Als promised I went for a run last Saturday. During the Thaisner DörpsRun I could choose from 4 kilometers, 4 mile, 10 kilometers or a half marathon (21,1 km). As preparation for the 4 mile of Groningen which is being held Sunday Oktober 13th I choose the 4 mile distance. It was only a bit more, some 250 meters, but that didn't matter. I even finished in a very good time. After 38:08 minutes I crossed the finish line. And calculating back to the real 4 mile distance I was only 20 to 25 seconds slower then my fastest time in 2011. I had earned my 8th place out of the 59 runners. Here are some pictures of my right after the start and before the first corner when everything was going easy.
