The year started and never thought I would be running a half-marathon. Soon, I will be running 21k in Oslo.
Another transformation!
By the end of the year, my goal is to achieve 1,200Km. Than in 2020 more!
Can we be better? Can we make things better?
Considering we always have more to do, simply substantiate that!
Let’s make the impossible possible! #tonidandel #mudinyourtoe
The first time I ran with my daughter, Ana Laura.
Being inspired by her feels grant. Hard work, take the challenge and yet, very caring and aware.
My greatest joy and such moments will be repeated! A lot of fun!
Well done girl!
Today I reached 100km running. In half of time compared to previous months.
For me it is a milestone. A few month ago I did not have this drive and my understanding of achievement was totally different. My physical preparation is leading my mental state.
Talking about this, I came to understand my motivation, creativity and energy I put into everything I do. 💡💡💡

This week I managed to recover and increase the length of my runs. Also got on the bike and clocked 40k on Saturday.
Holiday Monday brought another 21k run. A new track, hilly one. Not easy.
Easy to drift off mainly within the first KMs but great feeling once it is done!
Busy mind, good music and focus towards finishing the plan exercise!
Today I planned a recovery run, something to ease my legs. It turned out I managed intervals. Good exercise but now I need time off for a long run on Saturday.
Something what helps me in between training is a bike ride!
It relieves the muscles in a way that the recovering time is quicker.
It might lead me to another challenge in the future. Triathlon is something in the back of my mind 💪🦶🏊♂️🚴🏼♂️
Nine months ago I re-started to run. No expectation and my main goal was mainly to get into a better form, reduce weight and improve my mobility.
I started running 2km, then 3km, 5km and 7km when I decided to improve my pace. After achieving this I got proper running shoes and focus on longer runs. 10km was my training runs and soon I enrolled myself in my first running competition | Oslo EcoTrail. I got #29 place in my category and I enjoyed being among those pushing themselves. Great feeling.
From today onwards I decided to train for half marathon. The first time ever I ran 21km was today and surprisingly my best pace was around 14km and 16km.
More to come on this and feeling accomplished for the day!

After running 100km with a Hoka Challenger I believe I got how I should run with these shoes. Posture, foot position uphill and downhill, asphalt and gravel. All play a major role and improve performance, specially uphill.
It takes a bit to warm up but once you are firing through the trails, it gets cool!
For some reason I also sweat less. Great when it is warm. However, this is something I want to learn a bit more.
Blizzards are common in my 🦶 but under control now.

It simply comes watching my kids growing up. No baby any longer. Participative discussion and a ever self-discovery journey with my two daughters! Yep, they are growing and we are too. We have to realise it, feel the joy and mirror this into our own journey! The discovery goes further, beyond the places we had imagine! Let’s do this! Simple energy!
After 5am snow shuffling, bad traffic, a regular working day I smashed while running 4 miles tonight. It just felt great when I thought I would get a cold! Great run, electric surprise and a sense of gratitude after deciding to run tonight!
