In my mind I am this writer who keeps a regular stream of blog posts that resembles a little depth instead of just a series of sentences strung together to create content. At least that’s what I want to see when I back-read the contents of this website in 2052 ( or when I retire granted I live that long).

I don’t think I have written about De Viskêête yet, even though I’ve been coming here since 2008, when I first set foot in the Lowlands. I’ve reviewed so many restaurants on this blog but writing reviews becomes boring after a while. So this blog post is not a restaurant review.

If you ask me why it took me two months to write this race recap, I’d give you the same excuse I’ve made a million times in this blog whenever I go back from a writing hiatus. I didn’t have time. Between race day and our autumn vacation in the Philippines, there was very little time to sit down and write a proper blog. But here it is, because I want to read back to these challenging races when I’m old and couldn’t run anymore.
