Increasing Running Volume 101

on Mar 10, 2025 10:03:15 AM By | Klaire Rhodes Professional Trail Runner and Coach | 0 Comments |
If I was to bet on a time of year where the most runners get injured, I would put strong odds on it being the spring. The sun is starting to come back, roads and trails are clearing of snow, and those summer race goals start feel not so far away anymore. All that excitement to lace up the running shoes and train is amazing, but doing too much too soon is risky business than get end up setting you back with overuse injuries like shin splits, stress fractures, and tendonitis. But how can you increase your running volume in a way that reaches your goals while preventing injury as much as possible? Here’s a few tips.

Getting your sweat on doesn’t always mean logging miles on the treadmill or lifting that heavy load on the weight room floor. Sometimes working up a good sweat is as simple as relaxing in a dry sauna. Think that’s beneficial only on your rest days? Think again.

For many of us, a new year symbolizes a new beginning. But before you ditch your 2024 routine and turn the page, consider what you’ve already been doing. Have you logged more miles, lifted heavier weights, or given yourself a break building in more recovery days to your routine?

Getting Strong for Ski Season

The snow on the ground may be at least a month old in Anchorage, but for many, December seems to mark the official start of the ski season. Whatever your preferred way to get on the snow – nordic, backcountry, or downhill laps at Alyeska – the first day on skis of the year can feel like a shock to the system. Ok, maybe mostly a shock to the quads! All that running and hiking all summer should have left you well-prepared, right? If only it were that simple…

Eating Strategies During the Long Winter Months

on Dec 2, 2024 1:08:03 PM By | Elize Rumsley – RD, LD, CDE, MS, PhD. | 0 Comments |
As we go through the cold and dark months of winter, overeating becomes a common behavior for many people. It is hard to lose weight during this season, but it is even harder to deprive yourself of your favorite holiday foods. You can still include them, but consider enjoying them in smaller portions. If you can maintain a well-balanced diet 80% of the time and less than 20% of the time indulge in not-so-healthy foods, you can continue to make progress toward good health. Here are some tips for healthy eating in the winter months:

Game Changer: Training Young Athletes

When you’re a parent watching your kid play from the sidelines of the field, there’s a sense of pride when you see them kick a goal, hit a homerun, or be the first to cross the finish line. Not only because you’re excited for your child, but also perhaps because you know how hard they worked to be accomplished in their chosen sport. While most young athletes naturally like to move their bodies, it’s important that they do it right. That’s where a personal trainer can change the game.

Have you ever watched a group of children at recess? They’re usually smiling, laughing, and generally care-free. Why? Because they’re not only taking a break from schoolwork, but they’re also moving and connecting with friends. The same is true for adults who exercise. According to the Mayo Clinic, there’s truth behind that ‘runners high’ you get after a workout; especially if you exercise with a friend. October 10 is World Mental Health Day, perfect for a playdate with your friends at The Alaska Club!

Transitioning into the Off-season for Runners

on Oct 7, 2024 10:57:34 AM By | Klaire Rhodes, Professional Trail Runner and Coach | 0 Comments |
The mountain running season in Alaska may be coming to a close, but that doesn't mean your training needs to come to a full stop for the winter. It can be easy as the days start to get shorter and colder totell yourself that you’ll pick the whole running thing back up in the spring. The “fair weather runner” is a tale as old as time–you put all running (and most training in general) on hold for the winter, April sneaks up on you, you start running again, wind up with an injury, and suddenly have very little time to work toward your racing goals. That doesn’t mean you should force yourself to maintain the same running volume over the winter that you enjoy during the drier months, but finding ways to stay consistent and keep training fun over the winter will go a long way toward whatever your running goals are next season! 1. Take some time off! After a long summer of training and racing, your body (and mind!) needs time to rest and recover. Take a week or two off from running completely. Your fitness won’t disappear–take the time to truly rest or try a new activity! 2. Cross-train! The offseason is a great time to supplement some of your usually running mileage with cross training! Activities like biking, swimming, and Nordic skiing are great ways to maintain and improve aerobic fitness and become a stronger, more well rounded athlete. 3. Strength train! The offseason is a great time to get in the routine of a consistent strength program if it fell to the wayside over the busy summer. Exercises like squats, lunges, and deadlifts are all great foundational movements to build general strength. If you’re juststarting out, start with bodyweight and add some weight each week as you get stronger! 4. Find a process goal! It’s not a bad idea to start thinking about outcome goals for next season, but those can feel far away at this point in the year. Instead, find aprocess goal(or 2!) to commit to during the time away from racing. Here’s an example of a few process goals: -Every night, I’m going to pick out my workout clothes to make the mornings easier on me. -I’m going to make it to the gym for 2 strength classes or workouts per week. -Each week, I’ll do one running interval workout to build speed and endurance. 5. Connect with community! Surrounding yourself with other active individuals in your community is a great way to stay excited about running and hold yourself accountable in a group setting. Try a new weekly strength or yoga class at The Alaska Club or for weekly group running workouts in Anchorage, check out Skinny Raven’sRaven Run Clubor theAlaska Endurance Project.

Nutrition for Healthy Eyes

on Oct 1, 2024 12:59:12 PM By | Elize Rumsley – RD, LD, CDE, MS, PhD. | 0 Comments |
When it comes to nutrition and health, most people think about foods that can control weight, diabetes, blood pressure, blood cholesterol or to address some gastrointestinal issues or food allergies. But the truth is that the positive effects of good nutrition goes much beyond these benefits. Good vision health is one among many such benefits.

What If

on Sep 10, 2024 10:57:16 AM By | Janet Warner, Executive Director of Fitness Services | 0 Comments |
In the words of my 1.5-year-old granddaughter Mariana, I did it. I ran 23 miles yesterday. This is the furthest I have ever run. I have a smart training plan and on paper I should not have any concerns, however, that’s not life, is it? The last time I attempted 20 miles, my right IT band changed that plan at mile 16. I had to adapt (go to physical therapy and add in some additional strength training exercises to my program). Although I’d done another 16-mile run with no issues and felt good, I have this “what if” feeling. What if that happens again? What if my energy tanks? What if my phone belt breaks? Well, I learned that one – you just tie the straps together in a knot.

There’s nothing like playing outside during the summer in Alaska. I can’t resist a sunny, beautiful morning running on the Coastal Trail or packing up for a hiking adventure at a state park. What gives me the strength to play outside in the summer? Keeping up my training inside the gym. I asked some of our personal trainers and group fitness instructors why it’s important not to skip your gym workouts in the summer and how what you do inside can help with what you like to do outside.

Nutrition Tips to Prepare for a Marathon

on Jun 3, 2024 2:40:50 PM By | Elize Rumsley – RD, LD, CDE, MS, PhD. | 0 Comments |
Running a marathon is a competitive sport, but in recent years it is gaining popularity as a personal accomplishment or milestone. Whether you do it for fun or for competition, this type of long duration exercise demands intense and long preparation prior to the race. Runners go through various physiological stresses during both phases, training, and racing, and this can be partially addressed by good nutrition, hydration, and sleep. Supplementing muscle fuel stores before and during a race is crucial for successful longer races.

Countering Aging

When it comes to health and fitness, senior citizens are in a decidedly different realm from their younger peers. The facts seem dire but are not irreconcilable with a healthy lifestyle. Bones are drier. Joints are not only dry but possibly arthritic. Reflex time is not as sharp. Metabolism has slowed. Tolerance for cold is diminished, but so is tolerance for heat. There are many biological reasons for this.

I did something this week that I was certain I would NEVER do. I signed up to run a marathon. Not just any marathon – the New York City Marathon. Whenever I’ve been asked “are you gonna run a marathon now”, my reply has always been, I’m only half crazy. Yes, I’ve run several half marathons. However, as I crossed the finish line I’ve never thought, gee I wish I could do that again - right now. I’m also very aware of and respectful of what it takes to train for and run a marathon. It’s a commitment.

The ice, the cold, the darkness, the sense of being boxed in-otherwise known as cabin fever, the feeling of isolation all means we need to try harder to do what we need to do to stay happy and healthy.

Start Your New Year with “Superfoods”

on Jan 9, 2024 10:13:53 AM By | Elize Rumsley – RD, LD, CDE, MS, PhD. | 0 Comments |
"Superfoods" is a term used by lay people to advocate for foods that are rich in nutrients and claim health benefits due to their high content of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other beneficial compounds. Every year the food industry recognizes one food as being the “superfood” and then you see a range of that food product in the market. While the term "superfood" is a marketing term and not a scientific classification, the experts agree that consuming nutrient-dense foods can contribute to overall health and well-being. The key is to incorporate the whole food itself into the diet. Highly marketed processed products are often an expensive gimmick.

Holiday Survival Tips

on Nov 30, 2023 10:56:48 AM By | Barbara DuBois | 0 Comments |
Let’s take a look at how we can better navigate the holidays. The holidays should not be fraught with self-remorse in ostensible lapses in our otherwise general positive health practices. When we were kids, Christmas was the pinnacle of the year. Fond memories abound of mom’s homemade cookies, grandma’s pecan pies, and dad’s basted turkey. The holidays had this aura of hustle and bustle with visitors, family gatherings, decorating of the tree, concerts, and the alluring mountain of gifts. As kids we were so excited, we were ready to pop. Little did we understand the heavy load that burdened our parents with all the preparations. Just the shopping list alone was daunting, let alone the baking, decorating, gift wrapping, card writing, and driving kids hither, thither, and yon. Choir practice, dance rehearsals, parties, and the never-ending-days stacked with events seemed to add on more responsibilities, and strain to the already harried work-a-day world.

I remember the first time I tried Group Power. I walked into the West club’s group fitness room full of people who seemed to know exactly which weights to grab off the racks, how many, and how to set up their bar and bench just right. My head filled with thoughts like what if I lift too heavy or not enough? What if I drop my weighty bar on myself or even worse, someone else? How sore will I be tomorrow? Fast forward more than 10 years, Group Power is one of my favorite classes and I now consider strength training a must in my regular fitness rotation. Whether you enjoy the camaraderie of a Group Power class, prefer to strength train solo or with a personal trainer, chances are you too, were once unsure how to add weights to your workouts.
