Backbana. Some days you have it, and some days you don't. Today fell into the latter category. Right from the start my legs felt really heavy, and i didn't have much energy - possibly because of skipping dinner last night. I struggled through a lap of backbana with Jan Troeng, Pal Skogtjarn, and Rob (as we started, i thought to myself: what business do i have training with these guys??? Two Swedish B-team members, and the 24th best middle distance runner from WOC! Somehow, i didn't feel like i belonged. But i suppose that's something i really like about our club - even the very best runners are very welcoming and happy to train with the likes of me. Pretty cool.) The ankle brace started giving me a blister on the inside of my foot on the downhills, i took it off after one lap, tried starting a second one, but just felt pretty weak and decided to stop. I felt lame doing it, especially as it was a pleasure to be out on this fine sunny, crispy winter day, but i don't think it's wise to be running up and down very steep hills with bad footing with a crappy ankle after taking the brace off...
Innebandy 1:00:00 [4]
Played innebandy in the evening with Jan, Joffe, Johan Hoij, and a few non-orienteers. Lots of fun, all the sprinting back and forth really gets your heart rate up! Too bad i am terrible at it.
