#21 – 16.28K trail run
#22 – 4.23K, transport to the train station

The plan this weekend was to run a longer trail run around Frostavallen, one of my favorite trail places.

I needed to sleep in and not get up 5 am and set the alarm to 7 am but got up 6.40 am.

Put on my windstopper just in case the weather wouldn’t be warm, better to have one extra jacket and take it off then being cold.

It was warmer in Lund but when I got up to Höör it was a bit colder while I was waiting for the bus.

Started my run and I have not gotten far when a guy asked me if I had al lighter, I was thinking do I look like I have a lighter??? I said No, turned out he had two small dogs that tried to be tought and ran towards me but I was not afraid.

I had decided that I would combine the green and ”old black”. Together they are around 20K.

It did not take long til I knew that it would be some walking, one of the hills that I usually do not have any problems running up was just to give up and walk up instead.  And then the windstopper got off. This is how it is today, heavy breathing

Very nice being back in the woods.

The ”old” black is part of Tjörnarparen and at one part they have moved the marking to the left but of course I have to run to right around Dagtorp’s lake

I had to jump from some stones to avoid getting wet at one place and did not dip my running shoes in the water.

Then came the first boring dirt road, I end up walking part of it because I am so bored but I promised myself that I would run the whole dirt road and I did 🙂

There was no other runners out there, nice to have the woods to myself but I met some trekkers that I said hi too.

I was hoping that I would see anemones even if the season soon is over and this is what I saw

I could have sprangled my foot really bad today, so close but still was just fine afterwards, I am surprised that I have not sprangled one of my feet because I always end up trample obliquely when I get tired feet.

On the second boring dirt road I promised myself I just was allowed to walk uphills if needed but run on the flat parts and I stick to my promise.

Then there is this hill, a bit hate love around it, Djuralids hill, a very steep hill that I have once run up but today there was no way that I would be able, then there is another shorter very steep hill afterwards.

Even if it was tough today with some walking up on some hills I am satisfied with myself. Like I have said earlier, I have gained weight, lost fitness but staying on the couch won’t make it any better. Every time I get out on a run I will loose some weight and one day I will feel happy running, right now I am tormenting myself to get me where I want to be
