It was very cold and rainy yesterday. However, I went for exercise. It is difficult to find roads where to run but I went to Östa yesterday. I was there quite a lot when I was little. Östa is mostly famous for its never ending fight against mosquitos. Nature is beautiful and it is preserved for future generations.

Water is very clear, cold and fresh. And you can almost feel the stories about “troll” when you are there. It is very beautiful today and I am soon off for more training. Isn´t the photo above breathtaking (reflections of time)?

Thursday evening and tonight I am just relaxing. I believe that it is good to just do nothing to recover. To prepare for next exercise. I have mentioned it before that I am a little jealous of those who are professional within sports. I would like to know how they practice, that is why I watch sports news sometimes. However, now I only have two weeks to go to women´s health running.

Women´s health is a very interesting subject. Men and women are different. That also concerns our health e.g. the occurrence of breast cancer, ovary cancer, PMS, muscle-fat ratios etc. We also think differently even though that is difficult to define. Some people make fun of the female and male brain. That men only have a few things in mind whereas females have a plethora of thoughts. This is a difficult subject because today´s daily life is not really adjusting to this. Maybe because this is so difficult to define and also to talk about. What is definition of female?

All for tonight,

Only a few weeks to go. It feels good to have a goal to aim for. I really hope that it will be a beautiful day. No rain. It is really a delicate balance to get stronger and not get wounded. I don´t run all the time, I do various training. What I have noticed is that stretch is very important, more than I usually do.

I have also noticed that I have gotten more focused. On exercise in general. And it is difficult because I need more exercise than usual to become better, and that demands, in a way more discipline. So, a lot of focus, and to not be distracted.

There is change going on in the air. Allergy season is beginning. Evenings are brighter. Easter is over and it is time to look forward. I have been off writing a few days since I have spent time in the countryside. I am focusing a lot on exercise so I have run and done some walking. It is rather difficult, challenging, to have a life in balance. To have sweets and counterbalance with work out. Weather has been rather bad; rain and wind. Those days are challenging. Just to put the shoes on, not think and just start to run. To think of nothing.

It is a great reward to run. I often get a chance to catch a glimpse of animals in the forest. Lots of deers. Last run I actually counted to a total of nine deers. Not bad. Furthermore, it clears my mind and it is wonderful to get fresh air. Now my feet hurts so I have to be careful.

Please enjoy my first flower signs of winter changing to spring.
