Training Log Archive: Torino

Very tired day and going out for lunch with Urs's mom (with Alzheimer's), so I needed to get into the woods for some relaxation after having been together for 5 hours.
Not much energy, slow jog.

After a down-day on Friday w feeling sick again and a 2-hr nap and no exercise nor energy, I tried to bike today as I felt somewhat better. Could push in spots but on the short bursts uphill, my lungs wouldn't give what it would take, so I turned around a few times on single trails. Still liked it a lot to be out.

To Sandra's house for more planting; don't feel so good, did I catch my cold again, some deep pain in my lungs. Don't like that feeling.

Run home again from Sandra's after having been watching at the Tour du Canton (Matti and Lena ran their respective kids' races) and we then watched the juniors. At that point it began to pour again in La Chaux-de-Fonds and when we finally went to the car to drive back, we were all soaked and cold. I really didn't feel like running home, but Sandra kicked me out to go for a run (I needed it to get back into shape!), so I did it, but never really felt at ease, probably was still somewhat cold, sore muscles from yesterday and hungry. However, I chose a different route that I liked down through Auvernier to the lake and along the shore back to Colombier. Soon, that length along the lake will be crowded with people swimming, sunbathing and enjoying the lake. But today it was coldish and quite wet.

Running home from Sandra's house. First decent run in ages.
