Vegan recipes and workout inspiration
Why is it that learning something new is getting harder and harder the older we get? Or is it only a preconceived notion? Maybe we're just lazy and think that we already know what we like and what we want to do in our spare time when we're adults. I d
Start Skateboarding at 36
The Laugavegurinn 55K ultramarathon is now only two months away. Even though I have been preparing for some time now, it got real when I booked the flight tickets and accomm
Going for 55K: Week 24 – 26
Let's get something out of the way immediately. I love cookies. Always have, always will. I prefer cookies rather than candy or any other sweets really so in a way it's surprising that it took me so long to make a cookie recipe. This recipe is worth the w
Vegan Breakfast Cookies
It is hard to grow tired of smoothie bowls, isn't it? The combinations are endless and they just taste so darn good! I've made some other smoothie bowls earlier, more specifically the dra

Different types of detox water have been around for a long time, but for some reason, it doesn't seem to stick. Now, don't get me wrong, detox water is no silver bullet that will solve all or some of the problems you are experiencing but it could help wit
Why You Should Drink Detox Water
For the last two weeks, I have solely focused on trail running and completely removed the road running from my training routine. The feeling it gives to be out in the forest/jungle and just be running for because you like running is something else. I hav
Going for 55K: Week 19 & 20
Last week was a way better running week than previous weeks. At the moment I am shifting focus from running fast to running for an extended period of time. All the trails here in Hong Kong really helps when it comes to doing long sessions with heavy climb

Hi, and sorry for the (very) delayed update. It's been two busy weeks with lots to do and we also had a visit by my mother-in-law that made the training schedule go kaputt. On the flip-side, though I've been out on a lot of hikes with the dog
Going for 55K: Week 16 & 17
With the new family member, our dog Cola, there have been some changes to the training schedule and routines here at the house. First of all, the morning training has been moved to the evening and during the day, long walks and hikes have been added. All

We just got a dog here in the family, which is great! It takes some time though so the preparations for everything has to be pushed down to second place. We adopted the dog from a rescue centre, and she's around 6-7 months old and hasn't lived in a house
Going for 55K: Week 14
This week the government decided to prematurely close all schools and prolong the Chinese New Year Holiday due to a rather serious outbreak of the flu. This kind of threw my planned training off track and I had to do some ad-hoc changes. Now I have a 7-ye
Going for 55K: Week 13
Sometimes it's hard to really go all gung-ho at the gym. Maybe you meet a friend, maybe you read a text message on your phone, or maybe (as in my case) you're having difficulties knowing how long a minute is without looking at a clock. This is all good, w
How to make your workouts more intense
