So cool and a very SMART hire by Adidas as you are a paramount ambassador for ALL types of running! <br /><br />You just got another Runtastic signup (free version for now). I've just been using the Polar Flow app as I pretty much abandoned Stava a good long time ago (always chasing ghosts there...not enough mental discipline to not chase silly medals all the time). Hope you and family stay in good health and if you're ever back running on trails at Tahoe, and want company, ping me...I'll try and keep up as long as I can!<br /><br />~Darren<br /><br />http://www.atrailrunnersblog.com/2012/01/inaugural-brooks-falls-50k.html (the "old days")Darrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16653881749845270757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860166.post-47106036971490399112021-01-19T08:53:54.683-08:002021-01-19T08:53:54.683-08:00I just wanted to say thank you for writing this bl...I just wanted to say thank you for writing this blog post, and to the others for their thoughts. I've found it really interesting reading through everything. This is a difficult topic to research realistically, so it's nice to hear real world experiences. I run 90-100km a week, training pretty hard for 10k and HM, and have often wondered if my 20 units a week is holding me back. My problem is that I really don't like tea or coffee and I can't even sniff herbal tea without feeling sick (literally, not metaphorically!), so if I stop alcohol I'm not left with much. Fruit juice is too carb heavy and expensive; milk is lovely, but I think I might be at my sensible limit already for that; non-alcoholic beer is ok. So far I have three days of no alcohol a week and I don't drink during taper weeks. I'll post back if I try a longer stretch!Rob Manserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03698026708578469022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860166.post-84949588925150062552021-01-03T17:44:09.540-08:002021-01-03T17:44:09.540-08:00Happy 2021, yes can't wait to get out there. ...Happy 2021, yes can't wait to get out there.

You mentioned me in a 2004 race.<br /><br />I google myself once every couple years... to help self-motivate me by reminiscing about my running days up in the Bay. It worked again. I will find myself up in a magical and misty trail, soon... just like that day in 2004.

I have been to Austria several times and put many miles alongside the Danube. Typically I visit Pochlarn when over there which I believe is just down the river from Linz. Will check back often as I enjoy good writing (and learning new words). <br />Cheers! <br />Doug Holscher Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17017690812012936340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860166.post-50451006557862827592020-02-07T14:55:48.708-08:002020-02-07T14:55:48.708-08:00Double Yay!Double Yay!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860166.post-38110043721977262952020-02-06T13:19:39.403-08:002020-02-06T13:19:39.403-08:00Yay!Yay!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14935628537606983648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8860166.post-71671506142053195242020-01-27T10:00:35.343-08:002020-01-27T10:00:35.343-08:00So happy you’re back blogging!
