Today was the Tunnel Run in Kőbánya, Budapest. In this race you could actually run into the “maze” of the reservoir. My daughters talked me into signing up. Running with Anna was seriously cool. Eszter got sick, though, so in the end it was just the two of us. I think I prepared pretty well—even if the training block was only eight weeks. I didn’t set the bar too high, since I run 15 km every month for a Garmin badge anyway, so 14 km didn’t feel unusual.

Just because it’s raining, it’s not a reason to skip your workout. In fact, you might even enjoy it!

You already know that I love running to music - just look at my running pictures, all with headphones on. And I’ve established that you should listen to techno instead of podcasts on the way up a hill to make it easier to get over that hill. I’ve also dedicated a page here on the website to my beat-based Spotify playlists. They’re a mixed bag of music: you’ll find everything from Latin to pop to gabby techno (and more techno).
