ENGLISCHER GARTEN 100

In the midst of the pandemic, and with people coming up with all kinds of challenges, I decided to run a 100 kilometer around Englischer Garter in Munich on Good Friday. It was a spontaneous undertaking, inspired by Elisha Nochomovitz running a marathon on his balcony and Jan Frodeno, who set out to complete a full Ironman at his home in Girona the following day. I had written about the importance of supporting your local before, and I kept thinking about what I can do to help my favorite businesses that are serving my daily cup of espresso. During my Thursday run, I came up with the idea of running 100K to raise funds for two my favorite locals - Morso in Munich and Cafe Kraft in Berlin.

RUNNING 100K ON A TREADMILL

As I have been preparing for The Speed Project in recent weeks, I was especially excited to use the Christmas break to log some longer long runs (pun intended). I completed a few sessions in the hills around our house, being reward with beautiful vistas across the lake and a number of wonderful sunsets. Yet, I aimed to have at least one 100 kilometers run.
