For years I have wanted to do a trail run but the only ones I have done are the Mr.Toad's 20k and the Rio Bravo 10 miler and they are not really trail runs. Recently I started hiking and though I like doing it, I don't like having to carry all the gear and worrying about water and food out in the wilds. So I surmised that a real trail run would be the best of both worlds.

After doing this race, I proved my prediction because I really enjoyed the event. The Pacific Coast Trail people know how to put on an event. I only wish they had more races in the Southern California area because traveling to Northern California can get expensive.

I picked this race this summer and told my Bakersfield Distance Projecters about it and many were up for the challenge. In the end, eight of us decided to do the event and we put together a car pool to get there. Though it was only 130 miles away, we decided to meet at Bagels & Blenderz at 5am so we would be there in plenty of time for the 8:30am start.

The week leading up to the race went well but news of raining being forecast for the weekend made all of even more nervous. We had not done a trail run and adding mud and water to the mix made the idea even more daunting. The day before the Sunday event it rained quite a bit and we got wet at the Killa Hilla run that morning while others got wet or cold at the Turkey Trot.

That night I was awaken in the middle of the night by the rain pouring off my roof and I thought this is not a good sign. But when I got up at 4am, the sky was clear and there was a brilliant full moon in the sky. I loaded up my van and headed to Del Taco to have an early breakfast.

Now most would say "Del Taco?" but for me it works. I get a steak and egg burrito and I am good to go. Awhile back, I heard someone say that ultra running is more of an eating contest than a running contest and I believe that is true. Now today's 30k is not an ultra but I was going to be out there for 5 hours and you can not go that long unless you eat and drink properly.

So in training I am like a bear, bears are omnivores and so am I. I experiment with eating all kinds of things so that my body can handle what ever I throw at it. In a race, you do not know what they are serving at the aid stations and if you did, they might run out of it or it might taste awful. Before a long run, I fuel up on all kinds of things and have found that a regular meal works for me.

For instance before I run the Los Angeles marathon, I eat a Tommie's chili burger at two or three am and it has served me well during the race. So at 4:30am, I hit the drive-thru at Del Taco and there was a line. The van in front of me took forever to order and then their order took forever to make. They got six cokes, three coffee drinks and three bags of food! Guess somebody was hungry. Finally I got my food and headed to Bagels to meet my BDPers.

Because of my food pit-stop, I was not the first there and in a few minutes everyone was there. We loaded into Lisa and Denni's SUVs and headed off for our adventure. Most of the talk was about the weather and what were we getting ourselves into. As we drove by Frazier Park, it started to rain and then it snowed a bit. Fortunately once we went over the Tejon Pass, the precipitation disappeared for the day.

In Filmore, we made a pit-stop at the Starbucks and then we were on our way again. After some GPS meanderings through Oxnard, we finally made it to the race around 7:30am and parked on the PCH. The ocean was stormy but the skies were clear. When we got out of the car it was cold but I expected it to warm up by race start.

What was nice was the start and number pickup was right at the entrance of the park which was right off of PCH. So we grabbed our numbers and then went back to the cars to figure out what we would wear for the run. I think most of us guessed right and were glad the rain stayed away for the day.

By now it was time for the start so we headed back to the park and got ready for our first real trail run to begin. Everyone liked how laid back the start was and then we were off. We only got a little ways up the trail before we hit a traffic jam. There was at least 40 in front of us and they were not moving. I thought perhaps it was a creek crossing bit found out it was just a gully with a little mud.

The good thing is it let me catch my breathe and look at where we were headed and it looked all up hill. The first miles were the most technical and the steepest too. I knew coming down this section was going to be tricky and going up was not a piece of cake either. I also saw the runners thinning out in a line and headed to a very tall peak and knew this was going to be a long climb.

By this time most of my BDPers were out of sight and I would not see them again till the finish. Lisa was ahead of me and Diana was right behind him. It was easy to keep track of Lisa because of her hair that was the only color out there besides the orange trail ribbons. The trail was single track for the most part and only muddy in spots.

Which was good, because we needed all the traction we could get since all we were doing was climbing. After a number of miles we reached the top and were treated to a great view of the coast line and a flat/slightly downhill trail too. So after doing mile one in 17:53, mile two in 16:47 and mile 3 in 18:44, I finally got to run more than I walked. Miles 4,5, and 6 were done in 12:50,13:43 and 13:44.

Miles 5 and 6 were through a large grass meadow which reminded me of Jurassic Park and I kept looking for dinosaurs. By now Diana had caught me and was leading the way. We were both trying to catch Lisa but I knew soon we would lose sight of her when we hit the technical downhill section that we had earlier climbed up.

I stayed with Diana for a while in this section but then she told me to go ahead so I did. Here is where I had wished I had wore my trail shoes because the rocks hurt me feet and I kicked quite a few too. Plus now it started to feel warm out and I wished I had worn my camelbak. I always train with it but at races, I like the light feeling I get by not wearing it. Usually I can get by carrying a bottle and refilling it at aid stations but here the aid stations were 6 to 7 miles apart.

Plus i was trying to take pictures and having a camera in one hand and a bottle in the other was not a good idea. I almost fell a couple times but managed to stay on my feet. I was alone during this section and mile 7 was done in 15:23. But at least I was at the aid station. They had all sorts of food but I just refilled my bottle and took off.

Over the summer I have been listening to the Trail Slammer pod casts and he warned about lingering to long at aid stations so I heeded his advice. He ran one ultra that had chip timing at the aid stations and was amazed to find out how much time he stayed at aid stations during an ultra. his pod cast is where I heard about ultras being eating contests btw.

Now the course was going on the second longer loop (11 miles or so) and we would get to do two more 1200 foot climbs. As I head up the first climb, I could see Lisa with a group of runners and set off to catch them. This was made more difficult by the steady stream of faster runners coming done the single track as I was trying to go up. About half way up I caught up with her and then pressed on because I can not run downhill very fast.

I have the technique down but my size limits how fast I can go. I am like a Mack truck going down the Grapevine and I could easily be a runaway train if I do not brake myself. I did miles 8, 9, 10 and 11 in 16:38,17:17.17:11 and 17:11 and passed about 8 runners going up. The views on this single track were spectacular and at the top, one could see where we were going.

Here the single track became a fire road that was pretty steep but runnable. Unfortunately everyone I passed could run down it a lot faster than I could and they all passed me on the way down to the second aid station. Miles 11, 12 and 13 were run in 15:21, 13:21 and 11:57 and I was glad when we hit the flat road to the aid station where I caught up with Lisa and her friend.

We walked to the aid station where we were glad that we could refill our depleted bottles. There was plenty to eat too but I just grabbed a couple handfuls of salty stuff and took off. Lisa and the others looked like they were planning on staying a little longer but I knew I needed to get going.

As I headed up the road, I heard some shrieking and turned around and saw Lisa and her friend dancing away from something. I was hoping it was not a snake and later I found out it was a large spider. Soon after their encounter with a beast, I started up the beast on the course. We headed up fire trail to fire road and it was steep. I caught a couple people going up and felt good even though it was hard.

All the hiking at altitude this past summer made this course a lot easier. The trails were steep but having air to breathe is a big bonus. So once we got back on the fire road, I was able to increase my pace and catch a couple more runners. I needed to push the uphill because I knew I was going to get caught by many going back downhill to the finish.

too be continued ...

My Two Cities Experience:

Because I traveled so much to Fresno, when I coached cross country and track at Bakersfield High, I never really considered running this event. After doing the drive so many times, I could not see myself driving there for a marathon.

But this summer I got an odd email from the race directors. They asked me what the password was for the facebook page I made for their race last year. They thought it was their page. Anyways I gave them the page and they gave me an entry, so I figured I would run the race and I am glad I did.

I still hate the drive but the race is worth it because of amenities they give you and the great volunteers. Plus the race is a nice change of pace from the mega field races that I have been running at lately. The race let me pick up my number the morning of the event which was really nice too.

My day started at around 4am and when I headed to Fresno, despite the threat of rain and a really sore right leg. All the way I worried if my leg would hold up and if i would stay dry. Running in the rain in San Francisco was cool but Fresno not so much. Fortunately for me, I stayed dry and the leg did not bother me at all.

I got to Fresno a little before 6am and parked right near the start and watched the 50kers start before I went and got my race bib. There I got a nice hat and a tech shirt along with my bib and the timer chip. By now it was 6:30am and there was not that many around. It was so weird to be at a marathon with so many porta potties available. In fact during the race, they was always a free one available. So all you runners who need to make pit-stops might consider doing the Fresno Marathon.

At 6:45am I decided to go to the start line and was amazed how few of us were there. There ended up being 741 finishers but honestly, I felt I was running the BTC half marathon. Of course once I got going I really felt like I was on a fully supported training run because there were very few penguins out there.

Now my goal was to break 5:30 and maybe even try to run sub 12 minute pace the whole way. I knew the course would be fast because Fresno is pretty flat and the weather was going to be cool. But then I saw Jessica standing alone in our corral and asked her if she had run this race before.

That question changed my plans for the better and made my Fresno experience a lot better. She said this was her first marathon and the longest she had ever run was 12 miles. She was a Fresno State student and the plan had been for others to join her but they all bailed on her but she was determined to break 6 hours (so she could get the medal and the finisher's sweatshirt) and finish with a smile on her face.

Then the coach in me offered my pointers on achieving those goals. I told her to do the walk/run strategy and to go out easy and just keep moving forward no matter what. Plus she needed to keep hydrated and fueled up. Fortunately she had read Galloway's book and was familiar with some of the ideas I was suggesting. Then she asked me if she could tag along with me and i said that was great.

So the gun went off and in a few minutes we were basically on a training run together. There was no one around us for the most part. We kept to a one minute walk / four minute run pattern for most of the race and started our back and forth with a couple other runners. Throughout the day we caught and past and then got past the "Disney Girls. These two had their 5th year anniversary Disney half shirts on and gave us something to focus on.

The course was flat and went the same way for miles at times. The first part ran through a real nice upscale neighborhood before we got on the bike path to head to the quaint downtown Clovis. While we were on the bike path heading to Clovis the first 50kers ran by us and I high fived Ultra Man Dean Karnazes.

Then a little later I high fived Bakersfield speedster Chris Rodriquez who ran 3:10 (The fastest Bakersfield time of the day.) and Kayley Tobin (4:00) who was the second fastest Bakersfield women of the day. Kathyrn Turner was the fastest Bakersfield women of the day in a time of 3:33. Their bike path is a lot nicer then our bike path and the numerous tunnels offered some relief from the flatness of the path.

Finally we made it to old town Clovis which is a nice little city. As we moved along Jessica said they we were going to pass her favorite bar and so we stopped for a quick photo shoot. we were averaging 12:15 miles with our 1/4 pattern and for the most part it felt easy. We past the time chatting about running, college and family which helped take our minds off of how far we had to go and how lonely we were out there.

Now every aid station had tons of volunteers (usually 20 for the two of us) but there were not many spectators out there and few fellow runners. One group of spectators that we were grateful for where Alexis's fans. She was behind us and they were at four or five locations throughout cheering on all of us. They had matching shirts with each letter of Alexis's name on their shirts.

Plus we had the Disney Girls to pursue. As we headed back to Woodward park, I found out we were not going towards Fresno for the last ten miles instead we were heading out into the hills that looked like the area around Hart Park. We were going out and back for 5 miles on road that had two lanes one way and two lanes the other way. Our side of the road was very desolate while the other side had a lot of half marathons finishing the final miles of their race.

We were three and a half hours into our race and they were three hours into their run (I later found out that they started at 7:20 instead of 7:30 due to an error by the timing people). Jessica and I now wished they were on our side of the road so we would have some company and someone to focus on. Instead we just saw a lot of tired slow moving people, which was hard for me to see (I am a veteran marathoner) and must have been really hard on her because we had already run 4 miles further then she had ever run in her life.

We were still in the 12 minute range but our average was creeping slowly to 12:30 pace and I knew my sub 5:30 was in jeopardy. I knew coming back was going to be lonely and hard especially because it was slightly uphill and the road was slanted. By now we had to focus a lot more on moving forward and neither had the energy to talk much. The minute walk seemed shorter and shorter too.

After awhile we ran out of halfers and started to see more marathoners and 50kers and they did not look good either. These were the 4 hour to 5 hour runners and many were moving slowly and/or walking even slower. soon we found out why because the course started going downhill after mile 20. We were hoping to see the turn around but it was obscured by the curve of the road. This main hill was about as steep as the longer section of the Bakersfield Distance Project's Dump Run which after 20 miles of runing is not fun to run down.

As we were going down it, we noticed that everyone in front of us was walking up it. jessica asked me a couple time if we too could walk up it and I said we will see. She was still moving along well but her right hip was starting to bother her more and more. I was impressed that she kept up our relentless 1/4 strategy for so long. For never running more then 12 miles in her life she was doing quite well and we were passing people along the way.

Often at this point in the race, I am the fastest moving thing around because of all the miles I train and the marathon plus long walks I do before races. Few catch me in the last miles of a race and the ones I pass can not stay with me either but her was this college girl in her first marathon of her life running along with me. A few out there said I was lucky to have her pulling me along and there were a few times that I thought she would leave me.

Once we did the turn around we were relieved to be heading back to the finish but were dreading the HILL. we took some aid at the bottom and ran for awhile until we caught the Disney Girls. Then we walked and our current mile pace was in the fourteens and going higher. The one thing both of us noticed was that they hill was not as bad as it looked when we saw the faster runners walking up it. In fact as it flattened out we went back to the 1/4.

At around mile 22 though both of us started to feel sick to our stomachs at the same time. I expect this feeling but still hate it and get discouraged by it. I can not imagine how Jessica felt, we are so close to the finish but she is starting to feel ill and I know how that can lead to barely making it to the finish. The good thing was the road was flatter and going slightly downhill but the canter on it was ugly. Plus the new asphalt disappeared and the old road was hard.

I could feel every step and it felt like I was running on concrete. Amazingly we were moving faster then our average pace of around 12:30and we were catching some pretty fit and experienced marathoners and 50kers. No one was catching is btw. But now when we took our walk breaks I noticed that Jessica was having a hard time running again. Her hip was hurting and the hardest and the slant of the road were not helping.

We did a couple more 1/4 cycles until we got to mile 24. Then Jessica said she could not run any more. I knew this time would come but I hoped that we were close enough for her to stay with me for the rest of the way. But she instinctively knew that she needed to back off to insure that she finished or did not slow done to a crawl and not make her 6 hour goal. At this point I was hurting but felt I could break 5:30 if I kept to the 12 minute miles plus I really wanted to get the thing over.

So I told her to keep moving forward as best she could and try running 30 steps at a time if she could. Then I put on my headphones and cranked up my Above & Beyond "Trance Around The World" podcast and started chasing down my fellow marathoners. Trying to wog 12 minute miles was hard but I knew I could get that sub 5:30 if I did it. As I struggled down that long road, it started to sprinkle a bit and there were more spectators.

Now I have the trance music blasting and can not hear them but I high five as many as I can and am driven on by them. It is surreal running to this music and seeing people clapping and urging you on in silence. Finally we got off that awful road and turned right and head up hill to where the start was. I knew the final bit was slightly uphill from all those times I have gone here for cross country meets and now I was going to find out how hard it was for all those high schoolers to finish at Woodward.

I entered the entrance of the park and it is where the the high school 5k heads uphill for the final half mile of the course. Now there are barriers keeping the crowd of the course but most of the crowd is just heading to the cars and not paying attention to us slow finishers. At this point i sensed someone coming up on me despite my loud music blaring in my ears.

For a moment I hoped it was Jessica because since I left her, I had not looked back. But I knew her leg was bad and that it must be someone else. It turned out to be an lady about my age who I had past at mile 25 and I thought good job. Usually no one catches me this late in a marathon. But I at the 26 mile sign there was a slight hill and she almost stopped dead in hear tracks. I past her and got to finish by myself in 5:28:39.

My mission was complete and I got one of my goals. Then the wait began for Jessica, as I waited I saw many happy finishers and even saw a finisher propose to his girlfriend when she finished. She said yes btw. What made it hard looking for Jessica was that she was wearing the race shirt and a hat with black capris and it seemed like every other woman was wearing that uniform. In fact, the Disney Girls were wearing their blue Disney shirts that looked like the Fresno shirts and had hats and black shorts on.

Then I saw her and she had a big smile on her face and broke 5:40 for her first marathon! I was just as proud of her as her dad and her friends were at the finish line.
