8K Run
🏃🏽♀️running now felt easier. I still have a little DOMS - mostly in one of my calves (I think the one that cramped the most at Copenhagen Marathon). Tendon/tissue made itself aware in one of my legs … but got warmed up during the run .. so my bet is that its ok in a few days 🙃🏃🏻♂️😇.
I will for sure not push effort yet 😅

6 months of running daily
I didn’t set out with an intention to run-streak. But I have nevertheless been running everyday since a few days after Kullamannen 100 miles 2025. (For the record: Backyard counted too, but special case🙃)
In general I have since then run a much higher mileage than before it. YTD it’s on average close to 120K per week.
I don’t plan on run streaking. But it just happens these months 😂. 7-8K recovery runs seems sufficient to gear down (taper/recovery).

Just saw a YouTube video from the triathlon network about the Norseman challenge. It looks so cool that it almost makes me want to train for it 😆. Wife says no. Also I can’t swim at that level, let alone bike on a real racer.
But wow what a challenge 🤩. I love how it starts and ends. And the biking elevation. So amazing.

2024 Running Year in Review 🏃🏻♂️
I just wrote a quick summary of how 2024 was for me in terms of running 🏃🏻♂️. It’s late … but now that I have the platform in place to publish it I felt I better had to get it done 🤠
This is my first year review description. I tried to keep it short and to the point. But I couldn’t help slip in a few photos from the races too; to spice it up a bit.

🎉My website repurposed. Now: running focused 🏃🏻♂️
Wife out with my daughter. Boys occupied with I don’t know what 😬. So I spent the morning repurposing my Web site. It was software engineering focused - now it is running focused.
My first race report:
https://moelholm.com/blog/running/2025/01/11/race_ringkobingfjord
I wanted a place to capture more details about my races (reports/notes). To remember 👴🏻 and maybe inspire others? 😇😀
Feedback welcome 🙏🏻

Breaking news: mozart 100 by UTMB 🤠🤭
I decided that I will visit Austria 🇦🇹 in June and take on the longest mozart 100 by UTMB challenge.
It will be totally alone. Just like my first “by UTMB” race in Croatia 🇭🇷 some almost 2 years back. I would love to bring my family … but it’s not super practical in terms of vacation days and economy. So alone it is (slightly nervous in a good way… excited is probably a better expression).

Not running right now … but 🤩…:

💤😴🥱Rest day
Spending the day busy doing nothing.
Mentally preparing for tomorrows run(s) 🏃🏽. Considering to implement a double run day so that I get some rest on Sunday before the upcoming big volume week.

Had an exciting day at the job 😎🤠
Some fun Spring Security troubleshooting on the side (actually a colleague of mine did the hard work - I just attempted to help with ideas etc)👌🏼
Then also some camel route unit testing (without spring boot etc - vanilla Java and camel): lightening fast tests👌🏼
Then some Apache pulsar API exploration. Aim: enabling message analysis etc👌🏼
-
Hacked on some #ApacheCamel 🐪 #Java code today. Nice to focus on coding primarily most of the day (very little disturbance).
Spent a lot of time in the debugger. So I guess that was like meeting a good old friend 🤠
Integrating with #ApachePulsar via the camel provided component for that. Using OAuth.
Still enjoying all this hands on. Don’t miss the Lead Engineer days. It was for sure the right choice to become a Senior Engineer again 🤠👌🏼

Work: Currently building an #asyncapi specification for use in connecting our #java app with our #sap backend via an event broker…
Our #LEGO infrastructure domain experts then provides a service that can scaffold #ApachePulsar topics etc…
So at some point later we’ll connect #abap code on one side and #java on the other.
And then we’ll brag about having an *event driven* architecture!
(Currently sweating 😓 over naming conventions etc … so it’ll take a while 🙃)

Work: Today I fooled around a tiny bit with #resilience4j in our #java app. Auto configured by #springboot.
A very pleasant experience. Only used the Retryer functionality. But easy and to the point.
