We have been doing our taxes for hours now and while I’m absolute okay with paying them, there are few things I dislike more than trying to understand these stupidly complicated forms and rules. Even with ChatGPT support it’s just so tedious. 😫 #taxes
Preparing for a week in Denmark. Two more nights until we leave. Sophie is tidying up the house because we’ll have HomeExchange™ people staying in our house for the time we’re away. That’ll earn us some credit points on the platform, making future travel less expensive. It’s a family from Denmark, coincidentally. #holiday

I’ve published a new blog post! It’s about how my friend Nico and I put together the 5th Munich Breweries Ultra in May. A 80k/50mi run through Munich to visit the 7 breweries and have a beer each. About 50 people joined us, it’s been great. Read it here: https://www.teesche.com/creatingraces1mbu

I like this blog post by @RyanHoliday about his solo-marathon from the Greek city of Marathon to Athens. The way he connects history to present-day values has always been great, but here I feel he nails it. https://ryanholiday.net/i-ran-the-original-marathon/

Where do you go after finally breaking three hours in the marathon race? One option is setting an even more audacious goal and working at it with professional help. Former pro Martin Grüning (2:13:30 PR) coached me. What’s that like? See here! https://www.teesche.com/blog/the_next_level_marathon_training_with_coach_and_former_pro_martin_gruening
Smoking sucks! How hypnosis helped me quit smoking for good nine years ago and shave an hour off my marathon time. A raw and honest story about breaking free from nicotine addiction. https://www.teesche.com/nosmoking 🚭 #quitsmoking
A year ago I came up with an audacious new goal for myself that might take many decades to achieve if it even ever happens. It’s ludicrous, possibly insane. But still I refuse to accept it won’t happen. A marathon run on the moon. Here’s more: https://www.teesche.com/moon🌙 #marathon

@AliAbdaal Life hack: Just do a daily morning run of a good half hour and you’ve got a huge percentage of those 10k steps in, as well as a proper cardio workout. Standard walking for the rest of the day will take care of the remainder.
The past and future are imaginary products within our brains and all we’ll ever have is the present moment. So far, so good. But what else is there in this bestseller book?

Do you remember Harari’s book “Homo Deus” from back in 2016? He made a bunch of predictions for the future of humankind. Has he been right, does it hold up? I’ve read it recently for the first time and published my thoughts here: https://www.teesche.com/bookshelf/yuval_noah_harari_homo_deus
@Plinz I’m curious, what are your thoughts on Eckart Tolle’s The Power of NOW?
There’s a new book by Derek Sivers! It’s called 'Useful Not True' and it’s about the power of reframing things and letting go of things we consider to be truths but which aren’t serving us. I strongly recommend it! Here’s my review:
