Hi there all.I had been thinking that the Leadville 100 would be on my schedule for 2013, but given how much I've been missing Colorado and all of the great reports from this year's race - 2012 may…Continue

Jay Austin commented on Jay Austin's blog post Leadville Training Plan"Yeah, I'd love to see some racing on my schedule. I'm actually working on my wife to let me come to CO for the Trail Running Festival in Fruita where I hope to do the 50 and the Half, but her initial reaction was: You want to go to…"
SKArunner commented on Jay Austin's blog post Leadville Training Plan"I am a 100 miler first timer, so I am still trying to figure it out myself. It looks like a solid build up, but are you going to work in some training races in to the plan? There must be some cool races near by, aside from the Andes, Chili…"

Quick and dirty: I'd love some feedback.I've got my next 9 months laid out running wise and would love to have some input on what I've got right and what's wrong.First a link to the plan itself.I'm starting off really slow and ramping miles up at a rate of about 10%/week because I recently took a full 7 weeks off from running in the wake of a broken bone sustained in a…See More
Jay Austin replied to Coach Weber's discussion Setting a Mileage Goal"I just laid out a training calendar with key workouts, weekly mileage goals and long workouts planned. Adding up the numbers I get to 2300 miles between this week and Leadville. I then decided to check out how many miles I've run…"
Jay Austin replied to Coach Weber's discussion Setting a Mileage Goal"I'm never a real fan of "annual" mileage goals, rather I tend to look for marker "events". In your case it'd be the AR50. In mine, perhaps the Trail Running Festival in Fruita (also in April, pending wife's…"

Hi there all.I had been thinking that the Leadville 100 would be on my schedule for 2013, but given how much I've been missing Colorado and all of the great reports from this year's race - 2012 may well be the year.I moved to Bolivia in February and while my wife is making a king's ransom here, it's a pittance by American standards. I need to know how much it's going to set me back::I'm curious to know what everyone ended up spending for the race. Entry fees, food, race-specific gear, costs I…See More
Jay Austin replied to Brandon Fuller's discussion How Many Miles A Week Should I Run In Training?"100 per week makes sense, but (as a total noob) I'd do that while condensing the effort to just 3 days. I'd still run 6 days a week, but my total mileage wouldn't be much more than 112 miles - I'd just move my weekly hours…"
