I finished the Oberbank Linz Marathon last weekend, crushing my time goal and my personal best.
See my new video explaining my feuling and pacing strategies: youtu.be/Lih3NUzGEeg
It all went according to the plan despite all the setbacks in this training block and my Achilles injury.

My first long run after about 4 weeks of rehab due to achilies injury. It all went uneventful and I'm happy with the results despite much lower pace and elevated HR.
28km total and my new video is also out: youtu.be/6ZR6tG6Af9I

No long run last weekend 😒 still in Achilles recovery mode! Just 12k easy pace!
But the good news is that I think I figured out why the hell this had happened 💡
I covered this in this week's episode and shared some insights that led me to the root cause of this injury 🤕
Long run 16km, sadly achilles didn't hold and the pain got elevated so much that I had to stop the run.
Only 7 weeks till my next marathon and with the current situation I'm not sure if I can make it to the start line.
**Anyway, my next video is out, enjoy: youtu.be/mFi0b5X49pk **
Oh! I'm cutting down my mileage even more this week with the hope that I can recover on time. Any tips for managing achilles recovery?

First run after the Achilles injury, it went with a very mild pain, so that's good so far. But the pace was extremely slow and the heat rate was very high 😢
Also my new video is out, which coincidentally overlapped with the injuries that the video was exactly scripted for 😂 like testing my thesis on myself first 😁🥇
28km Long run at 3:36 and that put an end to a 90km+ week.
And my next video is out: youtu.be/9rYJG815-Ww
Bad news: I injured my achilles tendon quite badly and don't really know what happened 😔 do you have a similar experience? I don't know how long the recovery takes, but I have a doctor's appointment next week to see.
26k long run, Saturday. That concluded 90km last week.

My new video is out. Any comments, suggestions, and feedback every welcome 🤗
Finally my first video is out, I know it's not perfect, and I'm new to this camera thing 😭 but they say "fake it till you make it" ☺️
Do your thing Fedizens! Provide feedback, suggestions, likes, subscribe, boost, or whatever you think is right.
I'm going to post weekly (it's a lot of work, much more than I initially thought) so any feedback to get better is much appreciated 👍
Bonus: edited using open source tools!
I run mostly early mornings, because that's the only free time that I have. Here is my nutrition routine for various runs every week:
1. Easy runs: Mostly fasted, I only eat a small banana and about 500ml of water prior to session
2. Intervals/Tempo: Easy run + 250ml soluble carbs + 1 gel after the warm up (about 15-20 minutes in)
3. Long run: 1-2 hours before the workout, overnight oat or porridge. 500 ml water. 3-5 gels + 500ml water during the run.
What is your routine?
After a long week struggling with flu. Today was finally the day to push a little harder 💪
Drop set:
2 x 1km
2 x 800
2 x 600
2 x 400
2 x 200
And finished at 3:25 /km in the last interval. It felt way tougher than usual.
#RunnersOfMastodon, now is the time to support the *many* runners who are close to reaching their goals for 2026 and can use some last-minute encouragment.
A few examples:
- @pfernandes, who is two HMs away from #52weeks52halfmarathons
- @steveroyle, who just needs 117k more
- @sebastianhahn, who aims at a crazy 10,000k and has a good shot at actually succeeding
There are many more of you out there. (Who did I miss?) #Running, you are all winning!
See you on the next starting lines.
