Done racing for the season. Time to put on some muscle and get them bigger biceps. For aerodynamic reasons...
I've been slacking off when it comes to strength and conditioning. I'm going to make up for that by actually focusing on s&c.

Finishing up the season - Tampere Juoksee 5km
มุมมอง 2721 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา
I raced my final race for this season. Tampere Juoksee, saturday 5th of October. Really felt like I don't want to go there but also found no real reason not to go. The results were exactly what to be expected after the lackluster training I've been able to do in the past few months. Season 2024 goals!

    Glad you did the run even though you weren't feeling it. I recently have been experiencing foot pain too. Had to have a physio appt and take around two weeks off to get back to normal. If you're not feeling like going for the 5k pb next year then don't. Not worth it if you're not going to enjoy the journey.

    • @janih
      @janih 10 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@swipe87 exactly so. Injuries aside, no point in not going for it. But going for a PB is also a mental thing, so I figured I'd go for something else. Also, I've been focusing on 'just running' for a few years now so both my body and mind feel like the need a change.

      Don't worry about it. I'm usually extremely awkward in these livestreams anyway. And I don't have a set schedule, apart from doing on every sunday. I like the idea, but it might've been more enjoyable had it been not in my home city. A beautiful and interesting route for sure, but I was focused more on getting a benchmark so had a difficult time enjoying it :D

    Running or working out too early isn't great for me personally. By the afternoon, I feel like I haven't done anything because alot of time has passed since the workout. It's weird. I agree with what you said about being too busy as well. If you don't have some time to decompress after the workout, you kind of don't get to enjoy the benefits.

    Thanks for sharing! I like it that Finland is so wise many times. In Sweden we just started to prepare ourselves for potential war or hybrid war stuff that can happen, and they say Finland already got most of these things going. You are already prepared, probably because you live closer to "that" neighbour. Reservists getting in shape is a great idea, it has not been mentioned at all over here. But I think it is a good idea in general to be as fit as one can in case something will happen. Im on the journey to lose weight and get more fit as well, mostly for health and weightloss, but it feels like being in better shape in general is good in case something should happen.

    • @janih
      @janih 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      To be fair, over the past decade or so, we've had talk of budget cuts and perhaps stopping the whole conscript army. Escpecially during the time Sweden changed their system. But yes, it does base on our history and therefore people have been saying this is outdated. To be fair, as with any/all countries, we do have our fair share of problems that could've been solved with the money spent on the defence forces, so there were valid points to those arguments. But now those arguments are few and far between.

      That would be ideal, but unfortunately I don't have the time for that. Also my main goal is to get faster at 5k and 10k, so some of my running workouts (eg. Repeats and intervals) can be quite hard, so I wouldn't even have the energy for a quality lift 😂
