We have
had fantastic weather
during almost all of
the training camp. Sun,
sun, sun and nice and
warm. It has been more
windy than the years
before, but it hasn't
had any influence on
our training. We have
done a lot of good training
up here and both Erik
and I have been able
to do all the training
Stephan planned for
us. My legs were very
tired last week, but
I managed to take it
easy during training
on Thursday and Friday
and then I was ready
for hard and long training
again. In St.Moritz
we are lucky to be able
to do cold "baths"
in the river Inn, it
is good for my legs
when I am tired or if
I feel that a muscle
or tendon is a little
sore. As you can see
on the picture below
it is very cold!!! This
week I have been running
twice, only 30 min each
time and on the grass,
but I am very happy
to run again! On Wednesday
I was very happy that
Peter Korcok and Matej
Toth from Slovakia,
had an easy workout
and therefore I could
train together with
them during my whole
20km workout.
The good
and warm weather is
not just good for training.
It's also good for barbecuing!
In and around St.Moritz
there are a lot of nice
places to barbeque.
We had a nice evening
at the Lej Marsj together
with German athletes
and coaches. This was
one of the few evenings
without soccer on TV,
almost all other days
we were busy watching
the games from the Soccer
World Cup or the Track
and Field European Cup.
Many athletes came together
for public viewing at
the Hotel Laudinella!
In two
days we are going back
home to Norway. It has
been a very good training
camp!
