Her smile … A quick kiss and I’m on my way. 12k to the next refreshment post. I can do it. Running is so much easier with a crew on my side.

Long live the crew!

I am in Lierde, Belgium. I got my Bib number. Now I only need a race plan for the Mighty Marathon of tomorrow. A race plan and polenta.

Next week around this time I’ll be running the Mighty Marathon. My legs are ready for it. At least, that’s how they feel today.

Nine days to go to the MUT Festival. I am out for a run. My legs feel weird. I think because of the strength training of last Monday.

Almost 15 kilometers done of my trail run here in Lommel. I don’t feel so fresh anymore. I guess my legs are still tired from my ultra run.

A question I’ve asked myself a lot lately is: Am I an ultra runner? A long distance runner? Or do I prefer shorter trail runs?

Last day of rest. Tomorrow I’m allowed to run again. Not sure how far I will go, as I have to make a new training schedule.
