I was supposed to run two marathons this year, Boston and New York, but corona. I ran Boston virtual and wondered if I should do New York virtual as well, but for New York it’s not unusual to have a virtual event. They had a virtual event for the past few years. However, other Marathon... Continue Reading →
I’ve been an AfterShokz user for the past 2.5 years now. AfterShokz is the number one company for bone conduction headphones. The transducers on the headphones send small vibrations through your cheekbones to your inner ear. Through bone conduction it bypasses the ear drums and leaves your ears open so you can still hear your... Continue Reading →
After years of trying, I finally managed to get a bib for the 2020 Boston Marathon. I also managed to get a bib for the 2020 New York Marathon. So, 2020 would be a great running year. And then Corona happened. Boston got moved from April to September. At the beginning of the year this... Continue Reading →
Lots of running shoe brands are launching shoes with new and exciting technologies to try to keep up with Nike and their carbon plate shoes. Not only does almost every brand now have a shoe with a carbon plate, most brands have also launched new midsole materials promising you softer or more responsive rides, or... Continue Reading →
It's summer again, which means flip-flops (or sandals, or thongs, or plakkies, or teenslippers or whatever you want to call them).

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 →
The Brooks Ghost 12 and the Mizuno Wave Rider 23 were both released last year. They are one of the most popular shoes in the line up of their respective brands. They may seem different, but they are actually quite similar shoes. They are in the same price range and they both are neutral running... Continue Reading →
OOfos makes recovery footwear. I've been using their sandals for a couple of years now and I think they're great. Especially after very long runs, but I also just wear them in the summer instead of regular flip-flops, because they have good arch support. However, I live in a country where it isn't always warm...

This was my first RunthroughUK race. They organise a lot of races in London and elsewhere in the UK. During the winter they have the Chase the Moon series on Wednesday evenings and during the summer they have the Chase the Sun series. I'm an evening person and in the past some of my fastest...

I've already written a list with Marathons for slow runners and I've also written about the Marathon Majors and their cut off times. So, I thought I also do a list with half marathons and their cut off times. It is a bit easier to find a half with a longer cut off time than it... Continue Reading →
