Hello 2018
... and hello Ironman. After my IM 70.3 Rügen in 2016, Ironman announced a full race for Hamburg. Last year was the debut of the race and since the it close to home, it was just a very tempting race to do. Due to my maste...
Triathlon Weekend and other Races
I was really looking forward to the last weekend – racing on Saturday, a nice evening in Westport and a spin around the area on Sunday. The hotel was just a stone's throw away from the start of the race and the transi...
New year, big goal
In the end of November I finished my first semester which had completely taken over my life and so it is probably no surprise that I spent the weekend before handing in my individual assignment over 20 hours in the library...
Up the hills!
With the probably biggest holiday of the year in Ireland today (17th March) I took the chance to take a 5 day weekend starting on Friday and lasting until today. The Friday started with the usual 6 am swim but after brea...

Running the Rainbow and in Rain
Last weekend was finally the Rainbow Run I waited for quite some time. It's a colour run, it just has a different name. My roomie and I did the run together and we had a wonderfull time. We enjoyed the sunshine, jogged ...

I did it - I finished my 2nd 10K race on Monday. Considering the Great Ireland Run in April, it was quite a bad race. Thinking of my training for the run, it was a good time. I finished in 58:31 (my Garmin told me I finish...
