Second Wind Running Club is offering a prize for the best article submitted to In Passing in 2008 for a re- port or story on a race of 10K or less! Yes, that’s right. You can achieve fame, notoriety, and a valuable prize for simply writing about a running event that may take less than an hour to complete. You don’t even have to be fast or place in your age group. You only need to do a good job describing the event, your experience, or some facet of a short-distance race. You don’t even have to run. If you are a spectator at a 5K or 10K race, just write an article about it and send it in to In Passing. The winner will be selected by a vote of the Second Wind Board and announced at the January 2009 Annual Banquet. Electronic-Only Option for the Newsletter We are offering the option of receiving In Passing via e-mail as a .pdf. Since we print on recycled paper, this won’t save a tree, but it might reduce clutter around your house. Also, you will receive the full-color version of the newsletter a day or two ahead of everyone else and get the scoop on all the exciting club doings. If you are interested in this option, contact Bill Dey at [email protected]. 4 In Passing ● September/October 2008 ● secondwindrunningclub.org Second Wind IN THIS ISSUE 6 President’s Corner Upcoming Activities RRCA News 7 Women’s Fitness Run 8 Stan Shobe Spotlight Sunday, September 27 10 Bonnie McElwee Spotlight see page 33 11 Beginning Women’s Running Group Recap Part 2 Last summer fun run at Meadowbrook and Pizza Party at Village Inn The Fartlek 13 Tuesday, October 21 14 Howl at the Moon 15 Funny Running Allerton Park Trail Run Sunday, October 26 16 X-Terra Xtreme 12K see page 32 19 S Race Results 27 Howl at the Moon photos 31 Racing Ahead 32 Allerton Park Trail Run Please send corrections, comments, criticisms, or suggestions to Jeff Kelly at [email protected]. 33 Women’s Fitness Run 35 Second Wind Application For changes in street address, telephone number, or e-mail address, please contact the Second Wind database manager, Kim Nystrom at knystrom@uiuc. edu.

We have the speaker series, Women’s Fitness 5K, Allerton Trail Race, pizza party, marathon training, and the race circuit. The September speaker series featured Mark Knutson, the event manager for the Illinois Marathon. Mark talked about the current status and future plans of the Illinois Marathon. His talk was at 6:30 p.m. on Monday, September 15 at Jupiter’s II, near the corner of Windsor and Duncan. The 23rd Women’s Fitness 5K will be held on Saturday, Sep- tember 27. I encourage all women to run or walk in this great event. Gentlemen, come on out and support the women in your lives by cheering them on or helping out at the finish line. The 21st Allerton Trail Race will be held on Sunday, October 26. In trying to be more environmen- tally friendly, we are printing fewer brochures and encouraging everyone to register online. If you prefer not to register online, entry forms can be downloaded from the Web site. You can also pick up an entry form at Body n’ Sole. If you are not participating in this race, I encourage you to volunteer. The last fun run for the season at Meadowbrook Park will be on Tuesday, October 21. Immediately after the run will be the pizza party at the Village Inn. Once again, Second Wind will pick up tab for pizza and soft drinks. Bill Dey is working diligently to update the race circuit results from the Fisher Fair 5K, Run for the Bagel 5K/10K, and the Mahomet 5K and half-marathon. Check the Web site for the latest standings. There are five more circuit races remaining with the next race being the Shoreline Classic 15K in Deca- tur. I’m always open to new ideas, so send me an e-mail if you have a great idea that you would like to share. I hope to see you at one of the above events.

  • Camille and Comrades
    July 2017 Issue No. 255 CAMILLE AND COMRADES: Herron reflects on historic win at world’s premier ultramarathon By Jenni Carlson Camille Herron sat at a high-top table away from the hustle and bustle of the burger joint. The weekday lunch rush at The Garage in Midtown was largely over, but after a late-morning workout at Lake Hefner – she wanted to run in the heat and the wind -- a burger overflowing with toppings and an order of sweet potato fries sat in front of her. She needed calories. She wanted fuel. But for long stretches, the food went untouched – Herron was talking about her running instead of eating. And there’s lots to talk about these days. When Herron and I met for a late lunch, it was only two weeks after the Oklahoma native’s historic win at the Comrades Marathon in South Africa. She became only the third American, male or female, to win the world’s most prestigious ultramarathon. And it was only a week or so before she went to the Western States 100, one of trail racing’s biggest events. Herron, 35, couldn’t have been more excited about what she’s already accomplished this year, starting with Comrades. “I won the World Cup,” she said, trying to explain how big Comrades is in the world of ultramarathoning. She went to Comrades for the first time three years ago. At that point, she was transitioning to Camille Herron ultramarathoning after an extremely successful See Camille, on page 6 marathoning career -- she won the Oklahoma City www.okcrunning.org July 2017 President’s Message By Matthew Wilcoxen, President Summer has sprung!

  • 2021 Magazine
    July 2021 Welcome to the July 2021 edition of BADWATER® Magazine! We are AdventureCORPS®, producers of ultra-endurance sports events and adventure travel across the globe, and the force behind the BADWATER® brand. This magazine celebrates the entire world-wide Badwater® / AdventureCORPS® series of races, all the Badwater Services, Gear, Drinks, and Clothing, and what we like to call the Badwater Family and the Badwater Way of Life. Adventure is our way of life, so – after the sad and disastrous 2020 when we were not able to host any of our life-changing events – we are pleased to be fully back in action in 2021! Well, make that almost fully: Due to pandemic travel bans still in place, international participation in our USA-based events is not where we want it and that’s really unfortunate. Badwater 135 is the de facto Olympics of Ultrarunning and the 135-Mile World Championship, so we always want as many nationalities represented as possible. (The inside front cover of this magazine celebrates all sixty-one nationalities which have been represented on the Badwater 135 start line over the years.) Our new six-day stage race across Armenia – Artsakh Ultra – will have to wait yet another year to debut in 2022, two years later than planned. But it will be incredible, the ultimate stage race with six days of world-class trail running through several millennia of incredible culture and history, and across the most dramatic and awe-inspiring landscapes. This year, we are super excited to have brought two virtual races to life, first for the 31 days of January, and then for 16 days in April.

    NEWSLETTER 2020 POOVAMMA ENJOYING TRANSITION TO SENIOR STATESMAN ROLE IN DYNAMIC RELAY SQUAD M R Poovamma has travelled a long way from being the baby of the Indian athletics contingent in the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing to being the elder FEATURED ATHLETE statesman in the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta. She has experienced the transition, slipping into the new role MR Poovamma (Photo: 2014 Incheon Asian Games @Getty) effortlessly and enjoying the process, too. “It has been a different experience over the past couple of years. Till 2017, I was part of a squad that had runners who were either as old as me or a couple of years older. But now, most of the girls in the team are six or seven years younger than I am,” she says from Patiala. “On the track they see me as a competitor but outside, they look up to me like a member of their family.” The lockdown, forced by the Covid-19 outbreak, and the aftermath have given her the opportunity to don the leadership mantle. “For a couple of months, I managed the workout of the other girls. I enjoyed the role assigned to me,” says the 30-year-old. “We were able to maintain our fitness even during lockdown.” Poovamma reveals that the women’s relay squad trained in the lawn in the hostel premises. “It was a change off the track. We hung out together. It was not like it was a punishment, being forced to stay away from the track and the gym.
