Observations:
  • It's tough to run in the snow. It's tougher to run in the solid snow. It's absolutely grueling to run in the hard snow that breaks just as you take a step.
Pros:
  • I thought that Friday's super heavy route for the muscles would slow down today's run, but no, it was really OK to run.
Cons:
  • Snowy trails in the fores were in a terrible condition: deep, narrow and bumpy, and snow was solid.

This time my goal was to run 10 kilometers under one hour. Otherwise an easy goal, except the route went through forests and fields. Goal achieved anyway!

Observations:
  • Average speed easily drops down when you are running in a snowy field or meadow, but just keep up the speed. It's not that hard.
Pros:
  • Smooth weather. Zero degrees.
Cons:
  • Uneven, snowy platform.

I was about to run an easy six kilometers route after the previous day’s 30 kilometers route, but because I felt so good, the weather was fine and the route in the forest was nice, I decided to make it a bit longer.

Categories Run
Observations:
  • Running with longer steps is good for the hip pain.
  • Stretching is good for the knee pain.
Pros:
  • Nice route in a snowy forest.
Cons:
  • Some minor feelings in my left knee and right side of the hip.
