Sunday Jun 29

Running 46:26 [2]8 km (5:48 / km) +50m 5:38 / km
Early Sunday morning run (!!!!) with Urs (or is 9 am not considered early ;-)? Went along the Aare, then up Elfenau and back through the Dählhölzli, saw the young newborn Ibex (3 of them) and the lynx with 2 young ones. So wonderful.
My hamstring barely hurt with this easy pace, but I definitely feel it and it is very shortened. As soon as I can, I need to start stretching it again.
Unspecified 2:00:00 [2]
I had lost a bet and needed to go to the technical ropepark in the Dählhölzli. Again, first, I was very pale to get started on those "gondolas" high up in the trees and walking over tree stumps that swing etc. But I eventually got over my fear of air and actually enjoyed it. We were there for 4 hours and did 4 parcours, but I only put down 2 hours of work, rope climbing and other stuff which required strength.
I wIsh I could post a picture.............. sorry Christoph :-(

Friday Jun 27

Note
No run again. Felt no motivation at all, so I decided not to force myself. I'm not sure whether I could do a run with the hamstring pull.

Thursday Jun 26

Yoga 45:00 [2]
Teach a yoga class, feels good on my injured hamstring. It hurts a little less today, but was very stiff, so stretching it gently felt just right.
Nordic Walking 1:00:00 [1]6 km (10:00 / km)
Lead my NW class up to Lombach and down to 2nd bridge. Still very hot and humid, felt no motivation to move fast! I'm just beat since Sunday, have no desire to run or train what-so-ever. Soo, I just take it easy for a few days.
Note
On Tuesday evening started to have a little swelling in the corner of my left eye. Treated it all day Wednesday and still wore my contacts. Today, before lunch, I felt kind of an irritation in my left eye as if there was too much liquid in it. When I checked in the mirror, I was horrified to see that my left eye was all blood soaked. Took the contacts out at once and wanted to call the eye doctor after lunch, but by then my eye had returned to a normal color!! Was working with my glasses all afternoon, even though I got a headache and dizzy feeling. I even did the Nordic Walking with my glasses on and received many teasing remarks!
Hopefully by tomorrow it will all be cleared up!

Tuesday Jun 24

Nordic Walking 1:10:00 [2]6.5 km (10:46 / km) +120m 9:52 / km
Evening NW class; we go up to the ruins Goldswil and stop at somebody's house to get some ice tea and cake. It is so bloody hot and humid, I just "crawled" around all day.

Hamstring still hurts, take short strides in NW.

Monday Jun 23

Teaching classes 45:00 [2]
Teaching 2 core classes (and giving me sore stomach muscles again ;-)).

Decided that I would not run for a few days to let the hamstring heal a bit.
