Running Stupid Podcast Challenge

Running Stupid is in the final round of the Podcast Challenge and needs you! Please spread the word to anyone you think would be interested!!!!

Ultra-runner Ken: "I host a podcast called Running Stupid. Over the last fourteen months, RS has been involved in a contest with forty seven other running related podcasts. I'm is excited to be able to tell you that this is the final month of the Podcast Challenge and RS is in the final two! It's been quite a year. This contest has really helped the RS community of Stupidheads, if you will, grow into something very special! On top of that, winning this will be a great opportunity for RS. Already, we've attracted the interest of folks who would like to give away products on the show. Winning this event will open a lot of doors for RS! Growth, opportunity and bragging rights are the only prize in this contest.


This month our competition, RunRunLive has really set the bar high. Currently, they are in the lead by about 500 miles. I'm really excited by this for two reasons: First, it gives the Stupidhead community a chance to really show it's true colors and shine! Second, it gives me an excuse to reach out to people like you, my running friends that I don't get to see enough of!


If you have the time, here's how you can help: The contest is on Buckeye Outdoors. I've been using Buckeye to log my runs for the last year now. Last month, they had a major overhaul. I'm finding the site easier to use and pretty convenient.

You'll have to create a user profile. From there, go to the group challenges and join Running Stupid on "There Can be Only One Round 14". Here's a direct link to the contest:

After that, simply log your miles. This round only involves running in May and is retroactive for the whole month. Chris from RRL pointed out in his great video tutorial that you don't need to log every day. Once or twice this month should do the trick.

I know that we're all in the middle of our season and time is at a premium. Logging miles for RS should hopefully only take five to ten minutes of your time. Any time/miles you can give will mean a lot!!!


If you haven't listened to RS yet, please check it out:

You can also find it for free in the iTunes store. I have a lot of fun doing this show! As I runner, I think that you'll really enjoy it too! There are a couple fun (and long) interviews (Dean Karnazes and Gary Robbins) along with some back of the pack race reports (including my just barely finishing the 100k version of HURT 100... Woah!) and what I hope is a lot of information and entertainment!

Thank you so much for your time and miles!!! Please forward this to any friend you can think of that can help in the contest! (Anyone good friends with Scott Jurek? We could really use his record breaking 24 hour run!!! He-he!) Can't wait to see you out on the trail!


All Day!
