#10<\/p>\n

Since some years ago it has become a tradition to run on Ascension Day.<\/p>\n

Started to run middle of April and decided that today was the time to do a trai run for the first time after my pneumonia.<\/p>\n

One of my favorites trail places is Frostavallen<\/a>. This week I increased the distance to 10K.<\/p>\n

Took the train and bus to Frostavallen and of course I would test my first trail run on the green marker, 10K.<\/p>\n

Was a bit nervous, did not know how my lungs would respond after I had walked up Djuralidsbacken (=Djuralids hill), the hill that is the biggest challenge at Tj\u00f6rnaparen plus the one that comes after.<\/p>\n

But I was determined I was going to finish the distance, not cut it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Had put on t-shirt, shorts, ultra back pack, Altra Lone Peak 3.5, compression socks. But it did not take long til I realized that t-shirt was too warm this day and it just had to get off and once again running around in a sports bra, have gotten used to it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It was so nice seeing it was so dry, last year it was wet wet wet.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

There were two places where it was a bit more difficult to get around, in the beginning of the route a tractor has drive around and left traces, there was some water and then below a tree had been cut so the path had a tree in my direction so I found a detour to get around the tree \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I was wondering if they had rerouted the green marker, all of a sudden I was on a dirt road where I passed some trekkers but could not remember that I have been running here on the green marker.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The first two hills I ran all the way up, the third was too tough but I started running up all hills but if I felt it was too hard I stopped and walked<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I did not care about the time today, it would take the time it would take, I would be ok if I couldn’t run up all the way on some hills. This was a test run to see where I am.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Since I did not know how warm it would be, I might have to wet my hair I brought 500 ml water and 500 ml sports drink (Tailwind Tropical Buzz)<\/p>\n

Then I got to Djuralidsbacken (Djuralids hill) where I had thought that I would be dead at the top.<\/p>\n

To my surprise it felt just like normal. I have run up all the way ONCE in August some years ago. At Tj\u00f6rnarparen last year they now have a competition who will run up the fastest, I willl never win and will not even try \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

After Djuralidsbacken there is another shorter very steep hill and I walk up that one as well. these two were the only two where I did not start running, I am familiar with these, great to have trail shoes with good grip.<\/p>\n

First 5K took 50 min so I thought that I would finish in 100 minutes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

To my surprise the whole route took\u00a01:29’43.9. Where I am right now, with the weight and recovering after pneumonia I am so proud of myself that it took less than 90 minutes. It was some walking. And it felt just like normal with some extra weight. It seems to me that I am on my way back. I will definately come back here in a couple of weeks and redo this route. It has all the hills that I need, some hills to work on and also increase the distance later of course.<\/p>\n
