These past few days I’ve been trying to get to terms with this race. Trying to look at it in a positive way. But I can’t help but feel disappointed. It’s not necessarily the time I’m disappointed about as much as the feeling that I didn’t get everything out of this race that was possible.... Continue Reading →
I did the same race last year, but they turned out to be complete opposites. In 2018 when I ran the Dam tot Damloop it was raining the entire time and by the end of the race I was soaked and very cold. But this time around it was sunny and very warm. The Dam... Continue Reading →
I've always wondered what was up with the Great North Run. They claim to be the largest half marathon in the world with 57,000 runners, however, Goteborg half marathon claims the same and says they have over 60,000 runners each year.

The plan was to run the half marathon at the Venloop in preparation for Edinburgh marathon, but as usual these days, things didn’t go according to plan. I still don’t have a lot of energy since being on the new heart medication, so I decided to run the 10k instead. The start is about 400... Continue Reading →
