High Altitude Help

SMHerbs — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 22:57:25 GMT

Dear Fellow IPR Runners,

My name is Sheila Manzagol and I am the herbalist/owner of Shining

Mountain Herbs. We are a certified organic herb company located in

Ridgway, Colorado (10 minutes north of Ouray, Colorado). We grow

medicinal herbs on our farm for use in our organic herbal products.

We specialize in products that help people live, work and play at

altitude. One product that is really exciting for us is our High

Altitude Help. It has been on the market for a number of years and

we have received many testimonials from people that have used it who

felt they were definitely helped by it.

We are conducting a test on the product and are looking for

volunteers interested in taking our herbal extract before the IPR. The

formula contains herbs that have been used traditionally for many

years to help support oxygen uptake at altitude. It also contains a

number of the herbs that have been used traditionally to support

athletic endurance and improved performance. You can find out more

about High Altitude Help and Shining Mountain Herbs by going to our

website: http://www.shiningmountainherbs.com. We are looking for up to 40

volunteers who have previously run in the IPR to try our (free)

product and to fill out a short questionnaire about their experience

during and after the race. Please note that this product trial is in no way

associated with the Imogene Pass Race, its organization or organizers.

Your participation in helping to evaluate High Altitude Help during the IPR

will be a good measure of the efficacy of the herbal product in our ongoing

efforts to support people at high altitude. Ideally we would like volunteers

who live at elevations below 6,000 feet, but it is not a requirement and

those who do live above that elevation are also likely to experience naturally

enhanced performance. Please respond to this message if you are interested

and we will fill you in on the details of our test. Responding to this message

will in no way obligate you to take part in our test. Have a great time and

the best of luck to you during the race!!!

Sincerely, Sheila Manzagol

Lodging/Hosting

Is there anyone interested in hosting out of town athletes in their home for IPR weekend?

I'm open to alternative housing instead of a hotel room and willing to pay the host (preferably another athlete participating or who has participated in IPR).

Does anyone have any tips for the downhill portion of the race? I've never been very good at going downhill, even just hiking, when the footing is loose/slippery. I'm constantly worrying about falling and thus hating it the entire time. I'd prefer to enjoy the downhill (well, at least as much as I enjoy the uphill). I'm hoping there's a strategy for going downhill under these conditions that I may just not know about - thanks!
