| |
| 4*1,25 on Pitäjänmäki forest track that has some hills too. Felt some pain on my shins after the run, tried do give some cold water to them at shower and will probably do some fitness circle - like training tomorrow to give my legs some rest. |

Friday May 16 |
 | Running warm up/down 36:00 [2] 7.2 km (5:00 / km) | |
| |
| Warming up and down |
 | Running tempo 13:30 [4] 3.7 km (3:39 / km) | |
| |
| One fast lap over Otsonlahti.
This is the training I wanted to do yesterday. Some fastish running without letting the overall physical stress grow too big. One lap of warming up, one lap faster and one lap warming down.. I'm stil feeling some small "traces" of flue but I'm confident that a night of 8-10 hours of sleep should fix me just fine.. |

 | Note | |
| (sick) (rest day) |
| I felt too tired and sick to go running even if I was intented to go. Sometime's it's better to just rest and today it felt like one of those days. |
Wednesday May 14 |
 | Note | |
| |
| I don't know if it's yesterday's strength-training, night of very little sleep (3-4hrs), work-stress or all combined but something has thrown my body off-balance and I'm feeling really tired today. I think that a good length of "slow-as-I-can" running on some quiet forest-paths after work is the best medicine for this. Un-planned rest days usually just cause more stress and make things worse ("What is wrong with me, aargh I need to rest, will I be fit tomorrow? What should I do?" versus "Hmm, running at this speed feels pretty good, I bet I could run a little faster but I won't.." ;) . Of course if slow running also feels bad it's time to rest |
 | Jogging 1:20:00 [1] 13.5 km (5:56 / km) | |
| |
| Easy running / jogging in the forest paths in Lintuvaara. It felt OK but it was slow speed too. I might have a little bit of flue too or a bad case of allergy, there is some pollen around in Finland at the moment.

Tuesday May 13 |
 | Strength 40:00 [2] | |
| |
| Upper body work-out to give my legs some rest. Push ups, pull ups, abs etc. |
Monday May 12 |
 | Running 48:00 [2] 9.4 km (5:06 / km) | |
| |
| Running from Konala to work in the morning. Running usually feels bad in the morning but today it felt pretty OK |
 | Running long 1:29:00 [2] 18.5 km (4:49 / km) | |
| |
| From work to home, took the longer route: Vallila-Ruskeasuo-Paloheinä-Konala.
Running felt quite heavy and a little bit hard on the legs. I had some extra weight in my back bag which might have had a small effect in it. Tomorrow probably just some upper-body workout and a rest day for the legs.. |
