First and hopefully not last 15 km 🏃 I wasn’t actually fast (1:45 hrs) and extremely tired afterwards.

Tomorrow I’ll try to reach my daily distance goal of 🏃 15 km per day, and keep it there while my body slowly adjusts to the training load. Today I was tired an hour in, which was an improvement over yesterday.

Shoo, git, scram…ble. Or s’mthing 🤷

🏃 13 km in slightly less than 90 minutes. I tried a different route, hoping it was longer. Alas, almost the same distance. So I had to make an additional loop to make it thirteen full thousand meters, with legs already tired after 30 minutes of running. Tomorrow will be 14 km.

It is kind of frustrating that a blogpost, read in less than five minutes, takes many hours to write, especially if only 40 (or less) people will be reading it, and maintaining it costs €70/yr, or €1.40 per post, especially now that there have been no races for me to compete in.

I get that people get excited over vaccinations. However, it’s not a cure, and doesn’t protect 100%. So, hand washing, social distancing, and wearing masks in public places remain essential to protect the weakest. After vaccination measures can be relaxed, but won’t disappear.

Mechanics keep our world working.

Another consecutive 🏃 day. After yestday’s “speed” I had to moderate today’s slightly. After 12.5 km I was pretty tired and stiff, remedied by some stretching. My current goal is daily 15 km runs at an easy pace by the end of April, which shouldn’t be much of a problem, I guess.

The prompt for the Sketch a Day app was exam. My experiences with exams are generally negative, especially preparing for it, and only needing a fraction to pass. I remember nothing of what I’ve learned. A good thing, since most of it was later proven factual wrong.

I went for a run, and today I ran almost 1.5 km farther in 75 minutes than yesterday. Still not in shape, though, because that’s still 3.5 km more in the same amount of time, or 30% faster than I went today. Obviously, I still have a long way to go to get back into shape.
