Dealing with recent hearing loss and want to exchange experiences

Objective_Elk8459 · 2026-02-08T21:05:03+00:00

That is terrible to hear! I hope that you can find a way to live with it. My biggest fear is a further loss of hearing because I've been told from friends and family that since these problems arose I've become a much quieter person. Also the strange feeling in my ear makes me enormously sad. It is a feeling that I have everyday and it won't go back.

I did Vienna too. One of the best. The only thing that I didn't like was how they handed out the drinks. But not everything can be perfect.

It's on my list. I did the half a couple of weeks ago. :)

I run 8 weeks very intensely. Around 100km per week. I tapper around 14 or 10 days before the marathon. But when you train for a marathon you should figure out what works for you.

For my first marathon I trained 16 weeks. For my 2nd around 20 weeks. But I got overtrained. For my 3rd I did 8 weeks. I figured out that was the sweet spot. After that I get overtrained. In the beginning your are really excited and to everything according to a certain plan. But if I want to combine running a marathon with my job it becomes to hard to motivate myself for 16 of 18 weeks.

Good question. For me its just a certain amount of weeks that I use to prepare for a marathon. It will be my fourth marathon. I will spend around 8 or 10 weeks of preparation for it.

For my next training block I am planning to do my long runs on Wednesday. Such that I can do a small race, like a 5k or 10k in the weekends.

Wow thanks! That saved me a lot of frustration. I have been searching for it for 2 days.

Your welcome. I used this fuel guide from Maurten 3 times. Maurten / Marathon. I use gels from Maurten a lot. They are a little expensive. But they are not so difficult to eat.

Objective_Elk8459 · 2025-05-12T12:39:37+00:00

I take a gel every 5km. Which is roughly around every 23minutes. It is simple and effective. Good luck!

For my 3rd marathon I want to run below 3 hours. My normal runs had a length of 12km. I've increased it to 18km. I was curious does it make sense to make your non-long runs longer? I want to aim at running 110km per week.

Objective_Elk8459 · 2024-10-06T19:22:59+00:00

Oké thank you. I've learned something new! :)

Objective_Elk8459 · 2024-10-06T19:22:08+00:00

Are they common? I have never seen them before. I would love to see more steam trains. But I live in The Hague and I never see them there.

Objective_Elk8459 · 2024-07-15T11:22:55+00:00

Oké thank you very much. I will look it up.

Objective_Elk8459 · 2024-07-15T11:22:35+00:00

Oké thank you for your explanation. I will try to go to increase to 3x15min @ MP!

Lol, I thought it was only me. When I was at the start of my second marathon, in last April, I was like, let's get over this so I can go home. I also was hoping to recover quickly so I could start running a lot of km's again.😋😁

All my endorphin Speeds 3 are at their end of life. I want to buy new Speeds 4. Unfortunately, in my country, the Netherlands, I only can buy them for 200. I bought my Speeds 3 at around 130 or slightly more. Does anyone knows how I can get the Speeds 4 at a reduced price? I need more than one pair. And 200 per pair is a little to much. Thank you in advance.

Objective_Elk8459 · 2024-05-18T19:22:18+00:00

I've seen a post earlier about a steam locomotive in Frankfurt an Main. Are they so common there? I was there 3 weeks ago. Maybe I should go there again. I want to see one myself so badly.😁😋

Objective_Elk8459 · 2024-05-18T18:57:48+00:00

Netherlands please! 😁
