Trading Zurich Marathon for a Wedding

Saturday, December 11th, 2010

Unfortunately I have to cancel my participation in the Zurich Marathon 2011, as one of my cuisines is getting married in Gothenburg the day before, and “surprisingly” there are not too many connections by air or train that allows me to leave Gothenburg late on Saturday and to be in Zurich before the race starts at 10.00 on Sunday. Looking forward to the wedding though, I could always find another marathon to run. Rome maybe?

Marathon Training, 16 Oct

Saturday, October 16th, 2010

I ran 14.2 km in 1:11:48 today. Felt good. Had at least 5 “k” more in my legs. Will try to go for 20 km next weekend. No I am meeting up with some friends to have a beer.

This morning I ran 10 km in 48:32, before leaving to work. It (almost) always feels good to start the day with a run.

Marathon Training, 29 Sep

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010

Today I ran 11 km in 53:39 in the rain, after coming home from work. It was my first run with the new Nike+ GPS app for iPhone. Really cool app. It tracks your route with the GPS so you can see where you have been running.

Gym Membership

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

Finally! I have found a gym membership that doesn’t drill a big hole in my budget. It was actually relatively inexpensive to be London. And the best part, since I signed up for a six months membership I got a PT for twelve weeks. Thx Nuffield Health. Even though I only understand half of what my PT is saying, because he is really Irish, I have really learned a lot. Apparently it is hard to bulk up at the same time you are training for a marathon. Haha. No seriously he seams to know a few things.
