KUSTMARATHON ZEELAND 2023 - TOUGHEST MARATHON OF THE NETHERLANDS

I ran the Kustmarathon Zeeland on Saturday the 7th of Oktober! Over the last few months I have been training hard to get here. Never did I train so much as for this marathon as I wanted it to go great! How this marathon turned out for me you can see in this video. But I can already tell you that I definitly would recommend you to run this marathon once and that it is indeed the 'Mooiste en de Zwaarste marathon van Nederland'.
See my last race about which I was talking via:
• GROOT BOESCHOTEN TRAIL...

Luctor et emergo as they would say in those parts. Well done!

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

Haha thanks! Dit moest ik even googlen 😉

[@MihaiGoRunning]

Nice job on completing the toughest marathon in the Netherlands! It sounds like quite the challenge, especially with the strong winds and sand. Your determination and grit are truly commendable. Keep pushing your limits, Ivan! 👏

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

Yeah I am really determined to run a marathon someday where everything goes well 😂😂 I hope to manage to get that done someday! Thanks for watching!

Vandaag 2024 zgn vanuit het ziekenhuis meegelopen! Ik kon geen uitzending van vandaag vinden! De sfeer en het weer zijn ongeveer hetzelfde. DANK

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

@@tgmelfrink389 fijn dat je het op deze manier mee kon maken! Ik wens je veel sterke!

[@tworunningbrooms]

You're beginning to crack this marathon running business.

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

Thanks! Its quite a difficult business to crack 😂

[@dimitrijeglamocak3358]

Did the marathon in 3:38 . Toughest run I ever did. Never before I’ve had to stop running and start walking. Brutal race. Even prouder to have finished it !

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

Wow that's a great time! I normally also do not stop and walk, but this time it was definitely needed. You can indeed be proud of yourself!

[@Estertje93]

I did the trailrun of Friday (15km) and it was BRUTAL but awesome.

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

I was there at the start of the trailrun as well. It was soo windy as well. I can imagine it was tough! What was the vertical altitude actually during that 15k?

[@Estertje93]

@@marathontrainingwithivan i have no idea but it was a lot. The tallest dune is like 55 m above NAP and we went up and down a few times before getting to the beach. The first 4km were the worst (up and down the dunes to the south of Zoutelande), then lots of soft sand and then a mountainbike trail, finishing with the last 4km of the marathon route over the dunes and the the beach again. I was wayyy behind the group after the dunes but I wanted to preserve energy. I passed maybe 30 runners on the last 7km, most were struggling on the last dunes. The sunset and the sea and the views really made it something special. But it was a tough one!

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

@@Estertje93 you have definitely earned your medal I hear😍 it rightly has the name 'trailrun' as I read your Description. It sounds tempting to run that someday as well

[@Estertje93]

@@marathontrainingwithivan thanks! It was my first serious race ever. What's great about that is you always run a PB!

[@minhtruong8565]

Awesome ! Congrats ! Thanks for this video !

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

Thanks for watching! You ran as well?

[@GertHilgersom]

Mooie beelden. Bedankt kan het zo herbeleven was een prachtige dag en evenement.

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

Thanks! Dat is ook mijn bedoeling met deze filmpjes. Ook tijdens het editen herbeleef ik het een paar keer.

[@TheOldUltraRunner]

Great job, Ivan!! Congratulations!

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

Thankyou! I had an amazing time! Thanks for watching😊

[@PoetWithPace]

Well done Ivan! Will you be back on roads for some fast marathons?

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

Hii, thankyou! This was my coming back marathon and taking it easy with the pace, especially in the training. Last time I went for speed, I ended up with a runners knee. The idea is to get some speed back indeed. Probably my next marathon is going to be a city marathon as I never experienced something like that. And then I will also focus a bit more on speed. But I need to be really careful. I do not end up injured again

[@PoetWithPace]

@@marathontrainingwithivan just do mainly slow easy runs to build your endurance and speed comes over time....no rush! Pun intended!

[@joeyc6630]

Leuk! Ik heb de 38 gedaan van de hoge boeschotertrail. De kust marathon ook. Morgen vertrek ik naar Gasselte voor de ISU, wordt dat 3 uit 3?😅

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

Wow really? Wat ga je lopen bij de ISU? Ik ben daar helaas niet bij. Was wel mooi geweest!

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

If you ran it yourself as well, let me know your experiences down in the comments!

[@frankdebot4389]

Ik liep 10m achter jou de finish over 😆

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

Lekker man, hoe ging hij voor jou? Had jij een blauw shirt aan?

[@frankdebot4389]

@@marathontrainingwithivan yup, blauw shirt met m'n dochter naast me. Ik ben voorlopig uitgewaaid 😅alles beetjes op m'n gemak gedaan 🙂

[@marathontrainingwithivan]

@@frankdebot4389 haha snap ik. Uitwaaien was ook wel makkelijk afgelopen zaterdag!
