The event is an Ultrawalk where the participants walk on a 3.7 mile loop through Boulder, CO beginning at 5pm today (May 30th) and there is no finish line the last person walking wins.The record was set in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil at 102 hours. Distance is not important, time is.We only get a 10 min break every loop to rest, fix our feet change clothes etc.. Though there is an athletic component in the walking it is more

I GOT 'R DONE!!!

2008/03/28

It was a long enchanted journey, believe it or not I didn't get a single blister. My only injury came the evening after I finished when I was shaving and I nicked my face. I lost a few pounds early in the run but my weight stabilized somewhere in Texas. I had a very few difficulties with the Zzzoomer because it is such a simple device. Early flats were a big issue, but once I got those Armadillo tires I went over 1500 miles without one.I truly felt blessed by my encounters with all the different

Nice visiting Mississippi, Hello Alabama!

I had a surprise visit from Bud Glassberg and his daughter Ellie. Bud is the teacher/organizer of the Eagle Elementary Beagles. They are bound and determined to chase me down for bragging rights to the most kilometers run. They don't want a handicap, they are challenging me head on. With 155 kids they are pushing me. It was fun running with him.I spent the night in Columbus MS and I had a nice meal given to me by Harvey's. It began raining pretty good so I spent the morning working on getting a

Sorry about the text portion of the website Blog. I have been having computer and internet connection issues for the past several days. I don't know if I have it licked yet but it is working for the time being. I have been publishing my Audio podcasts and I hope that you enjoy them. They are by far the most current, and to the news. Please check there first. Listen to the Utterz! I have also been publishing my photos in webshots. My videos have been difficult because I need to translate each clip

Smooth sailing out of Roswell into Texas

Glen Turner Running & Zzzooming ·

2008/03/05

I left Roswell after recharging my batteries (literally & figuratively). I worked hard to get something for day 16. My distance for that day is totaled at 9:26am Pacific time so pushed for 50k, I got just about as close as you can get. I was on the road with no place to really take a break so I carried on with a gentle tail wind and a gradual decent :) to Plains, TX. I arrived to find the town about to roll up the streets. I had 15 mins to get some food at the DQ before they closed at 8:00pm. The

I have had to camp in the Zzzoomer fro the past 3 nights. The first night I stayed in the parking lot of a Family Dollar behind the card board collection trailer.The second night was aesthetically much more pleasing in the White Sands desert. Last night was the most difficult of the Whole trip - I was caught by a wind (50 - 70 mph) and snow storm. weather.com - Local Severe Weather Alerts Details Winter Storm Warning/O.CON.KABQ.WS.W.0005.000000T0000Z- 080303T1900Z/ SANDIA/MANZANO MOUNTAINS- CENTRAL

Pounding out the miles & flats, flats, flats

2008/02/29

The past couple of days I have been working really hard. I hand been right on the cusp of my new goal pace and I wanted to get off the edge. Last night (rather early this morning) I took care of the edge. I put in another 100 mile day! Now I am comfortably 90 kms above my goal pace. To do that I swear I went through 20 patches and spent a couple of hours on the side of the road. I am not exaggerating. I have found a bike shop in Las Cruces, NM, RIDE ON SPORTS, that says they have the tire for me

New Goals!

2008/02/24

02/23/08I have completed my first week on the road. My goals have changed a bit as I have discovered more about the "Zzzoomer effect" I am much faster than I thought I would be. Now I am going to shoot for 100k per day average. For the teams that I am running with This new goal will be retroactive from the start and as long as you have met your weekly goals your team will stay with me. My rules for this are that one can increase their mileage goals but can not decrease them. I have a small cushion

02/22/08Field of dreams - If you build it they will come.I began this run on a wing and a prayer (as my Grama T. would have said). Two days before I left I had less than $100 in cash. I had been working on a masonry project that was going to pay out eventually, but I still haven’t been paid. Just before I left Anytime Fitness from Erie, CO stopped me on the side of the road and asked me what I was training for. I told him and he got rather inspired. Hi gym offered a financial sponsorship that
