It is summer - the rain is getting warmer...
...this is a joke going around Switzerland. Today, 31 May, I cycled in and it was 5 degrees! Unbelievable.
My training is going well regardless, and I am tremendously looking forward to the coming weekend, hoping that I don't get rained in with all the planned activities. I can't focus on my work as much as normally, but I still get a lot done.
On Monday it poured down, so I went to the gym and did 1.5 hours of strength training, from calfs to shoulders. I felt it on Tuesday. Onelegged crunches...what a killer! Yesterday, I ran a quick 13km run home, with intervals during km 8 and 11.
I decided on Sunday that it was time to get the weight down. It is not easy since I seem to be ALWAYS hungry, but I cut out some sugar and fat and already dropped a kilo. Let's hope I can keep it up for a while, so that I finally drop below the 70kg mark, which is toooooooo much for me.
Oh, I also signed up for the Koel Marathon on Monday. So, in October, the 42 km mark will have to be crossed.
Keep riding! N
