I’m Jan, a 58 (nearly 59) year old man from Ghent, Belgium. I started running (at least seriously) in 2000, 2 years after my 18 year old son Lieven died from an asthma crisis, and after two years of heavy drinking and smoking. Since then, running was (and fortunately still is) my way of dealing with the hardships of life.
By October 2010, I had totaled nearly 17 000 km of shod running.
