Dear Oly, Thank you!
Today’s reflection on my road to WSER goes out to my predominant training ground: The one and only Olympic Park in Munich. I can proudly say that this is where I do 90% of my workouts, even if a bit of elevation is requested. The Oly, as I call it, is literally only 400 meters away from where I live and I have no idea how many thousands of kilometers I have run in this wonderful public park, already.
The main features of the Oly in short:
All terrain, from hilly to flat, from muddy to road, from straight to curvy
No traffic lights and no cars
Two public restrooms (won’t lie, this IS awesome)
A giant hill (breathtaking 50 m D+)
And most of all: A truly inspiring olympic spirit
Running in the same place every day might sound odd to some, but for me it is lightening. One more daily decision that I don’t have to take.
Dear Oly, Thank you <3
