Anton Krupicka talks about being perma-injured

I don’t know much about this guy. How was he structuring 200 mile weeks? Singles? Doubles? Pace?

My short easy run has 800-1,000 of climbing....probably not even a weekly total for the guys that run around ovals.

You're bragging about 1000 feet of climbing? I get that high in the first mile and a half most days, and I'm nobody.

Get a room you two.

Oh and, you're both liars.

I'm saying my SHORTEST RUNs generally net 1,000 feet of climbing in, say, 7 miles. But I can't really go much flatter than that and still run 12-15k for the week. A road marathoner thinks 750 feet in 26.2 miles is "very hilly." That's why MUT runners smirk at "very hilly" comments. Because roadies can't possibly understand how hilly ultras are. If they didn't know they wouldn't say a damn thing.

And this is why Ultra Runners are actually Competitive Hikers. Because nobody runs those damn things, they walk somewhat fast.

Wow that was super weird today when I ran 10 miles with 2,500 feet of climbing at 8:50 avg pace. Where did I find the time to hike? Granted that's not lightning fast but it's probably your vert for 2 weeks.

You can probably beat me by 10 minutes in a road marathon, but I'll have been waiting for you for 2 hours at the end of a 50. Enjoy the hiking.

And mine's a little north of 8". Wait, what are we doing again?

Just guessing, but would you say that is equivalent to around 66 minutes for a flat 10 miler?

Walking slowly one climbs 750 feet in 22 minutes, 3/4 of a mile.
