Lichtenwald half marathon

Only 7 days after the successful mud run I went to a small village in the Swabian Alb to take part in a mountain half marathon organized by a friend. It's one of my favorite runs where I have been the last three years already.

Besides meeting friends of my marathon circle I was really fast and became 19th overall and second in my age group. The continuous training since January finally pays off.

Strongman, Weeze

The long and hard training in the woods around Mannheim ;) finally did pay off. I went with friends to Weeze, a former army base in Northern Germany near the Dutch border, to take part in the mud race. And I became 295th from over 5000 participants.



See some videos and articles about the race on the official site.

The last days...

...of Strongman training. :)



edit: PS: When watching this post Astrid mentioned that her involvement in the washing process of this trouser is worth a notice. Yes it is! Thanks a lot! You know I love you!
