Berne, baby, Berne: Located at the foot of the Jungfrau, some 400 metres above the Lauterbrunnen valley, car-free Wengen retains all the character of a picture-postcard mountain village. The Lauberhorn Races in January and the Jungfrau Marathon at the beginning of September are just two of the top events held in Wengen. Easily reached from Wengen, the Jungfraujoch on the 'top of Europe', enjoys guaranteed snow and ice all year round, with incomparable panoramic views of the glacier. The Alpine railway station, immediately at the foot of the world-renowned Eiger north face, is the starting point for reaching this ultimate destination in the Bernese Oberland.

Craig Virgin, Guest Blog Writer In my nearly 50 years of distance running (more like a jog/hobble/walk nowadays!) I learned early on that my training progress and race performances had as much to do with the weather as they did with my fitness level! Except for my four years as a student-athlete at the University […]

Today is the start of my half marathon training plan. My race is the Heels & Hills & Him Half Marathon on September 25th. I'm already registered. This will be my first attempt at a sub-2 half marathon. I expect that it will still be pretty warm so I'm not placing all of my eggs in this basket. I have quite a few more half marathons on my schedule this fall/winter/early spring (at present moment there are 4) and I'm certain I'll be able to get the sub-2 at least once at one of these races. But at the same time, I'm going to use a sub-2 training plan with some modifications. It's a 10 week plan with 4-5 runs each week. The longest run is 13 miles and the highest weekly mileage is 30. The long runs call for a 10:30 pace, which I believe I can do in cooler temperatures, but is really not comfortable in 90 degree (plus) temperatures. So, I'm giving myself the leeway to make those runs a comfortable pace. I will still push my hardest to achieve the paces the plan calls for on the speed workouts and other runs, especially when using the treadmill. This plan was published in Runner's World in August 2010. Dimity (co-author of Run Like a Mother) used this plan and ran a 1:52:14. It's easy to find the article by searching online, but for some reason finding the training plan that ran at the end of the article is super difficult. Here's a link to the actual article and plan online if you want to read the entire article or can't see my screenshot of the plan very well: Sub-2 Half Marathon Article and Training Plan The days that I complete each run (and also squeeze in core and strength training and yoga) will be different than the plan because I have to fit them into our funky work schedules but I figured nobody really cares what days I do the plan, but they might want to see the bones of a sub-2 plan.

DE JUNGFRAU, MIJN EERSTE BERG-MARATHON Een inspirerend artikel van Debbie van Kuijk Voordat ik enthousiast begin te vertellen over mijn uitdaging: het volbrengen van de Jungfrau Marathon 7 septembe…

Wie schön ist doch der Sonnenschein, der sich in Pfützen spiegelt, sind die Rehe, die im Wald verschwinden, die Nebelschwaden auf den Feldern sowie die Aussicht von erklommenen Hügeln und Bergen. Wie wunderbar lebendig man sich auf der atemberaubenden Strecke des Jungfrau Marathons fühlt. Wie angenehm die nette Gesellschaft während eines gemeinsamen Laufs ist und wie natürlich dadurch feste Freundschaften entstehen. All dies sind Erlebnisse, die das Laufen ausmachen, sie alle sind Bestandteile unseres wunderbaren Sports! \"Bitte laufen Sie rechts ran!\" ist ein Buch über Träume und die Schönheit des Laufsports in allen Facetten, das Lust macht, die Schuhe zu schnüren und hinaus zu gehen: hinaus in unsere wunderbare Welt, um Abenteuer zu erleben. Denn beim Laufen, da sind wir alle gleich. Ob Olympiasiegerin oder blutiger Anfänger, wir alle schnaufen, wir alle genießen die Bewegung und wir alle fühlen uns besser, wenn wir nach einem Lauf wieder zu Hause sind. \"Markus schreibt persönlich, ideenreich und mit warmem Herzen, schaut neugierig und freundlich auf Mitläufer und reflektiert den eigenen Laufweg. Das klingt unspektakulär, ist aber genau das, was in diesen Zeiten wohl tut, den Laufleser in einen positiven Flow bringt und motiviert.\" - Heidi Schmitt
