Diary of what followed after I finally succeeded in completing a marathon just in time, before my 50th birthday.

DOWN, NOT OUT

Since 15 November: 113 hours 29 minutes, 1075.7 kilometers
Weight: 76 kilos

Tuesday's training was good. As was Wednesday's until after 13 kilometers I tripped over a tree root. Mainly to reassure the worried looking eye-witness I picked myself up and stumbled along until I was out of sight. But the fall had broken my stride and scratched off bits of skin on my left arm and leg.

In combination with an infected eye, it didn't make for the best of weeks. But I rebounced a bit today by doing 23 kilometers non-stop in the park in Tervuren.
