    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.

    Snowshoeing Skills Book Updated August 2012

    Snowshoeing Skills Book Updated August 2012 Coaching Principles STEPS IN TEACHING A DRILL 1. Introduce 2. Demonstrate 3. Explain 4. Organize 5. Execute 6. Correct 7. Practice GENERAL PRINCIPLES Drills should relate specifically to what you are teaching. Athletes should be made aware of how drills relate to the sport. Drills should only be a part of your practice. Drills should be introduced at a slow pace and then gradually increased Drills should be accommodated for fitness, age and abilities. Drills should move from simple to complex. First perform drills that will help keep the interest of athletes. Drills should relate to the system of play that the athletes will use. Perform a variety of drills to prevent monotony. As fatigue sets in, technique deteriorates so provide frequent rest periods. EXECUTION PRINCIPLES Review the drill procedure before practice so you know how it works. When introducing a new drill, walk a group of athletes through it so others can see how it is performed. Avoid talking too much, get the athletes performing, they will learn by doing. When errors occur, the drill should be stopped momentarily to correct errors. Praise those athletes doing the drill well and encourage those having difficulty. If equipment is necessary, ensure it is set up before so that progression from one drill to the next can progress smoothly. Snowshoe Warm Up The purpose of a snowshoe warm up is really to get the legs warm up and to increase the distance of the stride. Follow these stretches with approximately 5-10 min of stretching. Ideas: Begin with a quick paced walk for one lap.
