Quarter Marathon and 5k in 7 days! 



In the last 10 days quite a lot things happened by me. On 18th August I was competing in a quarter Marathon in Carinthia.


My running time for the distance of 10.55k was 44 minutes 19 seconds. 

4:16/k average speed 14.04 km/h

I think the race was quite ok. I didn't run the fastest possible but quite steady. As I had another competition on 25th August I wanted to save some energy for that run.


Unfortunately I didn't do so well in 5k. Had a time of 20:30 minutes, so it's also just ok. I already ran faster than that almost 2 minutes so I am not quite sure why I couldn't speed up more. Guess maybe the grit I was running on was making me slower and took away more energy than expected. But I am not sure, maybe I was also just taking the first 2.5 k to slow. Had a time of 10:35 for the first 2.5 and then accelerated, took me another 9:55 for the other 2.5k.


Yea but all together it was actually a quite nice run.


So the next competition might be in 2 weeks, I am not sure now if I will participate cause it's just a 4.2k and it's stupid to compare other races I run with that distance. Let's see.


Here are two fotos of me:

By the way, I am the guy on the left side with the yellow shor!;)


Please let me know about your running experience. Would really be happy to hearing from you.

Hey everybody!


So today I went on a run again. Not much to say. I wasnt really lazy in the last days but was always out with friends or at my families place at night so it was hard to find a silent minute to hit the road. Among that, we have right now 38 degrees and it's still hot at night. Nevertheless I went running today at night.


Took the 6k distance again, because running up the hill seemed to exhausting.

The 6k went quite ok. At the middle of the lap I had to take out a bit speed but ran it with a 4:25/k so actually quite ok if you think about the weather;)

I am not sure if I go running tomorrow as I am planning to meet some friends at night.


So, a few guys are always reading my blog, I would be interested if you also would let me know about your running attitude, Maybe we could push each other to the limit or just motivate us on a regular basis.


Would be so happy to hear from you!!!

Hey,

So I have been resting for a few days now because I had some pain in my left calf. Guess it's because I have been running 55 kilometers last week. My body is just not use to this exaustion.


Yesterday I made my first run again. An easy 6k run. Didn't look onto my watch. Guess I ran 4:30/k, whats quite ok. It's lovely here right now because it's very warm. Today we have 35 degrees.


So what I wanted to tell you. I have recognized that sometimes when I run I get stiches and I have to slow down my speed although I actually know that I could run them faster. My muscles are not saw or anything alike...it's just the stiches which slow me down.


I am actually not quite sure why I am exactly getting these but I guess it has to do with insufficient air in my lounges. Would be happy if somebody else could give his insights on how to get rid of these stiches during running.


See you guys
