Marathon Nr. 385 – Im Eimer, aber angekommen 🪣💪🏼

I run at least 42.5 km (a marathon) every day to walk to every city in Germany! The shortest route through all 2,059 cities comprises 495 marathons. Today I completed marathon number 385! 🏃🏼‍♀️ 📍 The route went from Nordlohne to Varl 🏙️ Cities visited: Diepholz, Espelkamp, ​​Rahden 👟 Runners: 21 🚲 Cyclists: 4 🛼 Inline skaters: 1 🛴 Scooters: 3 🌦️ Weather: Same as the last few days 🥵 ✨ Highlights: 💪🏼 That I made it through the day. After the recent heatwave, that was anything but a given. Holger also finished the entire marathon, and we had a total of 4 marathon finishers. That alone made me really happy today. 📌 Facts: There are days when the running is the easier part. 🙃 Personal fail of the day: The more preoccupied I am with myself, the harder it is for me to be around new people. When I'm struggling physically, I often withdraw and prefer to suffer in silence. This sometimes makes me seem distant or unapproachable, even though it's not their fault at all. I often feel bad about it afterward because so many wonderful people come to the route and support me. Thank you to everyone who understands ❤️ ⛰️ Elevation gain: 42 m uphill | 57 m downhill ⏱️ Total time (gross): 5:16:46 h 💬 How am I feeling? I'm in a bin 🪣😅 110 more marathons to go until I've completed all of Germany's cities 🇩🇪❤️ 🔗 More about my project: 🌐 Project page: joyce-huebner.com/staedtetrip 🛒 Medals, shirts & more: shop.joyce-huebner.com 📸 Instagram & TikTok: @runninggirl.joyce 📘 My book about running around Germany: joyce-huebner.com/buch #495Marathons #JoyceCityTrip #Marathon385 #MarathonGermany #UltraRunning #RunningCommunity #EnduranceProject #RunnerLife #Project495 #Diepholz #Rahden #RunningConnects #RoadTo495 #MentalBattle #InABucket
