Testing the Limits 100km Antarctica Run
INTERVIEW WITH 100KM ANTARCTICARUNNER:DAVE DEANY
Hello Dave or as I refer to you Antarctica man,
Welcome to Adelaide, I know the trail runners and I are happy to have you move here from the Snowy River.
A brief story about how I met Dave
We met indirectly through South Australian Road Runners Club. Dave contacted me first through email when he saw my website and noticed I was looking for a TransRockies partner. Dave mentioned in his email that he was doing a 100km run in Antarctica and would like to catch up when he gets back to discuss sports nutrition, TRR and being potential running partners for this event.
QUESTIONS ABOUT ANTARCTICA ADVENTURE
What attracted you to this event? It seems pretty challenging. Ive always wanted to get down to Antarctica so with the run and climb, as well as the centenary of Amundsen reaching the pole coinciding, I decided this was a good time.
What is your previous experience in ultra-trail running? (training, events) Im fairly new to the sport, having only run my first ultra in 2009. As I like to do, I jumped in the deep end by entering the Marathon des Sables. Since then Ive participated in Deep Space, Bogong to Hotham, 6 Inch, Great Ocean 100km, Kep 100km, Canberra 50km, Bush Capital 60km, Centennial Park 100km.
Training for me is generally 100-130km per week with long Sunday runs 35-70km. I always train in the mornings before starting work at 7am, therefore Im often up at about 4am to get the ks in.
