Epic Top 100 Finish in Lichess Spring Marathon!

man the AI images in this hurt my soul and take away my focus from what is written
Congratulations on your marathon result!!

I can confirm that fresh air is important, I myself had just spent the afternoon outside and I did a fairly lucky and overestimated late joining, I should never have finished in 516th place but in the top 1000 -1500.
the level was lower or less competitive than in 3+0 (or am I wrong and I'm getting old!?).

I actually played the marathon last August with the window open.

I had a period last years when i liked to eat 85% dark chocolate, but since then I have definitely stopped. It doesn't feed me enough anymore, if I don't have something bigger to eat, I'm hungry. so I often eat salmon or fish steaks, vegetables and bread.

and hazelnuts.

So, next Time, don't forget the pistachios at least ;))

Good stuff. My current top vegetable generally is Spinach - with eggs. Between these two, there is a lot of good stuff I think. You can get frozen baby spinach maybe and put it into the microwave - and its great to create a place for two eggs in it after. It's my current favourite.

Ahhh I thought they were quite funny myself. I did remove the Berserk one last night which wasn't so great. What is the current worst one to remove you think - or you hate all of the images?
It was very fun to play with you in the marathon :) (Even tho I lost 2 of 3)
Congrats on top100!
