It was a dark and stormy morning, even if the sun soon rose, but I did the long run of this week. The first half was a struggle (because of strong headwinds), so I'll think of it as character-building... Running in the woods, though, was just wonderful. 35/52 of #52weeks52halfmarathons done. #ParisMarathon in T minus 168 days. Distance: 22.03k (total this cycle: 27.16k) Pace: 5'40" #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

I was never really in the zone today, but experience carried me through. It was an ok run. This was week 36 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. More important and impressive, however, my wife is walking a 27k route today ("Amarminoen"). This is a massive undertaking for her, but we will be there to support her and celebrate with a pop-up energy station later. #ParisMarathon in T minus 161 days. Distance: 22.35 (total this cycle: 66.1k) Pace: 5'39" #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

Such a joyful long run this morning. I got to see the sun rise over the sea, I met my mother and brother (quite a surprise), and I just had a blast out there. This was week 37 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. I'm still testing the #Runna app, tweaking the settings to best suit my preferences. Distance: 21.29k (total: 102k) Pace: 5'31" #ParisMarathon in 155 days. #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

An amazing morning run. It was cold (0 degree C), and it was pitch black when I started, but over the two hours the sun rose and I got to watch the world wake up. I spotted hares and a flock of geese, a young deer just 10 meters from me. My free trial of #Runna expires now, and I won't move to a paid subscription. #NikeRunClub is better for me. Week 38 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. Distance: 22k (total: 147.56k) Pace: 5'35" #ParisMarathon in 147 days. #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

As @coachbennett@mastodon.online says, "commitment is not giving up, it is giving more." This is about running, and this is not about running. This was a long run through the cold and beautiful dawn. I felt good; this was nice. A big shout-out to the drivers who slowed down when they met this solitary runner in the dark of the countryside. Stage 39 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. Distance: 22k (total: 210.37k) Pace: 5'40" #ParisMarathon in 140 days. Edits: typos.

Boy, that escalated quickly. My easy morning run with quite some hills in rainy Aarhus turned into stage 40 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. At 10k I just felt like #running far today, and YOLO got the best of me. This run was heavily #MastoRunDK-supported. @nerdd@mstdn.social suggested Aarhus Ø and Riis Skov as good places to run. @jimmyhartington@mastodon.social provided the soundtrack (Radiohead, "The Bends"). Thank you!! Distance: 21.28k (total: 231.65k) Pace: 5'49" #ParisMarathon in 138 days.

This morning, I took the train to Avedøre and then ran home, just to see something else than what I usually do. And yes, I am aware of the irony: it was dark when I ran in uncharted terrirories, and then the cloudy dawn lit it all up when I got to my home turf... This was stage 41 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. There were headwinds all the way, but it was a nice run nonetheless. Distance: 21.94k (total: 271.65k) Pace: 5'37" #ParisMarathon in 126 days. #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

This was stage 42 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. I train for a 42(.2)k race. I'm 42 years old. 42 is the answer to life, the universe, and everything. Coincidence? You bet! But this was a great run, where I explored some new roads (yololy adding 4k to the run), struggled with hard winds, and listened to a decent old playlist of mine. What a way to start the day. Distance: 25.56k (total: 300.97k) Pace: 5'44" #ParisMarathon in 119 days. #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

Stage 43 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. Curiously, the run was mentally challenging. Experience carried me through, but even on autopilot this was an unexpectedly tough one. I probably needed this to process something, and a run is a run. After all, running is my meditation. Distance: 22.12k (total: 324.69k) Pace: 5'32" #ParisMarathon in 112 days. #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

This week's long run was one of the most challenging and most memorable ones in a very long time. It was freezing (with wind chill: -13°C), and I had to plow through 10 cm of snow for almost the entire distance. After 7k, I was toast. This was hard! And it kept on. But I managed, and it was a good experience. I feel like I learned a lot. Stage 45 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. Distance: 21.61k (total: 413.01k) Pace: 6'12" #ParisMarathon in 99 days. #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

A pristine and most beautiful morning. Also a very cold one. But I did a nice long run, stage 46 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. These days, I play around with the hydration vest I got for Christmas from my mother-in-law. It's a Salomon 12 Adv Skin (recommended by @moelholm@fosstodon.org, thank you!), and so far I'm most happy with it. But I do look forward to not wearing a reflector vest on top of it... Distance: 23.5k Pace: 5'41" #ParisMarathon in 90 days. #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

Because of family plans, I did stage 47 of #52weeks52halfmarathons this morning. It was a bit too icy for my liking, and a streak of red lights broke my rhythm in the beginning of the run - but apart from that, this was a nice break from grading papers. If all goes well, my weekend run will be a spectacular one. Fingers crossed. Distance: 21.58k Pace: 5'52" #ParisMarathon in 86 days. #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

Stage 48 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. The soundtrack: my Radical Running playlist. It's good for a progressive run. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4G3UFLeVvtttZZNKF7Beft?si=DFxRVecJTaqS3Lx9NdRxwQ&pi=JWvIfsTlQoqzP Distance: 22.92k Pace: 5'36" #ParisMarathon in 77 days. #running #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

Stage 49 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. This was a difficult run with hard winds and snow blowing; with wind chill, it was a freezing -16°c. So today, I trained endurance. #EveryRunHasAPurpose Despite (or because of) the low temperatures, this was a beautiful countryside morning. And being able to stay in control and even increase the pace throughout the last 6k (where I ran against the wind) was a major win today. Distance: 21.68k Pace: 5'41" #ParisMarathon in 70 days. #running #MastoRunDK

To mix things up, I took the train to Friheden and ran home this morning. This turned out to be a difficult one, as most of the pavements and bicycle lanes were covered by a soup of snow, slush, and salt, and underneath it was a layer of ice. I'm not a big fan of #running on slippery surfaces; NO ICE! A run is a run, nonetheless, and this was good training. This was also stage 50 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. Distance: 25.02k Pace: 5'50" #CPH42 in 90 days. #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose

Inspired by @robchapman@ohai.social, I started today's run a little later than usually to get to run in sunshine. It was a good call, as this turned out to be a wonderfully beautiful morning. (It was still horribly cold, though.) Stage 51 of #52weeks52halfmarathons. Distance: 21.47k Pace: 5'35" #CPH42 in 83 days. Edit: typos #running #mastorundk #everyrunhasapurpose

This run was supposed to be a celebration. Instead, it was a series of challenges. Snow, slush, soaked shoes, headwinds, heavy legs, cold, clouds. I flipped the script. I had done this before. I had chosen to do it. I told myself to enjoy it. I did. Overcoming a challenge is what makes a win. I struggled, and the run was a series of wins. #52weeks52halfmarathons COMPLETE! This was my celebration of #running. Distance: 23.74k Pace: 5'39" #CPH42 in 76 days. #MastoRunDK #EveryRunHasAPurpose
