Heyho, I'm Liz. In my second session I tripped over a forklift on the Theresienwiese and went down hard — still, running society is and remains my favorite Monday-night activity.
THE BEGINNING.
After a very disappointing university sports experience, I came to running society the following week. After the first two minutes of intervals, I knew university sports probably wouldn't see me again. Exploring the streets of Munich in the dark appealed to me a lot more than running back and forth in a gym.
"After 2 minutes of intervals I knew — university sports wouldn't see me again."
FAVOURITE WEATHER.
No doubt about it: thunderstorms, hail, or snow. That's when you know only truly motivated people show up — and I run a bit faster right away. Sun is fine too, but only combined with thunderstorms, hail, or snow.
WHY RS.
What keeps me here: the well-earned exhaustion on Monday night, the satisfying muscle soreness during the week, and of course the whole community. Even when a forklift on the Theresienwiese nearly ruined my second session.
ON THE MOVE.
In 2027, the 20K in Brussels is on the calendar again. Anyone who's done it before knows: that won't be the last time.
