A CROSS-COUNTRY RUNNER IS……. |
| |
|
Between the innocence of boy-hood
and the dignity of manhood, one
finds an extraordinarily dedicated
creature called a cross-country
runner.
He is generally a composite of the
American boy…..skinny or heavy,
short-legged or long-legged,
long-haired or short-haired,
apple-cheeked or sallow, bubbly or
shy, wise-cracking or stammering.
Whatever his looks, he lives by the
creed of every genuine cross-country
runner: “To run every second and
every mile of every race to the very
best of my ability.”
The cross-country runner is found
everywhere……slipping through the halls……wallowing through the
crowded winter traffic (generally just at dusk)….groping in a
beautiful sunrise on the local golf
course….disappearing in the dust of
cars on a lonely, dry summer
road….pussy-footing along the
painfully hot tar roads of
July….whipping into whirlpool
baths…..intervaling on indoor
tracks…..loping around lakes.
Motorists chastise them, team-mates
rib them, coaches criticize them,
students cheer them, kid brothers
idolize them, girls adore them,
alumni tolerate them, football
players can’t understand them,
fathers encourage them, and moms
worry about them.
A cross-country runner eats like
UCLA…..sleeps like Oregon…..thinks
about distance running like the
University of Texas-El Paso….but
often runs like Pumpkin Center
Unified.
He can be observed in a host of
unusual activities…..fartleking……over-distancing…..intervaling…..speed
working…..hilling….circuiting…peaking…..weight-lifting…..and,
when the pain of it all becomes too
much, simply “walking” or
“sitting”…..
When he’s not running well
(according to Coach), he has too
many other interests, like
girls…chemistry…girls…physics…girls…calculus..girls…just
can’t concentrate….won’t do his
weight-training….can’t dedicate…..or
is just a bag of injuries.
When he’s running well, (according
to Coach), he is one of the
hardest-working, most coachable
athletes in school…..is totally
dedicated…..will undoubtedly be a
state champion….and is just a
“physically tough” kid.
To the opponents’ public relations
man, he is sure to be a national
leader as junior….run a 1:55, 4:16,
9:21 triple in the spring….and is
probably the best distance runner in
the history of the conference. He
is Nick Rose, Steve Prefontane, and
Mike Boit wrapped up in one.
To his own coach’, for press
purposes, he lacks the real killer
instinct demanded by great
runners…..he has the emotional
stability of a playful cricket….the
sprinting ability of a large
snail….and is as coachable as a mule
(though Coach knows all the time he
will win state).
To the alumnus, the cross-country
runner is a nice kid who simply
doesn’t have the background….has not
developed the distance base…will not
go with the competition….can’t run
uphill….and hasn’t the ability to
kick like the five great runners on
the 1967 team that finished second
in the conference and almost
qualified for state.
The cross-country runner likes news
releases, “video tapes of winning
efforts:, recognition of a victory
on the morning school P.A. system
plus….medals….ribbons….cheerleaders….flat
courses….overnight trips….practice
sessions the night before the
meets….the nights Coach has to miss
practice….new
shoes….rub-downs….pictures in the
yearbook….new uniforms….conference
championships….trips to state…and
school records.
He is not especially fond of
run-offs for seventh
man…blisters…shorts that rub…heavy
running shirts…time-trials…team
warm-ups, especially
calisthenics…weight-training
workouts…washing his
sweats…obnoxious motorists…hilly
courses…big dogs…waiting for the
race (but he lives with these things
and has fond memories of them).
No one else looks forward as much to
fall or so little to November.
No one else can look at a field of
150 runners and know that he will
finish 67th….
No one else can have so many aches
and pains and yet turn in excellent
performances when the name of the
game is “the big meet”…
No one else feels defeat as deeply
or as personally as the
cross-country runner who had devoted
1,500 miles of training in
preparation for the big race…
No one else finds the same
satisfaction and exhilaration in
forcing every part of his body to
the limit.
The cross-country runner is a
wonderful creature…
You can criticize him, but you can’t
discourage him…
You can beat him, but you can’t make
him quit…
You can take him out of
cross-country, but you can’t take
cross-country out of him…
You might as well admit it….alumnus,
fan or coach….he is your
representative in the great
international sport of distance
running….your symbol of American
competitiveness….your totem of fair
play and determination.
He may not be a state champion or
qualifier for the Olympic team….he
is not judged by his color,
religion, or social standing….he is
measured simply by the democratic
yardstick of how fast he can run,
how far he can run, and how much be
sacrifices for the good of his team
and school.
The cross-country runner is a
hard-working, untiring and
determined young man. When you
leave the cross-country course
moaning about a second or third
place finish in a quality meet, he
is the youngster, who, with a smudge
of dirt on his cheek, sweat on his
brow, pain in his body, and a tear
in his eye, humbles and enriches you
with a few simple words: “We
tried.” |

And.....a new assistant XCountry
Coach has been added at Spruce
Creek. Sheila Sullivan
has teamed up with coach
Scott Kirschner as an assistant
coach to help out and run with the
JV kids. She had an awesome
experience and looked forward to her
time with these kids every
day. Sheila says these are an
amazing bunch of kids: hard
workers, polite, fun and great kids
to be around.
The girls won the 5 Star Conference
meet for both varsity and JV. As a
team the varsity girls went
on to regionals where they placed
9th. Luke Bryan, made it to
Regionals as an individual. |

Spruce Creek Coach Scott
Kirschner coached the Spruce

he coached the middle school team.
His group is called Spruce
Creek Running & Fitness with teams
from both Creekside and Silver Sands
Middle School. The Creekside

Both his boys and girls made it to
the middle school state meet, and a
few individuals qualified and
placed. All of his kids PR'd
by a minute or more, He took
14 kids to Holloway Park in Lakeland

middle school athletes registered!
He is very proud because this was
the first group of middle school
athletes to represent Port
Orange in the middle school state
meet! |

The Freshman/Sophomore meet was held at
Spruce Creek. Our Beachcomber Taylor
Hibel, freshman, NSB High School,
ran in the conference meet. The last half
mile is in the woods, and when the kids come
out of the woods, they have less than a
tenth of a mile before they finish. Going
into the woods, Taylor Hibel was in the
lead. Out of the woods comes Taylor, all by
herself. She was beaming! She had tough
competition from all of the local schools
from east and west Volusia, as well as
Flagler Palm Coast. Her win was very
impressive! It was a great moment for
her and her family and team. |

We all are
extremely proud of our Beachcomber Coach's.
Lopez Sue O'Malley, Seabreeze

Heather grew up in Ft. Gordon, GA. Her
husbands job brought her to this area in November
2014. Her sister having longer legs, was
chosen for the track team - Heather missed out so
she became a 'band nerd' (her words) in High School.
She has been running about 7 years. She
started for weight loss and that desire of always
'wanting to run' she finally picked it up again.
She was 100 lbs. overweight and changed her
lifestyle, put in the hard work and now has become
an avid athlete, Personal trainer, Sports
Conditioning Specialist and Tri Coach.
Heather is a Personal Trainer/Sports Conditioning/ITCA
Triathlon Coach receiving her training from 24 Hours
Fitness and ACE (American Council on Exercise).
She is a contractor for JOY Fitness and trains
clients out of their homes, in classes or where it
is convenient for them. |
| |
|
Her first triathlon was The Pumpkinman Sprint
Triathlon in Las Vegas in 2010. She completed
the course in 2:05. This was also her most
memorable tri. Her favorite distance is the
sprint tri distance or 5K or 10K. She will be
running her first 1/2 marathon in January. |
 |
|
|
|
Heather
trains 6 days a week and incorporates her track
workouts into her schedule. Her goal is to run
a 20:12 5K - 6:30 pace. She ran a 6:57 pace on
Sept. 13. She has qualified to race in
Duathlon Nationals in 2016 in Oregon and that is her
goal - to go to Natinonals. |
| |
|
 |
Her
biggest challenge is the swim in a
triathlon. A perfect day would
be to run and ride for hours. Her
indulgence is Dark Chocolate or Pie Five
Pizza. Wildest dream to make
TEAM USA. Proudest Running Memory
was when she broke 7 min. mile and was first female
at Remarkable River Run 5K. Running
Inspiration those that are not able to. |

Welcome to
the Beachcombers Heather! We are proud to have

tips |

Tips From
Heather |
|
Nutrition
What to Eat and When
Before a workout
Eat breakfast 30-45 minutes before
During you want to have an electrolyte drink (simple
carbs) for anything over 30 minutes - 45 minutes or
more you need nutrition every 45 minutes - I use
Vega because it's natural
Afterwards you want a meal consisting of complex
carbs, proteins and fats (good fat) - you use all 3
energy systems but depending on your workout as to
which energy is dominant. |
|
|
|
|
Racing
Depending on the distance and your body - not everyone can
digest the same things before a race
Eat breakfast always 1.5-3 hrs before any race of any for
digestion purposes and nerves
5k - grapes are excellent, banana, apple - simple carbs
10k - grapes are excellent, banana, apple - simple carbs
13.1 - gels, fruit such as above, depending on your body and
what you can digest
26.2 = gels, fruit such as above, depending on your body and
what you can digest
You use all 3 energy systems but depending on what
your distance is as to which energy system is dominant.
Rest
Everyone needs rest - athletes need 8-9 hrs of rest - not
everyone can sleep that many hours - make sure your body is
getting adequate rest for you! Make sure you get essential
rest for optimal health and performance. Strength training
athletes or those who workout to stay healthy and not for
performance purposes need rest as well. When you work hard
you need adequate rest! Remember we aren't just thinking
about muscles - we're thinking about connective tissue,
ligaments, tendons, etc.
Mindset
Persistence overcomes Resistance - especially when not
wanting to get up and workout - all of our goals are
different as well as our bodies and what kind of rest and
recovery we need. Remember to always listen to your body
and know if it's telling you not to workout and whether it's
had enough. Sometimes if we go too hard on our easy days or
vice versa our bodies don't like it. Just always know when
it's time to push through and when it's not.
Soreness is good, pain is not. |

Happy Trails to You |
| |
|
This weekend there was a trail run. Trail runs
are much different than running on a road. And it does not
matter if you are doing a 5k or a marathon, they are much
more work.
The trail run usually starts out on a gravel
road and works its way around to the woods and the hills. In
running terminology it is called technical. The more
technical it is, the tougher it is.
Trails have holes, grass clumps, branches,
rocks, ruts, and shadows that all make the course more
difficult. The usual things like hills and turns also slow
you down.
All these challenges make it more important to
concentrate on where you step. And how fast you can run.
Safety is more important than time. Other runners say things
like runner left, to let you know that they are there, and
are passing on the left side. This is because you do not
hear them when they come up behind you.
Every course is different. Even if you run laps,
you have to watch each step every time around.
Every mile seems to get longer.
Life is a lot like a trail run. Some days go
well for you. Things seem to glide along. Life is easy and a
lot of fun. Your classes are interesting and easy.
Other times there are challenges. They seem to
come in bunches. Life is full of rocks, and holes, and
difficult distractions along the way.
During those difficult times each step is work.
You have to concentrate, and it is not as much fun.
Some classes you have to struggle to pay attention,
and work to learn.
All of those obstacles are a part of the course.
You have to travel that way to reach the goal. After the run
is over, those things do not seem as important or difficult.
You are proud that you overcame those tough spots.
So on a run or in life, each day is a new
experience and a new challenge. Be prepared, and keep
working to reach that goal. You will be surprised and
pleased in the end. God has a special plan for you, and each
hurdle along the way was there for a reason.

The Mighty Mushroom: Health Benefits
- Mushrooms provide lean
proteins with no cholesterol or fat, and offer a wealth of
vitamins and minerals
- The fiber and certain
enzymes in mushrooms help lower cholesterol levels
- Mushrooms are a good
source of iron, which promotes the formation of healthy red
blood cells
- Mushrooms are a rich
source of calcium, an essential nutrient in the formation
and strengthening of bones
- Mushrooms carry a
signifiant presence of various polysaccharides, which are
effective in preventing breast and prostate cancer |
| |
|
* Don’t
ever try picking mushrooms for consumption in the wild.
Mushrooms have the unique ability to absorb the material
that they grow on, either good or bad. This quality is what
gives mushrooms so much of their beneficial power, but also
their dangerous aspects. Many mushrooms, when picked in the
wild, contain heavy metals, which can be very toxic, as well
as air and water pollutants. |

| It's always fun
to welcome visitors to run with us while they are visiting
our area. Recently, Tyson Cragg, from
Canada, contacted me about running with a group
while he was visiting here for a month. I put him onto
Melissa Taylor who runs with a group in Ponce Inlet.
Melissa took Tyson under wing and welcomed him into their
group. |

Manchester, England, was in town for business
and ran Paint The Towne on Nov. 1. He placed first in
his age group also. Gareth was going to
be in town for a couple of weeks so we invited him to join
our monthly fun run at Andy Romano Park. We all
enjoyed his company on the run and at Bonefish afterwards!
We look forward to Gareth joining us on his visits to our

On
February 7, 2016 Volusia County Government will be
holding the Daytona Beach Half Marathon at the
Daytona Beach International Speedway. For this
event they will be needing approximately 200
volunteers through members of local organization,
clubs, high schools, universities, running clubs and
businesses.
Volunteers will be needed at a variety of positions
throughout the race. This will include 6 water
stops, set up, clean up, cheer, race pack pick up

“If you run, you are a runner. It doesn't matter how
fast or how far. It doesn't matter if today is your
first day or if you've been running for twenty
years. There is no test to pass, no license to earn,
no membership card to get. You just run.” |

”You have to forget your last marathon before you
try another. Your mind can’t know what’s coming.” –
Frank Shorter, 1972 Olympic marathon gold medalist |

“The beauty of running is its simplicity; the beauty
of runners is that we all have a similar drive to
improve. We are either trying to run a personal
best, or toeing the line for the first time, which
will snowball into a future of trying to run
personal bests. We road racers are a tight community
of mileage-happy, limit-pushing athletes.” - Deena
Kastor, American record holder in the marathon &
half |

We are different, in essence, from other men. If you
want to win something, run 100 meters. If you want
to experience something, run a marathon. – Emil

“Run if you can, walk if you must, crawl if you have to –
just don’t stop.” |

”Ask yourself: ‘Can I give more?’. The answer is usually:
‘Yes’.” -Paul Tergat, Kenyan professional marathoner |

|
”To describe the agony of a marathon to someone who’s
never run it is like trying to explain color to someone who
was born blind.” – Jerome Drayton |
