WE GIVE YOU SOMETHING GOOD TO READ
Hello Planeteers,
In the past newsletter we have been singing the praises about our sponsor of the month, Dreamer Design, because we are truly impressed with the quality of their jogging strollers. Imagine a jogging stroller that glides, floats, rolls with ease. If you never tried one, you would never know how it makes you want to run. It makes you want to go faster and longer because you don't want to stop enjoying the feeling of pushing such a smooth vehicle. It makes you feel that you are not even pushing it but just holding on to it as it goes by itself. It really makes you want to run, even if you do not have kids (imagine that!). As mentioned last month, we are thrilled to have a couple of Dreamer Design strollers as the prize to our current Run The Planet contest. It is not too late to enter you name to win, just by submitting a course description. So enter your running suggestion to win one today.
Run, but run wisely.Run The Planet will never stop stressing the fact that you should run paying particular attention to your safety. This is why we feature a whole section on Safety on the run to provide you, whether a seasoned or novice runner, with some technical and common-sense information to help you run without risks. The last addition to this section is an article on The importance of carrying an ID: whether you are briskly jogging the shores of Lake Michigan in Chicago, hiking in the Cordillera de los Andes, or casually walking the courtyard of the Louvre in Paris you should always carry personal identification with you to provide the basic information about you and your health, should an emergency situation occur.
This month we also want to point out a new webpage, Rtp Tools, a long-awaited library of running tools and calculators, from distance unit to speed and velocity converters, to our worldwide shoe size table, and to formulas to predict your 100k time based on your marathon performance. And more tools and calculators are being developed as we speak.
Among the new content, check out our Running in Lyon guide, a city recognized by sophisticated travelers as the culinary capital of France, today a must-visit destination because of the many attractions it offers and its easy access from other popular destinations in Europe. Also read an interesting essay about The pioneering years of international athletics (1826-1878) around the time of the first gymnastic craze when competitive athletics started to gain an international dimension, an article now posted in our Running through history section.
More cartoons have been added this month to our Rtp Cartoons collection, new words of inspiration can be found in our Running Quotes webpage, while an article on Guilt-free training runs for a happier runner and a happier family is now posted in our recently inaugurated Tales from the sidewalk webpage; but - if nothing else - do not miss the inspiring story I would now like my pint of Guinness, please by Vince Hemingson, who is claiming the world record for completing an ultramarathon while wearing a pair of boots, a Utilikilt and a world-weary Tilley hat. He wanted to share this achievement with the rest of our worldwide running community (the largest on the Internet, remember?) and now his article is deservingly posted in our Tell The Planet hall of fame.
That's all for now folks! Run safe (and if possible break some world record).

WHERE TO RUN IN THE WORLD
Description of the month - Jerusalem (Israel)
By Brian Carlson - A more level track for an early morning run (before the traffic congestion begins) is to depart south on King David Street (left out of either the King David Hotel or the David Citadel Hotel). After cresting the hill, you have a park with a windmill on your left as you continue down and around the curve. At the light, take Remez David past a bus stop and a sharp left curve. Then turn right on Hebron Road toward Bethlehem. You will be running along a ridgeline past Rachel's Tomb. The road, at first lined with apartment buildings, opens up to broad views of the countryside, settlements and the separation barrier in the distance. Pass the Mar Ellas monastery on your left and continue to the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) checkpoint, a distance of 3.75 miles before turning around and retracing your steps. On the return run, especially if you finish on the other side of Yemin Moshe park by running up Hativat Yerushalayim street, you will watch the sun rise over the Mount of Olives, Mount Zion and the walls of Jerusalem. Out and back, it is about seven and a half miles.

RUN THE PLANET MAIL
While you were running did you ever have a question? Did you ever have an opinion about something and ask yourself "Is it just me?"? Did you ever come up with a great idea and wonder if you could just tell everyone the world would be a better place? Did you ever have a revelation and want to share it with others? Well now is your chance to address any one of these question, and basically anything else you come up with while you are running. To hear an opinion, or run an idea past someone. Visit the "Rtp Mail" webpage to receive an answer to your running related questions or to read an opinion about your running thoughts. Here are the last three question asked:
•Is there a rubbing cream designed to relieve foot pain? - This has been bugging me for awhile since I am a long-time runner as well as a waitress. What nice pain-relieving rubbing cream is specifically designed to relieve foot pain? I just want to rub it in the night before and wake up, get out of bed, step on my feet, and not feel any pain. Any suggestions? - Victoria Drake
•Can you recommend music to listen while training? - I received one of those new-fangled digital audio players as a gift, over the holidays, and have been listening to some of my favorite songs while running each day. I have noticed that some songs seem to empower me to run faster. Can you recommend a short list of inspirational running music that would be good to listen to while I am training for my marathon? - Musically Endeared
•What should I look for in a "racing watch"? - What should I look for in a "racing watch"? I see so many runners, at road races, with high-tech, slick looking wrist watches, and am interested in purchasing one. What are the benefits of running with a time-piece? - Timely Questioner
RUN THE PLANET LIBRARY

The Greatest - The Haile Gebrselassie story, by Jim Denison, paperback, 272 pages, Breakaway Books (2004), ISBN: 1891369482
Two Olympic 10,000 meters gold medals, eight world championships indoors and outdoors, seventeen world records over four different distances, a fifty-four race winning streak: Haile Gebrselassie utterly dominated a decade of running, "a distance running star whose brilliance won't soon be forgotten" as "Runner's World" executive editor Amby Burfoot puts it. "The Greatest" is his authorized biography, written by Jim Denison, who worked on it with Haile for over two years, visited him in Ethiopia, and traveled with him on the European track circuit. Haile's life story is fascinating, detailing his early years of hard poverty in war-torn Ethiopia, his relentless training, his rise to godlike status in the track world, and the good works he has done for his country with his fame and fortune. Most of all it is a glimpse of the kind, fascinating man behind all the records and medals. Nelson Mandela said about Haile "Gebrselassie has won many great victories as an African athlete. He is a great ambassador for his people, and through his numerous humanitarian and charitable works a vitally important citizen for the future growth and development of Africa". This book on Haile Gebrselassie, "an elegant champion and a fine example of sportsmanship" in the words of Olympic double-gold medalist Lasse Viren, has been released immediately after the 2004 Olympics, with the last chapter covering his final race. Jim Denison is also the author of "Bannister and Beyond: The Mystique of the Four-Minute Mile" - Click on the cover to order this book at a special price
RTP MOVIE
Visit the "Rtp Movie" webpage for running, walking, and hiking related movies, videoclips and an exhaustive movie encyclopedia
Danny Dreyer, long time ultramarathoner, took the concepts that he has been using and teaching for years and created a 56 minute instructional film "ChiRunning - A revolutionary approach to effortless, injury-free running", that was released in April 2004. If you are looking for a clear and well thought out presentation on running form, this DVD may be the answer for you. Whether you are seeking efficiency in your stride or injury prevention for the long haul of your running career, this may contain the solutions that you have been seeking. Combine this video with his book (with additional information on race preparation, diet, injury prevention, and lifestyle), or one of the many workshops that Dreyer hosts, and you are bound to get on board with a new angle to the age old exercise of running. Although you can get a VHS tape, we would highly recommend the DVD as the menu allows easy navigation between the lessons, the four drills & exercises, eight body looseners, and additional features that are included. One of the strengths of this show are split screen views showing incorrect and correct application of the concepts. Each topic is broken down into several steps that are clearly explained and demonstrated with soothing music and clear graphics. Nearly two dozen athletes are used to illustrate the methods that will move your focus onto the core muscles while relaxing the rest of the body to run more effortlessly and efficiently. There are five lessons during the first 20 minutes that get you up and running. Here are a few of the highlights presented during the opening explanations with the quotes from Danny: "Posture is the cornerstone of the ChiRunning technique and crucial to building strong core muscles; we begin with posture because it is the single most important factor in developing good running form". Five steps are then used to demonstrate how to obtain the correct posture that is used in ChiRunning. "Leaning takes an immense amount of the workload off your legs and creates highly efficient running, so the less you use your legs to push yourself forward the more efficient of a runner you will be; the lean is your gas pedal: if you want to run faster you lean more, if you want to run slower you lean less". Three drills are used to reinforce this important aspect of the program. "In ChiRunning you will not be pushing yourself forward with each stride, in fact, you will be simply picking up your feet to keep up with your forward fall". Two steps are used to develop and demonstrate this concept. "Few people know how to really make their arms work for them in a beneficial way: follow these simple steps and you will be swinging with the best of them". Outlined are the four steps needed to master this upper body technique. "As you start your run it is best to begin by being mindful of what you are about to do: you have been given all the pieces to the ChiRunning technique and now here is where we get to put it all together". Five main points are covered as the real adventure of running begins. This is just a sample of the steps that are well broken down and reviewed at the end of each segment of this production. See it for yourself to discover additional drills and exercises, discussion of cadence and stride length with clear examples demonstrated, and testimonials from people who are practicing ChiRunning with success.

"A pair of shoes", by Vincent van Gogh, The Baltimore Museum of Art, Baltimore (Usa/Maryland)
Van Gogh painted this "A pair of shoes" (oil on canvas; dimensions 34 x 41,5 centimeters) in 1887. Van Gogh was born on March 30, 1853 in Groot Zundert, in the district of North Brabant (Netherlands). His father Theodorus van Gogh, a Protestant minister, wanted him to be a clergyman but he did not follow his father's footsteps. Instead, in 1869 he started working in a company of art dealers, first in The Hague and then in London and Paris. After leaving that job, teaching at schools in Rasmgate and Isleworth (England), working in a bookshop in Dordrecht (Netherlands) and becoming a missionary in Wasmes (Belgium), he ended up living in the small village of Cuesmes where one day, compelled to go and visit the French painter Jules Breton whom he greatly admired, he walked seventy kilometers to the French city of Courrières. Vincent ended up returning home with out meeting the artist. In 1880 he finally decided to dedicate his life to art and went to Brussels to study at the Ecole des Beaux-Art. In 1886 he moved back to Paris, incorporating in his own unique style with some of the techniques of the Impressionists. On February 20, 1888 he moved south to Arles, in Provence and later on he invited artist Paul Gauguin to join him. Gauguin arrived in Arles in October but by December the relationship between the two artists had already deteriorated, as did Vincent's mental health (on December 23 van Gogh mutilated his left ear). Later on Vincent van Gogh voluntarily choose to be confined in the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, where he realized his best-known work "Starry Night". On May 16, 1890 his brother Theo transferred him to Paris and then to the more-quiet destination of Auvers-sur-Oise, where Vincent van Gogh, in an attack of depression, killed himself on July 27, 1890.
PENGUIN INSPIRATION OF THE MONTH
Visit JohnBingham.com for more running pearls of wisdom from John "the Penguin" Bingham. Through his popular monthly column in Runner's World magazine, his breakthrough first book "The Courage to Start: A Guide to Running for Your Life" and his best selling "No Need for Speed: A Beginner's Guide to the Joy of Running" the Penguin has inspired hundreds of thousands of men and women to run for fun, fitness, and self-affirmation.
Know what you know - An old boss once told me that to fairly evaluate something you couldn't know too much, or too little, about it. If you know too much, you may start looking for details and nuance that an ordinary person would miss. If you know too little, you may wrongly assume something easier or more difficult than it really is. Starting on a training program means taking on faith that you know almost nothing about what is in store for you. Even if you have had experiences in the past with training programs, they have never been this one, and you have never been who you are today. Know what you know, but no more than that. The lessons are there to be learned.
