As I opened my eyes early in the morning I felt energetic, optimistic and frisky. And couldn’t wait to start walking, with a headlight, because it was still dark outside. My mind slowly calmed down so I finally could enjoy walking through small villages, forests, farm fields and meadows.
Freedom and playfulness were markings of that day and I completely forgot about time and space. In the late afternoon I was aware that I already walked 39 km and it’s time to stop. A week later I realized that early morning adrenaline can be extremely obnoxious.

Thought: In nature and life there are neither rewards nor punishments; there are consequences.
