Fell Runner (Fellrnr)

Before posting today's topic, I want to announce the winner of the "Barefoot Running: The Movie" give-away. Ragfield has won! You'll need to contact me off-blog to provide a mailing address. Congratulations. (The picture to the left is Fellrnr, not Ragfield.)

And now today's topic...a quick shout-out to my favorite running resource: Fellrnr.com. Jonathan Savage is the man behind the wiki and he does a wonderful job at keeping things up-to-date. In addition to being a great runner (he was on the recent USA 24-Hour national team competing in the World Championships in Poland), he also experiments and shares information like few runners I've ever encountered. I really trust his advice and appreciate that the web site has no advertising. The more I keep clicking on various topics, the more I get drawn into his deep knowledge of running, racing, nutrition, shoes, clothes, lights, run logs, etc. I use his SportTracks plugin with DailyMile and just love the statistics it provides--and the option to select which ones you want to calculate and display.

Here is the Fellrnr website: http://fellrnr.com
This is the main site with all sorts of resources, reviews, advice, and links.

Twitter account: @fellrnr
Mostly run log posts, updates to wiki announcements, and race report links.

Pretty incredible training stats. Inspirational for a recreational runner like myself.

OK. I'll be there too (30 miler) with Jeff Riddle (10 miler). I'll bring the DVD. Perfect! Good luck at the race.
