The GPS has serious problems on "Nokia avenue" in between high buildings...

Legs still feel a bit heavy from 10k on Saturday. Pace is 4h marathon pace, or around 5:32 to 5:40min/km.

No running last weekend due to a Removal of Wisdom (teeth) operation. Something like 2:20 now seems like a more realistic goal for the half-marathon in two weeks.

A 2 hour half-marathon corresponds to a steady 5:41/km pace, so it's "only" a bit more than four of these evening runs done one after the other.

Slow 12k today. Felt fine until about km 7 or 8, then it was more work to get home. I should learn to eat and drink better during  the run since takes more than one hour.

Only three weekends, four weeks, until the planned half-marathon. I'll try to do 14k next week, then 16k two weeks before the event, but then probably ease off the week before the half-marathon, which is 21097.5 m long.

Through "micke-midlife's" blog I found a new Finnish running site last week, www.42195.fi

Long time no run. These slow 10+ k jogs need to happen every week now if the HCR half-marathon, to which someone at work challenged a lot of people, is going to happen.

Long time no run (outside, that is). Snow is a soft and forgiving, if not very fast, surface to run on. Recommended.

Made another PIKANTO on Saturday, this time with a clear gelcoat. Will be interesting to see it out of the mould on Tuesday or Wednesday, stay tuned.
