Today I learnt that there is a boycott of the running shoe brand, Saucony, as it has IDF soldiers as brand ambassadors, and backs a marathon that has a route through occupied land. https://blog.boycat.io/posts/saucony-jerusalem-marathon-boycott #BoycottIsrael #Running

I have really come to acknowledge exercise as a physiological need, on the same level as eating, sleeping or leisure.
Three weeks into running and I’m already feeling so much better than I used to. My body hasn’t changed visibly and I didn’t lose a gram, but I feel better.
Does it really make sense to draw an arbitrary line between physical and mental health? Aren’t they influencing each other enough that we can just call both “health”?

There is definitely a link between physical and mental wellbeing.
If you haven't done so already I recommend following the #running here.
Tons of good people, thoroughly supportive and with a great range of running experience.
Enjoy your running.

Is it weird that running at a faster pace goes easier on my knees?
I’m running with barefoot shoes, always landing on the front half of the foot. I have a feeling that running at a faster pace changes my posture a bit, makes my calves work more and my knees less.
Really glad to have picked up a Garmin watch and to follow one of their “Garmin Coach” programs.
I’m regularly frustrated by too short, too slow sessions, but I’m making faster and more consistent progress than I did when I just winged my trainings.
I know without the coach to stop me I would have already injured myself.
Among the many drinking fountains in Basel, Switzerland, around 30 are adorned by the statue of a basilisk, the heraldic beast of the city. Despite growing up in Basel and living here on and off for over 20 years, I had never seen all of them. So as a summer running project, I visited each, covering a total of 51 km in just under 6 hours spread over seven separate runs.

A short thread →
This morning’s hilly run featured Rocky Peak trail, morning mist, a curious juvenile mountain lion, and views of sun beams spotlighting the valley.
For the first time in a long time, I’ve been able to go for a light jog and talk to someone at the same time.
I crave more running, but the program said “don’t over do it, muscles heal when you rest” and the doctor said “don’t over do it, shin splints come back faster the second time.”
With the weather turning it was time to get back onto my #Zwift Ride today. 🥵
I must sort out some cold and wet-weather clothing for #running however because I don’t want to stop completely over the autumn and winter. At least I get to scratch the itch of over-researching everything related to it now.
The Big Half in 3:09:21. What made me think I could run a half marathon with 10 weeks training? I thought I would give it large but I was just trying to get through each Km by the end. #running #thebigholf
Happy #running!
I wrote a blog post about my adventure in the Alps.
Be prepared for a picture-loaded report😇. (This blog post is just an excuse to post all the pictures)

I’ve got The Big Half this weekend. And in a fit of optimism I’ve signed up for a 55 Km urban ultra next June. https://www.beyondtrails.co.uk/beyond-london/
I may be in need of thoughts and prayers, or maybe an intervention.
Said hi to a river today. 💜
Nice encounter of my morning run #running
3/ left Precipice lake after lunch, ran back down to Hamilton lake, and an hour later I was swimming. That felt great, dried off and got a private bivy spot on the rocks off the water before other hikers started showing up. Chatted with some people, most were looping from Mineral King or heading to Whitney on HST.
4/ quick one for the runners 🏃♂️🙌
