Four days of running and weight training in nature's own gym..

 ..was all that was needed to build both the mental and physical side of my body. I just LOVE this place on Mother Earth!

Below you can see pictures from my leave in the mountains with comments. This time I will focus on how important the mental part is in the running. Yes, the physical is also very important, but what shall I do with a fit body when I do not dare use it?

How to scientifically doing to get the chemical energy stored in the body in an optimal way to get the forces acting to move us in any direction. Ideally, as with as little energy loss as possible.

That's RUNNING!
Elton on the front of the cottage in the mountains and to the left you can see where I collect my water from the source. Very good water!

Elton on his fur checking things out before our hill-running :-)

Picture taken from the Old Road on my running out in the wilderness.
One lucky runner in the right environment.
Yes, there are moose, reindeer, deer and bear in this area.. ;-)
Poop from bear.
Easy to see because of  last year berries in it.
Well, only thing You can do is to... RUN! :-D
Just after the meeting with a rather large moose
I took a break in the sun by the river and just enjoyed what nature had to offer.
As you can see, it's not exactly like running on a running track.
It's called the virgin forest!
When running in places like this You´re not ONLY exercise physically
but also MENTALLY.

This is just a couple of km from where I ran  the day before.
Mr Bear came to say Hello! ;-)
(zoom and You´ll see)
After my runnings I always light up the sauna and relax a bit.
Yes, it´s a little snow there on the ground

Some of the roughly 150 year old farm right
next to the little cottage I live in when I'm in the mountains and runs :-)
A great view from the local area.

Right: Well, profit after having played a little bit with my chainsaw ;-)


Flexirun happy in the gym!
 I´ve said it before and I will keep on saying it. Try a smile and a Hello! to the one You meet!

Easy, Light and Smooth!
