Hello,
It’s been a while since the last post. I haven’t had anything special to report, except for the fact that I was eagerly waiting for the Berlin Marathon that actually could take place this year after many months of the pandemic. My training this year has not been anything above the “conservative” state, but during the past few weeks I was at least able to run a few long runs and could have easily run the marathon through.
But, as the life often does bring you surprises, in the end I was not able to travel to Berlin and run. Last week I got caught by a cold that still prevents me from doing any sports and basically just having to rest and try to recover. The disappointment was obviously a big one, but a marathon run is not an achievement one should do if not fully healthy. With a heavy mind I had to cancel my trip and hotel and follow the race on my sofa at home.
I really hope to be able to find some race for this year, but let’s see. So many events are still cancelled that it won’t be that easy and I do not want to travel long for this either. Maybe next year will bring some more light to our lives and more running events.
