very lucky to get into Hardrock. So now I have a couple of questions. I am roadrunner with 56 ultra races and 6 multi day races. I did long...
... The best training you can do is on the course itself. Join the course marking parties starting about 2 weeks before the race. Especially train on the...
... Thanks Matt for your answers, I forgot to tell that I will be in Ouray for a week in mid May and probably 2-3 days around 19 June. Is that to early for the...
... There won't be any flags until later, but you can explore the course. There will still be lots of snow at the higher elevations in May. -- Matt Mahoney,...

All, Here it is. The Mineral Creek Snotel web site provides a graphic showing the past two years compared to normal at: ...
I'm booking flights from Oz to the US and then on to Silverton but was wondering if I could call on some more local knowledge. I am running Western States in...
Andy, You can fly into either Denver airport or the Albuquerque, NM airport. Both are around a 5-6 hour drive from Silverton. I know there is a small shuttle...

Andy Reno, Nevada may be your best bet. Las Vegas is OK, too. There is a drive back into the sierra from both cities so it is a toss up.You could fly into LA...

Just thought that I would let folks know that we are in need of a Town Adminsitrator as well as a City Planner. The planner is a full time position that is...
Andy You might want to check America West schedules. They used to have a flight from Reno to Phoenix and they have a flight from Phoenix to Telluride. (About...
Hello everybody, yesterday I started to include rivercrossings into by running training. After a few steps I was in waist deep water. In, what I thought,...
But Mineral Creek could be up to your crotch, depending on the runoff status on race day. It was like that year before last. Nevertheless, not too difficult...
oh, darn, I was going to tell him we all don wetsuits before the river crossings... I do remember crossing the Uncompaghre one year, it was just shortly after...
You guys are killin' me. There's also (now) a bridge over whatever-raging-torrent-that-is which totally soaks your ingress and egress to the Sherman Aid...
Thanks for all your answers. So I don't have to buy myself a wetsuit ;-) and can instead invest in some gels for the race. What are you guys eating between the...
... I guess if you can finish in 26 hours like Karl Meltzer you could do the whole thing on gels, but the rest of us will be out there a little longer. How...
... I read the interview in ultrarunning about Karl. He said, that he also eats gels during training runs. His argument was that its better to eat gels because...
Okay, Matt, leave the nice man alone.... :-) what you have to understand, Markus, is that Matt is a minimalist.. most of us prefer to carry a bit more with us....
... Well, it is true I always run without socks. Your feet dry faster that way. Also, the lighter the shoes, the better. And it is true I had a $2 light at ...

well, I know they had some at Grouse, and probably at Sherman, Ouray and Telluride as well. If we have Sammy cooking for us again this year, you can bet...
