The Runner In Winter - Anton Krupicka

"Running Times' correspondent Joel Wolpert caught up with trail runner Anton Krupicka to see how he runs through the Colorado winter. As do all of Wolpert's films, this one features local music: songs by Denver, Colorado bands The Lumineers and Paper Bird." RT really needed a Youtube version of this for broader expsoure, so here it is! Push those guys for more videos like this.

This is precisely what I needed at a time such as this, with the sickness of winter weather dragging my running down. I can't wait to get into the ultra game after college and hopefully take up residence in Boulder.

Thanks, sincerely.

DAm he the interviewer is so lucky, get's to befriend Anton Krupicka, and at the end like lets go running and they just go out and have fun. Thats cool.

@faulkner24 Breaks are OK too. If you love running, you will be fine. Tell your parents that if they won't let you run in the snow, you will start doing stuff ordinary high school kids do. That will scare them into letting you run. They should know that it is actually safer to run in the snow in terms of potential falling on one's face. More cushion. Just get good gripping shoes or a pair of these detachable spikes (whatever they're called).

@later6 The song at 3:50 is by Paper Bird and the song is Lost Boys. I was lucky enough to see them play in town after moving to Boulder.

@faulkner24 What I did in winter was do Jumping squats an Jump rope indoors.

I would also do sprint workouts in my yard.

They build explosiveness and will help with your mile time but not so much with your 5K.

I want to run in the snow but my parents wont let me. Im young, a freshman in highschool, but ive been told im a really good runner for my age. My 5k time is 18:23 and my best mile is a 5:15 (i ran that last year in 8th grade). i need to run everyday to get ready for track but we are having a pretty bad winter :(

i love running so much!

Does anyone know the name of the song used in the very beginning, and it seems is continued at 5:57? And also the name of the song at 3:50? Please, and thank you!

I've been a distance runner since 1968, and my second most memorrable run was Christmas morning in Ludllow, Vermont, in 1986. The thermometer read dead zero. There was no wind. It was strangely still. I did ten miles, finishing with my hat in one hand and gloves in the other. What a beautiful morning that was. Nothing could touch me. I could have run forever, but was getting hungry. .
