Firstly me: running my 54th marathon, and even in the looks of Spiderman..take a look here.
Federer: Winning his 12th Grand Slam Title, at US Open in New York. Just brilliant !
Woods: Winning his 60th PGA Tour victory, as by far the youngest ever (Niclaus was 36 years, Woods is 31).
This past weekend my Swedish master Lennart Skoog and I could book yet another marathon-double: first, the peaceful race in Öland, Sweden and then, after driving car back home until 2 a.m. , the track marathon in Kalundborg, Denmark, which was quiete a party ! Please read about the races under ‘MY MARATHONS’. In toto: job done !
Yesterday, in Sweden, I completed my marathon number 50.
I had never believed that it would be so when I started on my first marathon only 3 years and one month ago…but the madness and inspiration from my many fellow runners has set me up and I have now become one of those marathon-addicts myself.
Well, actually, I need to change habits a little so I’ll be reducing the number of runs from now on, freeing up time for my loved ones and my new job….and I guess my body and mind needs it as well. Nevertheless, more races are to come and I’ll be reporting back as always.
My next event is the track-marathon in Kalundborg, Denmark, at the end of July… 104 rounds to go 😉
Enjoy your life and your summer !
This coming weekend I’ll give it a new try to complete two marathons within two days. It kinda failed on New Years Eve, however, this time I think the odds are better. For starters, I actually get to sleep a little between the two races 😉 Secondly, I’m in better shape now and have lost a few pounds as well. Thirdly, I can build on my past experience.
Luckilly, I woun’t be alone on this feat. My Swedish Master Lennart Skoog, especially, and my Danish running mate Leif Skinnerup will both also be in the races, ie. Aarhus marathon on Saturday and Storebaelt Nature marathon on Sunday.
Woohaa, do I look forward to this weekend..oh boy, oh boy 😉 Don’t tell this to someone sane 😉
A new Danish blog on marathon has seen the light of day. The blog is managed by a young runner Anders Kronborg and his writtings seem promising and kept up to date. I have added a permanent link. Good job, Anders !
