Searching for Jim....

Breakfest in America....

Apparently some members of the Nobel Committee....

The first presidential debate....

September 26, 2016

In the major cities in the US one can see men and women living in the streets in the most miserable and humiliating conditions. Not an important issue for these candidates....

Time to walk....

time to run

time to aim your arrows

The forgotten poverty.....

Göteborg, Första Långgatan, 1915

In the year of 1915, many children in Sweden did not have shoes to wear. Today, we consume like the resources of our planet are infinite, and poverty....is other peoples problem.

The balance beam....

Sanne Wevers from Holland

Sometimes you wish Brexit once....

SAS pilots strike again....

Their average salary is 95 000 kr / month = (10 200 Euro / 11 600 USD)....

Destinations for a time machine....

The final race....

behind is nothing....ahead, a few hours 

Eugene, Hayward Field, May 29, 1975. A remarkable career that came to a sudden end. Steve Prefontaine personified in many ways the "joy of running"....and had a huge influence on the running boom that emerged in the 1970's.

Brexit....

buy Brexit....and get Scoxit

Vacation....

The illogical train....

The not so politically correct street....

Persistent runners....

Los Angeles Olympic Marathon, August 12, 1984 (Carlos Lopes,723)

During the year of 1984, Carlos Lopes had his greatest season. He started by winning his second world cross-country title in New Jersey. In July, in Stockholm, he and his teammate Fernando Mamede ran under the previous 10 000 meters world record time, set by Henry Rono in 1978. The best achievement of his career was yet to come. On the last day of the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, Lopes did the race of a lifetime by winning the marathon in supreme style. He ran the last 7 kilometers at an average speed of 2:55 per km, a violent pace at the end of a marathon. The winning time of 2:09:21 was the new Olympic Record, and stood for 24 years until 2008. Carlos Lopes was by then 37 years old, and this win came at the same time as the big running boom of the 1980`s. This made him for sure economically independent for the rest of his life....and he deserved every penny. He retired from athletics in 1985 by setting a world best in the Rotterdam Marathon (2:07.12), and was the first human to run the 42.195 km in less than 2 h 8 min. Not to forget, one month before that, he had taken his third world cross-country title. And, until this day, he is still the last European athlete to do so. He combined, like the very best....a great physique, with huge mental strength.

Anything to hide...?

..welcome !

Very few....

Janis Joplin, New York City, 1969

..could sing from the heart like she did.

Courageous runners....

Richard Chelimo 1972 - 2001

Never afraid of "leading the pack". Unfortunately, never got a gold medal at senior level. During the season of 1993 he became the world record holder of the 10 000m....for 5 days (!). The 1992 Olympic final (10 000m) in which he bravely participated, is still a shame for the sport.

Across Europe 1976....

..with the Alfa Romeo, 2000 GTV Bertone

How about....

..jumping, 8,68, 8,83w, 8.91w, 8,87 and 8,84 in the same competition....and getting second place !?

Here....today

Our conception of freedom is distorted....
