Sunday October 28th 2018 I completed the Brussels Airport Marathon 2018 in Belgium. Find below my full race coverage plus some tourist impressions from beautiful Brussels.

Brussels City
Brussels city contains the very picturesque Grand Place (on the UNESCO World Heritage list) including numerous extremely beautiful facades, buildings, City Hall and what not. In addition Brussels sports the famous sculpture “Manneken Pis” as well as the headquarters for EU and NATO. You find a lot of nice cafés and chokolade shops and getting a beer is also not too difficult. So what’s not to like ?

Brussels Airport Marathon 2018
Brussels Airport Marathon 2018 was in two words: COMPLETELY AWESOME

The event took off from the Parc du Cinquantenaire and took the runners on a tour de force of scenic places in the belgian capital and nearby sorroundings. The route was VERY HILLY and came by a number of the most important landmarks in Brussels. Alongside maraton it was possible to run half marathon and a kids run. I give this event the very very, very best of my recommendations and you will understand from the race report just why. This is just so much a MUST DO race!

Sunday September 16th 2018 I completed the Copenhagen Half Marathon 2018. Find below my full race coverage including pictures from the press conference with the elite runners.

Copenhagen Half Marathon 2018
Copenhagen Half Marathon 2018 is now an IAAF Gold Label Race and this past Sunday it completely met the expectations for such an event. The stellar elite field blasted away in the streets of Copenhagen, no less than eight men finished below 60 minutes (never happened before in the same race) and on the female side Sifan Hassan won in a new european record time!

And the rest of us ? We just had a superb day in the danish capital as you will understand from the report that takes you through the whole deal as if you were really there yourself.

Sunday August 12th 2018 I completed the Isle of Man Marathon 2018 . Find below my full race coverage from this at places rather scenic race .

Isle of Man Marathon 2018
Isle of Man Marathon 2018 was a tough challenge due to the unlikely hot and humid conditions on the race day and due to the uneven scewed roads (and with full public traffic!) On the personal note the trip was further destroyed by a missed plane in London, Gatwick and high extra expenses for the trip overall and the lost Friday and Saturday in Isle of Man. Furthermore, I was hampered by great pains during the run and I guess too poor training efforts as well, which took me somewhat by surprise.

So unfortunately, the Isle of Man Marathon 2018 goes down as one of my worst both travel and running experiences ever, and I have a hard time to recommend this race or target of travel destination to anyone.

Sunday June 16th 2018 I completed the Tromsø Midnight Sun Marathon 2018 in Norway. Find below my full race coverage from this unique race under the midnight sun.

Tromsø Midnight Sun Marathon 2018
Tromsø Midnight Sun Marathon 2018 was a tough challenge in inclement weather and with sparse enjoyment of the magnificient views on the norwegian mountains around Tromsø. The event was, however, superbly organized and it was of course quite special to run in the midnight sun indeed. I was lucky to shoot better photos of the lovely and scenic nature at Tromsø the day after the race and I will try to return another year in the hope for better weather and a clear sky. All this said, I am quite happy with this litlle norwegian adventure.

Sunday May 20th 2018 I completed the Riga Marathon 2018 in Latvia. Find below my full race coverage plus some tourist impressions from beautiful Riga.

Riga City
Riga City contains the very picturesque Old City (on the UNESCO World Heritage list) including numerous extremely beautiful facades, buildings, churches and what not. In addition Riga city and it’s sorroundings is very green with many parks and nice areas to simply sit and enjoy life. The price level in the latvian capital here is very affordable and I surely recommend – and look forward to my next – visit.

Riga Marathon 2018
Riga Marathon 2018 was in two words: COMPLETELY AWESOME

The event took off from the foot of the Riga Castle and took the runners on a tour de force of scenic places in the latvian capital. The route was fairly flat and sportet most of the major landmarks in Riga. Alongside maraton it was possible to run half marathon and 5 and 10 K. I give this event the very very, very best of my recommendations and you will understand from the race report just why. This is just so much a MUST DO race!
