52 weeks with at least 2718m of EG/week.
⛰️🐐 1000m of EG in the books. To celebrate passing 141350m of EG for the year I did today’s run at the infamous “Hobo Hill”. Really satisfied. 🤗
Each round gives you 85m of EG on 300 something meters. So 1000m up on 4km, and 1000m down on 4km. On really technical terrain. The hill is regularly frequented by runners preparing for mountain races. It is amazing how some of them fly down the hill (not to mention how they fly up as well) 😳🫡.

🎄🏃🏻♂️22.5K Run
1/2 the distance of yesterday. Again up early (but not quite as early as yesterday) to fit the run in before other family matters. Well … off to a Spa day with my wife 😅 (we never do that… hope I will not act too out-of-place 🤪 😬)
Had the headlamp turned on all the way through the 4K trail stretch … daylight didn’t quite kick in until I was out again 🙃
Hail / rain / calm / darkness / light :: today had it all 🙂

I still consider the building and its placement an architectural nightmare for the city. To each their own. 🫣 #trailrunning #running
There is a “fun run” in February in town. A mini version of the Empire State building race. A new hotel with 34 floors has recently opened and will have a run that goes up, down and then up and down again, before finishing in the bar at the lobby. Runners (max 150) will start in pairs every 30 seconds. Fee of €30 goes to a charity. There will be food and drinks after the race. Should I participate? Could be a fun thing to do and the money goes to a good cause. 🤔 #trailrunning #running

Solstice Trail Run. Not too long. And not too much EG. So I can celebrate passing 141350m of EG for year tomorrow with a 1000m of EG run (and solve the puzzle 😜). #trailrunning #running
As I was asked for clues: it is math related. And if I had gone for reaching 141421m, it would have been too easy with the wider known square root of 2: 10^5 * 2^(1/2). So what gets me to 141350m? 🙈😜
Anybody entering the lottery for UTMB 2025?
(I am not this time. Primary focus is Kullamannen by UTMB, a few months after)
Night scramble/trail run on my hill with 500m of EG. For the year:
🎉 140000 of EG 🎉
🎉 5500km 🎉
I guess I will be able to reach the 141350m of EG during the weekend (10 days before the end of the year 😜). Still waiting for someone to solve the puzzle.
This workday could have been a run. ..

Last year they “trained” on an indoor bike and were then eating the real traditional Swedish julbord food. https://youtu.be/7HsooTh1d8g?si=TB2KvXxRAkdZx_MR
A hilarious video with the two founders of Umara ”eating” through all their products https://youtu.be/lSlzDqZyp50?si=LR3LqLrp_ohfhGyH - a variation of the Swedish julbord (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julebord and https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smorgasbord#Julbord)
Umara (https://umarasports.com/en-SE/about-us) is one of the two endurance sport hydration/nutrition brands with HQ in Göteborg (the other being Maurten). Though Umara is the favorit of Swedish Ultrarunners - they even serve it in ”secret” during Kullamannen at some aid stations as a complement to the official Näak.
From home to one of the trailheads/Delsjöbadet and back - “half pipe” run, down/up/down/up. Only 170m of EG today. Slacking… 😜🤣 #trailrunning #running

So today 's run had to be a little more challenging than yesterday jog.
So 20k 950m EG through a very foggy landscape.
On top of Soubran met a guy I use to mtb'ing with something like 30 years ago.

Vertical Sunday. Another 800m of EG. Icy and muddy. ⛰️🐐 #trailrunning #running
Mieke and I went to Watten (FR) together this morning. We each did our activities, together apart. I went for a run and Mieke for a hike.
A nice route with a beautiful mix of forest and fields and meadows.
I navigated using a printed map with my course on it. I had to make some adjustments 3 times due to closed gates and "private property" signs.
In case you are interested to read about the chamois (Gams in German) and train your German https://www.deutschewildtierstiftung.de/wildtiere/gams
Ok, why 141350m of EG for the year? First I didn’t start the year with this number and goal - maybe passing the Kármán line and do 100000m was something I thought of. Turned out I did this in August. And then I just went on. In October/November I realized that maybe 141350m would be possible. I will leave this as a puzzle for now: why this number? I will double my donation to the chamois preservation program in Germany if someone solves this. Once I pass the 141350m of EG I will post the solution. So in a couple of days I guess.
Another 530m of EG in the books. Run a variation of my rolling hills route. Found some nasty inclines. ⛰️😝 I even had some 🌤️ today.
Now at 138000m of EG for the year - down to 3350m that remain to reach 141350m which would be very satisfying. ⛰️🐐
Eigentlich dachte ich mir Mitte Oktober nur "ich sollte mal ein bisschen laufen gehen", weil mir durch mehr Homeoffice der Sport durch die Fahrten mit dem Rad zur Arbeit weggefallen ist.

Followerpower: I am looking for the sport (running/cycling) apparel company from Spain (Cataluña) or Andorra that has these very colorful arm sleeves/warmers (and other corresponding things). Anyone seen them maybe at a race expo. I really can’t remember their name…
Maybe @thejtoken knows.
Well, that didn’t go to plan. 50 miles completed before DNF, mostly hilly and in the dark with a good amount of mud. Great course, really excellent race organisation by Centurion Running, and good company. But, I just wasn’t strong enough. I was falling asleep on my feet and staggering all over the place by half way, and struggling to eat, so it was time to retire. Good luck to everybody still on the Winter Downs 100 course…you’re tougher than me. #ultramarathon #trailrunning
Exploring some parts of the forest and mountains that I usually just pass through on “transport trails”. So I went offtrail again and did also some scrambling. And one point I had to turn around as I was entering a “military” area. It was not fenced off but I could clearly see the CCTV cameras and warning signs. The top of the hill is used by SAAB to test radar systems.🕵️♂️🤣 Nice forests and hills nevertheless. Another 340m of EG.

Success: I didn’t get lost in the dark and I didn’t kill myself on the offtrails and scrambling/climbing parts (I did not even tumble once). 10km in Mother Nature with 5km transport through parks. Saw a couple of eyes in dark. At right animal height. So luckily no moose surprises. Frisky cold around -3C. But really nice actually.

This was entertaining to watch. He is a funny guy - Alexandre Boucheix during Kullamannen 100M this year. He has done Kullamannen twice before (finishing 2nd and 1st). Runs Chamonix UTMB in around 23 hours (18th).
This year he got problems during the race . He finishes it nevertheless. To get the “Golden Ring” (3 finishes).
So teen #1 got out of her cave, proposing our weekly run.
So lets go again, 4 k splashing in cold puddles

⛰️ another 750m of EG in the books while touching 136000m of EG for the year with 3 weeks left. And less than 6000m to reach the nice number for elevation gain I came up with a couple of weeks ago. So less than 2000m of EG per week. Should be possible. Though the number it is totally arbitrary and not really a goal. Just nice and satisfying. 😎

So yesterday i was not very motivated to go to weekly club workout.
Still convinced myself to go. Arrived at the parc de la tête d'or it was closed because you know, la fête des lumières ...
So still ran a few k, avoiding the crowd

🏃🏻♂️My (adjusted) running goal is to end the year at ~4800 kilometers.
I’m currently at ~4570. So I do have to work for it. But I feel it is doable given my current weekly volume.
If I achieve this, then it will equate to:
- 400 kilometers per month
- 90+ kilometer per week
Those numbers are difficult for me to comprehend tbh 😂. I cannot believe I have run so much this year 😆. I mean … even now, reaching 90K+ requires solid dedication 🙃🏃🏻♂️

Tomorrow, @pjaspers and I set out for a great adventure in eastern Belgium. We will run the *Venntrilogie* route, from the 3-country point (B-NL-D) in the north to Bütgenbach in the south, passing through al the beautiful nature the _Hoge Venen_ have to offer.
Start around 05:00, finish when we get there.
