Achievement unlocked - 10 mile race

Awww yeah, in 1 hour, 33 minutes and 25 seconds! Which is slower than last year, but I didn't want to race on any sort of clock this year - I wanted to enjoy the experience.
Which I did. The first kilometers were over before I knew it. The last were the tough bit.

It wasn't my best race ever, but that's ok. I had an evening out with my colleagues last night so I might not have gotten a good amount of sleep, I didn't prepare this one as good as any other and I was nauseous the entire route. Oh well, worse things can happen.
Some 24 year old guy died right after he finished, I can't begin to tell how shocked I was when I heard. If a not so perfect race is all that I had to deal with today than I am more than okay with that.

Goes to show how fragile life actually is.. it could be over like that. Seize the day never seemed more accurate.

I wanted to write something else as well in this blog - however, I forgot what that was. So I'll just share today through pixels.

I am loving the views btw! I've been seeing more countries pop up in my statistics and I'm a little overwhelmed by the fact that I do get daily visitors these days :D
Thank you so so much, I hope you like my writings!


Beautiful, beautiful Amsterdam, how I love the


Runners, runners everywhere!


Just before we started at 11.56 a.m!


And just after I finished at 1.30 p.m.


Sweaty as fuck, but happy as a child!
Love,
