Time again to get up to Frostavallen and continue with my trail running.

Suppose to be warm so I wore running skirt, linnen, ultra backpack, altralone peak 3.5, compression socks.

The weather was perfect, not as warm as the last time I was here but not too cold and also a breeze

Nice to be back and also that it is so dry, last year it was wet wet wet, gooey, gooey, gooey

The goal was of course to run up all the way on some more hills and also start running on all hills except two (Djuralids hill and the hill after)

Groups of treekers were also on the markers where I ran, I combines green, white, green today. In the beginning it was a larger group and they were in my way 🙂 A funny comment was here is someone who is in a hurry. Yes I am I responded and ran up the hill all the way, don’t think I did it last time 🙂

I would increase the distance to 12.5K, that’s why I added the white part which is a bit hillier than the first green part. Got up all the way on the first one on the white part which felt great but then there are two that are close to each other where I had to stop and walk on part of them.

It is so nice to run in the woods, I hear the birds singing and it smells lovely. And now it is so green.

I realized that when I would get back to the parking lot at Frostavallen I would not have been running 12.5K and have to come up with a new plan what to do. Decided to run around the lake of Wax (Vaxsjön) but still did not get 12.5 so I ran back on the green marker on the other side of the lake (where I normally come back on) and then found a new orange path into the woods and explored it.

Did not run into any knee issue til 8K and then I had to do a lot of walking.

Every time I run it just feels better and better now. I hope that it is true. I get lighter and get used to running again.
