Rain, rain, go away

Today's run didn't work out quite as I haf planned as the sky opened up all of a sudden. Blaaahhh. 

So I ran to the grocery store, did my shopping and walked home.

Tomorrow is supposed to be nice and sunny. 

Slight change of plans

I've had to cancel my participation in Athens Authentic Marathon because of the financial situation in Greece.

Instead I've signed up for Edinburgh Marathon in May 2016.
The route is flat & fast so I will waddle it in 5 hours and 15 minutes.

2015 is still the summer of running; training for  Oslo half marathon and 15 K at Koli will keep me busy.

2015: Summer of Running

2015, The Summer Of Running, has officially begun.

30 mins speed intervals at work in splendid sunshine. Very hard wind though, messed with my feet a few times. 

I'm hitting the deck every time my schedule and the weather allows this summer. No excuses.

Saturday Night Fever

Saturday Night Fever @ m/s Viking Grace.

30 minutes running on helicopter deck. Got my heart rate UP! Fresh air and the world's most beautiful archipelago. 

This is the life.

Trail!!

Today I spent two hours jogging and walking in the forest, getting aquainted with trail running/waddling as I have registered for the Marathon of Dangers/Vaarojen Maraton at the beginning of October.

I'm taking the 15K this year, maybe 43K next year??!!

Today's jog went surprisingly well as I can still feel Friday's full body (focus on legs though) workout.

Still no reply from Athens

Thursday was 'PT theme night' at the gym.

I participated in core, flexibility, interval running and 'explosiveness' classes.

Today is Saturday, rest day, and my ans still hurt!!! Ha ha ha!!

Yesterday, Friday, I just did an easy recovery jog.

I've emailed Athens Authentic Marathon regarding my payment and registration but have still not received any reply..

I'm waiting...

Athens Authentic Marathon

Registration for Athens Authentic Marathon has opened, I have registered, paid 100€ through bank wire but so far received no confirmation.. ??? Hmm???
Very interesting...

I have skied 11,5 km crosscountry!!! Two weeks ago Ahmovaara-Kopravaara. Nearly 30 years since my previous skiing escapade.
I survived :)

At work I've been jogging on deck 12, lots of warm clothes required since it's quite windy.

I will waddle Marathon-Athens in 5,5 hours on November 8th!
