This weekend has been pretty productive training-wise. I ran on both Saturday and Sunday! 12.5 km on Sat and 11 km on Sunday. Both days on packed snow in Kabaty forest. While I love running on snow, it does have the effect of slowing me down so that my times are nothing to brag about. Plus, since I haven't been running outside in a while, I did get some muscle aches. But I've been wearing my recovery compression pants for the rest of the day so hopefully tomorrow it will all be gone... Today I was a bit chilly too - been trying to warm myself up for the rest of the afternoon. Tomorrow will be a rest day for sure! It was interesting to watch people cross-country skiing in the forest. It's amazing how slow they are! Technically it's a fairly fast snow but I was faster than most of them (only 1 guy managed to get passed me and another one started racing me - I won :))
I think I may treat myself to new running shoes tomorrow - Asics trail runners. As the weather will inevitably start getting warmer I need something that won't get soaked through too fast. While the Salomons I've been running in now are OK on snow, they can't handle spring in the forest too well.
We've managed to get to Ikea today - how I love that store! Finally got some CD shelves so that we can start getting more and more organized!
