  • Exercise status and other

    A few years ago, I wrote my own, private, training diary. First of all, I noted my daily form for the day. I am not 100% fit every day. Today´s training was tough since I was so exhausted last time. I am making progress though. My breathing has improved. I do have time to think about something other than how bad my breathing is. Today, I remembered when I started jogging regularly. That was in Norway at Kråkerøy. A friend of mine and myself were registered for  “Midnattsloppet” in Gothenburg. At that time I also had a basic level of fitness. However, I noticed that I lacked a lot of energy. I had several nice, slow and heavy runs at Kråkerøy.

    A few weeks ago my ID was hacked. All I can say is that it has been tough. To do something, I have renewed my driving license, which was 10 years old. I also have a new national ID card. Previously, you had to show your ear when taking a picture. Now you  have to look very serious. No smile at all.

    The train service in France (TGV) was canceled on the day the Olympics were inaugurated in Paris. Today the Olympics are ongoing and everything is in order again. Sometimes there are also attacks on authorities in Sweden. Internet attacks are only accepted. No one says anything about what is causing it. Should we just go ahead and pretend like it is raining?

  • Boil water

    Authorities in Sweden rarely recommend people to boil their drinking water. However, this is now recommended at Lidingö. Precautions will prevail until the water analysis shows good values ​​again. I searched for recommendations in the city of Stockholm, but there is only advice against swimming in certain bathing areas.

    Yesterday was the opening of the 2024 Olympics in Paris. I am thrilled to see the boats with competitors from all the countries of the world gliding along the river Seine through Paris. Notre Dame is still under construction after the great fire. Lady Gaga sang at the beginning of the opening ceremony. Later, Snoop Dogg got to carry the Olympic torch a bit before the Olympic flame was lit https://olympics.com/en/paris-2024/olympic-torch-relay/stages/relay-in-greece . Thank you, Greece for the wonderful Olympic traditions where sports and history can meet and unite.

    I struggle with exercise and currently, I find it quite difficult. At the same time, however, I know that it is at this point that you improve strength and fitness. Tomorrow, if weather permitting, I will go jogging again. I am careful with stretching to reduce the risk of inflammation in the muscles. My muscle memory, running memory, is still there. I charge all the positive energy needed to resist ID hacking.
