Final thoughts
By Andreas | February 13, 2008
We are almost there - two more days to go to the Thames Meander! I am very excited and looking forward to the great race on Saturday. Kathy and Steve have put in a tremendous effort in making this race happen, and I am sure I will enjoy it up to the last mile - and so will you!
Looking back at these last few months, I have had the pleasure of submitting over 70 blog entries on a variety of running-related subjects. I hope that you found my writing interesting, maybe at times boring but hopefully entertaining, although, since I have always expressed very personal views, I am certain you have disagreed with me every once in a while. Good! Diversity is the basis of learning, trying out different things and reading other peoples views allows one to examine his own patterns and convictions, possibly leading to new insights and a broader horizon.
As you will have noticed, I am not a native English speaker, so thanks for putting up with my pidgin English. Having been born in Germany to parents with a Polish ancestry, English is my third foreign language and my command of its linguistic and stylistic intricacies is limited at best.
I must say that it has been a sincere pleasure and honour to keep this weblog for the Thames Meander, the finest ultra marathon in the United Kingdom, and I thank Kathy and Steve for their excellent work in architecting this great race through one of the most historic and beautiful parts of the country!
Dear reader, I wish you the very best on Saturday and on the endeavours that you will challenge yourself with in the future! Just keep running and be curious where your next steps will take you.
I will see you all on Saturday!
Andreas
