Training, training and more training for Gary Guller.

Sunday: 21 February 2010:  What a great week, bunch of miles, a great experience with wonderful, kind folks in Florida for the Round Table Event I was invited to speak at - able to get some miles in whilst visiting, before the audio visual check/rehearsal and another session for two hours, prior to my evening presentation event. Spending quality time now in Encinitas, California, just signed a couple of gear contracts for the next year - and my dog, Emmy, came out for the first 8.25mile run of the day, with my pack at same weight as it will be for the 25th Marathon des Sables  - having short break, then out for 15 miles before meeting friends for a pint at the local brew house. Yum.

Planning to spend the next week, getting the ratios (carbs, hydration aids, vitamins, protein) as acurate as possible in addition to the miles. I am headed to Austin, Texas to speak and meet as many folks as possible, at the FIFTEENTH ANNUAL HALL OF HONOR AWARDS BANQUET - I am really excited about this!

Thank you to Anne at Newton Running, my friends at Multisports, Clif, Oakley and personal coaching advice of Sir Roch Frey. And for all the others that train from the old school. Merci beaucoup.

And much thanks of course to my corporate sponsors, that hire me, book me and fund me - without them, none of this would be possible. I thank you, the foundation thanks you - and I'm glad to know that there are good folks out in the global corporate arena that try very hard to make positive contributions and create better opportunity for others.  I will make you proud!
