Running - Reloaded

I have registered for a race in September:

Barmer Frauenlauf München

The following Monday I have a work related event there anyway, so I decided to sign up and be a pink girl for once. Now let's hope I can run 5K again by then without my heel complaining the next day too much.

Day off

I took a day off from work yesterday. As it was nice I went for a run. Weeeeell: not much running, though some, but felt like crap. Went to the pharmacy to get an iron supplement, but will have to go to the doc, especially since my hand is still tingly.

Walking with a little bit of running

On Saturday I walked in the afternoon while the weather was holding: 6,77km according to my Runtastic App. I had intended to run more than I did, but after such a long pause it was good to get started at all. I will run each weekend as that seems to be the only daylight if I do not bring my running stuff to work and that feels weird at this moment in time.

Weekend Recap

It seems right now I only run about 6 km each weekend and not in between. For the moment I am okay with this though I would love to add one more run during the week. But for the moment stabilizing the one run a week is more important. Especially since Tai Chi starts up again this week and the indoor pool has opened again, so my Thursday swim can restart too.

I knit quite a bit on one of my current shawls. With the weather turning towards fall shawls are calling to me. I did not finish it, but hopefully this week will see me to the end of the Star Ramble.

With the cooler air food preferences change and we had Spätzle with mushrooms and maroni and I see pumpkin in our near future. Yam!

Sunday Run Recap

6.22 km walking and jogging. That is fine. It was quite humid for us, so my head felt like it would explode at the end. I probably did not drink enough, so that needs improvement for the next weekend.

And I need to figure out when I can do a second run in the week. MyGuy still needs transportation after his eye surgery, but that is not a real reason, just an excuse.

Looking forward to the 20th when Qi Gong will start again, however need to dig out my book and start practicing again. That will be Tuesday evening's activity for the next months.

First Run in a long time

From Runtastic.

Just a note

I didn't go for a run yesterday, but went to do some errands on the bike, so got some km in.

Ouchish

Since I did my elevated knee push ups on Sunday my shoulder is complaining. Stupid thing is I am not sure why as I was not pushing myself all that hard and had done other exercises before, so should not have been "cold". Oh well. I plan to go for a run this evening, if I get out early enough to pick up my stuff at the pharmacy and tea shop in town before that.

Rhyfall

As there was a lot of rain the last couple of weeks and the snow is still melting in the mountains the Rhine Falls in Neuhausen had a lot of water and it looked quite impressive.

There is a statue to remember the first aluminium production in Switzerland. I used to work in Schaffhausen and go for walks during my lunch break along the Rhine. In a bout of nostalgia I decided to run the path from the Rhine falls to the Munot. After weaving my way through the tourists at the falls I started running and for the most part I was able to run up to the spot where the bridge crosses below the munot. There were a few breaks due to crossing the Rhine on a bridge and ups and downs (which my knee prefers for me to walk rather than jog), but overall I ran. Happy! Up on the Munot I met up with MyGuy who had been happily taking photos of the lovely roses in bloom up there.
