May 10, 2025,Wanderung Mammutmarsch in Nürnberg 10.5.2025

Such a beautiful hike in perfect hiking weather. Today was the first time I didn't set out alone, but with a few work colleagues. It was everyone's first time, and it certainly won't be the last.

Today, within 2 weeks, I started the next Mammutmarsch.

This time, Nuremberg was the desired destination.

My hiking buddy @Steffen was there again. Together we rocked the 30km and ran at a steady pace from start to finish. At the 2 refreshment stops, we naturally took a small and a larger break, because for us the whole thing is not …

Hello everyone,

Today the time had finally come: We followed in the footsteps of the great mammoth. Under glorious sunshine and blue skies, we got to know Nuremberg in a special way.

At three different supply stations, we were able to replenish our energy reserves with hot dogs, gummy bears, and bananas.
