Countdown: 2 1/2 day to departure
Posted on January 4, 2010
I’m sitting in the train writing this blog entry. I’m on my way back to the hustling and bustling city of Copenhagen. It’s a 4 1/2 hour drive.
The next two days are completely planned out. Tomorrow I need to be unpacking and packing again. I want to be prepared well ahead of time. There’s always something missing that you need to buy. If that’s the case I’ll still have time to get it.
I have a work-out appointment with my best friend Fenja and another appointment for the hairdresser as well. Oh, and I need to pass by the exchange bureau as well. The currency there is Argentinian pesos, but I’ve been advised to bring US dollars.
When I was at the Military training facility most of my nails broke, but I’m definitely not going to get artificial nails. They look pretty but they will be in the way on the obstacle course and most likely break. I came to think of that because I just watched a Wipeout clip on youtube of a go-go dancer who had a very nice french manicure. When she was at the end of the course she screamed: “I lost my nail”. I thought that was hilarious. She was so bummed about it!
Wednesday I’m going to see my massage therapist and finish the packing. I plan on taking wednesday and thursday off from training as I want to be rested for friday on the obstacle course.
I didn’t do any weight training today. I felt my body was overtrained and decided just to do some cardio. I did 15min of running on the treadmill in a good pace(12,5). Then 3 sprint intervals. 1min on 20, 1min on 20 and 1min. 15sec on 18. Then stretching for 30 min and some stability exercises. Now I can stand on the ball with no problems... when will I have the guts to jump up on it from the floor? I want to be able to do that!!
