Ricks NOT Running!

2012-01-25T08:50:00.000-08:00

The downward slide of a distance runner and a light at the end of the tunnel!
My 12 weeks of Lydiard training ended in disaster, chronic fatigue, muscle spasms and injury!
I went into the training full of hope and desire but something went wrong along the way.
In desperation I had some tests done and they came back today.
It seems I've got pretty bad magnesium deficiency.
The side effects of this deficiency are chronic fatigue, insomnia, muscle tension- spasms, depression, erratic heart palpitations and a whole host of minor problems!
All of which I've been going through.
The good news is I can recover from this quite quickly by taking mineral supplements and changing my diet.
THE BAD NEWS
My injuries may take longer to heal.
In December I had a hamstring pull which is now fully recovered But in a cross country race a week ago I tore some fibers in my Achilles Tendon!
I got treatment today from Sarah Hall, it may take some weeks to get full recovery!
I believe the injuries were caused part by incorrect running biomechanics and part through the mineral deficiency.
I do feel a great sense of relief to know I really was ill and it was not all in my mind!
Training correctly and seeing yourself going backwards is hard to take.
Getting a good hiding in every race is even more depressing!
Looks like the London Marathon is off the picture this year.
But I'll be back for sure sometime!
Peace

Southport Torchlite 5 K RESULTS An enlightening experience.........

2012-01-19T08:30:00.000-08:00

An enlightening experience.........By Andy Hudson

Much improved and indeed almost a tropical evening greeted thirty-four
eager participants and a healthy number of much appreciated helpers at
the Torchlit Tip venue last night.

Seemingly darker than the normal extreme darkness! And the route
marked with new experimental “blue” glowsticks, the runners headed off
across the desolate wasteland no doubt exciting local astronomers with
speculative talk of a shooting star!

A breakaway group soon disappeared headed by a rejuvenated Rob
McGrath, holding off stiff competition to take victory on his debut in
18 minutes 25 seconds.

Back in the midfield there was a faller at Beeches Brook (hope you are
ok Clare!) As the dots of lights became strung out across the winding
undulating pathways, Sue Cooper pulled up with mechanical failure
(Duracell next time Sue!) whilst Rick and his now legendary apparatus
created the feel of a bright summer afternoon at the bridge crossing.

Course photographer, Mr Caton, busied himself with random shots of
passing black cats whilst manning a strategic crossing.

Tracy came home in 20 minutes 38 seconds closely followed by Clare
Constable despite her two broken legs from the earlier unintended
rapid decent to ground level!!

Prizes fell to Paul Talbot, Carol Wright ad Paul Warrington with the
ceremonial throw of the dice sourced from the family Monopoly set!

Is it possible to have a better time in the dark?

Watch out for the FINAL event on the 8th February where forty
participants is a realistic target.

Lingering question; Where was defending champion Ben?.................

Ben is in London organizing the Olympics

Torchlite Tip 5K Southport 18th Jan 2012

2012-01-11T05:03:00.000-08:00

Wednesday 18th January sees the penultimate evening gathering at the
former tip site adjacent to Dobbies, Benthams Way, Southport.

A social 5k off road course illuminated only by head torches, glow
sticks and heat generated by the soles of the runners! As an
alternative to midweek winter evening training, it provides a testing
session with an element of competitiveness for those willing and able.

November’s event saw thirty-five runners with Ben Johnson lighting up
the course with a blistering 17 minutes 48 seconds. Forty
participants is certainly a possibility this time particularly if
supported by the Liverpool end which would no doubt keep Ben on his
toes!

These things can only happen if supported so tweet, email, text,
whatever! But be sure not to miss this great fun evening.

Usual start time of 7pm come rain or shine (which is unlikely)

Loan of head torches available on the night. As usual any helpers
would be most appreciated.

Thanks,
Andy H

Corruption in The Music Industry Podcast!

2012-01-06T12:32:00.000-08:00

In the first of a new series of podcasts for 2012, Mark Devlin talks to world famous author and public speaker David Icke about the agenda being employed in the music industry as one of many, many facets of the global control system. As more and more people awaken to new levels of human consciousness, the controllers are getting ever more desperate to suppress the movement. The music game - and particularly what passes for 'hip hop' and 'R&B' - is now a much-favoured method of subliminal manipulation.

With names such as Jay-Z, Lady Gaga and Britney Spears being specifically addressed, this will be controversial, and will doubtless upset a few. But the truth will always be the truth, and it's time certain things were said.

Enjoy the ride.

2011-12-31T16:01:00.000-08:00

My Father died when I was just 4 years old!
Since that time I've been searching to understand what life and death was about!
But even more so, my search is about- is there life after death ?
When I was 12 I had a an 'out of body' experience!
Yet only in the last 12 months have I really starting to understand our true journey-destiny in this life and beyond!

THE RUBBISH TORCHLIGHT 5K RESULTS

Conditions at the starting point of the race, up at the top of the stone circle were extreme to say the least!
Freezing Gale force winds made it feel like we were at the top of a high mountain pass.
Nic, Andy hudson's daughter [who kindly took the results] made it clear that If we continued with the planned 10K event my life might not be worth living and I might walk with a limp for the rest of my life:0[
In the interests of all helpers and marshals the event was cut to just a 5K.
Hopefully next summer we can try for a 10K event if better conditions allow :0]
Steve Mclean won the mens race by storming away at the start, demoralizing his rivals from the gun!
Trace Peters fresh from her 10K P.B. the day before did a similar job to win the ladies event!
Thanks to Andy Hudson and everyone who helped and took part and Nic for not breaking my leg!
Look out for Andy Hudson's Torchlite 5K in January 2012
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Running Faster Under The Influence

2011-12-15T09:22:00.000-08:00

Walking back in the rain at 3.30AM in the morning from town after Tracey's 30th birthday bash I started to feel very cold!
So I started to run the last mile home, my form didn't feel very good,but then I had an idea!
Many musicians, artists and great thinkers have produced their but ideas-work under the influence of drugs or alcohol[not that I'm suggesting you follow suite] I'd been watching this video earlier in the day and it dawned on me that I was landing to far in front of my center of gravity .

I started to concentrate on landing closer and closer to my COG by activating my gluts using the CUE of imagining that I was landing behind my body, my speed picked up faster and faster.
I was flying!
It really works!
Try it!
To slow down simply start landing more in front of your COG and feel the braking forces!
More Running Form Tips
Run Tall
Keep chest and hips pushed slightly forward.
Keep feet pointing straight ahead.

Lydiard Training
I have now completed 10 weeks of base training.
Things have not gone as well as expected due to what I believe is Adrenal burnout, most probably brought about by a poor diet inc few if any vegetables, too much alcohol as well as a lot of stress due to my divorce!
I'll be working with Gary Mollar to rectify my nutrition in the coming weeks [see post below]
Hopefully i can return from the dead to start 2012 in better shape!
I've decided to return to Marius Bakken's training plan for London 2012, with the aim of sub 2.45.
No matter how far this dream seems at the moment with good health I truly believe I can trounce that time good and proper!
