#day861 and that was yesterday and me doing the #transvulcania18 race on LaPalma. That‘s 74 k with around 4.400 positive meters in altitude... =========================== With a late and thus empty start (don‘t ask) with three of my favorite humans @lisastraighton, @thomasstr8x and the ever-wonderful @jule_vom_berg — and then me - as promised - waiting at the finish line for Jule to finish the race together. =========================== And in between the race/hike/climb/uphill/downhill/speed-hike whatever you want to call it — the zone! =========================== Why? To go #beyondexpectations and to keep my own inner demons at bay. To soothe them. To calm them. To tell them little nitwits to go shove all that self-doubt, self-loathing, anxiety, fear, indecision and low self-opinion up theirs. =========================== And yes, anxiety and bouts of depression has many faces —but believe you me —- yesterday’s wasn’t one! =========================== Need help? Know someone who needs help? There’s @hopefortheday and also German based www.frnd.de all about informing about depression and suicide prevention. Support them where and how you can. =========================== “... with grace we will suffer//with grace we‘ll recover...“ - ManicStreetPreachers =========================== #everydayrunner #willpower #runtilldeath #rollinsband #willpowerathletes #361meraki #runproud #keepburning #morefire #armyofone #runnersworld #ronhill #veganrunner #stravarun #runeveryday #hftd (hier: La Palma Canary Island)
