I went running this morning! Five months ago I would have never thought that I would miss running so much, but now I’ve been injured for two weeks and I’ve been going stir-crazy :-S But this morning I ventured out for 2.2 km to test my leg and it went fine. I probably wont be [...]

Stupid leg As I wrote a couple of days ago I’m injured. At first I thought it was just a small muscle rupture at the side of my leg, but now I believe that it’s a full-on shin splint! I tried biking this evening and could hardly get anywhere before it started hurting like crazy. [...]

Just have to share these with you. Little pieces of (food)heaven… Cup-cake sized muffins with whole-wheat flour, bacon, gouda, spring onion, garlic, lemon and rosemary – what’s not to like! They are made from something like this: 3 dl wholegrain flour (a mix of rye, spelt and wheat) 1 large sprig of rosemary, finely chopped [...]

I can’t believe how much I’ve missed yoga! I’ve been neglecting it the past weeks since I’ve been running quite a lot and focusing on that. But yesterday I stepped onto my mat and simply couldn’t get enough. Down dog was my favourite and I kept returning for just one more minute in it It [...]

I injured myself running from a rainstorm on Thursday which means that I haven’t been able to have my weekend-runs this week I’ve missed them, as I love to get up in the morning and do a long Saturday run before breakfast and then a shorter one on Sunday afternoon. But this weekend it had [...]
Keeping up my zen rituals

I’ve been really busy at work lately, working 9+ hours a day plus some weekend days. I love my work but I can feel that it’s been a bit too much. So I’ve focused a lot on keeping the zen rituals in my life that I implemented during my days of severe stress. And also [...]
Feeling distant

Sometimes my brain gets overstimulated. It feels like I’ve used it too much, and suddenly I can’t seem to get in contact with my body. I can’t feel the physical love for my husband, I eat when I’m not hungry, I go to bed too late at night and wake up with a feeling of [...]
Inseparable (my running gadgets)

I can’t remember if I’ve shown you this before, but I just wanted to share my gadgets for running – we are all inseparable I tell you! Gadget no 1: My iPod! I have to have music when running. I know that some people say that they get more out of running when they can [...]

Today was one of those days… Woke up this morning after my alarm had been ringing for 5 minutes – I usually ALWAYS wake up at the first beep! I’ve been tossing and turning all night and I just felt like going back to bed. Was kinda cranky at work, tired and had lots to [...]
