    We met Arlen at JJ and had no idea who he was at the time. He was a great person to share trail stories with. We are new fans!

    It's interesting to hear Arlen was injured at Jackpot. I watched him all day and actually mentioned something about his gait being uneven, and was told "That's pretty much how he runs"... I wonder if his injury indeed affected his stride.

      He said in another interview that his injury did effect his stride.

      Sadly, Arlen is underestimated and overlooked by many. It’s crazy.

    Respect Arlen on his social media stance. Maybe there's some middle ground for him (blogs/interviews/etc.) to spread his positive message/inspire/etc.

    • @runsingletrack
      @runsingletrack  2 года назад +2

      I agree..I think he has valid points about twitter, instagram, tik tok, etc. But I think blogging would be a really positive/sustainable medium. Same with RUclips.

      Agreed! Glick is the man East of the Mississippi , period. If you sleep on him in a mountain race, the field will pay! This guy is legit! Say his Name!

      @@runsingletrack wasnt necessarily talking about Arlen running BR. Was making the point there is plenty of single track very hilly terrain in Ohio.

      @@marlinweekley51 right on..and I agree! with respect to the "can you train for this stuff in Ohio?" question, I was trying to frame it in a way so Arlen could dispel (if he wanted to) any concerns from fans

      @@runsingletrack i live in Illinois where everyone thinks the world is flat and thats true compared to the big mountains. I run pikes peak every year and nothing more exciting that RRR in the GC. But here in illinois we have (like most states east of the Mississippi) a tuff race probably few have heard of. Cry Me A River 100 has 23,500’ of elevation gain - 50% more than Leadville although not at altitude. Really enjoy your interviews and discussions, i always learn a lot. Thanks 👍🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️

      Elevation Gain = approx. 8000 ft/100M. Pretty good for “flat” Ohio.
