Hey-hey!

My training today was hard but very pleasant.

I ran in the forest up the hills for 1h 30m. 10 meters before I reached the top of every hill I sped up and ran with such pace for the next 20-30 meters then I ran slowly again x 18 hills.

+abs, back, arms & stretching

Weather: +15C

Warm up - 7 minutes, a little bit of stretching, 500-meter speed-ups x 10 times, 100meters x 3 times, calming down - 8 minutes.

+abs, back, arms and stretching

Weather: +14C

I have real problems with push-ups, don’t know why.

Today my periosteums (this word was given me by one dictionary, tell me, if it’s incorrect, please) were aching very much when I was running. 

Oh, guys, 22 more days until the run…

My arms are sore! I did 40 push-ups yesterday and today I could hardly manage 20. And that’s only because I didn’t do any push-ups last week. Awful!

So, my dear guys :) , I’m finally back.

Today I did some kind of fartlek for 52 minutes, I felt so shitty, sorry for the word :D

Weather: +8C

My stomach really bothered me so much!

I trained in Finland only twice this week because of bad weather. On Tuesday - 59 minutes, on Wednesday - 56 minutes. There were so many hills! It was hard for me because besides my trainings we were very active there.

Finland is great!

Hey guys!

First of all, I congratulate all Russians on Easter!

Today I did a recovery workout - running for 52 minutes.

+1/2(abs, back, arms & stretching)

Weather: +12C

Now I have something to tell you about these two days.

I was in Finland, Joensuu, where I took part in Joensuu Maraton. I ran 10 km yesterday.

My result is  46.33. The link.

Last year my result was 49.20. Actually, I’m not content with the result, but it’s not worth complaining about. Anyway it’s my PR. :)

Some pics:

1. Everyone got some coffee, chocolate, medals and sweets after the race.

2. That’s what I like to do during the way ^_^

3. I couldn’t help showing you my legs :D

4. I bought one CD there…It’s HIM <3 My favourite band. They come from Helsinki and that’s why buying the CD in Finland was very cool for me, especially because this album was launched on 26th and 30th of April depending on country. Great album! (The ones they made in 2007 and 2009 were worse, much worse). Ville, the frontman is in hospital now :(image

Okay, now some more news. On 8th of June I’m running 10km, not 21 how I wanted. Some people(my mum and Volodya) talked me out of this idea.

I have one month to get ready for it. Besides training hard, I must loose some weight. The less I weigh, the faster I run. I won’t wallow in self-pity and I’ll achieve what I want :)

Tomorrow I’m going to Finland again, ha-ha. I’m gonna spend there 5 days. I hope so much that there’s wi-fi, as we’ll live in the forest, if I’m not mistaken :D I don’t even know where we’re heading, lol ;D

I also hope I’ll have time for training there. 

See ya soon, my dear followers!

XO
