The first marathon of the year was completed today in Vallensbæk. The LNBK Vejleåløbet was a beautiful route that had to be completed six times in a scenic area. The organizer had arranged for really good catering that has not been seen better. An old acquaintance, Rikke Thestrup ran her 100th marathon and treated us […]

Today I ran my fifth and last marathon of the year. After being in four different countries during the year, I finished with another race in my home country. The Advent Retro Christmas Run Kokkedal was well organized with a very nice depot that offered everything the heart desires. After the race, mulled wine and […]

On Saturday I completed the fourth marathon of the year in the fourth country of the year. At the same time, it was an anniversary race, as it is the 25th country in which I have run a marathon. This in 25 years. In Norway’s capital, the Oslo Marathon was held in optimal weather. It […]

On 4 July 2023, I was named bird king of the year in Roskilde Bird Shooting Association. In doing so, I followed in the footsteps of many proud men who before me have enjoyed the same title since 1787. For me it was quite special, as it was 50 years since I got my first […]

Today, the third marathon of the year was completed, on the third continent of the year. It didn’t turn into long flights with changing several times zones this time. It was just two kilometers from my residence in my hometown. Roskilde Marathon route 3 is a great race on paths and roads around Himmelev, Veddelev […]

After five years with four canceled “The Great Wall Marathon” due to the corona pandemic, it was great to come back and run on my “home track”. The temperature was extremely high, one of the hottest days the race has offered. But as always, it was a good and fantastic experience, completing the iconic race […]

On the one-year anniversary of my previous marathon, it was finally time for the magical 42.195 kilometers again. The involuntary long break is due to surgery and several injuries. The new experience of a lifetime was the “Lost City Marathon” in Mexico. It was a fantastic day, but also a hard day. We started at […]

Today’s challenge was “Success Marathon” in Næstved. I got through and thus lived up to the name of the marathon. The run was a quarter marathon that had to be completed four times. The runners themselves were responsible for timing and catering. Thus it was a Cannonball race. It rained most of the day, but […]

The first marathon of the year was completed today as far away from home as possible. Again, it was the first edition of a race with Albatros Adventure Marathons, the 14th in the series. First Light Marathon was held in Tairāwhiti Gisborne, Aotearoa New Zealand. Thus, on the world’s unofficial 8th continent, Zealandia. The name […]

Today I should have run the 10th marathon of the year. I have not previously run a double-digit number of marathons in a calendar year. It wasn’t supposed to be like that. I must leave 2022 with nine pieces in the “belt”, which is a tangent to 2003. Maybe I have tightened the “bow” at […]
