Last leg for olg stäfa in 5er-staffel in Zürich. Took it easy after my long hike yesterday. Struggeling a little in the beginning because it was extremly green in the forest. Under-vegitation was higher than me,good to run the last leg to have some paths through the bushes.

Hiking a little more than 8hrs in total including breaks. Approx 1600 m climb in total. Hiking from Fluhseeli up to Wildstrubel (3244m above sea level), half the way down again and then finding our way to the final place Engstligenalp. Very nice, quite much snow, which made the trip much easier - it was just to stand on the shoes down all the hills

Hiking to "Fluhseelihütte" (2045meters above sea level) close to Lenk in Simmenthal in the afternoon. A steep climb the whole way.

4 times a hill of about 3:20-30min.

3000m in Brugg, have not been running much on "tartan" the last months, and acctually also not so much flat - mostly done hill intervals, so it was tough for my legs to try to run fast on a 3000m. Anyway a good field to run fast, so a bit sad that my shape was not good enough to try to make a new PB: best woman 10:00 min, best man 9:03min, all starting together.

I was smart and tried to keep to the plan(10:30min) instead of trying to keep up with the faster runners. The first 400m I ran on 80 sec, and then the next 1000m in about 3:30 min/km speed. I ran the first 1000m below 3:30, approx 3:26min, and I was able to keep the speed up for an other 400m, but after 1800m I started to struggle, and was not able to keep the speed up. Past 2600m on 9:16 min, but tried to sprint the last 400m and managed to run the last round on 84 sec.

10:40min in the end. Not very satiesfying, but I think it is still a sign of increasing shape. It is 2.7 % behind my 3000m-time of november, and 4 % behind my PB. An taking the little "tartan"-running/flat-running into account it is ok, I guess. On the NLZ-test before my interval block last week I was 6.2 % behind PB...
