Race Reviews
You can find all my race reviews of Marathons, Half Marathons and OCRs here.
Ras al Khaimah – RAK Half Marathon
You probably have never heard of the Ras al Khaimah aka RAK Half Marathon. Which is a shame, because the RAK Half Marathon is one of the fastest Half Marathons in the world. It currently (2019) is the course of the European Record, set by Swiss runner Julien Wanders...
12 things I learned while running 12 Marathons in a year
In 2018 I ran 12 Marathons for charity. This was by far the most challenging and life changing project I had done up to this point. Besides accumulating lots of awesome finisher t-shirts, medals and memories along the way, I also learned some valuable life lessons...
When hell froze over – World’s Toughest Mudder 2018
I ran World's Toughest Mudder for the first time last year in Las Vegas, and reached my goal of running 50 miles and earning a brown bib. (you can read about my experience here) I was also immediately hooked by the spirit of teamwork and camaraderie and decided to...
Frankfurt Marathon
Frankfurt Marathon is the oldest road Marathon in Germany and always takes place at the end of Oktober. (This is actually very nice as it is generally the Sunday when Germany changes from summer to winter time and you get one hour of extra sleep.) Besides the Marathon...
Munich Marathon
Munich Marathon will always be a special Marathon for me. I ran my first 10k race, my first Half Marathon and my first Marathon there. This year I spontaneously decided to run Marathon no 11 of my 12 Marathon fundraising project there, as a lot of my friends were...
Europe’s Toughest Mudder Berlin
At the beginning of September 2018 the first Toughest Mudder 8 hour night race took place in Germany. They called it „Berlin“, but it was definitely not Berlin. It was the middle of nowhere in former Eastern Germany, around a 2 hour drive south of Berlin. But this did...
Reykjavik Marathon
Iceland has always been on my travel bucket list. When I heard there was a Marathon in Reykjavik happening in August, I absolutely had to go for my 12 Marathons in 12 months charity project. And I have to say that Reykjavik Marathon did not disappoint. The people were...
Königsschlösser Romantik Marathon Füssen
You might have never heard of the German town Füssen. But you've probably heard of Neuschwanstein castle, the famous castle of King Ludwig of Bavaria, which is located nearby. The Königsschlösser Romantik Marathon is a small local race that covers exactly this area...
Hella Hamburg Half Marathon
Hella Hamburg Half Marathon is always happening around the beginning of July, and probably the second most well known race in Hamburg after the Hamburg Marathon. Just like the Half Marathon during Hamburg Marathon it features a nice sightseeing route through the...
LGT Alpin Marathon Liechtenstein
Have you ever heard of Liechtenstein, a tiny European country in the middle of the Alps? It is only 24.8km long and 12.4 kilometers wide. But it turns out you can run a Marathon there. So I ran 42.195kilometers from North to South and 1800m of elevation gain from the...
