First start at SMR
posted by I Run - Therefore I Blog Hi, I'm Hanne Lyngstad and I write Irunthereforeiblog to inform and teach you who are interested in training and gear. I'm a runner and I raced my first competition in '90. I've liked the individual competition a lot, and now running is my lifestyle. Through my former job at a running specialist store in Oslo, I have learned to appreciate quality gear and equipment. I have learned to distinguish between a good shoe and a not so good. I love seeking the good feelings of training, and hopefully you will enjoy reading about it! |

Then I'm done with my first race at Sognsvann Rundt Medsols (SMR). I ran two laps which is 6,5 km in 23:49. My plan was to start off easy and run faster at the end. Since I've been feeling tired, I wasn't very optimistic today. But running with lots of competitive runners, I took off in 3.16... Sweet! Not really, because I know I can't keep up in that pace for another 5,5 km...
I had company the whole first lap and that helped a lot. Second lap - all by myself and more even in pace...
It's an OK start and I feel I can run much better next time just by pacing myself wiser.
It's finally spring and all the snow is melting down to muddy rivers along Sognsvann and in my own trail path. With my back-kick, my tights are dirty all the way to my back on each run. It's spring-time and this is a good sign!
