High places, trails and training with a splash of fashion and rhythm flavour
So where do I start? From the fact that when schools start it's always chaos for our family for a few weeks. This time the chaos seemed to last forever. It's been two months and I still feel like I am in a fast spinning wheel. Blogging has been on my mind, but unfortunately I [...]
It's been now +6 months since we climbed Kilimanjaro. I thought it would be a good time to finish the series and walk a bit on the memory lane and look back on what happened and what thoughts have come to my mind since. The reality is that our journey as awesome and great as [...]
I cannot even start to express how grateful I am that finally there has been some progress on the healing and I have been able to train (a bit) without any pain on my left knee. I think it was around mid July when there was a clear change. I was getting fairly desperate with [...]
A bit of relaxing at a waterpark The only good part about June was that I was on holiday. We had fun with the kids camping by lakeside. Weather was perfect until we got a quick thunderstorm but the tent stayed dry inside so nothing to worry! It was almost midsummer so there was daylight [...]
I've been thinking how to finally get back to training so I would not overdo it again. Decided to try cycling a bit first and then walking and add slowly a bit of running with max two times a week and max 3 kilometers at a time. I clearly have lately had the need to [...]
Sunburn on my lower lip! I could not sleep. I had this weird tingling feeling on my lower lip. I kept on putting lip balm on it, but it just did not go away. I finally fell asleep though only to wake up later with my lower lip completely swollen. It felt like an allergic [...]
I haven't been able to train at all for the past weeks. I was sure that "listen to your body and let it heal" would work, but it dd not seem to do the trick. I took it really easy for a few weeks and then went for a short walk with my daughter to [...]
Leaving Kibo camp heading towards Mawenzi peak Finally down hill, yay! I was so happy to go to bed knowing I would be "getting out of here". I was already feeling better, but still not good. Anything you did was an effort. Getting up and going to the toilet even! I had hard time falling [...]
Since my leg started hurting AGAIN after quite an easy walk in my opinion It was clear I should not do any kind of training either. With Easter holiday coming up on the weekend I was a bit sad. Mostly because it would have been nice to go somewhere with the kids for example for [...]
My leg was not still OK, so still no running. I do not want it to get worse and then I cannot run for months, so decided to not run the whole week but do a few easy online circuit training and maybe walk a bit. And hey might as well try to shed that [...]
