Superior 100 Training - Get Your Mind Right

8/4/2015

If this doesn't get you in the mood for Superior I don't know what will.  Rugged.  Relentless.  Remote.

Gooseberry - Split Rock (loop included) from Jon Howard on Vimeo.

In training for the Sawtooth 100 Mile Endurance Race, my brother and I headed to the North Shore of Minnesota to do some trail running. This section is beautiful and fairly tame. There's quite a bit of scree in the loop section. I made the mistake in 2013 of going out too fast so I'll slow down in 14'.

Silver Bay - Tettegouche from Jon Howard on Vimeo.

In training for the Sawtooth 100 Mile Endurance Race, my brother and I headed to the North Shore of Minnesota to do some trail running. This section is Bear and Bean. Lot's of climbing and has been hot in the past (exposed). It's beautiful but don't let this section lull you to sleep.

Finland - Crosby from Jon Howard on Vimeo.

In training for the Sawtooth 100 Mile Endurance Race, my brother and I headed to the North Shore of Minnesota to do some trail running. This is the section from Finland - Crosby. It will likely be the overnight section of the Sawtooth 100 Mile Endurance Run.

Crosby - Sugarloaf from Jon Howard on Vimeo.

In training for the Sawtooth 100 Mile Endurance Race, my brother and I headed to the North Shore of Minnesota to do some trail running. This is the section that finished me in 2013. The climb at the beginning and the heat on the top of the ridge.

Temperance - Sawbill (Carlton's Peak) from Jon Howard on Vimeo.

In training for the Sawtooth 100 Mile Endurance Race, my brother and I headed to the North Shore of Minnesota to do some trail running. This section contains Carlton's Peak. The distance is short but the intensity rivals any in the entire 100 Mile event. The timing is pretty brutal too...

Oberg - Lutsen from Jon Howard on Vimeo.

In training for the Sawtooth 100 Mile Endurance Race, my brother and I headed to the North Shore of Minnesota to do some trail running. This will be the last section of the Sawtooth 100.

In training for the Sawtooth 100 Mile Endurance Race, my brother and I headed to the North Shore of Minnesota to do some trail running. Here is the last video I shot before leaving the trail. The Poplar River is in the background. For the next week I'll be focusing on rest and looking forward to the struggle of the 5th and 6th of September. There is a certain confidence that comes with ultra endurance. It's knowing that no matter what situation arises, you've always been pushed beyond it and will engineer a way through it.

We'll be back up there this August to train for Superior.  On the weekend of August 21 and 22, I'll be working through the first 50.  The following weekend, August 28 and 29, I'll be working through the back 50.  If you are there the same weekend, shoot me an email and maybe we can hook up for dinner either the night of the 21st or the night of the 28 somewhere up that way.  jon@jonhoward.co is the best way to reach me.
