65 days until raceday 🏃

Today was my first run of 2018, but also my first run since ages. During the holiday season I haven’t been running a lot, so I consider this run as an official start towards my next race. March 11 I have a half marathon in The Hague scheduled, it’s called City Pier City. From the start in the city centre I will run towards the sea, and back. It's nice to have a goal!

Yesterday, a storm went by in The Netherlands, and today the wind was still very strong. Some rivers flooded a bit yesterday in some parts of the country, and today you could still see the aftermath.

I ran with quite an easy pace, because it was my first run since a while and I ran together with my girlfriend. Since the stormy conditions the splits are diverse, but that's totally fine for now.

_{Guess where I took the picture of the flooded river ;-)}

• Weather: 6 degrees Celsius
• Distance: 8,84 kilometers
• Pace: 5:52 min/km

Let's hope for better weather conditions during the next run! My aim is to run 2-3 times a week from now on, so I'll run a time to be proud of in March. Feel free to give any tips and recommendations :-)

Keep running all 🏃
