This is both the tagline for the race, and how it all stated for me. I don’t know when I started to get excited about this race. Perhaps it was when a few of my running friends mentioned they where running the marathon distance, and how it was mainly downhill. Perhaps it was some of…

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.

Remembering the trail run on Österlen in Skåne with friends from Trailrun4fun. I got accompanied by Jacob at home who wanted to test some Altra shoes. Good thing I have a few…

Having used Altra for a couple of years, I’ve seen both the good sides of Altra, and the negative sides. I also like to try different shoes, so when I saw these new Trail Addict from Joe Nimble, I got really excited. Found them early this autumn on Indigogo but it took months to have them delivered, so the excitement…

We Run Stockholm – Something new and exciting. With being a trail runner… (feels fairly good to say that) I haven’t run much in the city for the last couple of years due to the fright of injury and the boring repetitive loops. I thought it’s now time to change that. Me and my friend…

I have this week continued with my training plan, perhaps not directly according to the plan, but I have managed to get the distance I wanted anyway. Following a training plan, is partly something that trigger me, partly something that I have a problem with. The biggest problem with following a training plan is that…
