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 the end of the year. A few weeks ago, I suffered a muscle injury that is putting my running on hold for the time being. I train at the gym, go to physiotherapy and acupuncture. I feel progress.
With serenity I look forward to 2023 when my first marathon is planned for January. After this, I will keep going all year and aim for a year without injuries. I will very go far in 2023, but not nearly so many times as this year, when I ran marathons in five countries on three continents.
I wish everyone a very merry Christmas.
