No, hyvältä näyttää tähän mennessä, nimittäin alkuvuodesta tehtiin ihana reissu Bremeniin Markuksen, Heinin, Sannan, Hilkan ja Nikon kanssa. Sen jälkeen Juhannuksena matkalla Sulkavalle telttailtiin Kuopiossa (grande reissu ;) ) jolloin anopille vietävää nauhusta luultiin joksikin polteltavaksi kasviksi :D ja sitten vielä tuo mahtava reissu Äidin ja Isän kanssa Slovenian tippukiviluolaan, Kroatian rannoille ja Plitvicen kansallispuistoon, Itävallan Alpeille ja loppuhuipennukseksi Janinan ja Leonhardin luo Müncheniin! Jepjep, Pekalla on seuraavaksi koriksen EM-reisu puolaan syyskuussa…

About 4 degrees Celsius. We were a little late and couldn’t register anymore, but went running without the number anyway. I wonder if they run out of the numbers and closed the registration little too early. there was about 250 runners, which is quite a lot.

I was positively surprised about my self. It’s been over four months since I ran the marathon in Frankfurt. Since then I think I have ran less than five times. I’ve been only playing floorball three times and went to gym once. That’s all the exercise I’ve done and still I was able to finish 12,5 km with time 1h 0min 49s.

I’m really happy! I think I need start training. There would be a half marathon in Warsaw after two weeks. Quite tempting.

Our nice, cold and snowy winter turned into wet and ugly winter just before their departure, but we had a good time anyway! There was a big market all over the old city. The happening was called Kazuko muge and there was much people and all kinds of stuff for sale!

We rented a car and drove to a farmstead near Panevezys. We also visited the hill of crosses. and saw the geographical center point of Lithuania.

This match was the last of Uleb Cup’s regular season.

It was a great journey indeed! Maria’s choir was placed in gold series and I finished my first marathon. Detailed description will be written over here, when I have time. Meanwhile you can admire the marathon fin(n)ish(Frankfurt Marathon/no. 8120/at the left).
