#37 – 50 runs in 100 days summer edition
#94 – 100 Days Of Miles Challenge
This week I am finishing the preparations for the cross country race I am running end of September, Lidingöloppet so this afternoon I ran 4 laps on St Hans hills.
In my energy belt I had two bottles of water and one Maxim energy bar, tested one of the two new flavors, Protein bar chrispy brownie
Running shoes were Altra Lone Peak 1.5
Nice that my new pulse belt does not have any issues.
Felt that I had fast legs when I started the run. It was a bit warm but it was also a nice breeze.
Lately I have changed where I start running on SHE, the route that is perfect for preparation for Lidingöloppet so instead of 2K from home it is 1.5K from til I start running the laps.
I ran the original route except when I get to the killer hill where I run the killer variant instead.
There were some other runners there and I also saw Sara Snogerup Linse who is one of the fastest girls at SHE, we said hi and she asked if I was preparing for Lidingöloppet 
At this time of the year I would say most runners up on St Hans hills are preparing for Lidingöloppet.
It is so nice to run now when I have a faster pace and run up the hills also faster. I have come where I wanted to come, to become a faster runner. I can no longer say that I am slow and tedious. I was thinking about that when I was running but what I can I say now. I am not fast. Faster and tedious?????
Then another runner Marie Lennerhagen from CKR was also out running so we said hi to each other too.
The protein bar had a good taste and very easy to eat. Was soft and did not get stuck in between my teeth. So that will be a energy bar I will buy this fall.
On the fourth lap I got a bit annoyed. There is only one bad thing to say about Altra Lone Peak 1.5 and 2.0, the shoe laces. Even if I have done triple knots they get loose, later models has an improved lacing system ao I had to stop twice and tie the shoe laces.
Otherwise it was a good run, on the third lap it got a bit colder but then on the fourth lap the sun came back.
