Some post-Easter thoughts
After a long weekend of doing not very much and a morning of feeling like I have some kind of cold virus brewing inside of me, I can't help but think.
My running on Friday produced a rather distinct träningsvärk and pain in my quads despite my choice of favourable location, soft grus and only 5km followed by a proper cool down and stretch. My 26km cycling tour which is actually part of Nationaldagsloppet left me feeling stiff at first but quite free of pain later on. And now I am not very still at all. So I would have to conclude that it is time to quit running for awhile and focus on the bike. No running. No duathlon. Just pure MTB.
To motivate me, the first race of the year is 17-18 april in Åstorp. This is pure XC which I suck at but finishing last in HSport is still training.
What will your first race be?
