Tonite it was time for my first physical training this year.

This week the summer came back and it was warm and sunny so shorts, linnen, flipbelt and water belt.

# 9 So first I ran to St Hans hills (1.97K, average pace: 6.40 min/k) where the physical training would take place, the pace was ok. I have gained a few Pounds and have had a couple of heavy training weeks but it is time to do something about this. Have a plan. I promised myself I would run all the way to the meeting place and I did 🙂

Most of the Coach K Runners that I trained with tonite was not any familiar faces except Helen, Anna and Ruben.

Someone saw that I had a water belt and said that it would have been good to bring some water since it was warm. I have learned the hard way, always bring water belt even if it doesn’t look warm, you never know.

First we warm up with running around two and two and try to hit each other on arms and legs and if you got hit you did a burpee, the second round the person who got hit did 2 burpees and the one that hit did one burpee. I and Helen paired up.

Then we had a circle exercise that we continued doing two and two, 30s, went to the next exercise and no rest til the circle was finished

  1. Pushups, then jumping jacks, the plank, lunges,long jump x 2
  2. Squats, running back and forth between 2 cones, side planks, skating, bridges x 2

Then we took us up to the top hill and stood in a line facing the top hill, everyone chose a individual exercise to start with and then when we did each individual exercise the first person in the line ran up to the top hill and down again and then we switched exercise (took over the person’s to the right). When it was my turn I had decide that I would just push it all the way up and it did work 🙂

Last exercise was that everybody did the plank while the person at the top of the line ran down and then next etc

Felt great to be back even if some of my muscles are sore now, feel ache in my back thighs, looking forward to tomorrow

#11 After the physical training I ran back to home (2.02K, 6.34 min/k)  with heavy legs 🙂
