Ready for Vasaloppet

Av Pelle - 28 februari 2009 19:44

Ready to hit the ski tracks tomorrow morning. The temperature is perfect, around -10 to -5 degrees. We have tried the tracks up around Smågan this afternoon and it's fabulous conditions. Now we are hoping for a day tomorrow without any snowfall.

90 kilometers is a looong distance, but as it looks right now, it will be a nice day and I'm happy to just take part. I'm priviliged to have the health and power to do this kind of activities that for sure gives me a feeling of being ALIVE.

My friends here are all Rookies and some of them start to be a bit anxious. The face of David is getting more and more pale. Jörgen has to run to the toilet over and over again. Sven has to stay busy, doing dishes etc to keep his nerves in control. Kristian had to bring his wife as mental support. Micke chickened out from the team activity and cover up by doing the Open version last weekend and is now trying for a second shot with some very suspisious preparations on his own.

The coach stays cool. Experience talks.

Yes, the flu has left my system. It has really helped to empty my body from all kind of energy reserves the last 4-5 days. If I remember correct according to some old body charging theories, it's good to clean out and empty your body, before star...

Time is flying in supersonic speed, so it's good to reflect back now and then, to get a picture of what's happening in life. That's why I now and then take a glimse back in some files to check what was going on the year or years before at...

My cheap chinese copy of "Slumdog Millionaire" was actually very good. Hopeless English subtitles, but that's quite often what you get. In this case half the movie was in Hindi with original English subtitles on the screen so no problems on that ...
