I've never had an Apple Watch before. I've had several Garmin sports watches before and I actually still have the Garmin 645 Music. But I've been an Apple user for about five years now and I do a lot of running, walking and a little bit of cycling. I track all my activities. Not just... Continue Reading →
Hoka One One Clifton vs Elevon comparison
I've reviewed several Hoka One One running shoes before and since All4Running gave me the chance to try the Clifton 7 and the Elevon 2, I decided to do a comparison between the Clifton and the Elevon series. The Clifton series was popular from the start. Especially the first version, so much so that Hoka... Continue Reading →
Christmas gifts for runners 2020
Black Friday is coming up and since I did a gift guide in 2017, 2018 and 2019, it is time to share the 2020 version of the gift guide. Let’s be honest. 2020 didn’t turn out the way anyone had planned. And if 2020 showed us anything, it’s that it is important to stay safe... Continue Reading →
Virtual London Marathon race review
I was supposed to run two marathons this year, Boston and New York, but corona.

However, other Marathon... Continue Reading →

OOfos OOlala Sandals Review
It's summer again, which means flip-flops (or sandals, or thongs, or plakkies, or teenslippers or whatever you want to call them). I used to walk on regular flip-flops, but they aren't great for your feet and since I have quite a flat arch, or a basically non-existent one, they really weren't great for my feet....

First impressions: Hoka One One Elevon 2
In 2018 Hoka One One presented the first editions of the Elevon, the Mach and the Cavu which together form the Fly collection. By now the Mach and the Cavu are onto their 3rd editions, but the second edition of the Elevon took a bit longer to arrive. I have reviewed the first edition of... Continue Reading →
