I decided to start up my Ironman training tonight, after getting my Tacx cycle trainer back from Kristian S, who has used it over the last two seasons and also getting some inspiration from Sinus, who did a 8 hour spinning session at home this weekend while watching Ironman Hawaii on internet (he also ran the ½marathon earlier the same day), puuuh looong sentence ...  but lots of quality content. My target is Kalmar on August 1 next year.

So I organized a bit in the garage and mounted my good old Eddy Mercx bike on the Tacx trainer and took a 30 min workout. It's actually very good aerobic training and it felt like good value for the time invested. Also nice to be able to do some more alternative training. I believe that this is good for my poor achilles tendons. Hopefully they will be better if I mix in a couple of biking sessions each week over the winter period. Before next time I will install a music system in the garage, so I can enjoy it more. Otherwise, it's a bit of a mind killer to sit there in our messy garage all alone. There's no scenary, no downhill, no drafting, no resting, just pushing, pushing, pushing and lots of sweating.

Ready to hit the ski tracks tomorrow morning. The temperature is perfect, around -10 to -5 degrees. We have tried the tracks up around Smågan this afternoon and it's fabulous conditions. Now we are hoping for a day tomorrow without any snowfall. ...

Yes, the flu has left my system. It has really helped to empty my body from all kind of energy reserves the last 4-5 days. If I remember correct according to some old body charging theories, it's good to clean out and empty your body, before star...

Time is flying in supersonic speed, so it's good to reflect back now and then, to get a picture of what's happening in life. That's why I now and then take a glimse back in some files to check what was going on the year or years before at...
