From optimizing blog posts to coding, AI is everywhere. But blindly trusting it can be risky.

Stay ahead. Read. Question.

Plot twist: Our 'failed' attempt at hiking all the way up Zugspitze turned into our best adventure yet. Sometimes knowing when to pivot is the real victory 🚡⛰️

Happy Runners after the Tegernsee Lauf 2025 - looks foggy on the image, but large parts have been beautifully sunny. Epic views of Lake Tegernsee, cheering crowds, plus I followed up with #sauna at Monte Mare Tegernsee - epic is what describes it best. #running #bavaria

The scariest part of Ninja Days 2025 wasn't the 2m height - it was trusting myself to make that first jump 🦘 Full blog post about conquering fears (and face-planting a lot) at Munich Airport

Here's my video recap of Sella Ronda Bike Day 2025 - Autumn Edition. Quick summary: epic. Also because we extended and cycled to Corvara the day before and back to Brixen on the day after - crossing the Gardena Pass again :-)

My dad used to have to change money and get checked at the border just to visit France. Now? I just bike across the Alps. It's a small thing, but it's a big deal. New blog post on why I'm feeling more European than ever, thanks to the EU.

The race is over, but the journey isn't. When the finish line is behind you and the PRs stop coming, how do you stay motivated? I've got some ideas.

Just finished a fantastic read: Breath by James Nestor. I used to think the Wim Hof method was crazy, but this book on the science of breathing really opened my eyes. Check out my new blog post for my biggest takeaways!

Can totally recommend the #wendelsteinrundfahrt if you are looking for a non-competitive cycling event. We did 120km and plan for 165km next year. It's challenging but they have food stations along the way.

Does your motivation to train ever fade? I've been thinking about the different reasons we do sports, and I've put them into a simple pyramid. From "no pain" to "body-shaping" and "competition," I'd argue the top level—experience—is the most powerful of all.
