Annual Pub to Pub Run We've got a good one planned for you this year! In honor of DPMR's 10th year anniversary, we will be running to various sites influential to DPMR's history and founding members. Hardrock Race Report - Ultra's Always Seem to Deliver Life Lessons Kelly Barber was able to achieve a long awaited goal this year - running in Hardrock! He offers us a fantastic race report chock full of great pictures, with real-life struggles and challenges that we can all relate to, when testing our limits in racing and mountains. Such a treat to share in the adventure from the couch! Race Report - The Lost Sierra Ultramarathon Member Bruna Gusmao just finished her first ultramarathon and shares the experience with us this month. Coach’s Corner with Martin Benes – How Do We Get Better?This month and next, local coach (and DPMR Board Member) Martin Benes offers little bit about how we can actually improve our running both in terms of endurance and speed. Book of the Month - A light through the cracks by Beth RoddenThis month, Aude explores a memoir from climber Beth Rodden. Even though it is not directly about running, her journey of pushing herself, the inner voices and external pressures about performance and body image, challenges to stand up for oneself are important to discuss for the health of our sport. She also discusses her experience with trauma and anxieties after being captured in Kurdistan. Group Run and Demos with Tahoe Mountain SportsJoin DPMR and TMS for an evening group run, Hoka shoe demos, a post-run stretch with food and drink sponsored by Vuori, and exclusive shopping specials at Tahoe Mountain Life on September 17th from 5pm-8:30pm.
