Sharing my trail running experience

2022 Trail running races and trail adventures of

Hopefully 2022 will bring me lots of fun during trail races, and trail running adventures. 2021 was for sure the year that I have done most trail races and runnings adventures, but I quickly realised when travelling to my first race of 2022 that I have something booked or in the pipeline close to everyone…

Gotrun on Gotland – Ultra trail magic

Days became weeks, weeks became months, months became half a year – and I couldn’t get back to blogging. After this weekend though, chatting with running friends and running another ultra, I realised that during 2022 I already have close to an ultra race or adventure booked every month. Hopefully this year, will become equally…

New Bergans ultra light tent, Sonos Roam and a delivery from Salomon, but no running.

4 deliveries this week. 🤩 Or rather 3 deliveries and one visit to the shop for inspiration. In these Corona times, I’ve been getting used to deliveries, but it’s nice to visit a shop to touch and feel before one buy as well. This week, in preparation for next week adventures I bought a new…

Ecotrail Stockholm 16km – Test run

This Saturday, we could finally run in small groups again together with Team Nordic Trail when TNT invited to the first test run of Ecotrail Stockholm.

Cycling to reboot

Today I took a day off. A day off work. A rest day from running. As I recently have started another training program, todays schedule actually said 90 minutes in slow temp with a few burst of high speed, and in a way I really had time for it today but I choose not to.

2 months without a post

Wow – What happened. 2 months without a single blog post. The winter passed and work and life kept me busy. I did watch a nice little Youtube clip the other day about motivation, and how to take a single next step to get started with something.

Long-distance skates instead of running?

The week passed quickly, despite not doing much running. I truly enjoyed the new Nordictrack bike, and I got into a routine of morning yoga. But boy… I missed the excitement of running, and the long run over the weekend. Instead of doing a long run over the weekend, I tested something new. I tried…
