Mental workout with Motivator

I wanted to achieve something this year, running bio. Well, actually ...



In the fall of 2008, I made plans for my 2009 season. It should be a run-year and at the Vienna Marathon, I had the 3 hours magical mark in his sights. Maybe not among them, but at least close. And on the way there would still reach old goals, such as the sub 1:30 half marathon and 10km run sub 40 minutes.

The training plan was from the book "Marathon - The best programs" by Runner's World, is designed for 12 weeks and sizes up to 100km. I knew that it is hard, but with the fundamentals of recent years and several Long Jogs in the fall and winter, it should go somehow. That was a mistake, because after 3 weeks I had calves like stone. Everything was too much: too many units per week to high volumes in the first place and the fast intervals! I saw that it was pointless because I too little basis had. The training was shut down totally and the calves loosened up again. The marathon should be a loose run in which I wanted to motivation for future (Hero) collect deeds.

and a half weeks prior to the then-X: In the gym in the sauna, I got stuck with a toe between the boards of the bench and - snap - it was broken or at least pretty sprained. The violet staining the next day did not bode well, although the pain held in check. Since it was a little better every day, I gave up a medical treatment. In a test run 3 days before the marathon, but every step hurt, but just not so much that they forced to close is. So I wanted to run the marathon in any case, but also attracted consider exit when it should be too bad.

from the start it was very relaxed and less painful than expected. On the Lasallestraße I moved to the left side, because there were fewer people. After Stephan's, I realized that I went through the page break about 200m abbreviated unintentionally. A kilometer later it hit me like lightning: Should have been on the right side Praterstern a timing mat be, I would now be disqualified. With the idea in mind, it is not particularly and unfortunately I did not come up with the idea to ask other participants for the mat.

made at kilometer 10, a huge bubble in the left footpad noticeable, although the running shoes were already worn in and never made problems. From then really hurt each step. Hunger has sometimes taken, bananas were not available until at km 15 - so great, even a small bonking. The half marathon should really have been enough, but stupid as iron men are such a task is not an option.

gets slower every time I arrived at km 30 Christian (Mav), who accompanied me, well, the frequent walking breaks quickly tried to persuade to quit. He also confirmed that I'm still in the standings. John accompanied us a piece with the wheel and took photos. Adopted at the opera, Christian and I replaced him against the pledge made to go through the remaining 500-behaved. 3:55:21 net time.

It was my slowest (normal) Marathon, two days later, I still can not walk properly - a nice mix of a broken toe, huge and empty bladder muscles - but it was good. The will, despite the circumstances not to give up will help me secure in future races, although I imagine at the moment can not flay me to resume shortly.

Many thanks to Christian! Without his verbal nudge, I would have quite a few minutes left on the asphalt.

Abscess In The Soft Pallett

All rights

The weather is beautiful, many exits are on the program and a number of myths have grown up around what is allowed by cycle, and what does not. It is now over, because I have made myself smart!

protection - Highway Code § 66 (cycle regulation)

bikes need only two brakes and lighting as is required by the view - from. All the rest (bell, reflectors, front, rear, on the pedals and wheels) need only "normal" wheels. Unlike a road bike must have: weight of the bike up. 12 kg, drop bars, outer rim diameter of at least 630 mm and outside rim width höchstens 23 mm. Ie mountain bikes need to wear protective gear.

use of bicycles - Highway Code § 65

If the time who needs (possibly on the sidewalk): who pushes a bicycle is not considered as cyclists.

behavior of cyclists - Highway Code § 68

bike paths are a very important issue: When to use "training runs with racing bikes" May the "cycling facility". That is, a cycle path beside the road, I use this not the road bike. The definition of racing bikes is up to the training runs is nothing in the law. I'd put road bike + helmet + sports clothes (+ speed) = training ride. In other wheels of the bike path MUST be used where there are exceptions (wide trailers, multi-track wheels).

We must at rides with race wheels on bike paths and public roads run side by side. In this case, only the extreme right lane to be used. There is nothing like a minimum group size in the law. That is to ride for two in a row on the road is not without its dangers, but allowed.

Driving on pavements and sidewalks with bikes in the longitudinal direction is prohibited. Eh clear! Theoretically, I should pass the law but the sidewalk with the bike.

following is prohibited: Freehand To drive to remove the feet during the drive from the pedals to attach a bicycle to another vehicle to be drawn from using bicycles in a non-traffic-described type, carousel driver, for example, is betting driving, etc. The question whether the latter excludes the town sign sprints. ;-)

I hope the little digression has cleared up rumors and helps with the argument with our friends and supporters.
