Obsessed with the marathon training schedule.

Being sick during training, or missing runs can feel like the end of the world to many of us.  The running schedule is not a lenient creature, it glares at us in disdain every time we cannot add a tick to a day, or plug in our miles or transfer data to it from our […]

Music for your workout or any other time.

  Very often, I like to have a drink while writing.  I don´t always drink while I write.  For example, at work I do most of my writing alcohol free.  However, I do think it is a bit of a misfortune that I drink while writing a blog about running and health issues.  So, to alleviate […]

BIKERNIEKU HALF MARATHON 27 APRIL 2014

Taking place three weeks before the Riga Marathon, this is a great way to test how much you have progressed in your training.  There are several distances you can participate in.  If you are planning on running the Marathon in May, then give a try at the half marathon.  I wouldn’t go all out on this race […]
