Why summer sucks!

Hi y'all

I'm probably gonna be the most impopular person this orb we call earth has ever seen (okay I can think of a few humans worse than me but still...) most people will not like my next sentence and I'm probably gonna break some feeble little feelings but I don't care. I need to say this: SUMMER SUCKS BALLS!! Why?

Well first off: it is either too hot to have a nice run which means you have to get up at ungodly hours just because you do have that training sessions going on because fuck yeah...marathon ain't gonna frekkin run itself..OOOOR all hell ends up right above your head leaving you drenched to the bone and completely moritified because of that incredible thunderstorm you got caught up in. And than there's the BUGS. So many frekking bugs....My arms have been under attack by f if I know what kind of asshole bug but it ITCHES....soooooo badly....it itches like there's bugs crawling under my skin. I am not kidding you!! AND to top it off....I ATE A BUG....seriously...I ate one!! AND DID I MENTION I'm a pescotarian??!! A GD fly flew into my mouth and I swallowed it right after it nearly choked me. 

Now that is not the end of it...ooohnooo...summer burns your skin even if you did apply a factor 50 sunscreen that is sweatproof and reaks of sticky tropical beach and won't properly come off in the shower thus making the stuff pointless as is. Pffff and food...I have to eat because marathon-me will eat my muscles if I don't but the weather is too intens to get any craving at all so I end up eating either soup or salad.

Also...the summer runners....the ones that creep out of their hibernation pidgeon holes, dress up like barbie and run like Phoebe with like 6 other Phoebes completely blocking all your space  so you have to slow down which I really don't wanna do because all I want is for the hot mess called running to end.

Summer sucks. It sucks. I'm sorry all you summer beach hippies but I can't wait for my favorite season to begin. I want this hot daunting sweat shit to end. Not because I don't like stretching out on a huge beach towel and going for a swim to cool off, hang in the sun and have a BBQ with friends or just have an amazing time with my super amazing husband man....NOOOOO I want this over with because I need my space and I need my runs and summer is messing it all up. So summer sucks balls and I wish fall was here.

That's it for now,
keep it unreal and make it happen
no limits no regrets
until we read again, as always
love Marlies

Breaking taboos: The five stages of Runner's trots

Hi y'all After yet another week of teaching and dealing with normal life it seems to become a little easier to combine it all. I wrap my running schedule around my commuter distances to work and that helps. If I'm not running than I'm riding my bicycle to and from work. It's about an 11 or 13 km bike ride depending on the route I take. So switching biking to work for running back makes up for the 11km on Thursday. Now the title of this blog should be warning enough. So if you do not enjoy the dirty parts of running than by all means...STOP READING RIGHT NOW AND GO ABOUT YOUR NORMAL BUSINESS!! Good for you. Even after a fair warning you have decided to stick with me and read on. As you are well aware of I'm running for MLDS (CLICK HERE TO DONATE) a foundation that fights to create funding to help people with stomach/liver/bowel issues. Now after the past few weeks I figured let's see what is happening to me on those 8km-something-runs when I am in dire need of...

The magic of numbers

Hi Y'all, "Anything in life can be measured" someone once told me. I think it was a mathmatician who said it and probably the love of my life since he is one. At that time I didn't think much of it but lately that quote keeps popping up in my head. You know the thing is I am once again completely mesmerized by my second love which is running. I am completely in it's grips and I surrendered to it like cookie monster would to cookies. Right now all I can think of and all I really want to do is run my own runs, go to classes on running, talk to other runners about running and coach other runners. There is nothing else I seriously want to do. I can't read anything unless it's running related and the only thing I feel good doing when I'm not running, coaching or preparing classes is lying on my couch watching Netflix wondering where and when to plan and plot and scheme our next vacation that most definately should include a run or stunning nature so I c...

The will to succeed....

Hi y'all, The world is filled with wishes, dreams, hopes and fears and I'm happy this tiny orb has all of m and yet that longing, that need, that hope for things to happen or maybe even the fear for them won't ever make anything happen. A dream alone will get you through a dark time but it won't make the night go away. Hope for better times will provide you with some sort of elastic band that might stretch a little further but it won't get you over that gap. A wish is nothing more than a whisper over candle light or a shooting star blasted into a universe that knows no sound and fears are the seeimingly unbreakable ties your mind has you wrapped in. The world won't give you anything, the universe can't hear you. People might and hopefully your mind will. Did you ever experience the absolute need to do something, no doubts nor fears about weather or not you're able to? That is exactly how I felt the first time I started training for a marathon. I wanted...
