Running (Road/XC) 27:35 [3]
shoes: adidas swoop 2 - 3rd pair
To ski slope. Saw a fawn (yes I did look that up, I was going to put baby deer), no sign of the mother.
Walking hills (XC) 31:00 [3] 1.76 km (17:37 / km) +640m 6:15 / km
shoes: adidas swoop 2 - 3rd pair
8*0.44km & 80m. No lady weights today but planned to do a couple more reps than last time. Gradually build it up - should have started back in April as soon as the snow had gone, I will next year when hopefully I won't be so ill or injured. Anyway went for 4mins a rep - same as last time thinking that it would be bloody hard by number 8 but it seems I underestimated my freshness...
1) 4:05
2-3) 4:00
4-5) 3:55
6) 3:50
7) 3:45
8) 3:30
Should have kept it consistent and done 10 or 12 reps but didn't get back from work until 8:30, major busy at the mo. It's hard enough staying upright descending near the bottom as it is without it being dark as well. Average gradient of 40% and the first 1/4 of the slope is significantly steeper than the rest. It was pretty dark at only 10pm tonight and it's a bit depressing that we're already a month past the longest day. There will be snow soon.
Saw a smallish black snake. It was a lot more scared of me than I was of it - Sweden is like Britain for snakes, only adders can hurt you.

Running warm up/down (Road/XC) 25:45 [2]
shoes: adidas swoop 2 - 3rd pair
Jogged back home a shorter, more roady way - less chance of ankle damage in the dark.
Saw a big frog... or toad, I have no idea which it was. Then saw a huge one a short while after, like the size of my wallet (physical size, certainly no reference to how much money I have in it). The internet reckons they were toads because they prefer to walk than hop apparently.
