March 29, 2025,32. Velmerstot-Volkslauf - LippeTrail 21,2 km

The LippeTrail is a challenging run, not only physically demanding due to the elevation gain, but also the numerous technically challenging singletrack trails with root sections and/or raised rocks, which require utmost concentration while running. Every step must be placed correctly to avoid twisting your ankle. That's why I like to run on such difficult terrain with my forefoot.
