Welcome to the “New” MyUltraLife!

MyUltraLife was originally started as a way to motivate myself to get out and train for an UltraMarathon.

That’s where the “Ultra” part came from.

What I found is that by living a more active and healthy life, my life became Ultra is so many more ways.

It was fun to write posts, learn about fitness and share that information and fun to make videos.

The New UltraLife lets “YOU” join in the Ultra Fun…..Just register as a Member (it’s FREE) and you can post your own Ultra News, Photos, Videos, make friends, join groups and more.

I hope you join in and participate in MyUltraLife so we can create our UltraLives together!

What are you waiting for….”Click Register” and get started!!

Running through Hamburg

Mike braves the bitter cold of the German winter to run through Hamburg

 

Luckily I had a free morning in Hamburg to get in a nice long run.  Unfortunately it must have been one of the coldest mornings during my stay.

The city center is 5 miles from my hotel so this became more than a 10 mile run.  I think it’s the longest run I have done in at least 3 years.

Next time I am in Germany running in the Winter, I will remember to pack some cold weather running gear.

Join me on my run through Hamburg.

Running Through Budapest

I had a nice run through Budapest on a cold and drizzly morning.

I had the opportunity to visit Budapest on business so took the chance to get in a run through the center of the city and run past some of the key tourist sites.

Making the videos helps motivate me to get out and run instead of just staying in the hotel room or hotel gym.

Running through a city is a great way to view a new location with a different perspective.

Getting in a run on a business trip is also a wonderful way to get a break up the business stuff and enjoy something fun and healthy.

I hope you enjoy “Running through Budapest”
