Soduko Tips

Did you notice that a Soduko grid is made up by three permutating pairs in each main row and each main column section of the grid ? No ? Well, it is. Every time, even. This hinsight is of great value when you’re working your way to a solution of a Soduko puzzle. Try it on ! I have explained the whole thing on the page, just follow the link in the side menu, or below. 

So, take a look at my permanent page with my personal Soduko tips here. I do hope that my tips and tricks may help you to sqeeze the air out of those nasty Soduko puzzles !

Yet another marathon-double

This past weekend my Swedish master Lennart Skoog and I could book yet another marathon-double: first, the peaceful race in Öland, Sweden and then, after driving car back home until 2 a.m. , the track marathon in Kalundborg, Denmark, which was quiete a party ! Please read about the races under ‘MY MARATHONS’. In toto: job done !

My first 50 marathons !

Yesterday, in Sweden, I completed my marathon number 50.

I had never believed that it would be so when I started on my first marathon only 3 years and one month ago…but the madness and inspiration from my many fellow runners has set me up and I have now become one of those marathon-addicts myself. 

Well, actually, I need to change habits a little so I’ll be reducing the number of runs from now on, freeing up time for my loved ones and my new job….and I guess my body and mind needs it as well. Nevertheless, more races are to come and I’ll be reporting back as always.

My next event is the track-marathon in Kalundborg, Denmark, at the end of July… 104 rounds to go 😉

Enjoy your life and your summer !

Meditations – by Marcus Aurelius

Imagine, the most powerful man in the World being a philosopher ! Maybe a hard task these days 😉 However, this was once true… the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius was exactly that….and his stoic writings in his book ‘Meditations’ are as valid today as almost 2000 years ago ! Here’s a little teaser:

The present apperance of things will quickly undergo a change, and be either exhaled into common matter or dispersed.

We tend to live and think that everything – even the present moments – is forever and that we can remain safe and static, and so we strive to please our surroundings, our friends, our bosses, the media and so on in this vain. However, all these people will ‘soon’ die and they excert little power over our destiny. So – jugde yourself ! This is another of the great hinsights by Marcus Aurelius, picked up by Pascal and Dostojevskij as well. Make simple rules that apply for your life !
