If you run long enough and rack up enough birthdays, you'll find your watch registering a slower and slower pace. Even that's the case, older runners aren't at higher risk of walking away. One simple trick for me to keep the motivation is to follow a mix of playful plans.
So when I got a chance to travel to Lofoten's tiny village of Henningsvær, I knew I should head for the famous football pitch. Located just within a few feet of cliffs, the green field of Henningsvær Stadium is the most picturesque football pitch in the world. Running a lap around the track will guarantee me an otherworldly ocean view.
That means I can switch from tempo run to all-out sprint depending on the viewpoint on the track. No matter which I choose, the goal is to make the run an enjoyable experience. To make sure I would never forget the experience, I ran there twice within one day.
Trust me, you will never get tired running at Henningsvær Stadium.
