stomach flu... will keep me sidelined for about 5 days, I guess

just had to go out for a little run to make the most of this beautiful weather... so I ran to Muellner Steg and back, cause I had estimated the distance at around 10k... turned out that it is some hundred meters shy of that mark but that should not bother me too much... speed was okay and it was definitely some good training for the 10k in Linz in a little over two weeks from today

today's run was waaaayyyy better... went on my favourite course for a short, quick run - along the Salzach to Nonntaler Bruecke and back... the first half of it was fabulous, it's slightly longer than the second part but I finished it in 14'23... on the way back I had to slow down slightly and had to push quite a bit... all in all, however, it was really good training and it shows that I am making progress... let's keep it that way

not my best outing, I'm afraid... I had planned to do a long run today, but felt terrible... so I decided to cut it short, hoping that this decision will enable me to go out for another run tomorrow... that way I could make up for the lost training session

running from my parents' to Sportplatz Mauthausen

just some route running and football throwing with andi and klaus... overall intensity was not too high, but it was fun to toss the ball around anyway

i signed up for our annual 10k run in linz yesterday, so I thought it would be best to continue with my training... did the same run as the day before yesterday, but added a little extra loop to VS Aigen and back... the run felt good and I was able to keep the speed for most of the time... actually, I felt faster than what the watch told me after the run... that's a little bummer, but I think I can live with that

in spite of my tired legs I just couldn't let this beautiful day go by without a training session... so I went for a short, fast run to Nonntaler Brücke and back... first half was good, could run at a pretty fast speed... on the way back, however, I had to pay the price for yesterday's long run... I finished the run at a slower speed, but was still happy with the overall performance

will enjoy a rest day tomorrow and be back at it on Thursday

feel good run along the Salzach... ran into town via Überfuhrsteg - Nonntaler Brücke - Mozartsteg - Staatsbrücke - Markartsteg - Müllner Steg - Lehener Brücke - Pioniersteg... did a little extra loop in Lehen and then turned around and took the same route back... since this was one of the first real spring days there were lots of runners out and it was great fun trying to keep up with the faster ones... when a female runner overtook me after about 50 mins I tried to run with her and succeeded for more than 15 mins... that was just the little extra motivation I needed after having been inactive for some time
