Running warm up/down 35:00 [1] 6.0 km (5:50 / km)
shoes: Asics Gel DS Trainer XIII
Running race 31:23 [5] 7.7 km (4:05 / km) +115m 3:48 / km
shoes: Jalas S4
Because Aprilliviesti is next wednesday, we ran the test run already today.
Weather was good but the track surface wasn't. It had snowed fresh snow during the night and it was slippery even with orienteering shoes. And I think that every lap the track got even worse due to us running on it and making the snow looser.
Running felt pretty good. Second lap the best. On the last lap I was few seconds behind the first two after the hill but I was able to pick up the pace and made a 10s improvement. I was aiming for under 31' but I guess the snow added 1-1½min to the time compared to unfrozen asphalt.

Skiing 2:20:00 [3] 29.0 km (4:50 / km)
With Jani and Wilho.
In some parts wind had dropped a lot of litter on the trail but then again some parts were splendid.
Looks like Jape's "best ever" shape wasn't fully true. 9th best from VeVe and almost a min/km to Tero. It's still a long way to ranking < 28.

Running 1:05:00 [2] 11.3 km (5:45 / km)
shoes: Asics Gel DS Trainer IX
With Wilho.
We were supposed to go for a run about five o'clock but then I realised that Finland's gane was alredy at five.
First 40min we ran just under 6min pace (cause I had just eaten) but towards the end it was closer to five. I got home just for the kick off. Now it's time for the toughest training of today!!
Whatta f*uck's wrong with TV Viisi!?!?!?!? "No signal". Now I'll have to settle with www.justin.tv.
0-1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And who gave the perfect pass, LIIIIIIIITMAAAANEN!!!!!
0-2, Shefki "physical presence" Kuqi, 90', oh yeah!

Cycling 0 30:00 [3] 10.0 km (3:00 / km)
I was still 1805 at work so 55min to cycle home, eat, change clothes and get to Jalkaranta. That meant that I had to put those pedals moving. Probably one of my best times home bound.
Strength (gymstick) 35:00 [3]
shoes: Adidas Stabil
Gymstick training by Jarkka. Usually not too fond of these strength training gadgets but this did the trick. A bit too much to be exact -> left shoulder cramped at the end.
Floorball 1:00:00 [1]
shoes: Adidas Stabil
We had a bit better team so didn't have to push it.

Note
The last Korttelikuppi street o event of this winter will be today. If there is LIVE feed, my small dot will pop up here around 18:30 (17:30CET). For the couple of last times the software on the mobile phone has crashed and the dot has stopped moving, hopefully not today.
Running warm up/down 15:00 [1] 3.0 km (5:00 / km)
shoes: Jalas S4
Orienteering race (Korttelikuppi) 42:56 [4] 6.7 km (6:24 / km)
shoes: Jalas S4
Had a litlle sore throat this morning and it didn't get any better during the day. This was my all-yökuppi&korttelikuppi-events-within-a-year-event so I had to go.
On the drive there I did some Serj Tankian imitating and it didn't help the throat. Decided to take it with 90% speed and I almost stuck with that. To few controls I had to test how full speed felt like->OK. I guess tomorrow morning I'll know is the throat better or should I turn more to Chris Cornell imitation for few days.

Skiing 2:00:00 [1] 24.0 km (5:00 / km)
More tired from yesterday than I thought. Guess it really was a tough weather...
While cycling back home from work I decided not do anything else cause my thighs and calfs didn't want to take part in the pedaling process. Then just before home the sun came out and it just called me to take the skis out of the shed. Did that already on the way in so I wouldn't back down.
Took it really easy and made some sprints at the end for tomorrow. It's something I don't normally do but since my legs aren't as "fresh" as they could, had to try something.

Running 1:50:00 [2] 18.5 km (5:57 / km)
shoes: Asics Gel DS Trainer IX
For f*ck's sake!! Yesterday's weather was the best what Finnish winter can offer, today's anything but...
Because of the Pelicans' game at SC, we started from Pullis. I was 5min late and Jape and Assu had to wait for me, again.. It had started to snow about an hour before and that bloody snow just kept on coming. The air was full of snow, the ground was full of snow and Assu's eyebrown's were full of snow. Seriously, they were 2cm thick and he's no Kauko "Turbo" Turunen on his own. After ½h of running Jape was ready to call it a day but couple of perkeles and few other profanities and we took direction away from Hollola.
Can't say that it was fun but at least the 1½+h monday run was again a done deal.
