SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2010 BRONX N. Y. VOLUME 43 ISSUE #5 Van Cortlandt Track Club newsletter My Kenyan Adventure by Kyle Ha! This summer presented me with one of those unique moments in life when I knew I had to strike while the iron was hot. Everything came together running-wise, financially, & in terms of my summer break from teaching. I was then off to Africa. My flights all went well. Emirates is an incredible airline and I ate very well onboard (i.e. grilled tofu with vegetables, fruit salads, Indian rice with beans, etc.) There were literally hundreds of movies and tv shows to watch and everyone had his/her own individual tv screen and advanced remote. 'Stars' lit up the cabin ceiling at night. The flight was 11 hours 41 minutes from JFK to Dubai, United Arab Emirates. I landed in the Middle East for the first time ever and was immediately struck by the opulence of Dubai. Giant sparkling columns lined the high ceilinged airport. Triple story cascading Kyle with Daniel Rono by the pool at th" waterfalls fell near giant elevators. All local Muslim women I saw High Altitude Training Centr" had their heads covered and men wore flowing white robes with long white head scarves (sorry, I don't know the proper terms for those). The world's only 7 star hotel, Al Burj Dubai, sat nearby--on its own private island. The airport's Burger King carried the 'Bean Patty--Veg' sandwich. Of course, I left the airport and explored a bit outside but then had to report back to Emirates fairly quickly for my connecting flight. En route to Nairobi, I saw the reddish sands of Saudi Arabia, leading into the beige sands of Yemen. We crossed over the Gulf of Aden and into Ethiopia. It was 4.5 hours from Dubai to Nairobi. Before I'd even caught my final connecting flight to Eldoret, Kenya, I encountered a slender man whose brand new Nike running shoes stretched out to my chair leg. He sat within my comfort zone, which does not really exist here, and I actually pushed away from him at first. I then noticed white Nike socks. I soon asked him for the time and saw a Nike running watch. 'Do you run?' I asked. 'Yes,' he replied. I was sitting next to Vincent Kituro, returning home from running the Sapporo Half Marathon, in Japan. He was somewhat disappointed in his 1:02 finish--because it was humid. Vincent's marathon P.R. (personal record) is 2:05:13 [world record:2:03:59] He trains with Robert Cheruyiot--2010 Boston Marathon Champion. They're both training to make Kenya's Olympic team for London 2012. Vincent and I talked a while and I'm sure I scared him off with my 10,000 questions. We then boarded a fairly small Jetlink aircraft for the 35 minute flight to Eldoret, in western Kenya. Landing in darkness, it was pretty eerie. The only lights were directly next to the runw (con’t next page) VCTCONLINE.NING.COM! PAGE 1 SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2010 BRONX N. Y.

Bolt, who was once a 200-meter specialist, broke the 100-meter world mark for the third time during a thrilling showdown with Tyson Gay at the World Outdoor Championships in Berlin on Aug. 16, 2009. The Jamaican pulled ahead of Gay early in the race and never let up, finishing in 9.58 seconds. The victory came exactly one year after Bolt broke the record for the second time, winning the 2008 Olympic gold medal in 9.69. 2. 200 Meters Usain Bolt, Jamaica, 19.19. Bolt broke his own world mark at the 2009 World Outdoor Track & Field Championships, where he finished in 19.19 seconds on Aug. 20. He first broke Michael Johnson's 12-year-old mark during the Olympic final exactly one year earlier, finishing in 19.30 seconds while running into a slight headwind (0.9 kilometers per hour). 3. 400 Meters Michael Johnson, USA, 43.18. Many expected Johnson to eventually break Butch Reynolds' mark of 43.29 seconds, set in 1988, but 1999 seemed an unlikely year for the record to fall. Johnson suffered from leg injuries that season, missed the U.S. Championships and ran only four 400-meter races before the World Championships (where he gained an automatic entry as the defending champ). By the day of the World final, however, it was apparent that Johnson was in top form and that Reynolds' record was in jeopardy.

Be a positive example. Advice for New Coaches • Find a mentor. Not just someone else on your coaching staff but someone from another school. Veteran HS Track and CC coaches are more than happy to share what they do. • Steal other coaches methods. Everything I do has been stolen from someone else. I truly have nothing original to offer. • Always continue to listen to other coaches ideas. Keep the ones you like and add them to your own bag of tricks. • Go to clinics as often as possible. I go to two or three per year. In 24 years, I’ve never gone to a clinic and not added something to my repertoire. • Get Jack Daniels and Joe Vigil’s books. Types of Distance Runners • 200M-800M type: These will spend 1-2 days each week with the sprint crew but most days with me.

  • Optimal Pacing for Running 400 M and 800 M Track Races

    Optimal Pacing for Running 400 M and 800 M Track Races

    Optimal Pacing for Running 400 m and 800 m Track Races James Reardon University of Wisconsin–Madison, Department of Physics, Madison, WI 53706∗ (Dated: April 3, 2012) Physicists seeking to understand complex biological systems often find it rewarding to create simple “toy models” that reproduce system behavior. Here a toy model is used to understand a puzzling phenomenon from the sport of track and field. Races are almost always won, and records set, in 400 m and 800 m running events by people who run the first half of the race faster than the second half, which is not true of shorter races, nor of longer. There is general agreement that performance in the 400 m and 800 m is limited somehow by the amount of anaerobic metabolism that can be tolerated in the working muscles in the legs. A toy model of anaerobic metabolism is presented, from which an optimal pacing strategy is analytically calculated via the Euler-Lagrange equation. This optimal strategy is then modified to account for the fact that the runner starts the race from rest; this modification is shown to result in the best possible outcome by use of an elementary variational technique that supplements what is found in undergraduate textbooks. The toy model reproduces the pacing strategies of elite 400 m and 800 m runners better than existing models do. The toy model also gives some insight into training strategies that improve performance. arXiv:1204.0313v1 [physics.pop-ph] 2 Apr 2012 2 I. INTRODUCTION The sport of athletics, called “track and field” in the USA, includes running competitions at distances ranging from 60 m to 10000 m.

Smith1,6* 1 Statistical and Applied Mathematical Sciences Institute, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, United States of America, 2 Department of Biostatistics, Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America, 3 Department of Statistics, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States of America, 4 Dana Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America, 5 Puffinware LLC, State College, Pennsylvania, United States of America, 6 Department of Statistics and Operations Research, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, North Carolina, United States of America Abstract The 2013 Boston marathon was disrupted by two bombs placed near the finish line. The bombs resulted in three deaths and several hundred injuries. Of lesser concern, in the immediate aftermath, was the fact that nearly 6,000 runners failed to finish the race. We were approached by the marathon’s organizers, the Boston Athletic Association (BAA), and asked to recommend a procedure for projecting finish times for the runners who could not complete the race. With assistance from the BAA, we created a dataset consisting of all the runners in the 2013 race who reached the halfway point but failed to finish, as well as all runners from the 2010 and 2011 Boston marathons. The data consist of split times from each of the 5 km sections of the course, as well as the final 2.2 km (from 40 km to the finish). The statistical objective is to predict the missing split times for the runners who failed to finish in 2013.

The participation of these runners in the 2010 Bank of America Chicago Marathon will be pivotal in deciding the winner of the 2009-2010 World Marathon Majors (WMM) series. Wanjiru and Kebede are tied atop the current series standings with 50 points apiece. A victory by one or the other in Chicago would likely determine the champion of the series, which concludes with the ING New York City Marathon on November 7. “Bringing together these three great champions in the prime of their careers will make the 2010 Bank of America Chicago Marathon one of the most exciting races in the event’s history,” said Executive Race Director Carey Pinkowski.
