Slept for more than 8.5 hours (almost a record for me), then realized it would be rather hot while #Running – and so I ran almost completely in the shadows of trees, equipped with two water flasks. That was quite nice, actually. While at it, I listened to the new Stephen King novel, which, I must say, is absolutely great. I was hooked on the story within minutes, and the joy of listening to the story unfolding is ever growing. Perfect! #applewatchultra2 #audiobooks #StephenKing

Today, we did a 8k run and I got three (!) PBs along the way! … ok, ok I confess: it was the second time on the route and the first one was a slow(er) run.

18°C 🌤️ windy, yesterday was stormy so lots of leaves and branches from trees on the ground. Elevation gain 131 m, avg pace 7.16/km. Felt hard for some reason, especially breathing. I managed to whine so much that we did only 8k instead of 10k 😭👶.

After a week of far too little sleep, I got up early (pre 3am) and started up very slowly, re-booting my brain after a real good six hours of sleep – and with the decision to add at least another two hours of sleep after lunch… It took me *ages* to get myself to start #Running – but it was worth it. Once I had taken off, I felt relaxed and eager for more, so I tried a new corner on my newest standard route while listening to the last MURDERBOT novel. Grrreat! #applewatchultra2 #audiobooks

Wow, ~20 degrees Celsius at 3:30 am. That run started quite heated, but I did it! The third MURDERBOT novel by Martha Wells is excellent, but also quite short, I‘m already 75% through the audiobook (after *1* run), maybe I‘ll have to get some Stephen King audiobooks on my iPhone, they’re usually quite long 😜 Luckily, I‘ve already got the fourth MURDERBOT audiobook in my library🤩 It was quite a long day at work, I‘m up for ~17 hrs now, time for dinner! #Running #applewatchultra2 #audiobooks

I started at 3:38 am – so far, so good. It started pouring at 4:20 am. Hrmpf! And yet, I liked it: The rain stopped after a mere 15 minutes, and temperatures dropped from 20+ degrees to at least 15 degrees. Bliss! And thus, I‘m back in my working week rhythm (up between 2:30 and 2:50), another reason for bliss… 🙄 Have a great week, y‘all! #Running #applewatchultra2 #rain #summer

Last day of these nice two free holiday weeks – and the next two weeks will be monstrously full. But that’s even more reason to indulge in a good run today! It’s supposed to get as hot as 34 degrees Celsius around my place today, so I started out early – and that was quite the best thing to do. During the run, I reveled in my audiobook – still THE NETWORK EFFECT by Martha Wells – and luckily forgot mostly about Iran… #Running #applewatchultra2 #audiobooks

Whoa! From starting out at 14 degrees C to ending at 21 degrees C, that was a hot run. Luckily, there’s lots of shadows in the woods, otherwise I‘d surely have melted… But so K could have gone on even longer. But I wanted to give my body enough rest after yesterday’s longer run. Worked out fine! #Running #applewatchultra2

Today felt like one of these **Let‘s just run a little more** days – and so I did. Great weather, good bodily condition, early enough for it not being too warm, perfect! I was in no rush, but kept a rather steady pace. My water flask was depleted ~5 kilometers before returning home, so no problems here. What a great way to start the day! #Running #applewatchultra2

This. Is. The. Bat. Cave. – And it literally is, since that former train tunnel has been shuttered, leaving only a small opening for bats to enter/exit. There are some discussions about opening up the tunnel to pedestrians and cyclists again, but I prefer it this way. It’s one of these spots on my runs, I frequently stop by and just watch for a moment. #Running #applewatchultra2

Today is spontaneous day! When I reached the 8 kilometers mark, I impromptu decided to switch routes. And it was a good decision, since I‘ve discovered some new corners… And since I was #Running mainly in the woods, it wasn’t too hot (I started out at 11 degrees Celsius, but returned to ~18). I‘ll add some pics in a second post right away… #applewatchultra2

Whoa, intense temperature drop from 32 degrees C yesterday to 16 degrees C this morning. I was actually feeling the chill during the first three kilometers, then I had adjusted and was trodding along just fine. Jacinda Ardern‘s autobiography is a very fine book to listen to, I can really recommend it to everyone. So, after a week of vacationing, it’s time to buy some groceries… #Running #applewatchultra2 #audiobooks

Ooooh, hot and humid! From the start, this day was a little too much of both. But it felt good to be back on my home track. And listening to A DIFFERENT KIND OF POWER by Jacinda Ardern is a great experience – both for her cool accent and her story. Happy to be home again and in the shade, it’s gonna be a brutally hot day. I actually could do with a spontaneous bit of rain and wind… 🤷🏻‍♂️ #Running #applewatchultra2 #audiobooks
