• Planning the next season

    Time to make plans for next year! Actually I´ve already completed like 70% of my plans but haven´t written about them because I don´t know. Probably because didn’t´t feel like writing. My laptop sucks and I´ve been traveling a fair bit and overall had the “no-one cares anyway”-blues. Then I…

  • Race Report Frankfurt Marathon

    Race Report Frankfurt Marathon

    It has been a while since I last posted here. honestly I just didn’t feel like and I didn’t want to ruin my feeling of non (or little) structure off-season by sticking to a rigid reporting scheme. And frankly not too much has happened since my last post when it…

  • Training Log 17/39 & Race Report Half Marathon Bremen

    Training Log 17/39 & Race Report Half Marathon Bremen

    Last week has been excellent! The boys and I went to run the Bremen half marathon yesterday and all week revolved around staying sharp and being in form. At least within reason. I still consider this my off season so I didn’t beat myself up too much for a beer…

  • AG Data-Fest – Ironman 70.3 Ruegen

    AG Data-Fest – Ironman 70.3 Ruegen

    I have been thinking for a while if there would be something – anything! – that I could write about that people might actually be interested in. Then I thought about what I like and what I am actually good at (spoiler: not much!), but eventually it all fell into…

    Training Log 17/38

    This week was all about sharpening up for our half marathon on next Sunday. I´ve signed up for this run with my two mates and am really excited about it. Over the season we don´t get to do much together – one is an ultra-runner, another a fast marathon runner…

    Race Report Cycle Tour 2017 – 100k Road Race

    You know by now that I´ve been severely struck by a triathlon addiction. Maybe it is not an addiction, but a very strong passion for the sport at least. Unfortunately the tri season is frustratingly short and so I found myself by the mid of August without anything to do…

  • Training Log 17/37

    Training Log 17/37

    Time to pick up the weekly log again, because there´s work to be done and great many things to be written about. I am currently sitting in between the seasons – my triathlon-season is over, but it is not really off-season yet. For the next 6 weeks I’ve signed up…

  • What does it take to go to 70.3 Worlds?

    What does it take to go to 70.3 Worlds?

    After an acceptable start into the world of middle distance triathlon last year I was wondering what my next goals should be. I´ve never considered myself a hardcore Type A athlete, but I still like to see how much I´ve got and how far I can push myself. You could…

  • Training Log Week 17/36

    Training Log Week 17/36

    I had been slacking on my training diary. After my big 70.3 premiere I didn’t feel too much like writing and neither did I think I had much to share or to write down for later generations. This has changed, I´d like to do some more writing – and I…

    Race Report Ironman 70.3 Florida

    Life allowed for me to focus on family and sport and nothing else for three months in early 2017 and so I figured this would be the right time to get serious about triathlon. A quick glance at the calendar revealed that there wouldn’t be a race near me around…
