finished 2nd in the women’s category – time 4:09:43

The Mullerthal region is one of the most popular hiking regions in Luxembourg. Its landscape is dotted with towering sandstone rock formations and crisscrossed by the rivers that created it. The awe-inspiring rocks have earned the region its nickname “Luxembourg’s Little Switzerland“. The region is above all a unique biotope characterized by sandstone rock formations which are as charming as surprising.

A few days ago, on the 14^th of September, I ran the 4th edition of Leopard UTML Ultratrail in Echternach. An exciting trail with amazing views. A dream for every hiker, runner or outdoor lover. A unique landscape of sandstone cliffs and deep crevasses. In other words, an absolute joy to run the Trail race with its 39 km and over 1100 m of elevation….

That RUN

January 12, 2017 by Cris 2 Comments

We runners all have one. That RUN. The run that is always with us.
It is the run that we can trust ourselves to. It is the run that is waiting to get us back on track after an injury or absence for quite some time. It is where we go in the cool of the early morning, in the heat of a summer day, in the fading light of a setting sun. It is where we go to find peace, to seek challenges. It is where we go when we need to push, to hold back. It is a place we go to in all seasons, observing and feeling the changes, until the rhythm of the earth becomes our own, a comforting reminder of the impermanence of all things….

Why I Love Trail Running

Back in June 2014, I was thrilled to announce my very first post on the blog which was, of course, a recipe called Summery Salad. By the way, if you haven’t tried it yet, don’t waste any more precious time and get to it as it only takes 5 minutes to be prepared and requires no cooking whatsoever. ;)

2 WOW years!!! … It’s has been two years of sharing with YOU mostly recipes (plant-based, energizing ones) that I still enjoy on a daily basis, two happy years of regular running and motivation, two amazing years of SELF transformation!…
