It took me a long time to calm down. It occurred to me that now I would not know for at least 24 hours how badly my knee was injured, when and at what pace I would be able to resume training. I went running out of anger, hurt, defiance. Against all my beliefs. I’ve...
Lately I often wonder why I didn’t get diabetes as an adult. I should have, based on what I ate as a child. I mean, what I begged for. Why is it that one child growing up in the same family under the same conditions will have it and the other won’t. Why is it...
Anyone who’s ever run more than 15km or completed a triathlon knows how it feels when you’re going well, you’re eating up the miles with ease and the rhythm is pervading your movement. When you get home and that’s it? But part of that is proper breathing, without it it can all become a nightmare....
The last 4 days have probably been the hardest so far. It started by me moving Wednesday’s training to the next morning. Now… that was the first step to the wrong direction. I could barely keep it together and I felt like the training distance (which was only supposed to be 8 easy kilometers for...
Lately, I have come to realise that there are some things that 4.5 years are not enough to understand, and for others 4.5 days may be so. The latter category includes iskiate, which I first heard about in this form only a few weeks ago. And since it is not a hussle to prepare, I...
Obesity, diabetes and cancer, also the performance of athletes with outstanding physical abilities are all linked by a common thread: altered cellular metabolism. At the heart of this is a organellum known as the mitochondrium. It is this miniature reactor that is at the heart of the Microbiome Race. But… …before we get started, it...
Is it possible for a perfectly average middle-aged man to change his lifestyle and, in a short space of time, achieve a level of physical performance that he was previously unable to achieve? Do we have enough knowledge to shorten this time? If our experience has shown that a bacterial composition from runners is more...
The new plan is to dope. Completely legally. I’ll be prepared, but I won’t leave it to chance: I’ll use my own bacteria to stay alive while I implement my new idea. I am no longer a long distance runner and I have never been an ultra one. But just as you can enhance performance...
