Training Aug/Sep/Oct 20 – Something is better than nothing

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 [...]

Training Jul/20 – Finally back to gym!

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 [...]

The Virus – Day 75 – New (different) reality

This new reality is becoming more and more "normal". I have gotten used to this waking up and not going anywhere. It's actually nice not having to hurry anywhere.

Training W48 – New activities, winter is here

Finally temperature dropped below zero and we got a bit of frost and snow. You might think we are crazy being happy about snow and weather turning colder but the reality is when it gets colder everything is frozen and water turns to snow so it's brighter and cleaner outside. Strange as it sounds it [...]

Such a perfect weekend with outdoor activities and sports. Sun is shining and spring is around the corner โ˜€๏ธ
Such a beautiful sunset today in Helsinki ๐Ÿงก
Remember that sometimes you need a break ๐Ÿ‘
These few words on my little home office wall will continue to be my guideline when heading to three week "lockdown" ๐Ÿ”’๐Ÿ˜…
Funny how always the most strenuous training feels the best? As if we are programmed to feel good after "surviving" ๐Ÿ˜…
Inspired by @lolaodusogaofficial turning pages from the history book ๐Ÿ“š I think year is 1997 so I would have been 24 years old. It seems like forever ago especially when you put another 24 years into it to get to this year ๐Ÿ˜ฎ
A year ago today I was at #Kilimanjaro 4700 m waiting for the others to come down from #UhuruPeak ๐Ÿ—ป
Happy Valentine's day to everyone ๐Ÿงก Especially to @jyrkikaarila my best friend ๐Ÿค—
