I ran this city!

So here is a quick update on my weekend! The highlight of my weekend was the Tilburg Ten Miles, which a running event in my hometown! I ran the 10 miles (16.6 KM) for the second time and it was a good one! The weather was nice, it was quite hot actually... And there were a lot people cheering for us, and for them selves while they were enjoying the sun and a nice cold beer..... I ran, waved to some people I didn't know, high-fived with some kids and enjoyed the cold water from the sponges that were handed out! I also made a old women smile by simply waving back, her whole face lit up when I did that! So cool!



During the run it felt like I was running really fast and good, but my time says otherwise..... I ran the 10 miles in 1h43m50s.... so much longer than I had hoped for.

In case you go running, here are a few things you have to take into account, because it could happen to you!






Never had this thank god!



So true!


Same goes for cycling!


Hate when this happens!

Luckily we don't have to many hills in Holland


Yes.... but it makes me feel tough!

Hate when this happens!

But I also have good news! Just 4 more days and my summer holiday starts!!! Wooohooo!!! Finally! I will try to keep my blog up to date because I want to share with you my adventures and show you all the pictures that I will be taking.  The goals is to share my Sound of Music experience, we are not going to do a tour but I do hope I will be able to find some of the iconic spots and take a picture. I will also try to take pictures inside the Schonbrunn castle, I am hoping that me and my boyfriend can dress up as princess Sissi and  Franz-Joseph and take these really wrong but oh so fun pictures :)  



Well enjoy the rest of your week and don't forget to:

Partly cloudy

So this week I have Wednesday/Thursday and Friday off!!! I really needed a few days off because it is a long haul till my summer holiday. But after this week only 3 weeks left!!!!

So today the sun was shinning, the temperature was great so I decided to go out for a nice relaxing bike ride. Since I have a lot of non-Dutch followers I decided to take a lot of pictures during the ride so you can all get an impression of how it looks where I live. Well I don't live where the pics were taken, but I live just a bike ride away!

I also had a new biking experience.... taking a picture of myself while riding my bike! Never done that before, pfff can you image I ride a bike ever since I can image but never took a picture while riding my bike! Safety first I guess....

Ok so here we go! If you have any questions or remarks just post a comment, I would love to hear what you think if the Land of the Dutch!











So that was my day today! Hope you enjoyed the pics!
