10° celsius. partly sunny but windy. 17:38 (0:59:57)

today was the first day that i sat on my bike. it was still cold outside but the wind made everything worse. anyway, the bicycle's tires were totally flat - i guess that happened when the bicycle was stowed away in the garage for too long. so i pumped and pumped and pumped the tires till it got really hard. really? well, that wasn't the case cos the rear tire didn't. unfortunately i only realised that after i cycled a few hundred meters and had to go back to put the bicycle away again! nevertheless it was good to be back on the saddle.

next i went to put on my running gears and zoomed off towards the alster. i wanted to do some tempo, meaning running relatively fast so that i could go for my next training. as usual i took my normal route and started only to do the warm-up exercise when i was at the alster. it was windy though. i tried to do my best running "quickly" at the start cos this is my weakest point. i could not start fast! so i had to start steadily and faster than my normal rhythm. i must be crazy enough to do this cos after sunday's 30 km run i was quite tired already. nevertheless the will to go fast was there and the thought that i would be missing my tuesday indoor training was "unbearable". so making the alsterrunde, i warmed down and ran back "slowly". the time was too short though. i decided to stop running and took the u-bahn (metro) for the last stretch. hey, i need to take shower before i go to the next training.

i came slightly late cos i missed the damn bus. the trainer wasn't there but someone else took over. after the mandatory warmed-up running of 5 rounds on the outside lane of the 200 m track, we played football as a substitute for short but intensive running. again, i wasn't a footballer and i was really terrible at it. nonetheless i did score 1 of the 2 goals for my team! next in the programme was some coordination running + jumping (frankly speaking i didn't know what it is called but i just did it). within a certain distance we had to jump as high as possible and at the same time moving forward. the person who had the least number of this jumping won. and i did. it took me 16 steps while the rest had 18 or more. few sprint training and a 4x50 meters relay were next. i was so exhausted at the end of the day and wonder if everything was okay.
