Meine beste Semi-Marathon Zeit

My best performance was on the 2003 edition of the semi-marathon „Route de Vin“. You see the result above and on the right side the certificate.

Der Weg zum NYC Marathon

I was quite keen to run the NYC Marathon. There are 3 ways to get a place:

• Lottery – Teilnahme an der Verlosung
• Sponsoring – Über Wohltätigkeitsorganisationen
• Qualification time – Qualifikationszeit erreichen

I did not know that a semi-marathon time would be eligible for qualification. This I learnt only by studying the website of New York Road Runners. And I was more than happy once I learned that for my then age category the qualification time was 1:40 hours. Immediately I planned my trip to New York City.
