Exploring the world in running shoes
Last year I did the Amsterdam half marathon and really liked it (it is one of my favourite races so far), but 3 weeks after Berlin I wasn't ready yet to run a half marathon. Thus, I decided to run the 8k race instead. I hadn't entered upfront, because I wasn't sure how I'd be feeling... Continue Reading →
I used to say to people: "I'm a heart patient, but I can basically do anything, except run a marathon". And friends and family would shrug, that wasn't so bad, there are tons of people out there who don't. So if that was the worst implication of my cardiovascular impairment, no worries. I started running... Continue Reading →
I did this race 3 years ago, the 2nd race I ever did. I enjoyed the race the last time and decided to do it again, only this time as a training run for the Berlin Marathon. The race has changed a little bit since I last ran it. Biggest change is the distance, the... Continue Reading →
One of my favorite smaller races is the Leiden Ladiesrun. They have a 5k loop, which you can run twice if you want to do the 10k and there are around 1200 participants. It is not organized by some big company which charges you a lot of money. On the contrary, it is a well... Continue Reading →
I looked at my blog the other day and realised I still hadn't reviewed these shoes, even though I've had them for quite a while, so here it goes. I owned a pair of Skechers Gorun Ultra before these and liked them, although I didn't like the durability of them. So I hoped Skechers had fixed... Continue Reading →
I was in Primark and saw an action camera for around €40. Since I can't really afford a GoPro, I decided to give this action camera a go. I've always admired the running photos I see on social media and the race videos made by The Ginger Runner (check him out on Youtube if you... Continue Reading →
My go-to-shoe is the Skechers GoRun Ultra (v1 and v2). And I've heard a lot of people say that if you like Hoka, you'll probably like the Skechers Ultra series and I assumed this woud also work the other way around. So, I got curious about the Hoka brand and decided to buy a pair... Continue Reading →
I really like the Skechers GOrun Ultra and therefore I decided to give the Skechers GOrun Ride 3 a go. The GOrun Ultra is the most cushioned shoe in the GOrun series by Skechers and while the GRR3 has a little less cushioning, it has still a little more than your average running shoe. Just as in...

(Dutch version below) I have to say that I haven't tried that many running shoes in my life, so I'm definitely not an expert. But I did do some research on the internet before buying my running shoes. Since I have a very low arch (or rather a non existent one), I need a lot of... Continue Reading →
