When planning the next hike, I noticed that I hadn't even commented on this one ...

It felt like I wasn't going for ages - the hiking boots are already getting a layer of dust and the callus under the feet becomes supple - that doesn't work that way!

In addition, there was still a considerable part of… meer lezen

Mega March Special - We go on.

The task: 100 km in 24 hours.

The special feature of the special edition: the route can be divided into a maximum of 2 parts. However, on the weekend of June 20th & 21st. to be hiked. The movement time must not exceed 24 hours.

For me Schissbacke, of course, is a good opportunity… meer lezen

So, finally the time had come, my first time was coming up.

So, the first time that I wanted to try a hundred. So right, in one piece.

It started on Saturday at 5 p.m. I was really nervous. After all, I wanted to hike 25 km more than my previous record.

And then there was my feared opponent: the night!

My… meer lezen

The year is coming to an end, I haven't been on the road for far too long and I've also climbed 2 extra kilos too much ...

Since the weather was great for today, I got up early despite my vacation and started walking in the dark. The path went along the Boker Heide Canal to Sande. A really nice walk with… meer lezen

After many small standard rounds with and without a Frau Hund, it was finally a real day of hiking again.

I had the whole day at my disposal and decided on the "Briloner Kammweg", which had been on my to-do list for a long time.

Fortunately, the weather was dry, if a bit hazy. Personally, I prefer it to… meer lezen

60 km in a row, a new challenge for me. Almost 10 km more than my longest hike so far.

The day started mixed: rain, S Bahn missed, at the start a truck had probably been lost ... No matter, rain pants and poncho on and off!

The route was great, always along the Elbe, through the HafenCity and with countless… meer lezen

The second mega march special fell on the hottest weekend of the year so far ...

I definitely wanted to split the route again, 80/20 was the plan.

A friend lured with a finisher beer in Münster for day 1. So I trimmed the X22 from Lippstadt to Münster a little so that after 84 km I would have sat in the… meer lezen

The Little Mammut in Duisburg was actually planned for Saturday. This time it should be the 55 km route.

The march could not take place for known reasons. But that doesn't mean that I can't hike.

In short, I brought the appointment forward one day for myself and decided to go a little further.

A round… meer lezen

Water ways angle to the third ...

I can just stay in swarm mode right away.

Even if I knew this stage for the most part, that doesn't change how beautiful the paths are.

The stretch along the Ochsengraben to the hospitable village is particularly great to walk.

Due to the early start, Ms. Hund was allowed… meer lezen

It all started here in 2019 ...

I went in my first 30s and really got a taste for it. The declared goal was to do 55km next time.

For known reasons this has now been delayed a little, but no matter, postponed is not canceled.

So today was the day.

It started at 8. I really liked the majority of the route… meer lezen

Many Thanks. But now also MEGA am Ar ... 😎

Although very shallow, this was probably the hike with the most ups and downs for me. The start was great, I felt fit and felt that the shoes were good (almost half the rent for me). The guided tour was very nice along the beach. No one can do anything for the rain, but he turned the actually beautiful… meer lezen

The first mammoth march in Dortmund.

Since Sylt is unfortunately canceled, I "was allowed" to go here instead.

I was in good spirits to speed up a bit today.

After about 10 km, however, I buried this plan due to uncomfortable knee problems.

But no matter, I was mainly there for the hike itself.

This time… meer lezen

Dortmund, de tweede.

Ik ben hier vorig jaar geweest en was erg verrast hoe groen en hoe heuvelachtig het gebied is.

Dit jaar was ik voorbereid op het hoogteverschil, hoe groen de route eigenlijk is, maar ik vond hem weer verrassend mooi.

Voor mij was het de eerste keer in de eerste startgroep. Eigenlijk… meer lezen

Alle goede dingen komen in drieën (tenminste, toch?). Natuurlijk was ik dit jaar weer ingeschreven voor de mammoetmars. De afgelopen maanden ben ik echter extreem lui geweest. Ik maakte me vooraf ernstig zorgen of ik zo'n route nog zou kunnen doen.



Toen kwam de grote dag. Ik stond vroeg op, pakte mijn… meer lezen

Ik had me in 2019 al ingeschreven voor de Hollenmarsch, destijds met als doel de 101 km te rijden. In 2022 vond het eindelijk weer plaats.

Ik ben echter nogal lui geweest de afgelopen weken en maanden ... dus ik was blij dat er ook de mogelijkheid was om te kiezen voor het "kleine" rondje op de baan.

Ik… meer lezen

Mammoet maart Dortmund - de derde.

Dortmund is bij wijze van spreken een must voor mij. Ik hou van de baan (hoewel ik een beetje vloek vanwege de vreemde klim) en het is praktisch om de hoek. Om 5 uur ging de wekker, om 6 uur stond ik op de mat bij de bakker en om 7.30 uur begon het allemaal. Ondanks… meer lezen

Eenmaal in de buurt van Sylt - ik had me al ingeschreven voor dit evenement in 2020. Helaas ging het om bekende redenen niet door. Die stond dus nog op mijn lijstje. Dit jaar was het zover. Helaas was ik lang niet zo goed voorbereid als in 2020, maar het is toch vooral een kwestie van het hoofd - en… meer lezen
