What's your favorite distance?

Vilken är din favoritdistans? Och hur tänker du kring vad som får dig att välja vissa distanser? För mig handlar det mer om hur lång tid ett lopp tar att springa än hur långt det är.

Race report from 6 days in Greece

This is the race report from my 6-day race in Greece. I won the whole thing and I should be happy about it. Of course I'm happy with my win, and 720 km is a very, very long distance. But it was far from what I had trained, planned and hoped for. But so many things happen in 6 days. It's like a lifetime. And you cannot really plan for what happens in a lifetime, can you?
