I love it when a plan comes together. Yeah!!!!
I first PRed in Egmond in January with a minimum of training and almost without noticing. It was 1:39:whatever

A second PR two weeks ago in the Utrecht Jaarbeurs Marathon with an unexpected 3:21:57

And I decided to give my best in this last race of my season despite warnings against it from friends and people in some forums. 42:28, far from the 40:00 I was aiming at. But besides a cramp in the last 2 miles I haven't broken anything nor did I need oxygen or surgery but a plate full of fries, Belgian style, with fine cut onion.

Te morale of the story: Dunno, but I deserved two full weeks of laziness and excessive indulgence stuffing my face with anything that comes close to me. Wooooooooooo!!!!

"If one can stick to the training throughout the many long years,
then will power is no longer a problem. It's raining? That doesn't matter.
I am tired? That's besides the point. It's simply that I just have to."
