Running VS Hiking
Running VS Hiking
When I came back from Australia in 2014, I met a running coach at the community center, where I gave Excel before going to the Pacific. The running coach coached some women in running on Tuesday mornings. I couldn't say no and joined. My condition was good when I returned from the many walks in Bali, Singapore, New Zealand and Australia. So I was able to complete the workouts, but there is one thing I didn't like about running. When walking I can take in the environment in peace and quiet and I missed that when running. Also, while walking I am busy with all kinds of ideas that pop into my head, but during running I was only concerned with the clock. So after a month I decided to say goodbye to running and continue walking.
Running Plunged Into Oblivion
Running Plunged Into Oblivion
Running fell into oblivion until my aunt texted me in mid-June 2018. She had won a trip to The Netherlands including participation in the KLM Scheveningen beach run. She asked me if I had time. I thought to encourage, always! But no, she also registered me. Lately I have traveled less and walked less so I am in a bad condition physically. But whatever I said, I was and remained registered!
Running On Sneakers
Running On Sneakers
Most people who know me know that I don't easily say no to a challenge to try something new if I am interested in the subject. I went to Den Haag to meet my aunt and to participate in the run without running shoes. Well I don't play tennis anymore, so I don't have decent footwear, just sneakers.
Running on Sand
Running on Sand
Early Sunday I went to Beachclub Oscars. There it was full of real runners who trained daily and therefore would do the 10 or 5 km. I was impressed and even more so when I heard that the whole parcourse was on sand. Where do I start?
Where Do I Start?
Where Do I Start?
I started in good spirits. I would see how long I could keep running in the sand. Well it was a 1,5 km run and the rest walking at a high pace. Yes, I can walk at a high pace, but I can't run on sand. Man, man was that heavy!
Never Running On Sand Again
Never Running On Sand Again
Afterwards I told my aunt, now the readers and myself that I never want to run a race again and certainly not on the beach. It was 'gezellig' with my aunt. I played tourist in Scheveningen and Rotterdam with her after the run.
Hiking On Sand Better Than Running On It
Hiking On Sand Better Than Running On It
At the beginning of August 2018 I am going to walk 20 km on the beach in two days. Well, the sand is heavy, but walking should be possible, right?
