'The will to win is not nearly as important as the will to prepare.'
- Juma Ikangaa, winner of the 1990 New York City Marathon.

Athletics

I enjoy athletics very much, both as a performer and as a spectator. My event is long distance running, ie. distances from 3000m to half-marathon. Here you see a list of my personal records and here you see one of my typical training weeks. I am a member of Aarhus 1900's middle and long distance group.

Some excellent athletics and running links:

Runners World,
Ultimate.

One of the things I enjoy when not training myself, is to watch athletics and the great marathon races. In my opinion some of the races stand out as the best. You can read about those races here.

Other Sports

I also enjoy other sports, especially cycling. In the summer I do cycling on the roads, but in the winter I prefer to do spinning. I also enjoy watching Le Tour de France and other cycling races both live and on tv. I also like to watch cross country skiing and biathlon.

I also enjoy studying sports physiology. I think it is interesting to try to understand how the body handles the added stress of training and competition. A more thorough introduction and some good links can be found here.
