Easter 2011

Did a 20k run yesterday. Nice course around Penwortham ... but way to hot for England. Although recovering was quite ok so it seems I did not loose all shape within the week after the race. In the afternoon saw some good friends and got really pis... afterwards when I realised that the laundry outside got soaked again by that heavy summer rain.
Now off to Germany to see my family and some work on the house. Oh Dear...

Glasgow Edinburgh Double Marathon

... or a little more. In the end it was 90k and a TOUGH race. As Haile one day said: "There are good days for a race and there are days which are not..." Well, that was not one of my best. It was beautiful weather, the racers was a relatively small group but all VERY nice guys and it was great organized. The "No 1" coach was there, and hence everything was well. After the first 30 k I got a blister and probably because of that I favoured one leg which caused pain in my left knee and did not stop till the end. But in the end we did it!. Met nice people on the way, on the checkpoints were friends waiting for me which made me moving with a BIG smile, crossing the finish line. Thanks to everyone who gave me that great day!

Training for the GEDM...

Chaps... its done. The main training for the race is over. As usual I do not feel really confident about the amount I did. But I did what I could and thats enough! 56 miles and a beer in the end. Isn't that a goal?
Lets see how it works out, few more days to go -

Just move ;)
