Just did my knee, neck and back exercises. Today I just feel like a total loser. I really don’t know if I’m able to continue my half marathon training. If not… I will cry. Really! 

No running for me this week and I hope for the best! 

Last two years I have become physically way more active than before. I try to challenge myself as much as possible. I have never been this strong and flexible. Not even when I was a kid. 

However… I’m in my mid thirties and my body isn’t that capable to bounce back is it used to. It takes a lot of extra effort to get in shape and much more time to recover from heavy exercise. My body is very achy right now, I have been pushing it a lot lately. Maybe too much. I had to ice my knee after my 14k run. I really hope it’s not my old injury, if it is, if have to kiss my half marathon goodbye.

Time for recovery.

Stretching the back and hips

Injury prevention

My body feels old and achy today, every muscle is sore. Yesterday I raced on the track with my motorcycle. it takes a lot of your body and mind. 

Time for some gentleness today. Yes yoga! I found a new stretch routine! Yay! This is a gentle one, just what my body needed.

Uhoh… In a few moments I’ll visit a huge sportsgear/clothing store with credit cards and other cards I can buy stuff with…
Luckily it’s Saturday and probably over crowded, so I won’t be long gone!
