I've never been an evening runner, so on the rare occasions I sign up for an evening race (like tonight's 5k), I have no idea how to handle lunch. I got it very wrong one year and have erred on the side of caution ever since.

Today, a fruit and yogurt smoothie with protein, and crossed fingers!

Hey guys! I’m new here. I just found Mastodon after installing the Vivaldi browser.

I would like to share a series of short clips in the near future of me running the 496 Challenge by Sean Conway. You simply run each day a distance matching the day’s date (e.g. 1k on the first of the month, 2k on the second, etc.) in a month with 31 days. You’ll end up with a total of 496 kilometres at the end of the month. Sean, who gave himself the nickname “the endurance guy” says on his homepage that only 10% of those who start this challenge go on to finish it.

Well, I don’t know if that’s true. I did this challenge last month (May 2025) and managed to finish it. It was pretty hard in the last week. I finished 8 marathons in the past, so I’m not new to long distances, and I guess that helped me. Anyhow, I broke two personal records with this challenge: total distance per week and total distance per month.

I previously posted my clips to Facebook and Instagram and will share them here as well soon.

For the last few weeks whenever I get the chance I do the 3-minute-mountain legs as a quicky.
This morning 40x One-legged step-ups (both legs) and
10x Rear Lunges (both legs).
I am a bit carefull with the Rear lunges because they seem to affect my groin (and not in the good sense). So slowly building strength to overcome that.
