Training 2020 totals – A very different year

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 – W11/2020 Easy week and virus getting closer

Getting back to "normal" training reminded me of how stiff my muscles are and realized something must be done so decided that I will start taking Yoga classes at my gym to get a bit more flexibility and stretching to my body. I have been training so hard in the past year that I have [...]

Training W36 – Overseas ventures

I was trying to get back on track with training this week, but time simply has not been on my side lately. I have been struggling with trying to find time even for a short run and it seem like time is flying so fast I can't keep up with it. Normally my amount should [...]

More snow, more winter fun ❄️
Such a perfect weekend with outdoor activities and sports. Sun is shining and spring is around the corner ☀️
Such a beautiful sunset today in Helsinki 🧡

Funny how always the most strenuous training feels the best? As if we are programmed to feel good after "surviving" 😅
Inspired by @lolaodusogaofficial turning pages from the history book 📚 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 😮
A year ago today I was at #Kilimanjaro 4700 m waiting for the others to come down from #UhuruPeak 🗻
