Private walkathon

As mentioned previously my training proceeds. However busy time @work forced to change my routine again. Not for long I hope.
To fulfill my original plans I've organized my private walkathon of around 18k+. Also I got myself some trekking sticks (not sure if this is the right word) poles.

My walkathon took place outside the city in a huge forrest (270 km2).

Walkathon

My training proceed. However I did another replacing event.
This time it was a 10K walkathon for charity.

I was feeling really good although it was quite cold that day.

Unfortunately as of this Monday I was sick. So one week's training was put on hold.

Back on track

It's good to "run" again. I have started Second Step (run/walking).
For two weeks I am doing this:
- 10 min fast walk to warm up
- 10-15 min of run-walking... 1 min running - 2 min walking
- 10 min to cool down

So far I've noticed that it adds additional lap to my route.

Another observation... I went swimming afterwards and got a cramp.
Need to stretch after run-walking I guess... What do you think?

This is why...

Unfortunately I have another excuse. I think it is pretty good one.
The image explains why I didn't go running...

It is justified, right?

Running update

OK, so I'm back. Backpacking was great. I feel much stronger now. Even lost 4 lb.

Hope to continue my running schedule, starting this week.

Wish me luck.

Backpacking it is

As for the running schedule I am thinking that 10 days of backpacking equals the First Step continuation. Don't you agree...

Running turns into backpacking

In order to prepare for my summer trip to Norway I had to suspend my running schedule.

I will take it up again once I come back.

CU in end of August!!!
