Moinsen, everyone! 👋
I’m Tim Teege a.k.a. Teesche and I write and podcast about long-distance running and books.
My current projects include a 938 day running streak, 20 marathons and 20 books in 2024, as well as trying to break 3:00 hours in a marathon (recently achieved!) and qualifying for the Western States 100.
Get my monthly newsletter with new posts, thoughts, tips, books, and more. Let’s go!

This was one of the best articles I've read so far in telling about a race. I couldn't put it down. Your details were so awesome. You made New York just come alive.
-
Great review, enjoyed reading it and recognize lots off related subjects and hurtles. I’m amazed by all your running and races well done.
-
Great article! I've read so many long blogs only to get bored in the middle as I suffer terribly from ADD and move on to other things. Yours has been one of few that held my attention all the way to the end.
-
Your good humor and ease in telling stories make this blog a really cool space. Nice review.
-
Amazing effort Tim, well done! Thank you for taking the time to write down your thoughts, feelings and memories from the event. There’s always something to learn from your posts and this one was no exception!! Another cracking read.

What a ride! Surely the race, but also reading about it. Thanks for taking the time to write up such a detailed report, almost feel like I was there.
