Shifting Focus: Embracing Cycling and Hiking
The past few weeks have seen a transition from running to new outdoor adventures.

Enjoying Scenic Rides in Nature Reserves
Recently, we’ve experienced two stunning days that allowed me to hit the road for a few kilometers, reveling in the crisp air and sunshine. We even combined a scenic bike ride with a short hike in a nearby nature reserve. Dutch weather did its best to throw a wrench in the plans, but any time spent outdoors, especially cycling and hiking, is time well spent.
