Hi Runners,
January has flown by and May 30th will be here quickly - WOW!!!
As had been planned, I purchased the smallest Class B RV made that I know of - a 1997 Roadtrek 170 Poplar which is simply a large van with all RV amenities - bed, refrigerator, toilet, shower, stove, and microwave. My crew and I don't plan to sleep in this RV that I note we have just started to call the Roadrunner. I expect that my crew and I will just be using the Roadrunner's toilet and microwave when needed. All runners and crew are welcome to also use the toilet and microwave. One runner has expressed an interest in possibly sleeping in the Roadrunner vice staying in hotels. Please send me an email if you are also interested in using the Roadrunner vice using hotels on some/all nights of the run. I note that folks taller than six feet one inch probably do not want to sleep in the Roadrunner since the bed is only so large.
I continue to work on the route book and have posted on the web site a more current version of the work in progress.
The Run has received approval to cross the Columbia River by running over the I-90 Vantage Bridge at the start of stage 9 escorted by two Washington State Patrol vehicles and a Washington Department of Transportation vehicle - definitely good news!!! Crossing the Columbia River has always been my biggest concern with regard to finalizing the RAAoT route.
To view a picture of the Roadrunner go to the main RAAoT web page at http://runacrossamericaontrail.com/Run_Across_America_on_Trail.html and scroll down the page.
Super running to all! Mike

THE RAAoT ROUTE BOOK and CREW SHARING
Hi All,
I have posted the beginnings of the Run Across America on Trail (RAAoT) Route Book (without pictures). I inserted pictures into the file and the file size shot to more than 100 megabytes so I removed the photos and attached the small size file presently on the web site (http://runacrossamericaontrail.com/Run_Across_America_on_Trail.html).
The Route Book file currently contains info on the route through sparsely populated southeast Montana. This section of the route (stages 27-32) is all road and contains very few turns. I note that my use of RR means restroom(s) and PP is port-o-potty(ies). Also, the file contains Stages 70-75 which is almost all super rail/canal trail, ie. the Panhandle Trail, Montour Trail, Steel Valley Trail, Great Alleghany Passage and the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Towpath. Without a doubt, stages 70 and 71 are the most "complicated" route following stages of the run. With that said, however, the route is much more straightforward to follow in person than it appears on paper with many, many signs marking virtually all the turns on these two stages. Nevertheless, I have lengthened stage 68 and shorted stage 69 (sorry, changes not yet posted on the web site for stages 68-71) so that runner and crew can drive stages 70 and 71 before actually running those stages. As a reminder, I will be providing separate driving directions to the crews for the trail portions of the run which include stages 70-75, and runners can purchase course enabled GPS watches like the Garmin 310XT to use to assist in following the stage route when needed/desired.
At least one runner would like to share crew/expenses with another runner. Please send me an email (bp.ultras@hotmail.com) if you think you might like to share crew/expenses for part or all of the run - thanks!
Happy Trails,
Mike

FINAL HOTEL LISTING
Hi Runners,
I hope everyone is running well.
It took longer than desired, but the final hotel listing is posted on the web site. I hesitate to call it the "final listing", but until I start the final course review in April I don't see making any improvements to the list. 65 nights will be spent in Wyndham Motels - primarily Super 8 - if you decide to stay in the hotels on the list.
How long does it take to make reservations? If you are not already a Wyndham Travel rewards member I recommend you go to wyndhamrewards.com and click on Join to become a Wyndham Rewards member. This makes it easy and quick to make many hotel reservations at one time and also allows you to earn free nights by accruing Wyndham reward points. For anyone who prefers to stay at Holiday Inns, I also have another hotel listing that lists all the Holiday Inn Express hotels on the route - please email me if you would like that list which replaces 18 nights at Wyndham motels with 18 nights at a Holiday Inn Express motel. I note that my crew is directing me to reserve rooms at a Holiday Inn Express when appropriate. I also note that I have made most of my needed reservations for the run.
Notes:
1) There is a column in the Hotel Listing spreadsheet that can be used to record your reservation number - definitely important to have your hotel reservations organized.
2) Total cost for the hotel stays is about $6772. Your costs could be slightly different due to some hotels charging less for one bed vice two and I reserved two beds most nights.
3) I recommend that you do not make the non-refundable Advance Purchase reservations that can be made for most Wyndham Motels. Instead I recommend that you make refundable reservations that have cancel by dates. The cancel by dates are already included in the spreadsheet for your convenience. I note that after finishing the first week of the run, in an effort to save money a runner could - if desired - make Advance Purchase reservations at upcoming run hotels 2-4 weeks in advance for the lower cost and then canceling the higher priced refundable reservations at the particular hotels.
4) Staying at Wyndham motels for 65 should earn you 3-4 free nights stay at Wyndham motels which is one reason to stay at Wyndham motels if at all possible during the run. Additional free hotel stays can also be earned if Wyndham makes any promotions next summer. Obviously, free hotel stays reduce the run costs.
5) Should hotel reservations be made so far in advance? In the spreadsheet I noted several local hotels did not want me to make a reservation so far in advance. However, I don't think anyone wants to drive more than needed to get to and from hotels each day. The run goes through the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota in early July - prime tourist season. If you only want to make four days of hotel reservations early my recommendation would be to make the hotel reservations for Deadwood, Hill City, and Hot Springs (2 nights) now vice waiting. This is from July 1st to July 4th, days 33-36 of the run. You can always cancel these reservations without much effort if you decide not to do the run. Other nights of interest:
Day 67 (August 4th) - lots of hotels in the Akron/Canton, OH area already have the "check alternate dates" message and are presumably full. I believe the World Golf Championship in Akron is held that weekend. The Strasburg, OH Super 8 works well for the run, but this hotel could also fill over time.
Day 74 (August 11th) - Hancock, MD has two hotels - an America's Best Value Inn that is booked full and the Super 8 which has upped its rate for this Saturday night - my rate being $132.10. This is a nice hotel (I stayed there this summer), but if you would prefer to save some money you might simply make a two-night reservation at the Super 8 in Hagerstown, MD (August 11-12) vice the one night stay there on August 12th as shown in the Hotel Listing. You will end up driving 21 more miles to and 21 miles from the run than if you stayed in Hancock, but again you will save money. There just aren't many hotel options in this area.
Day 47: (July 15th) Denison, IA has six motels and the Days Inn is full this Sunday night. The Denison Super 8 has vacancies and is the recommended motel - unknown if it will fill.
6) Joliet, IL and Hagerstown, MD both have two Super 8s. The recommended Super 8 for nights 57 and 75 can be determined by the phone number on the spreadsheet.
7) A lower cost option (and a little less driving) for a hotel for days 28 and 29 is the Ashland, MT Western 8 Motel - phone number 406-784-2400. I note there are not many restaurant options in Ashland.
8) Day 40 ends right at the Valentine, NE Comfort Inn on the Cowboy Trail. I can't resist this fact and will stay at the Comfort Inn (stayed there this summer and the hotel was nice) but the recommended hotel is the Super 8 since it is less expensive.
9) Day 42 ends right at the six room Stuart Village Inn in Stuart, NE. Phone number is 402-924-3133 if you would like to stay there vice in Oneill, NE that night at the Super 8.
10) Only one "local" motel provided me with a reservation number. Two "locals" provided me with a "name" as a reservation number. Call the local motels to make reservations.
Long post - but important. Email if any questions.
Happy Trails,
Mike

HOTELS/WASHINGTON TRIP
I hope everyone is running well as the weather starts turning for the better. I am almost done revising the recommended hotels list for the Run and will post that in the next week or two. I provide the recommended hotel list as a resource for runners to use or to ignore as runners may choose to stay at other hotels, camp (probably not too many campgrounds on the route but I did not look into that), travel and sleep in an RV, etc.
I note that most of the nights on the route there is a nearby Wyndham Corporation Hotel (Super 8, Microtel, Days Inn, Travelodge, etc). If you are not already a Wyndham Travel rewards member I recommend you go to wyndhamrewards.com and click on Join to become a Wyndham Rewards member. This makes it easy and quick to make many hotel reservations at one time and also allows you to earn free nights by accruing Wyndham reward points. For anyone who prefers to stay at Holiday Inns, I also have another hotel listing that lists all the Holiday Inn Express hotels on the route.
I had another good but short trip to Washington over the Labor Day weekend. Good news in that the Snoqualmie Pass Tunnel on the John Wayne Trail was opened in July after being closed for two years. Nevertheless, I wanted to ensure there was an alternate route through the Snoqualmie Pass area in case the tunnel does not reopen next summer in time for the Run. I am happy to report that there is a good alternate route in the Snoqualmie Pass area although the hope is that the tunnel will be open for all to use when we run through the area.
I'll note in the blog when I post the recommended hotel listings.

80 STAGES MAPPED
All,
I mapped all 80 stages for the run earlier this month (July - which will end in a few hours) and posted links to the stages on the web site. Since then I had an opportunity to cycle the Run route from Weirton, WV to Williamsport, MD on the Panhandle Trail, Montour Trail, Great Alleghany Passage, and the C&O Canal Towpath. I had a blast cycling the nearly 300 miles of trail used for the Run Across America route which I had not yet seen. Great trail, fantastic trestles, nice tunnels and scenic river views - I can't wait to get back there in April 2012 when I will cycle those trail miles again prior to the Run. I have to plug Vespa (vespapower.com) for enhancing my body's ability to do the ride and recover well for cycling the next day. To be exact I cycled 435 miles in a seven day period.
So I had a hearty laugh after I finished mapping the 80 stages and added up the total mileage for the Run. The total was 3359.57 miles which averages out to 41.995 miles per day - just under the goal of keeping the average daily stage to less than 42 miles a day. Based on my great cycling adventure I will cut about seven tenths of a mile from stage 75, move the end point of stage 73 to make it longer by about a mile (which shortens stage 74 by that corresponding distance), and change the route through Pittsburgh where there is still some road to navigate between the transition of the Great Alleghany Passage and the Montour Trail. The currently mapped road miles (which I found out were awful) will be removed and more new trail included. This change affects the last few miles of the presently mapped stage 70 and first few miles of stage 71. I am sure there will be more small changes to the route as time passes. For example, I don't really like the end location for stage 79.
If you have any comments on the mapped stages, please send.
Happy Trails,
Mike

SUPER TRIP OUT WEST
I have never run a bad course. Well, the inaugural Dogwood Canyon 50K was a less than desirable course, and there is way too much up and down on steep trail in the Wasatch Front 100 Miler to suit my rail-trail taste, but of course I want to go back to both races!!! I digress.
Heidi and I had a great trip out west checking out the Run Across America course. Montana - WOW, WOW, WOW, a triple wow. We were treated to great scenery, and just as importantly many miles of road had a nice shoulder to run on! On one scenic 25 mile section of Montana (route 294 which passes through Martinsdale) only four cars passed us as we headed east in the car. On this particular section of the course I especially enjoyed the views of the old rail line which I believe is the same abandoned rail line used by the John Wayne Trail in Washington and continued with the paved Trail of the Couer d'Alenes in Idaho, but I am not sure. Maybe some day this portion of old rail line will become a public trail also.
Good news - found a better route through central Montana that shortens the course by 14 miles!!!
On the not so good news front however we can not run through the Cedar River Watershed in Washington. Going around the Watershed adds 23 miles to the course I most prefer to take. I opened up the post writing about courses because I am still looking for the best route through the western 2/3 of Washington. It is good to have options, but a firm course would be better. I will head back to Washington in September to resolve the issue and commence generating the exact stage start/end points. I note that the shortest possible route involves running/hiking 10 miles of hilly single-track trail. If anyone has any positive or negative thoughts on that please let me know.
I praised the scenery in Montana but that doesn't mean that the scenery in Washington, Idaho, and South Dakota is any less spectacular. In case my writing does not reflect, I am definitely excited about the route through the west. The river and lake crossings and views in Idaho should simply not be missed!
Switching subjects - sharing crews.
- If you have crew and you would like to crew another runner also please let me know. I note that I don't believe my crew is in a position to crew other runners - although runners running with/near me have access to the Samuelson crew vehicle (which I still expect to be the smallest motor home out there that one can rent or buy).
- If you don't have crew and you would like me to put your name out there requesting shared crew let me know.
- I have put out feelers - but have received no positive replies to this point - about folks volunteering to be a paid crew person for one or more runners. If it interests you to have a paid crew person, let me know.
If I have not said so before, it will be challenging for a crew person to crew for two or more runners crossing the country who will run at different paces.
Reminder that LANY11 starts Sunday - LANYfootrace.com will hopefully have great reports for all to read!
