Week rewind

Sunday is the best day to write. It is also good to have a day to relax.

I have started the training again after Göteborgsvarvet. Went twice this week to Skatås.
Monday and Thursday. I was actually late both time. I came 15 minutes late on Monday and just some minutes before the groups ran off on Thursday. The first time I blamed on the traffic.
Drove 30 km/h for almost 5 km.
The second time I just left home late.
So I missed the training on Monday. There are no one left in the club house when they run away      (at least on Mondays). So I hid my bag and ran a 5 km round on my own. I didn't get a super time, 21 min, 36 s. 4:19 min/km.

I ran with other Sunvikings on the Thursday training. We ran 11 km cross country.
I forgot to reset my stopwatch, so I didn't get an exact time. I calculated out with the time, distances and average speed I had and got 1 h, 6 min, 22 s. The average speed was 6:02 min/km.
The reason to the slow speed was that I missed what pace the different groups had and just joined the first best.

It feels good to be back on track with running.

The week has been good. Have had visit from my nephew and brother.
Kids have loads of energy. Would also like to have it, especially when I run. :)

I will train twice next week at Skatås. Tuesday and Thursday.
My next race will be the club championship in the beginning of August. 2,1 km uphill.

Run along!

Here is a picture with the Sunviking suit and parts of my room :)

A week with a lot of activites

I have had something every day.
On Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday I have had lectures at the Uni.
We are studying right now accounting and book-keeping. Some numbers to keep in the mind, but it will be easier when I have done some book-keeping exercises and learn how the formulas works.
We will have the exam 3th June about this. So about a month to go.

I have run twice this week. First on Tuesday at Skatås with the club.
They have same kind of trainings on Monday and Tuesday and four groups divided into these days. The beginner and intermediate group train on Monday and the competition and competition elite train on Tuesday.
I have trained with the intermediate group and tried the competition group this week. We did intervals. 600m, 500m, 400m and 300m with 0,5 - 1 min rest between. It wasn't a big difference, but the warm-up was more intense. Run backwards on a slope which would be a black slope in Alpine Skiing is pretty tough. I was tired after that. I saved some energy for the intervals which was the main thing for the evening.
I love the sauna in the clubhouse. 90°c.

The second running was Lunnarundan. I have said that it is 8.95 km. I draw the round again and got 9,04 km.
Yea yea it is only 0,09 km difference, about 100m, but I want an accurate average tempo. It feels also weird to run the same round with different distances. So now I will use 9,04 km if I can't get an exactly distance.
Anyways....
I didn't feel Göteborgsvarvs ready, but it felt alright. I hoped to beat my season best, which I did. 41 min and 35 s. Average tempo 4 min, 36 s. 1h, 37s would be the time on Göteborgsvarvet if I can keep this pace all the 21 km. So it feels good.
I have to run double so fast to compete with the elite. :)

Slottskogen this evening with the YSAs. Brännboll, grilling and chilling. Will be nice. :p


It is also one week until Elder Max Månhammar comes home from his mission in the London South.
Looking forward to see him again after about 3 years.

Rabbin good! Hare bra. Have a good day!
